I edited the kid out in the last one but it was a council classic of that stupid headband thing they all seem to wear.
Time stood still but legs remained opened.

Here is a wonderful scene from a British street

This fella had teeth on a lead and a snake on his head

You’ll have to zoom in to see / believe me

The council bit was it was bloody cold which I’m assuming is not great for a snake?

Just catching up with this thread. But the old lady with the crocodile head is on another level. yikes

I can't see a problem. I know a lady in her 70's who is seeing a chap in his 30's. I have never seen them so happy.

Planning a baby at 16

https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-50373942

At 27 weeks, her waters broke far earlier than expected, months before her due date. "I went to the toilet in McDonalds and I thought 'that actually didn't feel like I was weeing'.

17-year-old Eden moved out of her mum's house and lived in a privately rented home close by, which she paid for with housing benefit.

"It's about independence and showing that you can be independent," she says.

That's it, fully independent, no help from anybody, except the "bennyfitz".

Waters breaking in dirty Donalds. COUNCIL!

It’s Sleaford, they look very similar, you do the sums.

She's named the kid 'Parker Devon Drew Tonner'.

You tax contributions working hard, folks!

Worse, it's Anwick which getting into the fens, proper 6 fingers (total or per hand) marry your sister territory.

We are being council, put the lights on the big Rhododendron in the front garden last weekend.

Not much to do with Christmas, its mainly as got the kids coming home, one of them has a birthday and its grim out so a load of brightly coloured lights outside is very welcoming.
Depends whether it’s a ponticum or not. Ponticum = council. More than likely your local Council invasive species removal squad (is that a thing?).
This is it,




It was a straggly tiny thing when we moved in, now a bit fuller than that photo with some selective pruning, becomes our outside tree each year, neighbour always says how much she loves it so its got earlier.

Though, part of me wishes I had pulled it out twenty years ago as it has cost me a car parking space biggrin

Up our street there is a Greenwich Meridian Timothy. Or GMT as he is known locally.

I have a silly ongoing ambition to put 5 clocks on the wall here in the office, all reading the same time, marked with the names of 5 random no-mark places within 5 miles of here.

Not ponticum so the council aspect is limited to Christmas lights being up in November! judge

That's excellent repurposing of a (presumably) non-working clock.

Not non-working; in a council abode, rather a clock simply whose battery has expired.
