New POD Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 One wonders if care in the community is working. I know we closed all the asylums, because well frankly autism isn't a reason to put someone in residential care, but you've got to think there is grounds for sectioning, drugs and electric shock therapy. Perhaps to the ballocks? Shite Ron, vonmon and chodweaver 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Allegro looks very nice, I would prefer a picture of that, it is in the best colour and an LE has great seats also. The Focus is very grim.

vonmon Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Sorry about the faaaaaaaaaaaar away shot, by the time I'd got my phone out, turned the camera app on and taken it, it was well in the distance.

We changed the dog walking routine as he had an operation in his foot about a month ago. We’ve been driving him to the park to keep him on the grass. Will probably carry on until they start charging for parking again. Here’s a photo of him for nodding at purposes. Maybe this should go in the dog thread. mitsisigma01 and Retr0naut 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there always seem to be a few hippy transit/camper types knocking around Marchmont area, the odd thing of interest in the outer suburbs. I used to live in a flat in Marchmont Street just across the links around 1986/7. Golf Tavern was my local; happy days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have two Visa 17RD both MOTed, in good working order and in addition to the black one there is one more know to the club. C184 FCV looks tatty in these pictures but I have seen it at a show. Run out of MOT Nov 2019, but not being MOTed over the winter and then lockdown does not surprise me. D664 PBH is also listed but has been without MOT for many years.
