I was thinking about being out and about with friends, family or alone – shopping, seeing something etc and electing to voluntarily step in specifically to eat.

There’s thousands of different scenarios about what, how and where we eat. I’ve done the Tescos meal deal, homemade packed lunch eaten in the park, car, office, boat, campervan ect, ect. Eaten in greasy spoons and Michelin stared restaurants. And yes had a pint with a meal in a Spoons, it all depends on the time and place. Sticking your nose up at Spoons but more importantly people who use them makes someone an insufferable snob, and that isn’t a good thing.

Only because most (non-immigrant or descendants thereof) people in this country can’t speak a second language beyond “two beers please.” It’s all relative.

I’ll have you know I’m fluent in at least seven languages 😉

dos cervezas por favor
deux bières s’il vous plait
dvě piva prosím
twee biertjes alstublieft
zwei Bier bitte
due birre per favore

You might as well go and shout into the night.

Reminded me of this cartoon 😁

Aren’t the dimensions listed on Ikea’s website? They’re usually pretty good with that sort of thing.

Indeed they are 👍

Mooman isn’t a GT fan so wouldn’t have been there. He was out on an E-mtb somewhere, all he’s doing now is raving on about how great it was 🙄.

My MIl used to think I was wonderful, largely for taking Mrs taxi of her hands which freed up a badly needed bedroom for them. 😂

quite a few people now have asserted the existence of “overwhelming evidence” over the last couple of pages, but no-one has actually provided any yet.

There isn’t a single silver bullet of evidence, just an accumulation from multiple different sources. Just like a court case you put them all together and form a conclusion one waybor the other. Overwhelmingly the evidence points to his existence as a historical character.
The evidence as it exists can’t simply be put down on a forum post. If your genuinely interested you can use the Wiki link I posted as a start for your own research.

About as annoying as the assumption that those who don’t believe are ignorant and ill informed.

I don’t think anyone, least SR would claim a lack of faith is ignorance. But failing to recognise Jesus as a historical character suggests a wilfull rejection of the evidence. Everyone however is entitled to an opinion ignorant or not.

Anyway untill SR arrives with an undoubtedly interesting theologic history lesson, Wikipedia’s take on Jesus the historical character.

As a former leader of the opposition he was bound to get one sooner or later. Corbyn will be offered one at some point, whether he accepts it is another matter.

 do actually live in Spain 🙂

Your allowed 😉

If I’m understanding it correctly, people are running fake driving test centres in northern Ireland and issuing fake licences???

I thought this but can’t find any online evidence of such.
But it seems to be a thing with gullible people being sold the “real thing” just pay a bit more to cut out the fuss. Although this guy’s defense wasn’t believed.

And you can buy liscenses online without it being made clear they are worthless fakes. Although the web site name gives you a clue.

I agree with moomam, taxi jnr has an Aspergers diagnosis and watching GM on tv I didn’t get a sense of it. Although it can display very differently from person to person.

98 rides

163 hrs

1,874 mls

142,874 ft ascent

I don’t log my general riding to the shops ect mileage, so that’s me actually going out for a ride. Milage about 50/50 mtb road.

Why are people kidding themselves using kilometres ? Unless of course you actually live and ride on the continent.

You take your dog for a walk not a ride.

when my mother broke some news to me a couple of years ago, something they had been hiding from me for 50 years,

Hughie Green is your real dad ?

Putting your name on your frame means you are delusional and very selfish in bed.

It’s not that these people are being selfish in bed, it is just that they have very small willies.

This is easily disproved, but perhaps not on this forum 😉

Not sure if the Communism Musuem is still open (near to Wencelas Square).

It still is we were there in August, it’s more a long read than exhibs although there are some. Very anti communist in tone but pretty interesting. It was Taxi jnr’s favourite thing in Prague.

The problem isn’t the sign, it’s the (incorrect) blind faith people have for sat nav.

Definitely, you can report things like this to TomTom here.

But you’d also have to perhaps pay for an update every now and again.

 So if I won the euro millions could I hire armed police that would shoot anyone who tried to encroach on my semi detached house.

That would be a no, it’s up to the police to decide if someone needs an armed guard.

The blue sign says it all really. If your not a bus bike or taxi you’ll get a fine. Satnavs should update pretty soon, all the bus, bike taxi lanes/routes come up as such on mine in Cardiff.

I’ve always liked American folk.
Tift Merritt is worth a listen.

, I don’t know many people who would describe Corbyn and McDonell as centre left like the comment above.

I’ve only heard one person describe them as such, tj.

I’ve booked private taxi from/to airport. Speed….

It’ll take twice as long 3 times in rush hour. But as it’s booked go with it.

Get your wallet out, lifes to short to live without magic 😁😁

Frontpage

Very much use public transport to get from the airport. It’s by far the cheapest quickest method. Its a bus then metro, all explained here.

Very proud of a lifetime ban i was given at a Tesco near me for taking my bike in.

Is this connected to……

I was leaving my local Tesco Express a few weeks ago when a guy tried to take a road bike in. The security guard did the same thing but the bloke with the bike insisted he was taking it in and started saying things like don’t you know how much this is worth etc etc. He made himself look like a massive bellend 

🤔🤔

Good post p-jay.

Drj, has your wife applied for settled or pre-settled status? She has plenty of time left to apply. It’s all explained here:

Yes really this, why do you think it would be a problem Drj ?

 Disorderly handover is how you end up with a Corbyn in the first place.

From the Guardian article, it’s not how many within Labour see it.

Despite the overwhelming evidence, team Corbyn denies completely that it was the leader who repelled voters. Corbyn, when acknowledging Labour’s defeat in the early hours of Friday, refused to accept any personal responsibility for his second general election loss, and said he would stay in office during a “period of reflection”, before stepping down. He, shadow chancellor John McDonnell and party chairman Ian Lavery all insisted Brexit had drowned out Labour’s popular policy agenda, and that the leader had not been the problem. This has infuriated MPs and defeated candidates, who see it as evidence of the Corbynistas’ determination to hold on to the levers of power in order to install a successor in exactly the same mould as Corbyn who will deliver more of the same.

and she’ll probably be out of a job 🙁

Well I take that back, Cardiff North MP Anna McMorrin held onto her marginal seat with an increased majority . I put it down to all the canvassing she did with the adorable Cadi 😍 who couldn’t vote for her 😁😁

[/url]

If the exit polls are right then I suggest that this conservative majority is down to parliament blocking May’s comparatively moderate Brexit deal and has played right into the hands of the extreme Brexiteers.Parliament obstructed the referendum result and the public have responded.

My feelings exactly. I wrote to my MP despite being a remain voter, asking her to back May’s deal because I felt if it didn’t go through eventually something worse would. Looks like thats going to happen and she’ll probably be out of a job 🙁

There’s a Steiner school at the end of my road. Parents look normal middle class eco aware type people. The kids just look like kids 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

sonic boom from an RAF valley jet right by them ? very unlikely, just a guess…

That was my guess, but concentrated in to small an area to have fallen from the sky.

 I took a prescription to Boots a few weeks ago from the vet.

Interesting, currently in discussions with my vet over pain relief medication for our dog.

 one of the medicines she was prescribed turned out to be identical to an off-the-shelf human one for 1/10th the cost. 

I’m sure vets were stopped from using identcal human options. They have to use specific animlal ones that have gone through all the tests. Hence the cost.

No from me, I normally buy something in a colour I like. As long as it’s fit for purpose I’ll get used to it.

An explanation, sort of about the piece.

 but I thought her ancestors had been proved? No?

Tenuous.

The DNA analysis found that while the vast majority of her ancestry is European, Ms. Warren likely had a Native American ancestor six to 10 generations back. Critics including the president said that showed a tenuous link to Native American lineage.

“I can no longer call her Pocahontas, because she has no Indian blood,” Mr. Trump, who has mocked her with that name, said after the test. “She doesn’t qualify.”

But Trump continuing being a dick isn’t tenuous.

Info about Vets salaries.

As a newly-qualified vet, your average starting salary will be around £30,000.With further training and experience at a small animal practice you could earn £43,200, while in large animal practices this can rise to £44,184.Senior vets with over 20 years’ experience can earn up to £72,360.Experienced vets employed in industry earn around £64,870.

So not big money, certainly not after a 5yr degree course.
Some who have their own perhaps multiple practices will earn more, but then their buisness people not just vets.

the action failed because the jury wasn’t convinced that he’d suffered the scale of “loss” of reputation that he was alledging.

The damages he was seeking were definitely OTT. But if I was a juror that would be discounted, I’d look at the core claim and hope “appropriate” damages were awarded. As mentioned that might just be a token amount.
