Re: Pokemon Go

I've had no eggs from Pokestops in over a week now. I'm down to my last 5km egg (the last two were crap - 5km are the worst)

Lots of the Christmas Pikachu kicking about though

Re: What are you drinking?

Shared a bottle of hot Glühwein with FiL while we were decorating our Christmas tree this afternoon, very nice - but about 25°C too warm in our lounge to enjoy it at its best.

Re: Roadrage

Nah...I thought it was funny as fcuk as well.


They were both in the wrong, simple as that.

The rider suffers from tourettes. He was simply trying to escalate a slight mistake into an end-of-the-world scenario. M'ron. I'm guessing he was upset long before this happened.

Re: Daylight Robbery

Fwiw if I'd been there, I think I'd have been tempted to nick their (probably stolen) scooter whilst they were occupied.
As well as making their getaway more difficult, and giving the police something to work with forensically, the irony of the act would give me considerable pleasure.
