    Anyone who doesn’t see riding like this in these areas as a problem need only look at the camping bans to see where it can end up.

    Or do i take it, then still go to the second interview then if i get offered that job I leave the first one, possibly after only a few weeks?

    Yes, do this. Might seem shitty but always keep in mind that the employer would drop you without a second thought if it benefited them.

    Prepared to be surprised by how busy it can be compared to available facilities along the route. You might have left it too late to book accommodation.

    Go for it, it might end up being the job of your dreams and I can’t see what you have to lose even if it doesn’t work out. No point waiting for something else to come along, it might not for a long time and it’s easier to find another job when you already have one if that time should come.

    From trumps (and supportes) point of view this is a great move. These 4 women had started causing the democrats problems and the view amongst the more established democrats was they were getting too big for their boots and needed put back in their box. A couple days onslaught by trump later and the democrats have been forced to back the 4 women to the hilt and they have now become the face of the party in the run up to an election. How many floating voters will now be put off voting for these ‘commie’ democrats compared to voting for trump cause he is racist? I’ll bet a lot more.

    The lack of a sufficient soil base means that there are no trees on the hillsides, except at the lowest levels.

    The tree line in Scotland is only around 600m.

    If she is in West Midlands and isn’t a white man she might be top of the list.

    By 2021, West Midlands Fire Service wants 60 per cent of new recruits to be women, and 35 per cent to be from black and minority ethnic groups.

    But surely the fact the dogs descended from the pack of wolves then that DNA must still be in them – certain traits that have been kept in the background ready to come forward once again? They aren’t going to evolve into foxes?

    And the apocolypse only took out humans everything else is fine, plenty of deer, hare and rabbit to eat.

    nature has already designed the best dog….a wolf

    That’s along the line of my original thinking – humans couldn’t have done a better job than nature could they? Maybe a handful of similar yet different species would come about at first due to different terrain and climate but with a lot of crossover in locations bordering different regions a dominant species would eventually emerge.

    Credit score is linked to individuals, not addresses, AFAIK.

    The last time I looked at my credit report online fairly sure it had a linked addresses section.

    I’ve thought about it myself on occasion but can’t help but think the amount of time I’d save painting would be spent cleaning up instead.

    Access rights extend to cycling. Cycling on hard surfaces, such as widepaths and tracks, causes few problems. On narrow routes, cycling may cause problems for other people, such as walkers and horse riders. If this occurs, dismount and walk until the path becomes suitable again. Do not endanger walkers and horse riders: give other users advance warning of your presence and give way to them on a narrow path. Take care not to alarm farm animals, horses and wildlife. If you are cycling off-path, particularly in winter, avoid:

    •going onto wet, boggy or soft ground; and
    •churning up the surface.

    or I just don’t see an issue in calling a take away a chinky.

    I wish you luck. The last time someone made that assertion on STW, the Professionally Offended By Proxy comments ran to about five pages.

    It’s instant dismisal at my place of work for using that term in the same way.

    This is not an example of responsible access. Neither are the bits going off the edge of the clearly defined made up path onto softer ground during the earlier descent.

    Wait until after the next election and certain states begin talks to secede (doesn’t matter who wins the losers will be sore). The resulting civil war will weaken them and they’ll be ripe for an invasion. Too bad it will be Russia doing the invading though – they’ve got to help their friend – a humanitarian intervention.

    England leads the world again in tolerance!

    In 2013, he was given a posthumous royal pardon for his 1952 conviction for gross indecency following which he was chemically castrated. He had been arrested after having an affair with a 19-year-old Manchester man.

    What about a normal fan sitting blowing air over a huge ice cube?

    Not going to win any awards for style or quietness but it doesn’t half shift some air and will cool a room down quickly.

    But for the velcro sanding discs do all manufacturers conform to the punched 8 hole pattern?

    Vast majority yes. Never actually used one that doesn’t – but then I haven’t used a festool one but you are not going to be worrying about them they are £££’s!

    These are cheap and work 60, 80, 120 and 240 grit available in packs of 10 for £1.76.

    Will it be easier to get pads for the Makita?

    If by pads you mean the velcro sanding discs they will both take the same 125mm ones. If you mean the actual base the sanding discs velcro onto then you will be able to get spares from makita easy enough – no idea about erbauer though

    I never trust a passenger. Do people actually use their passengers to help them drive?

    Yes, rarely but it happens. Can’t quite see to the left at a junction, passenger can so lets you know it’s clear – proceed with caution.

    I’d guess that most people have or will at some point.

    49/50. Apparently if your view is blocked by other cars when emerging from a junction you should rely on the reflections in a shop window to see traffic rather than ask a passenger!

    We got a load of branded mugs at work a little while ago. They were removed again shortly afterwards when it was discovered that when filled with boiling water they had a propensity to explode (with hilarious consequences). I’m guessing yours are of a similarly high quality.

    I’ve seen this twice before in the same office, two batches of branded mugs were all garbage and either handles cracked off or whole mug broke up when hot liquid was put in. One lady was wearing open toe sandals and badly burned her foot.
