....and now for something entirely 'crazy', dazzlenation..and a bit 'sci-fi' in relation to foretelling the future or not as the case, maybe - regarding recent 'rainfalls' worldwide...something that helen browne and her boyfriend 'dave' had thought up at that high wycombe biznez college, all of those decades ago, now....lol....in short, browne had intoned "the rain in spain falls mainly on the plain"...to then to code in etc etc.....afterwards and as a memory aid....she had coded in the following:

ROC - republic of china

ROE - republic of england

ROW - republic of wales

ROS - republic of.....well, they had all laughed, in the end - browne's gang at that college....the republic of the CIA....in relation to the republic of scotland.

ROI - republic of 'paddy fields' which had made browne laugh so much etc etc...the republic of ireland....as it goes, eh?

oh and immediately after i had posted the above....'prestige' was to hit my phone, again, whilst claiming to be working on behalf of chelmer housing  - with another of their 'pest' calls (obviously, i didn't answer) and then whoever-it-was then left a text upon my ansaphone....not the same  telephone number, i might add, as to what i had formerly found out was 'prestige's' real telephone number....anyway, this is the number that had called my mobile today: 07538 495577....and the text?....'hello this is prestige calling on behalf of CHP' etc etc....see previous posts....and so let me see...are numbers beginning with 07538 also becoming 'credit card scam' numbers etc etc?....and having checked the ansaphone message - it had apparently been 'christine' from 'prestige' again....anyway, having emailed CHP barry about 'christine's persistent calls - I've had to do so again, today....hmmm....let me guess...she doesn't really work for 'prestige'?....and well, it's up to CHP to sort it out, isn't it....i'm not going to ring up etc etc....see previous posts....go figure.
