Was Toc H mobile canteen part of NAAFI?

Chris Barker collection. Any relation to Peter Barker? {Lex }

Been in there Pete, tried to get a warm bed when i was homeless { oh the good old days }

Lots of happy shoppers. When & why did it all go wrong for Erdington High street?

Hackers & scammers should be shot at dawn. I was going to say hung at dawn but that`s a bit grisly. If these hackers are clever enough to scam us, then why haven`t we got someone clever enough to stop them in the first place.?

When i joined the army at 17 & i heard recruits saying ` darling or my lovely` i must admit i was a tad confused. Here in Co.Durham such terms of endearment are ` pet or hinney`. When someone asks my name i say ` you can call me `sir` just to see the confused look on their face.

My artificial grass never needs attention Except to sweep a few leaves off. Never any weeds growing through either. Why are some people so snobbish about " that`s not grass " as one of my neighbours said!

Johnny, a boring lawn beats boring concrete every time.

Thanks for all the advice. It turns out it was something really simple, wind noise from my video doorbell, though why after a couple of years it`s suddenly started interfering with my pc ?

Hi jukebox, it seems to be from the computer. I bought a usb soundcard which hasn`t helped at all. I hope i don`t have to take the back off to check the fan? I`m tempted to take it to a computer repair shop & probably get ripped off.

Thanks Mort, The pc ( aio ) is not very old, less than a year so i doubt if it`s a cooling fan problem? I`m going to try a usb sound card to see if it improves things. I do miss my music, tried listening to A Lark Ascending & it sounded like a Lark with a sore throat!

I have sound problems on my pc. It sounds like wind interference & I've exhausted my very limited skills trying to solve the problem. Any help is appreciated.

Through the 70s/80s we fostered a young lad classed as ESN. I taught him the best i could to read & write. He was a lovely lad & still keeps in touch today.

Cabbage/Small whites may prefer cabbage to lay their eggs, but in my garden they prefer radish leaves { probably because i don`t grow cabbage } Red Admiral butterflies seem to be zooming round my garden as if they are on `something` Maybe a neighbour has got a cannabis plant growing!

I`ve watched the video, sadly couldn`t find her. Probably something innocent like practicing to be a traffic warden.

And pray kind sir, what were you doing in the ladies?

Happy birthday Michael, all the best for a nice day.
