Andrew's beach front bar

Alocal photographer was stopped by police this week for taking photographs in the city centre. he was approached by the police who infomed him that his actions were against the law. His filmn was removed from his camera on the spot.

so does this sugest when we go on holiday or on a day trip and we take holiday snaps we are breaking the law? cos lets face it, we all do it.

when challenged the man was told he had been 'opperating in a covert manor', what by being visible in broad day light? in what way is that 'covert'?

Police seize photographer's film

Steve Carroll said he was taking the pictures openly
An amateur photographer has told how police seized his film as he was out taking snaps in a Hull shopping centre.
Steve Carroll, of Kent, was visiting relatives in Hull in December when he decided to do some "street photography" in the city's Prospect Centre.

or do those egg heads get on your nerves? Do they ever loose?

In Sheffield a school lollypop man has been suspended indefinatly because on the lat day of term before christmas he wore a santa suit. Apparently this contravines our nanny state health and safety regulations.

Now the suspended crossing warden says he is going to defy the ruling, and will be there to see the kids safely across the road anyway.

The T shirt mentioned in the previous post is meant to be ironic.

I know the guy is a tit.

That people are staring at me on the bus....

could it be because i chose to wear a trilby, a somewhat out dated fasion acsessery?

could it be the T shirt that reads 'Michael Winner rocks'?

or is it perhaps that i sing along aloud to Chas and dave on my MP3 player...'Rabbit..rabbit...rabbit..'?

what d'ya think?

As some of you may recall, just before christmas my 97 year old grandmother was taken into hospital. She finaly went back home yesterday.

Whilst she was in there she caught the sickness and dihorea bug that has been doing the rounds, and as a consiquence my mum and dad caught it, as did my aunt and uncle, and as did I.

For three days all i was able to keep down was dry toast, my stomach has churned like a washing machine, and my backside has never spent so long on the loo.

But inow we are all getting back to normal, though less than happy about the fact that the hospital moved my nan from one ward to another, knowing that there was a bug on that ward.

As it happens everything has turned out ok, and she is happy to be back in her own home again.

Had some lamb chops, garden peas, mashed spuds and according to the menu, some bloke called Julian Carrots!

I was woken in the early hours to hear the plastic windows in the green house rattling and thumping like a bad Rolf Harris wobble board number. I would sleep through the end of the world i am such a deep sleeper, but michelle isn't, and has such sensetive hearing that if next door dropped a pin onto a cusion it would wake her, and then she wakes me.

The wind and rain was so severe this morning, and at 6am we were out ther, barley awake dismanteling the bloody thing before it crashed into the bedroom window.

It came down a lot faster than it went up, and now it lays in pieces at the back of the shed, with the old front door and a coulple of chairs.

Now we look like the chav family.

have to hire a skip, oh, and on top of all this the systen on the toilet is knackered and we need to call out a plumber.

Happy new year!!!

It's snowing out the window as I type this.

Forcasters recon it could drop to -7.

coldest winter for 100 years the man on the radio said.

looks like being a high heating bill.

2008 is here, and who know what this year will hold.

is it going to be a whirlwind journy?

Is it going to be a damp squid of a year?

Only time will tell, one thing that does seem certain though, it's goping to be a bloody cold start.

And now, back to work...
