Problems with book bought from Amazon Me: Tracking shows delivered but shipment not received Amazon: Warmest greetings [...] my name is Thor. Me: Greetings, Thor. Can I be Odin? Amazon: Odin, Father, How art thy doing on this here fine day? Me: Thor, my son. Agony raises upon my life. Amazon: This is outrageous! Who dares defy The All Father Odin! What has occurred to cause this agony? Me: I'm afraid the book I ordered to defeat our enemies has been misplaced. How can we keep Valhalla intact without our sacred book? Amazon: This is blasphemy! Wherever this book has been taken to, I shall make it my duty to get it back to you! I fear it is Loki but I dare not blame him for such things. I shall have your fortune returned to you and thereafter we can create a new quest in order to get the book back to you. Me: Very well my son. Amazon: Allow me some time to round up my allies and complete this my father. Me: Do it for me Thor, but most importantly do it for the mortals whose destiny (and grades) rely on this book. Amazon: Alas, the treasure has been returned to you. You now need to reinstate your book into your archive so that you may yet receive it soon. I shall have the Valkyrie deliver it to you as fast as their wings can move. Me: Ok so roleplay aside I have my money back and reorder the book? Amazon: haha yes I have refunded you and you need to reorder the book. Me: Great! Amazon: Have you placed the order Me: Let me do that done Amazon: Okay let me edit it for you [...] that good? Me: Wow hooking me up for one day delivery? Sweet! Amazon: Haha yea man gotta get your book asap! Me: I've heard Amazon has great customer service and this just proves it! thanks man Amazon: No problem, is there any other issue or question that I can help you with? Me: Nah that was it. Really appreciate it Amazon: Anytime bro. Have a great day. Goodbye Odin Me: Bye my son.

You would of thought it would of been the first news story but that was Birminghams new John Lewis store

Doing the rounds on Facebook too :-)

Nothing on the news about the murder Central news or Midlands today...

This is now a murder investigation and the person who killed Christian is still at large.

Hi All,This is serious. Please BEWARE! Over the last month I became a victim of a clever 'Eastern European'scam while out shopping. Simply dropping into Tesco's for a bit of shopping resulted in the following...... Don't be naïve enough to think it won't happen to you or your friends. Here's how the scam works:Two very good looking voluptuous 20-21 year-old girls came over to my car as I was packing my shopping into the boot. They both started cleaning my windscreen, their boobs almost falling out of their skimpyT-shirts. When I thanked them and offered them a tip, they said 'No' and instead asked me for a lift to another supermarket. I agreed and they both got in the back seat. On the way, they started undressing, and both got completely in the buff. Then, when I pull over to remonstrate, one of them climbed over into the front seat and started crawling all over my lap, trying to kiss me and touch me intimately, thrusting herself against me. While the other one stole my wallet! I had my wallet stolen May 14th, 19th, 20th, twice on the 25th, 27th, 30th. Also June 3rd, 7th, 10th, 14th and twice yesterday.

Pipe corporation & Red Barn enterprises etc

What interests me is the amount of money needed to finish this project,nearly £600,000 not including the cost of buying it. They have only raised some £110,000 in four years. I'd rather see it knocked down and affordable housing built on the site and so would a lot of residents.

Bit like hook the duck at the fair but easier

Don't ,the path as of when I went down it last week is terrible,overgrown with brambles

It's been sold and bought as a going concern. Will reopen after refurbishment.

We are not a small market town we are and have always been a City

The part of Mr Chips on the corner used to be Ronnie Joynes hairdressers.He managed the ip sisters and was well known in the world of Jazz and was an accomplished Hawaiian guitar player. He married one of the original Bluebell girls troupe.Taught me to play the guitar.

Thanks Glenda.

I have relatives with young children living in one of the flats in Villa Street. Number 70 Villa Street is well known to police as a drug den also used for selling drugs. It was raided by police again about three weeks ago but still drugs are being sold and used. Tonight there are people in the flat fighting smoking weed,drinking etc. What does it take to have this type of scum evicted because my relatives and the residents have had enough.

Every car has to be taxed whether you pay £0 or £1030 (band L Mitsubishi shogun Pinin)

Fish must be biting

You can get great deals in all restaurants. Me n wife are frequent visitors to Miller Carters steakhouse where we can get a main course meal for £7.95 each.Meal and desert for under £11. Zizi always have a 30% off deal during the week too.

Just looked at the planning application, A Hereford Bull statue to be installed along with more seating

You could open a profitable business around Kingsway selling mirrors.

Sadly there will be traffic lights at every junction. Problem is the Council don't know how to build em and motorists don't know how to use em.

Just spoken to her and she says gypsy 's have moved onto the footie pitch on old school lane

My mother in law lives close to this junction and cannot wait for the lines to be painted. Traffic calming with 20 mph speed limit are also needed.

Demolition company has been on the site for two weeks

Good idea..I'll move em 10 feet further up road and see if they move
