any update on this?

elder abuse?

I called on Friday afternoon. I told the guard the story and was told that if it's her money she can do that if she wants. I said I understood that entirely but it felt like something was going on, I did use the phrase "elder abuse" and fraud as well. Only then did they say to give them the license number and they were about to hang up when I said that by the way it was x branch in y town.

Felt a little fobbed off TBH but my conscience is clear that I at least tried to help out if something is up.

a functioning "mark as read" would be helpful

it does work, just not properly/immediately. if you reload the page the offending thread should be flagged as read. I'll see if i can fix it....

For the last few months, I've taken to getting up early so I can take my dog to the local lake and let him run around. It has become the highlight of my day. As he runs around, I take a few minutes to just stand, observe the season changing and listen to the birds, and appreciate the stillness. I frequently whip out my Merlin app to identify unknown bird calls. It is all very peaceful and pleasant.

Now, a couple of bastard swans have set up a nest on the walkway, without any consultation or consideration for me and my dog.

I'm thinking of starting a petition to send to my local council.

I think we should just admit to ourselves, as a society, that swans are bastards.

 

[therealjohnny]

I asked them to account for themselves. But they're Mute swans.

 

[ann post]

I suppose you'll have to just go down and Lír at them

 

[Cornu Ammonis]

I’m a fan of swans and I will whoop in support of their new habitat.

Absolute fucking cunts. I hate them

TRY IT NOW

Someone stole my 21mm spanner. Perhaps I misplaced it, but I'm more than 90% sure that guy took it. And I know which guy it was. And that goon wouldn't know a scaff clamp from a cheeseborough. Not that I do either, but that's not the point. I need this specific tool and he doesn't.

This happened days ago and it's still on my mind, so it is worthy of chronicle.

A single spanner costs about the same as a whole set. I don't need a whole set. Annoyed and let down by assholes.

 

[magicbastarder]

What a spanner.

 

[seanc]

If only he understood that I am not actually a millionaire, nor have a company credit card, which is a common misconception with these lads.

He has (afaik) two perfectly good wanking spanners on the end of his wrists, and here he is stealing my misery spanner.

heart wrenching

 

[magicbastarder]

Maybe you just need to torque to him to explain why he can't just take them.

 

[Cormcolash]

THAT'S NOT A PUN

Crank up the pressure on him

I actually like Gira and Jarboe's early stuff but they were a bit loud.

 

[magicbastarder]

Crank up the pressure on him

What happens if he goes nuts though?
