New - The things that really annoy you

1976 apparently it rained the day I was born in May and the next time it rained was when I was christened In August.
 
The highest temperature recorded anywhere in the UK in the 1976 June-July heatwave was 35.9 degrees. So it was actually cooler than say the day we played Crusaders.
It was the 'drought' that was the main problem.
 
I saw a Gary Lineker tweet about the heatwave in Europe and middle East the other day, and I made the mistake of looking at the replies.... Fuck sake.

I was born pretty much the week the drought broke. Putting my ability to bring the rain from day one to one side (I'm not welcome in Manchester this week), and while not being hard quantitative data, my mam certainly reminded me regularly of my role in her own experience of 'the hottest summer in UK history' to that point!
 
Someone stole one of my kids bikes this morning while he was on his paper round. Ran up all hooded up and took while he walked into a drive.
Hope it turns up, did your kid have any idea who it was?

That's disgraceful. Not that it'll do much good but did the drive owner have a ring doorbell?

Came downstairs at 5.30 this morning to find my cat sat next to a dead rat outside my back door. Lovely job getting rid of that half-asleep

No, no idea. He was all shook up, said he was wearing a balaclava too

Nope, went and checked. Have reported it to the police but doubt they will do anything

It's a bit odd - they were clearly looking to steal the bike, I found the one he was riding dumped nearby. Daft thing is, although its a Giant, its not new and probably worth very little.

Can I borrow him/her, our old dog is too old to catch the little bastards now.

Mine is a turd. Brings stuff in usually. He's even started brining the odd live spider and moth if it wasn't bad enough. His life long aim is getting a squirrel. Once came back through the cat flap with a massive piece of pork with stuffing in, covered in gravy. Some poor bugger was angry that day
 
I had a 3 legged cat (lost a leg in an accident when he was about 8), who still used to bring back live 'toys'. Got up one morning to find him staring at the tiny gap under the TV cabinet, so got down to look, and there was a baby rabbit terrified for its life. Rescued the rabbit, put it in a shoe box, fed it, watered it and looked after it until it seemed to be showing signs of life again.

I then took it down to the large open field at the end of the street to let it out of the box to its freedom. As the rabbit scampered away happy as Larry that it was safe, some goon comes around the corner and let's their big galoot of a dog off its lead, it sees the rabbit, chases it and grabs it in its jaws and kills it. I was absolutely gutted.

Obviously not as gutted as the rabbit.

We've had a lot of kids bikes stolen from our school. Gangs use them to store and transport drugs in the frame. There was an incident a few days ago where 2 boys in balaclavas and carrying machetes were waiting in a park nearby after school to steal bikes from kids. Police tracked them on CCTV getting on a train back to Birmingham so it's a county lines thing.
