How do you sort of bump into someone? Short of running them over.

Someone bumped into my son when he was at primary school and broke his arm. This was all a rather excessive game of Thomas the Tank Engine, which just goes to show how dangerous children's books can be. He got better of course and he's an architect now.

Hopefully he designs better playgrounds, his last school project was Culcheth High School.
Best regards, John

Heh... designing school playgrounds pretty much describes my job

Oh, the joy of H&S and Disabled Access regulations!

What if you found it was a Pentaxian buying a couple of K-5s and a few dozen lenses?

Amazing how a man traced his stolen laptop with some
free software. link

He was on Radio 2 Jeremy Vine Show talking to Vanessa today (16th)
Should be available on iPlayer.

Another listener phoned in and they had done the same and the thief was now in jail

Why is it amazing? An IP is traceable - bit of "ET phone home" and away you go....

Flipside: there is *no* anonymity after a certain point.

It's amazing because the police actually did something!
Cheers, HG

Mustn't forget the Zenits, or folders, or...

Just got the grass cut before the rain came again. A small problem with applying the feed at the start of the season, stopped it from being a lawn

I thought it was the police's job just to shrug and give you an incident number for the insurance?

I have had some good news I have been assimilated into my new job which is the same as the old one.

Hopefully, this will see me through for the next 12 months until the next part of the restructure. These are difficult times with over 2,000 staff going in a 3 year period.
