Beyond parody as they say.
Going out in my call of duty outfit tomorrow, now confident I'll be alright.
That lake stinks to be fair. It's embarrassing to see how the locals have used the lake and the feeding canal as a dumping ground for all their crap. I walked there once and the lane alongside the railway track had loads of asbestos waste just dumped on the side, crumbling and flaky it was not in a good condition.
That was Wednesday.
Armed cops arrested a guy in St Mellons today (Fri) around lunchtime - chopper overhead, hand guns and machine guns were seen by my wife and daughter coming back from shopping. some guy in a car coming out of a close was surrounded woith much shouting and gun pointing, luckily he gave up quietly.
Imagine what might have happened if someone in the USA tried a similar stunt! The phrase "shoot first and ask questions later" comes to mind.
The lake is full of fish as is the reen or feeder that runs into it , some big carp and tench in thereQuote:

I haven't been there since last September. They were doing some work dredging and so on. Some old couple had their fence burnt down just by the feeder during the last dry summer. They were completely distraught and scared at the time.Quote:

You'd see a lot of people fishing there at certain points in the year. But, there were some sorts of warnings in place about the water and blue algae last June I think.
Erm, this is what the BBC link in the OP is referring to.Quote:

The incident I related happened Friday lunchtime on Willowbrook Drive, about a mile and a half away.
Erm, well it was just after 7am this morning, cut me some slack for Christ’s sake:hehe:Quote:
