Back in my younger days I was attacked coming home alone from a dance. I was aware of someone skulking about and kept an eye open Thought he had disappeared until he came from behind hand over my mouth and pinning my arms down I had my keys in my hand and swung the lower part of my arm at his face and hit him . He let go and the adrenaline started pumping. I screamed and swore at him, backed out of the side road as a police car came down the road. They caught him and I was told that he had phoned the Police 10 minutes before threatening to kill someone.
He was let go the next day believe it or not and I was told as I wasn't hurt no harm done.
I have never forgotten this incident and was a bag of nerves walking to work every morning when it was dark. I still won't venture out at night unless I am with someone.
Years ago on this site we had some great posters and very little aggro. I recall one about the poster and his speedo's which was hilarious. Some of the older members still here will remember but I can't recall his name. Him and Robert the guy from Malta were always at it with the banter.
Keep posting Galrads Any light entertainment is welcome.
Loud Mouthed Frog was the title of a children's book that I used to read to my kids. It was about a frog who was always talking about himself, and how great he was; the boastful know-it-all frog.
Personally I just wish someone male or female would start some threads that we can all participate in without being attacked by a load of loud mouthed frogs. The Forums have become awash with attitudes and platitudes lately.
I'm sick of the arguments and "Let's all guess who the Twitter is?"
It's a stunning place just after Sandbanks which is one of the richest places in the world to live. We call it millionaires row. Dorset is a stunning county
I'm trying to master posting images etc but this may do the trick ,it's a video of Poole Harbour at sunset the large island that you see is Brownsea which is a haven for wild animals and run by the National Trust.
Looks fantastic and far from the madding crowd, but a tad awkward if the outboard motor failed.
As a matter of interest this place was colonised in the 1600's by people 5 miles from where I was born in Dorset . They emigrated from Poole which has the second largest natural harbour in the world.
