Just caught the tail end of what's on his show today, and that's going to be covered.

Any well informed people on here might want to add to the show.

"Any well informed people on here might want to add to the show listen to something less irritating, such as a heavily scratched Crazy Frog CD."

FTFY

Jeremy Vine show. Tub thumping central. Every man with a grudge/agenda/self opinionated point of view goes on there, and solves nothing.

Yes, but the subject ("Jeremy Vine") wasn't very helpful, plus it's in the Chat Forum. So not the sort of thread I bother looking at.

One of our own will be offering a sane voice in amongst the swivel eyed nimby loons.

Good luck Pook.

Pook is far too composed and well reasoned in such matter but I'd love to hear

Red sock
NIMBY
Kinder trespass
Timber Bell

Any other suggestions?

Well done, Pook!

We've had STRAVA already...🙂

Now the public can phone in and demonstrate why a benign dictatorship is the only way forward.....

Can someone please give me a rough idea how far I have to whizz through the Sounds app playback so I don't have to listen to the WHOLE of the Jeremy Vine show please. 👍 Ta.

Never had a problem with walkers out on the hills. Add a dog to the equation and the owners develop the same pack territorial instincts.

There's a park I regularly ride through, where more times than not, someone out taking their pet for shit has got something to say. Like I'm a mobile complaints department and all public space is now their pet's toilet and playground. I don't live in the genteel home counties where it's all jolly hockey sticks though.
