plus much better banter.

I hate Tesco mainly as you get assaulted by the “special offers” on the way in which are usually obesity educing snack foods. They have slowly but surely eroded their “core” market of foodsuffs to sell just about everything which means they are now jack of all trades master of none.

Ofcom getting involved.. Guardian Linkage

You peaked at that statement.

Does seem a bit of a pointless regulation

Not really, if it makes them more efficient then all the better.

Dyson has got a point regarding landfill of bags though.

Are you 100% sure there is no HDMI slot on your TV? I have an ancient Sony one and I had to remove a side panel to get to the HDMI port.

I look elsewhere after reading this on the listing:

“We are a small hire company who sell on there older vehicles”

Something like 115000 calories in 15 kg of fat

I thought 1g of Fat was 9cal? If so that’d be 135,000 cals?

or 54 days of 2,500 RDA for adult males 8O

Think I’ve found a new author to get caught up in!

You are so very lucky, I wish I could forget all his stuff then start over again fresh.

Make sure you give his non sci-fi stuff a read, it’s just plain old “Iain Banks” rather than “Iain M Banks” when he wrote them.

If you have Netflix then:

House of Cards
Orange is the New Black
Trailer Park Boys

just finished ‘consider phlebas’- the first (?) culture novel.

It probably takes a 2nd read to get the most from it but I think his other Culture novels are all much better. Player of games & Excession are both great for showing the vast power (when pushed) of such a “benign” race..

James Blish – “Cities In Flight” is an absolute classic but seems to have been overlooked by many.

There is a whole series of “Sci-Fi Masterworks” that have been (re)published, you’d not go wrong with any of them Wiki Linkage

A prize goes to the best caption for that picture of Cliff with Tony Blair.

(alleged) Child …. with child killer.

and I’m convinced it’s intentionally misleading.

Of course it is, it’s a total con.

Supermarkets et al sign up to the voluntary traffic light scheme then purposely abuse it by doing this sort of bollocks.

The only way I know of is to pay for it I’m afraid.

It’s a right PITA, as it was great having the calendar on my Android phone sync with the outlook one. I might end up getting the company to pay for it.

Exactly how much of the calories in cashew nuts can the body break down?

I think this event needs more people like that.

It’s very good as a media centre and then there is GTA… :wink:

Down for me, I checked with website checker[/url] and it says it’s fine so glad to hear someone else is having issues and that my ebay account has not been hacked! :-)

Pretty poor for a (serving?) police officer to be writing off an entire group in society as being a ‘waste of space’.

Not really, it’s well known that Police are bigoted, insular racists :wink:

Caught this last night, it’s well worth a watch – even in the funny language :-)

Very inspirational.

From the BBC article linked by SurroundedbyHills..

2% of US adults say they are atheists

That’s mental, that can’t be right Shirley?

After 8 months of commuting, I finally managed to resist the urge to go quick this morning and got 61.8mpg out of my 2.0TDI A3 Sportback Quattro. I usually get 53mpg on the same commute so I need a spreadsheet to show me how much I’ll save per year on my 28 mile each way commute….

OK, here goes :D

Assuming a 46 week year that would give you 12,880 miles per year.
Current average price per gallon of diesel is £6.11, you would save £211.43 per year at the 61.8mpg value..

They have all the series of Trailer Park Boys, which is one of my favourite comedies ever.

someone has to do the guy with sealant all over his drive, and the track pump.

come on, lets see it…

^^THIS!! With added badger logo on the van..

If you want something on the cheaper side this one is perfect – been using mine for over a year camping etc and it lives in the boot of the car.

Landmann Piccolino

A bit of styling over the tunnel!

Is the corse going to be part of the games legacy?

Yes, it’s actually been open to the public for ages.

Back to the race, it’s looking like a good battle for 2nd spot although Batty looks like she’s piloting a barge due to her size..

Only the start/finish and a couple of techy sections are ticketed.

Arse! I never knew this, I just assumed you needed a ticket to watch any of it.

I’ve never bothered with the books, worth a punt then?

What will be the equivalent “Peak STW has been reached”?
