MY happy thought started as the opposite. On the way home yesterday I spotted that a ridge tile on a neighbour's roof had become dislodged by the storm and was left resting precariously above their side entrance.

One of the children answered as her parents were not in and as I was explaining what had happened I noticed 2 swastikas scratched quite faintly into the black paintwork of the front door threshold. I was utterly shocked but did my best not to draw the little girl's attention to them and walked home wondering who the hell would do such a thing (they are an Indian family) and how awful my neighbours would feel when they noticed them.

Quite by chance, however, I just discovered that Hindus use a swastika as a symbol for harmony so it appears my concerns about a racist motive were unjustified and I've learned something new.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

I always liked Doom and Heretic because the gameplay was simple. I hope they've kept that feel.

I'll be interested in your opinion Hugh.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Just got a letter from Lidl's customer services about my complaint on their cling film. Very apologetic and they're looking into it, I get a refund and they've also sent a £5 shopping voucher. Wasn't really after blagging something for nothing but it's a nice gesture.

If I was being cynical I'd say that they probably do it as routine.

Anyway up I got some of Sainsbury's cling film on Monday and it works perfect.

Just had a flier in from The Big Bad Toy Store in the USA where I get some of my Gundam models from.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Hubby received a letter from his work today and it looks like Redeployment could in fact be an option for him. The letter states - Redeployment is the first priority and as a (hubby's place of work), are confident that all staff affected can be redeployed.

I do hope that is the case, fingers crossed.
