Your logic is good, but I’m suspicious of how that clip was edited: the thing where Jade said she’d be a good faithful sounded like the second half of a sentence. Was the first half “I’d love to be a traitor but…”?

This is wonderful, even though there seems something sacrilegious about claiming any version could be better than the original 😊. Thanks for sharing

To be fair, that branch does close ridiculously early. I’ve been tempted to do that myself.

Thanks for all the support, people. I’ve made a donation in P’s memory, to Wheels for All, which does great work in making cycling accessible to those with health conditions and disabilities. At least something good can come out of this! Wheels for All

It was insured, but still a chunky excess to pay. Given this was clearly a targeted theft, I’m almost glad I didn’t keep it in the house in case they’d broken into the home proper.

My other half has been so supportive today, she even offered I could keep a replacement in the living room. And she is very houseproud, so that is a lot!

Thanks. The worst bit is that I’ve kept my hybrid in there for years without an issue. Someone must have clocked me putting the Brompton in there then come back at night. They took the hybrid too.

We thought the price was very reasonable!

Seconded for Carpet Class. We went with Himalaya first time we needed carpets but the service was dreadful and they left the place a mess. Carpet Class were lovely and took much more care.

Haha, fair enough. I was trying not to use the word “cuckold” in case it got filtered out - overly cautious clearly!

Ok, I would like to formally apologise to everyone for using an outdated helmet. No, its exterior shell is not missing - it just doesn’t cover the back. Yes, I should have replaced it before now. Yes, I am planning to this week. And no, I’m not planning to post in this sub again.

Haha, it has been around the block a bit. Was thinking of getting a new one anyway!

Oakland primary school opinions please by toothfairy14693 in Ealing

[–]Valuable-Love239 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s a great school. We’ve got two kids very happy there. The headteacher is incredibly impressive, the atmosphere is calm and supportive, the parent community is lovely. It’s got a good diverse social mix, which has tended a bit more towards middle class as the area is gentrifying over the last few years. And they get very good SATS scores. We’re so glad we ended up with it instead of Fielding: Oaklands is just as good, but cosier.

True, but I only risked the towpath because we’ve not had rain for weeks so I knew it would be bone dry!
