They remind me of a sign I saw in Burma:


"Be Kind To Animals By Not Eating Them".

There is a notice pinned to a front door in Goodrich Road. At a strange angle, despite being pinned top and bottom.


After the usual "No circulars, no takeaway leaflets, no breathing within a mile of my front door", it says "No doorstop sellers."


Doorstop sellers? Anybody spotted people with very strong arms knocking on doors round here, laden with doorstops? :))


Oh, and I found this in my inbox this morning:


"Dear Sue ,


Congratulations!


You are our possible winner of 1,000 cans of your favourite soda!


confirm here"


Unmissable opportunity, eh? I particularly like the "possible".

Yeh, and I threw in my bank details and passwords too, just in case they needed them :))


ETA: And I've cleared out all my cupboards, so I have somewhere to store the cans :))

    • Having a BBQ this weekend (wit no BBQ) and have a lot of guests expecting some sizzling food which may potentially not happen if there’s no way to sizzle.  Open to renting for the day, picking up returning (with a thorough clean) or alternatively if anyone is selling for cheap.
    • Its usually 1 to 2 %. Say it's 2% and a house sells for £1million, the agency takes £20,000. The induvial selling the house might be eligible for £2,000 commission from that.  If the gazunderer bring s the price down to £950,000, the agency takes £19,000 and the individual gets £1,900 commission.  In those circumstances they don't care if you lose £50,000. They are only out of pocket by £100.
    • Just to note (as someone who has regularly travelled across France by train from London) that SNCF and Eurostar are very good at sorting out situations when trains have been delayed. If an SNCF train is delayed, the conductor will invite people to get their tickets stamped if they have an onward Eurostar. I've been late to Eurostar on numerous occasions and they've just put me on the next service. Mostly they've already been aware of SNCF delays. Ditto when I told the TGV staff that my Eurostar was late, they just told me to board and they would help me find a seat. Delays are common and they have procedures in place to handle them in both directions. I've always been pleasantly surprised by how simple it's been.  Also, definitely agree with QueenMab re first class seats on the French TGV trains. They are spacious and relaxing and when my son was under 5, he could have his own ticket/seat for just 9 euros.
