:) don't play at work out loud one bad swear word!

Jeez should see our regional news !!

A few years ago don't laugh I was the subject of a news documentary.
That was um interesting had a days shoot with them.
For once not about Rats!!!

Had an instance of news crew turn up on my doorstep once and they where a bloody mare ..

Then I had to go to hospital in Cambridge and got stopped again!!!
Didn't think nothing of it until I got haha your on the news AGAIN!

They are a mare to deal with especially the regional lots as all looking for that big break .. Usually so far up their own .. You have to be a bit savvy with them or they will make you look like a twerp .. And that's not hard when your me!

Oh I got asked at age 25 to go on radio weekly for a " grumpy women" slot where people come in and rant !! I'd have been in my element but my work said no!!

Regional newsreaders are a mare !
When we had our serial killer here they camped out here along with every news team possible ! You couldn't take a pee with out one popping up !
Then I thought er that looks like my old front room?? ( rented house)
and my old kitchen!!!!!!! My mum then rang and said is that your old place on the news?? Yup he lived there lol!!

So true.... iv'e been fed up with the way journalists report the news.....one talks to another about situations their'sources' have informed them off. General suppisition about who what and where!!!

Proudly turning into a grumpy old man!!
