Day off for a good scrub.

Island Man. @Svidrigaylov (390) • Guadeloupe 10 Oct 19

No tourists to herd today thankfully. On the down side however is the fact that my veranda hasn't had a good scrubbing in months and the many visits from next door's chickens are in evidence. So today is a day for scrubbing and...

Not a happy place to be.

Island Man. @Svidrigaylov (390) • Guadeloupe 7 Oct 19

GB @GoldenBlock (35) • United Kingdom 12 May 19

If you are in the UK right now, and not living in some remote part of Scotland without any electricity or Internet; you can't fail to notice how much criticism the Government gets over the farce that is Universal Credit. I am...

Island Man. @GoldenBlock Yes, the Finnish experiment was a bit small and unadventurous. And no doubt a lot of employers would be quick to take advantage - even if they themselves were creaming in an extra £100 a week.

Alien space craft in my garden.

Island Man. @Svidrigaylov (390) • Guadeloupe 10 May 19

My neighbour, the lady who painted the outside of her house shocking pink, called the police late last night and reported a strange, green glow hovering above my garden. I’m sure the police thought she was drunk, high or crazy...
