Black Ice on Lawrie Park Road this morning - 1st Feb

Be careful out there
LPR is extremely slippery - husband got as far as out of the drive and on to the road before losing control of his motorbike
Some nice passing motorist helped him get it back upright but he's a little second hand so do be careful as it's not gritted

This is a tough one as we have - to my mind at least - 4 great things on our high street: Trattoria Raffaele, Sugahill, The Dolphin and Kirkdale Books

If I were a vulnerable, abused or confused girl, do you really think I'd feel comfortable walking into a prominent High St building housing a clinic to deal with certain, well advertised problems? Actually, I might have done as I am not sure it's really obvious from the frontage what its for... The ...

Hello Susie

It doesnt sound as though you gave him any information he wouldnt have had already and whilst it sounds dubious, he was probably trying his luck

Report the call to the police if it puts your mind at rest and try not to worry
