A possible merger, a funny photo and Kile's due here again

20 June

Interesting visitor this morning, not in what he came here for but what he said during his visit. We’ve had more than a few problems with the man who lives upstairs over the last few weeks, so the CID officer tasked with investigating it came around to see us. By this time we can hardly remember the details of what happened from the time Mark was taken into hospital. We couldn’t really help there at all.

Just lately though, there have been various reports about Warwickshire police merging with West Mercia police; all such reports have been denied. But the officer here today said that both forces were struggling to merge their methods ready for a full merger. Now I’m left wondering who is telling the biggest porkies, the force or just this one officer.

This a photo in today’s News that has given me a good laugh (http://www.nuneaton-news.co.uk/Rotary-award-charity-champion/story-21264744-detail/story.html), the link will take you to story but they haven’t put the laughable photo on there. That photo in the paper shows the bearded man there right in between the crossed khukris (the name of the restaurant actually), and it looks like he’s got bunny ears growing out of his head. Surely the papers staff snapper didn’t take that one?

We’re due to have Kile this weekend and yet again I’m going to be too busy to go out with him anywhere. I might perhaps be able to get out with him for a couple of hours on Sunday if he doesn’t want to go to Sunday School. We’ll see later. Jan is off now and will collect him form school and take him home to get his stuff together before coming back here, probably via an hour in Anker. While Jan is off doing that I shall be going in to town to do a bit of shopping, dropping off two bags of stuff for the Warwickshire air ambulance shop and sending a parcel to Ulster with DHL. Oh the busy life we lead … … …

And today’s photo … 

Part of the Sizewell B power station, a sight we may see more of if the government goes ahead with more nuclear power generation.

A message from the Sage for us today …

'It's just too hot to wear clothes today,' Jack says as he stepped out of the shower, 'Honey, what do you think the neighbours would think if I mowed the lawn like this?'
'Probably that I married you for your money,' she replied.
