My numbers get blocked by my phone not the network and I can block whatever number I like. Is that not true with all handsets?

Maybe I'm doing it wrong but I've had a few which I get told "cannot block".

Certainly the no-number left and the foreign based ones but also some of the 0800/0801's.

Have you tried one of the blocking apps? They do a bit more than the baked options.

I tried Streetview, but I just ended up going round in circles...

it's Bo Hansen that I associate with Brondby... but it also might just be the pre-season tour there at about the same time we bought him? It's all so long ago!

let's just take a moment...

apparently they are not actually houses, as such....
Brøndby has an area of garden allotments where the land is divided into pie segments. The primary purpose is to give city dwellers a space to visit and garden (away from their homes), so with the focus on gardening, the low density is not a problem. Whilst it was never intended for people to live there, and residents are prohibited from living there year-round, the "garden sheds" (not "homes"!) have electricity and toilets etc, and many people live there all summer.

Here's the view from a room taken from the same side of the hotel I stayed in last night. This sort of thing is relatively common around Copenhagen. The photo doesn't really do these particular allotments/summer houses much justice, they're much nicer overall. They currently display a kaleidoscopic array of flowers in bloom. The size of the area covers around that of a football pitch. I found it very therapeutic, beer in hand, sat watching people lovingly tend their gardens. Drew me away from submitting further posts regarding egregious, luggage-mishandling c*nts in the Angry Thread anyway. ;)
