I can't believe that Bob Grant (Jack) was only 41 was the film was made. Makes me feel better at 47

Wave hello sweet cheeks

Some day this! First I'm scunnered off my food, then my illusions about John Lennon are shattered into smithereens. Angry

Aww!

Maybe if you hit yourself on the head you'll forget the whole day's events?

Ben is tired. May try and turn in before 11.30pm for once...

Read General General thread. I'm astounded. And TTPYO for the food horrors.

Ben is a coffee drinking yahoo.

I was out with an old school friend Rob on Tuesday night for a couple of beers. The place we went to does right tasty (and cheap) pub grub so we had BBQ Burger and chips to keep our strength up. To pay for his meal my pal gave me fiver from his wallet and I went up to the bar and ordered. This is relevant to the story as you'll soon see.

After we'd eaten it was my mate's round so he got out his wallet...which had no cash in it. Then he noticed his bank cards were missing. I knew he had at least two tenners in there as I'd seen them with my own eyes.

I retraced a few mental steps and I could recall seeing someone sit down at the table next us behind Rob. While I have no proof it seems the guy sat down, took a chance that my mate's wallet was in his coat pocket, lifted the money and cards, and then amazingly put the wallet back again. Lucky really as it had his train ticket in it.

I was particularly annoyed with myself for not noticing as this guy had to walk past a dozen empty tables to sit where he sat. A tad suspicious, certainly odd.

Anyway, the bank cards were cancelled and no money was lost from his account but he finished his evening £30 lighter for his trouble. Makes you especially mad that this happens as he's on the dole at the moment.

For the record I bought the round instead.

Pub CCTV and a quick call to the police?

Wow, that can't be in London. You don't get considerate robbers in London.

Speaking of which the tube strike makes London look really busy, like an apocalypse but one where everyone has to get to work.

You can tell there is a tube strike on because you get all the inexperienced walkers out on the roads
Fairweather walkers we call them. They block the lanes, they won't let you overtake. They just don't understand the rules of the pathway. I bet half of them haven't done their walking proficiency test. It took me an extra 36 seconds to get to work this morning and I saw at least two people sitting by the side of the pavement with a sore toe caused by some stupid inexperience walker who probably wasn't looking where they are going. It's horrific

Rob didn't call the police but he spoke to pub staff and they took his number and said they'd check the CCTV. Probably should've notified the rozzers but I think it was just an opportunist theft - coat over the back of a chair.

I'd recognise him if I saw him again, the bastard.
