How extraordinary. Is this the same phenomenon as street running, or wall climbing or road running? I am very sure there is a name for this. Didn't Madonna make a video featuring young people enjoying themselves in this way? I seem to remember she did...
Oh - Hang on - FREE running! Phew!!

And here was me thinking it was just Mr Sharpe carrying out a few late night repairs to my roof
Are we not supposed to be encouraging our kids to get off their X-boxes and do something active outdoors ?
I wonder if the poilis have been to Oor Graham?
"Nick Clegg told Liberal Democrats to "stop looking back" and start "shouting our achievements from the rooftops" in a speech to rally party activists."
Love the way that most of the images or footage isn't in, or anywhere near, Nairn. Let's not glamourise this, it's just a bunch of young loons jumping on and off folks roofs and it's only a matter of time when one of them does themselves, or one of the roofs, an injury.
Ah well, young blood will out, one way or t'other. I for one would gladly sacrifice a tile or two, if it keeps them off the harder stuff. Perhaps I will put a mattress out for them. Call me an old fashioned sentimentalist, if you will. Toodle Woo. P xx
Pookie, you're lowering your admirable high standards by trying to catch young loons out for a night on the tiles with the irresistible offer of your mattress! If my bones weren't so old I too would be dancing in the moonlight upon your ample roof
Not entirely sure but guessing you were saying something nice, anyway, whatever - please listen to this lovely band, let's get them to come to Nairn. P xx
