Walking down the road to get a sarnie I see a fine figure of a man with no shirt, large belly drinking a can of Tennents Super. Bit further on I nearly get mown down by a bloke on a BSO with a large carrier bag on each side of his handlebars. He's holding on to the bar ends and can't get to his brakes so ploughs through a group of people dragging his feet to try and stop and yelling at people to move.
Get back to work in one piece and comment on these two and find out that the Cash Converters up the road was robbed this mornnig.
We used to be based in Richmond, oh how I miss civilisation.

    The Kings Arms in Teddington used to be known as the 'Feltham Embassy' until it thankfully closed down and re-opened as 'The Clockhouse'. All the scumbags from that neck of the woods used to congregate there on a regular basis!

    This is the only place that turning a pub into a supermarket or MacDonalds is a good thing.
