Aye they're not the best police in the world. If I go to spain I always get the ground early, no messing about and straight in.

Homemade crumble?

HID made one over the weekend from apples we picked (with permission) from apple trees around the course. Blooming lovely with fresh home made custard

Yeah, homemade .................................. but by Mrs Slime.
I couldn't convince her to drop a few sprouts in, which was a shame. :eek:
 
You hear of an ex-serviceman that's fallen on hard times. He loses his business and his house. He's begging outside the local supermarket and living rough. As it filters around the local community, as per usual over here FB goes ballistic. FB over here is predominantly used for information sharing - there is an FB arguments page where anything goes but the local community pages are heavily moderated.

Within 12 hours he has a roof over his head, and within 24 hrs he has a decent job offer. Earlier on FB there was a photo taken of him with his new employer. New hair cut, clean shaven and new clothes. And a grin as wide as the Grand Canyon!

The expat community over here is very close.

And a quick mention to Pauldj for his advice...(y)

This really makes me happy hearing that a former serviceman has received such generous help. Especially on the same day we hear that a guy from 2 Para has lost his life in Kabul, it shows there arw still many people that care about what they do for everyone. I doff my own beret to all those that helped this man ?
