I would just like to say

After having booked three days off to help with the coffers recovery fund. I thought while scratching my bum at home and not far from the Oldham border. I'd have a visit to the shopping centre and then mull around the same town. Yah I see why it took me twenty odd years to visit. Only decent thing was £5 all day bee bus ticket.

Nearly drove through there in the early hours of this morning. M62 closures on me way back from the airport, but clever navigation meant I passed just north of Old Ham

Prolly got something to do with the Arnhem - Op Market Garden anniversary bash.

I has just returned from a couple of weeks on the sunny isle, got home at 04:30 this morning so feeling a bit pooped. Not been able to post on 'ere or keep up with licks owing to having a prehistoric smart phone ('er indoors cast-off when she upgraded), which also doesn't work well with fat fingers . But have managed to keep up with most of your posts, but @Hippo 's pics and puzzles would not display so missed all those. Just got back after collecting me tratter from it's holiday hideout, window down, warm day, nice drive. I love me tratter

Should have popped in for a cup of tea.

Spotted this little chap while on me hols. And saw another one in a tree a few days later, a few miles away. Never seen one before, then two come along at once. They are not shy and not bothered if you are near them. Hoopoe bird.

Updated as above. I looked at all the waffle criteria the Soli gave my son about loans from finance co's being honoured and valid and enforceable, but family & personal were "soft-loans" and would not count. So I stressed that they have had a big chunk of my money and their contemporaries are either already paid-up or paying up. I want the family court judge to take the ££££ benefit she has had into account in any settlement with my son.

It really does sound like your son needs a far more hard-nosed soli.
