    Hi, I've found a debit card by the entrance to Honiton Close. It belongs to someone called Nicola, last name beginning with a W. Reply to this post if it's yours. I'm going to try to contact the bank too.

    Motorcycle Garages 1950/60’s

    I think I got my motorbike MOT'd at Jack Taylor's too, probably about 1984. My boyfriend said he knew somewhere that would be more forgiving for the test, and I do remember having to walk through a toy shop to get to the office at the back.

    Today I Heard.....

    Today I heard Mr Apricot complaining that the 'free membership card' was missing from his Staffordshire Wildlife Trust renewal letter. It wasn't missing. To avoid using plastic, they had printed the membership card at the bottom of the letter, which said 'please find attached your plastic free...

    The lens cap was on. Do they still have lens caps? It was on anyway.

    Weird smell in bathrooms

    There was a nasty smell in our house when we bought it. The sellers had all the windows open whenever we viewed, and we thought nothing of it because it was summer. But when we shut the windows, the smell built up. It was a sort of stale smell, like there was something dead. We had an overlap...

    Ducks...

    I think the ducks may have moved on to your garden after they rejected ours. We're on Yelverton Avenue and we saw a couple of ducks waddling across the front garden at the weekend. They were inspecting the flowerbed. It obviously didn't meet their high standards.

    Hoarding advice

    There is a forum for hoarders and people affected by it. www.helpforhoarders.co.uk I'm a bit of a hoarder myself. I can't bear to chuck out anything with a face (dolls, teddies). Mr Apricot isn't happy with it. Watching Toy Story 2 was traumatic for me.
