well who would have thought my co-parishioners in Broadchurch (*) would rise up and one
and insist that the Baden Powell statue must stay ?

that is the question: what do the lock down stir-crazies on AB think of that ?

various points arise - (1) Broadchurch is of course West Bay Dorset and this is Poole. Dorset
(2)East even of the Isle of Slingers - that is Portland Island for Hardy lovers - you know kiss me Hardy that one -author of steamy gay sex novels set in the Far West
(3) Brownsea Island - near where the statue is - is the most expensive spot in England and is a social construct. an estate agent on commission [hey you are in the wrong job Andy!] wrote a piece about the great expense as a puff and it became true !
(4) BM will recognise Brownsea Island as the venue of the case which said that the Home Office would NOT pick up the bill for damage from a camp of Borstal Boys - called the Brownsea Island case I think 1953
(5) Thick in the arm / thick in the head/ DOrset born and Dorset bred - - - I just thought I would chuck that one in.
(6) Did anyone catch that the Colston statue was hauled out of the sea at Bristol? Jesus B is on the Avon if you go and have a look
(7) well done Darzetters ! - um er that is what they call themselves

Is a frontal lobotomy necessary for this thread? If so, I'll get the Black & Decker out.

I hate the pert - "you dont have to have had a lobotomy to work here - but it helps!" one liner

some one did use a Black and Decker for a emergency trephine.
"describe the use of a simple commercially available Black and Decker™ hand based ... A variety of needles are available for aspiration, cutting and trephine ..." Pt survived

and.... someone was convicted of manslaughter. Abattoir worker with an intelligence that would qualify him for AB - posed like James Bond with a humane stunner and said I" am licenced to kill!", pressed it against another's temple and fired.
Didnt realise it woiuld kill him
