It was the 'drought' that was the main problem.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.
That made me laugh!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!1976 apparently it rained the day I was born in May and the next time it rained was when I was christened In August.
Hope it turns up, did your kid have any idea who it was?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.
That's disgraceful. Not that it'll do much good but did the drive owner have a ring doorbell?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 your kid is ok mate. Awful that there are cunts like this walking around.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.
No, no idea. He was all shook up, said he was wearing a balaclava tooHope it turns up, did your kid have any idea who it was?
Nope, went and checked. Have reported it to the police but doubt they will do anythingThat's disgraceful. Not that it'll do much good but did the drive owner have a ring doorbell?
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.Hope your kid is ok mate. Awful that there are cunts like this walking around.
Keep an eye on Facebook marketplace etc over the next few days. you never know
Can I borrow him/her, our old dog is too old to catch the little bastards now.Karma
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
Tom, that's really shit. Hope your lad is okaySomeone 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.
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 dayKarma

Yeah he's fine thanks. Was a bit shook up at first but kids are pretty resilient I thinkTom, that's really shit. Hope your lad is okay
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.Someone stole one of my kids bikes this morning while he was on his paper round.
