Plasticine a modelling clay . not seen much these days. as to graffiti. see that all over the place on walls. houses. phone box’s . street signs. etc and of Course there is human graffiti called tattoos .getting very. common on people these days . called ‘art ‘ by many but to others such as myself huge swathes of ‘blurry’ ink plastered over parts of body is like huge swathes of street ‘art’. plastered over walls etc . beauty is in eye of beholder .so art to some but graffiti to others. ( nothing against some ‘artwork’. seen quiet a few really good street and body paintings but prefer small artistic stuff etc .eg butterfly or dolphin etc on say a ladies shoulder or again small ‘artwork’ on a mans arm. )
people whom drive straight onto motorway from slip road without attempting to adjust to fit in a gap. many a lorry had to break for change sudden lane! indicator seemingly giving a god right to drive straight on. second rant. Car’s van’s approaching a slip lane to left or exit dual carriageway ..staying in outside lane and when less than 400 yards or so form exit start indicating and moving into any ‘gap’ inlet lane to get in front of those whom went in left lane ready to leave (as your supposed to do) creating braking and danger to vehicles in left lane! need cameras. put up and a rule to have anybody going off to left to be in LEFT lane before countdown markers! grr. A12 has this at almost every junction.
used to chat to a few of those regs eg Kenty. only see kiwi as reg these days but we are so far apart time zones a convo is next to nothing. I can recall room was teeming with people though it did suffer trolls and odd abuser. on one occasion I was picked don when joined chat room somebody suggested we all go to members only room . and to my astonishment majority did! many thanks that person. not forgotten! anyway . I did try other chat sites but never found anybody I knew or could get a bit of banter going apart from one other site . Nice lady living in Ipswich we used to chat a wee bit now and again. right enuff said. enjoy weekend ahead all. I am off to sunny? Dorset for a few days to stay with old friends :) .
Jolly R , as to where have police gone.. easy low staffing levels for street officers . higher civilian intake for backroom operations and a budget to work within combined with lack of attraction for new officers ( who wants to be part of the new force .run under political aspects eg woke. colour , and other ‘correct’ ideas and not just basic law enforcement)
hard to see anybody here and lack of people teds to stop other visiting and staying! kiwi is sort of permanent though. Mids and couple of others pop in now and again as I do . sadly rarely get a chat going :(
