Attention craft type people out there!!

Does anyone have a use for pre-loved souvenir leather bookmarks?

The leather side is printed, obvs, but the suede side not so effectively each one is a strip of coloured suede

I'll send a bunch to anyone who wants them. Free to a good home. Ideas?

Oxford people - check your Congestion Charge Permits!
I've had two deducted on dates when I never took my car out.
And according to fb I'm not alone.
(And good luck digging down through the appalling County Council website to find the info)

FURY INDUCING aspects of modern life: Buy tickets from one place (Gigs & Tours), they tell me I must download an app for the venue (an O2) so I can get my tickets. The O2 app tells me I must ALSO HAVE a Ticketmaster (spit spit) login to get my hands on my tickets.

Anyway - Support live music!

An upside-down VW Beetle has been on the side of the road between Farmoor and Swinford Toll Bridge for so long now without the police taking it away that I decided it needed its own Google Maps entry ... and it's been accepted ... and now it's got a 5 star review!!!

The Ig Nobel is incredible , one year an Indian guy won it for calculating the average surface area of an elephant and during his acceptance they had an elephant hold up a sign with the surface area of the scientist on it, they do showbiz better than the Oscars
Video: a Japanese scientist was attacked by flies while giving the acceptance speech for his Ig Nobel Prize-winning research paper that proved painting Zebra-like stripes on cows led to a decrease in biting fly attacks.
