I guess it depends on how well you know the neighbours but I'd probably have gone that route and fck them if they can't take a joke.

One hard tug broke the lock surprisingly so doubt it caused much of a commotion at all.Profit before people.

Anyone watch Bandersnatch yet? I got about an hour in, dozed off for about 10 mins and ruined it. Can't go back to where i was, so need to rewatch it.
I was writing down all my choices just to see how it compares, so can either copy it again completely or go down a different route. Decisions

So true.
Dragged myself out of bed this morning to go do parkrun just so my body would know it's a Saturday.
Supping pints in Mulligans now after a couple in Bowes. Thanks to Denny & Dice for those particular recommendations. Will hit up other people's in time.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

Much better second half. First half was too much self-inflicted damage to come back from even though they had a good go of it.
The intercept was unfortunately as telegraphed as it could have been. I'm a big fan of Frawley so don't care too much about it, he'll bounce back, but it was never ever on there.

a briefing note, marked ‘confidential’, which was taken after an official from the Irish Embassy had a lunch meeting with Ian Gow, the outspoken Conservative party MP and the UK’s Attorney General Sir Michael Havers.
Mr Havers, a World War II veteran was a Conservative MP from 1970 to 1987. He had a lengthy legal career where he was Attorney General before he became Lord Chancellor.
When Mr Havers met the Irish Government official and Mr Gow at the lunch in London he told a most bizarre story.
The document dated 1987, but released today, stated: "Havers said that when he came out of the anaesthetic after his heart operation (his wife and surgeons were there) he immediately shouted: ‘We must Kill Paisley!’
He cannot explain it. He said, ‘wouldn’t it confirm everything Paisley accuses us of?’"Turning millions into thousands

I still miss it a bit. Mostly for tiny odds and ends that admittedly couldn't be viable as a business model.
Most recent example was wanting to buy a 'carriage bolt' to replace a worn one on my saxophone stand. Not only did I have to find out what such a bolt was called, but I also had to get out my vernier calipers to measure it correctly, and then wait 2 weeks for it to arrive from China via ebay. Back in the day you'd bring the worn one around to the hardware store and they'd find a suitable replacement for you.Gone full 'Glinner' since June 2022.

Went round to Churchtown Stores last year for a fireguard and tray. In my naivety didnt realise they weren't standard issue, on seeing my blank response to the sizing question, one of the venerable gentlemen behind the counter asked what street and number the house was. Ah that was one of the xyz ones built in the 50s it will be a abc one he needs, there are some near the fence posts.Low fee Euro/UK money transfer, 1st transfer free through my referral

Just in the interest of a flip side.
A few years ago I went up to the counter of my local hardware shop with €8.50 worth of stuff.
Owner said he can't accept my card as the bank have a minimum limit of €10 set on his machine.
Rather than buy something for €1.50 I handed the lying cunt his stuff back and went to Woodies.
Have never went back.
Miserable bastard not understanding that the 40c charge he incurrs means he doesn't have to secure my cash or visit the bank with it.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that
