    Things that annoy you

    Unless it is something like one small rose or heart, I completely agree. Think they look awful.

    More to the point though, do you like fishcakes?

    This dressing up as a clown craze

    Here's the latest from the Beeb on the matter. Police across England have been called to dozens of incidents in which pranksters dress as "creepy clowns" to deliberately scare people. The culprits are said to be following a trend that started in the US. A 30-year-old man was arrested in...

    This dressing up as a clown craze

    I thought Clownsville was also known as Trump Towers.

    All purpose cricket thread

    Here is the incident. http://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/cricket/10612194/buttlers-outburst-at-bangladesh Most of the Bangladeshi players appear to just be celebrating, but there are a few taunting Buttler a little too wildly after the decision in my opinion. Umpires need to calm...

    All purpose cricket thread

    Anyone else think it is only a matter of time before a player lamps someone in a major cricket match? Watching the England v Bangladesh game yesterday and have to say, the celebration and taunting of Jos Buttler following his dismissal, was way over the top. The pundits were saying he is...

    You too, Daz. May the Bluebird of Happiness not shit on your head, or suddenly die of avian flu mid-flight.

    Things that annoy you

    Nope. I agree. When you see just one small, single rose, you think, this isn't too bad, but all too often, once someone has got one, they tend then to go a bit crazy and keep getting them done. For me personally, I see it as a fashion fad and of course things do go out of fashion. Such a long...

    This dressing up as a clown craze

    I did note that in the US students are going on clown hunts and are trying to find clowns and chase them down. You're right, Nick and you are hardly going to be able to escape by blending in with the crowds are you! Not unless you are very close by a clown convention.p somewhere.

    This dressing up as a clown craze

    Yep, gathered that. ;) Think the police themselves have said there isn't anything wrong with people just dressing up as clowns. Intimidating and harassing though they will treat differently. Bit worrying that people are hanging round schools and following children while carrying knives. A bit...

    This dressing up as a clown craze

    Do I take it from these couple of comments from posters on here that although it is against the law to carry a knife in public, it is absolutely fine if they are dressed as a clown? ;)

    This dressing up as a clown craze

    To be fair though, you can choose to answer the door or not. You can also choose to open the door and then close it on people. Grown men in clown outfits upsetting and scaring children and following them around while carrying knives is surely a tad more worrying. Unless of course you get...

    This dressing up as a clown craze

    It's the harassment aspect. Some are chasing people and some are following people around and some are carrying knives. The whole idea is to frighten people and it is being done to kids especially. Think if someone is following kids carrying a knife that must warrant police intervention, surely.

    Anyone else ever get fleeting moments of glory?

    I won a prize in the Today newspaper's competition. First prize was £20,000 and a luxury holiday. When I opened the letter to say I won though, it was just a satellite dish as a consolation prize.

    This dressing up as a clown craze

    I saw a load of them a couple of weeks back. It was at the circus though, so I decided against getting the police involved. If I had their engine would have exploded and the wheels fallen off.

    Shops that are gone

    Yep, at Kingfield Road and still there, though it has been taken over. Used to be a steel stockist, but would also supply all the tools and nits and bolts and screws to the shop in Hales Street. It was a big store.
