and have seen the car again so it must be fairly local to me.

Is that twice you have failed to get the reg? Jeez, get a GoPro

off on his toes.
What sort of person does that.

Probably someone who saw a cyclist knock down a pedestrian who was looking at her phone, and thought they would go to jail for a year and a half because something on their bike did not conform to the highway code?

Google Charlie Allston for source; I’m sure everyone here will recall.

As a Christian I trust it to Jesus.

Has he given you any advice?

so you could fly very very low and bag a land speed record.

There isn’t a plane that could go 1,000 mph at zero feet.

The Void is good if you are near Orlando. Handy for a rainy day. The NBA experience is rubbish

I want to go back to see the new Star Wars bit, but all the building work at Disney has put me off until 2021

They really don’t look it

Australia’s kicking game was weak. The didn’t want to kick, and when they did it went wrong. You have to look at the coach for that.

Not anymore you can’t, much the same as ‘German-made’ hasn’t been a guarantee of quality for a fair while either.

Actually, I agree that every US built car isn’t a patch on a Euro built quality motor.

Sat in a couple of directors cars at work, one a Tesla S the other an S-class Merc. Both cost late £90k They were poles apart. The Merc was solid and reassuring, the Tesla had a big tv.

Comres had Tories 10pts ahead pre 2017 election.

And they won it. Point?

Quick line speed and an accurate and disciplined defense.

I’d say general discipline. The Japan side were always under control, not at all like the Scots.

but it’s far fetched to claim that Verstappen’s met his match.

Four races on and Albon has scored more points than MaxV. I look like I know what I’m talking about :)

Max can be spectacular, he can also be a clot. Consistency is a strong antidote to that

Time will tell whether he matures into a ‘Works’ driver, or stays at the independents for the rest of his career; fading away like his dad did.

1) That stuff you stand on at the beach can be turned into windows

2) The sky at night is dark (it shouldn’t be, really)

3) The smell behind dog’s ears

The only way you can possibly get into mainstream automotive manufacturing is if you have a genuine USP

Clive Sinclair did with the C5, but it was still never going to sell.

Tesla are held up as the gold standard of electric cars, but if you sit in one and a Merc of the same value they don’t half seem crap in comparison.

And if you say all the value is under the skin, take a look underneath one. The standard of welding, for instance, would not pass muster on the cheapest bike in Halfords.

It’s all marketing; distract the punter with the flappy doors and the big tv, and don’t let them spot how badly the bootlid fits.

They fitted a set of tyres to my car that were the wrong (lower) load rating.

When challenged they said the manufacturer was in the wrong.

Multi-Billion pound company or scally with dirty fingernails? Who to believe…?

For all their balls ups, you’d think they’d be more apologetic

Maybe it’s the beholder?

You expect to see a black face, so that’s what you see?

Arm warmers with sleeveless vest. What on earth was he thinking?

That if he got too hot, he could always take them off?

Staggering time. I think the IAAF are being a bit pissy not allowing the record to stand. It’s no more artificial than running indoors.

I was quite gratified by last night’s fiasco.

I am sick of unrealistic dreamers spending other people’s money with abandon. There’s rarely any payback, never any foreclosure, no risk, no jeopardy.

Last night there was a flash of reality that cockeyed schemes that have no real plan can fall on their faces. To the accompaniment of a few sardonic comments from Kev

I thought the old house needed a new kitchen and a lick of paint and would have done nearly everyone else in the world very nicely.

you’ll struggle to spell (fish) after reading it.

Peasy. Ghoti

Big difference between not paying parking tickets and killing someone

misuse of diplomatic immunity.

It isn’t. I haven’t seen that claimed anywhere. It was the wife of a ‘diplomat’ involved and would not get DI anyway. Someone has made an assumption, it seems

It’s a suspect fleeing the country.

The built-in mount on the 8 would sway it for me; I hate the cradle thing for ‘lesser’ GoPro’s

It makes sense to have a protective case, but a faff to need something for just walking around.

He was absolutely livid…

Apart from being a bit cross, what happened?

Still johnson gets what he craves

Because there’s no Opposition.

Momentum are just as culpable as Bojo, by hogtying the Labour party to that old fool, who hasn’t the wit to see he is a puppet.

There needs to be a big shakeup in the political system, but it’s hard to see how it can be done.

Can there not be a ‘Reasonable Party’? One of sense and considered action?

13.1.1 means I can now sync my photo’s again.

Hoo bleeding Ray

Since I got IOS 13 I can’t get photos to sync with my pc.

Co-incidence?

Seriously? Maybe because not every parent knows what is on the syllabus and how to teach it?

I’ve actually quit coffee apart from one morning cup.

So, to recap, you have not quit anything?

Struggling Wrightbus, whose co-founder Sir William Wright is a prominent Brexit supporter, has been trying to attract a new owner or investment but failed.

And in the meantime the company pissed millions away on a dodgy Religion. Is that the fault of Brexit?

Cox was brilliant. Barking out his put downs in sonorous style. He made the foaming labour chump Sheerman in the horrible suit look as silly as his outfit.

“was there a question in the marshmallow of rhetoric?” No there wasn’t.

No redundancy payout

They will be paid; to statutory levels. Same as anyone else who works for a company that goes bust.

I was on a business trip when the co. I worked for went bust. I had to pay for my own hotel and travel home.

It wasn’t on the news, though.

Hive has two jobs; clock and thermostat.

You’ve replaced the thermostat, but the clock has it’s own ideas. It might work if the clock is demanding heat all the time.

As you don’t seem to know this, get an expert in

I have had a Magnifica for 4 years, and this year it packed up.

I was going to get it serviced at Delonghi but it cost £180 (parts extra) and I would be without it for 3 weeks.

I got a Recon model direct from Delonghi’s store on eBay for £180. I think it might have been new, but a return.

It might be a sad indictment of the disposable society, or an indication that Delonghi’s service prices are way too high.

Look there; there was quite a choice.

apparently she’s been pulling some long hours recently

Those documents won’t shred themselves.

Mine landed yesterday

If they renewed something automatically you must have selected it as an option.

*Sigh*

I’ll leave it to the smug self righteous Microsoft licking shut-in’s who can’t be arsed to understand my comments but have a supercilious put down ready to launch anyway experts then

Different folk put on muscle differently; rules of thumb are notoriously slapdash

he said it’s a mental health illness

100% this. There was a guy on here a few years ago saying what gym stuff he needed to do as he “wanted to be big”

It sounded like a cry for help.

He was advised to do deadlifts IIRC

Because even if the card has expired, Microsoft can still take money from you. Until the end of time.

Due to a wheeze called ‘continuous payment authority’ they can keep billing you forever.

Don’t ever, ever, use a credit card to verify that you are an adult.

There is another way using email. Do that

Otherwise you are giving Microsoft access to your card; even when it is out of date.

‘friend’ has asked the instructor to reconsider this proposal in the interests of maintaining a customer.

She won’t be a customer any longer if she’s passed.

having to keep up a cheery disposition

That doesn’t ring true. My 15 year old son is the most miserable bugger, and he doesn’t have the justification of any family trauma to give him cause. I have appropriated the term ‘funsponge’ off here to describe his demeanour

Teens generally are bloody awful. Teens who actually have stuff to deal with must be utterly dreadful.

Are you in charge of giving out licences?
Do you think watching some Youtube videos makes you qualified?

He’s as shaky as anything and then falls down a cliff. You don’t need to be Columbo to come to a reasonable conclusion.

is it safe to assume we can blame Brexit for all our woes?

Doesn’t matter; it’ll get the blame anyway.

Of all the places Alonso would be welcome, Ferrari would be bottom of the list.

Amoebic Dysentery would be better received
