That's awful, hope your cousin is okay and they get hold of this nutjob


Think shes just in shock (understandedly) at the moment.

The police have now apparently arrested the guy.


Had an update on this.

Turns out the police didn't arrest anyone as the guy killed himself shortly after the victim was stabbed (she swas still alive when she was found but died on the way to hospital).

Police found a bag containing knives, a hatchet and suicide note at the guys house.

Think my cousin was extremely lucky here, especially seeing as he'd often give her a lift to work and lived just around the corner from her grandparents (who often look after her 6 year old daughter).

Like something out of a horror film. Apparently news presenter Emily Maitlis has had to put up with a stalker/harasser for years too.

On the Michael Owen front, putting his monotone snooze-worthy commentary to one side, I’ve always thought he was a twat the moment he turned up on an episode of Family Fortunes and revealed he neither knew how to make a cup of tea or even operate the kettle.

Jesus strawberry floating shitting Christ.

So I found out on Saturday that my aunty had a really strawberry floating massive stroke on Saturday and was non responsive afterwards. She regained consciousness and was responsive on Sunday, but apparently today has dropped off a cliff. She's Do Not Resuscitate, and she's got a Heart BPM of strawberry floating 40, and so they're saying it's gonna be hours.

She's only 60. She was never a health nut but she wasn't exactly washing down the cocaine with Strong Brew. It's strawberry floating bullshit.

And, plus, cracking, she's really religious (not in a prick way, she literally abandoned her lifelong church when they wouldn't accept my cousin (her son) coming out, and totally supports him and his husband, and his little brother is a pastor in this new sect they follow (also not nuts - they were on Songs of Praise a couple of weeks back, he's a cool beardy guitar playing pastor type)), and it looks like her, of all strawberry floating people, won't be allowed a funeral with her family around. Like, are you strawberry floating serious.

That's proper crap, sorry to hear that Skarjo.

My mum had a DNR because she was terrified of being resuscitated and being heavily disabled from it.

Yea, she was already heavily disabled. She'd had the DNR in place before the stroke, but there was never a chance she'd ever have a chance of normalcy again. My uncle works in London during the week and comes home for weekends, and apparently she'd been out for a day before he even found her.

EDIT; I mean she'd been rendered heavily disabled by the stroke in the brief period of lucidity. Not that she was disabled before.

Just got back from taking my mum for a meal out at a local pub, since she's having her kitchen done and so currently has no kitchen. We got sat down and ordered our food and drink via the app, then were hearing a lot of loud chat from a nearby table, which in itself is fine and expected in a pub. Quite quickly the chat was filled with loud exclamations of strawberry float/strawberry floating/strawberry floater/strawberry floated practically every other word, which was annoying but we just sighed and shook our heads. Shortly after that though one of them went off on a loud racist/xenophobic tirade about how he was getting no government support for sending his grandson to University despite paying into the system for his whole life, but if his daughter in law put on a Burka or his son was "strawberry floating a Muslim" then they'd be getting all kinds of government money and everything for free.
At that point we complained to the staff behind the bar, who did go over to the table and ask them not to swear loudly, and it did settle down at that point for a bit.

More or less right as our food was arriving though it started up again and once the girl had finished bringing everything out we asked if they could maybe have another word with the group asking them to just tone down the language a bit, we weren't bothered about the fact they were talking loudly, it was what was being said that was the problem. At that point a guy from behind the bar came to our table and said there wasn't anything else he could do except move us since nobody else was complaining. At this point we'd started eating our food anyway, and moving us to the other side of the place would make very little difference with the volume of the swearing and racism. We tried to stress to him that the fact they were being loud wasn't the issue, you expect loud chat in a pub, but the frequent swearing and racism in a pub focused on sitting down to eat fresh cooked food was the problem. At this point the guys defence was "If we kicked out everyone who came in and was a bit racist about immigrants there'd be nobody left in here", and then re-iterated he couldn't/wouldn't do anything except move us and that he wouldn't ask the guys to move.
We just told him we didn't want to move, would just finish our food and then go. On his way back to the bar he did ask them again to ease back on the swearing and racism, to which one of them loudly replied "He's married to a Thai girl so how can he be being racist?"


I'm not being some kind of man-Karen by complaining here am I? I mean I was fine with loud talking, and could deal with the swearing even if it was really annoying, but the racist rants was crossing the line and I think I was justified in complaining....right?
