Workmen painting white lines on a road left a gap for a dead badger because they said it was not their responsibility to move it.

Cooee I'm here … no, over here. 😆

That did make me smile, thank you! But, quite bizarrely, last week I was actually driving through Downton and it's not even my local patch. 😯

Such a pretty little village, one of these days I will have a wander there accompanied by a pram. 😉

So you killed the poor bugger 🙁

And now you want to get a pram to pick up their corpses ………….. you sick woman 🙁

pram? does she put a nappy on them too?

Downton – pretty??

Ernie – if I had known, I would have been there pronto!

Lol at rOcKeTdOg. 😆

rusty – yes! Bet you've been in the 16th century (?) pub there? Watercress meadows, thatched cottages – so typically Hampshire.

You're Tubbs Tattsyrup – aren't you ? 🙁

Not really my end of Hampshire (although it's only up the road from here). The only thing i think about when Downton is mentioned are traffic jams at the poxy lights in the middle of the village. And yes i think i have been in the pub there :-).

Great beer and great energy bars come from Downton!

ernie – had to Google that name but she's much older than me 😉

rusty – nah, poxy traffic coming from Bournemouth direction. 😉

Cap'n – what energy bars?

Mule Bars

Note she didn't ask about the beer! 😉

Thanks singletrackmind. 🙂

Cap'n – I'm on the wagon dontcha know. 🙄
