And I lived in that Grade I listed building with 9 bedrooms...

Did you? That would be a coincidence. I can't remember the door number, but I think it was a big one, about 535. I didn't know it was listed or how many rooms, but it was a lot.

I believe the IT firm moved out years ago. EPP they were called.

I lived in Kings Heath for nigh on 20 years. Dr Lucifer diagnoses Wendy's problem as too many pickled eggs and pork scratchings.

On the Alcester Road, about a mile north of the Maypole, is a small parade of shops with a baker just off the main road. That's where I copped it. I used to work in a converted house opposite.

I am not interested in that at all...

I once worked for several months in Kings Heath. I got the worst sh1ts I've ever had in my life there. My landlady was not amused! urg!

I blame the pies at the baker's over the road.

You can get chocolate spiders there.

Yeah they have a big ground next to the factory - they covered whole area with very strict bylaws so it is impossible to change things, Harborne is doing similar thing albeit one step below Bourniville's protection level (can't mind what it's called).

ISTR it was a bit leafy, quite a pleasant part of the city.

Never go there, only when I pass it in car - what's so special on it?

They do a lot of uphill gardening there.

Are you spending a lot of time up the Bournville Boulevard these days Alexei?

I played footy against Bournville back in the eighties. Is the ground still there, Alexei? Next to the chocolate factory as I recall.

Might be my wife's auntie. I wondered what she did for a living !

Went to a nice lady masseuse in Edgbaston. Did lots of the famous cricketers but not being into cricket I forget the names. Therepeutic massage for injuries (I had pulled a muscle*) that is, not the nudge nudge wink wink sort. She must have been 70 at least.
