    There's a posh French accent?

      Ask a Parisian.

        Walk walked, green ring closed

        Not as brisk as it might have been: I had to go and close the main back gate at the start, which used up time for no real distance travelled, then my back decided it wasn't keen about a third of the way in, and then my ankles and thereabouts both decided the same after that - possibly because of the back affecting the way I walk, possibly just to be bolshie. But i managed to get it back to 16'16"/mile by the end, which was a bit better than I expected

        Four coppers roaming the side road and Iceland's car park; no idea why, and they weren't moving very quickly or as if they expected to achieve anything

          Oh, and it's the first time in a while that I've gone for a walk without my scarf, and I didn't feel the lack in the 12°C afternoon air

            I haven't watched that one.

            Trucking Hell.
            Is it not available on some catch up service or other?

              Ah - somebody with a gun, apparently

              It seems somebody chased somebody else up the side road firing a gun last evening, around 20:30. The coppers out there today have found casings in the road and in Iceland's car park, but they're believed to be blanks.

              Never a dull moment round here

                Last time we had a gun-related incident was a year or two ago, a couple of hundred yards up the road the other way, when a burglar running away from police shot himself in the foot

                  I think I prefer the fact it seems the hole people may have moved a few meters down the road.

                  I was going the opposite way so could confirm but I could see temporary traffic light...

                    Apparently someone was running amok with a crossbow in South East London last night.

                      Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
