I bet MrsA told her to throw the contest.

‘Look, make sure you only collect two or three eggs and that other girl finds all the others and I’ll buy you that toy you want and you can have chocolate for dinner every day this week’.

MrsA doesn't understand the wealth creating properties of ceramic chickens. We had a small one, now, we have a big one. It works.

I'm not sure you understand how breeding works, given that MrsA exists.

I can see next year’s headline:

“Enigmatic northerner* crushed to death under giant ceramic chicken”

How old does something secondhand have to be until it can be classed as an antique?

After high winds last night there is a wolf loose in my area

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-berkshire-42730984

It's chipped so it's been tracked by helicopter whilst lots of experts assess how hard it is to shoot a wolf with a tranquilizer gun.

When I say area its maybe 20 miles as the crow flies :)

**UPDATE they have now caught wolf and it's on a dog lead!

My mother’s garden has acquired two new gazebos and a tree last night. One gazebo and the tree are from next door, but she hasn’t found out where the second gazebo is from.

This is the view from her kitchen.

I have been about 3 foot away from that Wolf. I took my wolf-crazy daughter to the sanctuary late last year. I wouldn't fuck with them.

They used to offer walking with wolves but now they are getting older they are more likely to eat your face off so there's not much chance of that happening until they rescue some more.

When I took our daughter to the zoo to see the wolves she wasn't having any of it. "No daddy those are NOT wolves they're just dogs". I think that stories had built her expectations up a bit too much.

No it’s not. That appears to be rain. There’s no sign of snow anywhere in that picture.

I’m in Glasgow this week and I’ve seen plenty of it.

Keeping my fingers crossed that the M74 is clear for my drive home tomorrow, after all those cars getting stuck overnight earlier in the week.

I've been doing the same too, although I hadn't seen all the episodes before, so plenty of it is new to me. When it's funny, it's very funny. There is plenty of jarring stuff though where the jokes really haven't aged well. I think the best/worst example is when Joey helps another bloke with his ballroom dancing and Monica asks if Joey is gay yet.

Most of the best stuff does seem to involve Joey.

Friends is plenty homophobic. Every time someone mentions that Ross' wife is a lesbian everyone howls with laughter. It's mostly good stuff, though.

I was powerful in love with Rachel when I was younger, but now it's all Phoebe all the time.

That's not strictly true, and I think a lot of it is the fact it was just meant to be "WELL THATS SURPRISING". But it definitely jars now.

No, team Monica. Although more team Chandler.

But the best Friend? Listen here.

Watching it through a modern prism Ross is the absolute worst. I mean he is anyway, but more so.

I'm probably team Phoebe these days too.

It was - lots of things were. You get crew standing at the sides of the screen sometimes though, because they expected it to be cut to 4:3.

There's one I spotted on an aeroplane, hang on...
