We have a bit in my town where there's a two lane smaller roundabout, however it then leads in just a relatively short distance to a three lane junction at a larger roundabout. The three lanes are 'turn left' then 'turn left or straight on' then 'turn right'. When it's busier it can be a bit...

We have always had exceptionally wealthy people, exceptionally poor people, and those in the middle. And we will always have exceptionally wealthy people, exceptionally poor people, and those in the middle. Yeah yeah folk talk about the gap widening between rich and poor. Perhaps. What we...

I don't understand what you mean by 'they passed me a long way back'? If they've passed you, they've passed you. Their vehicle would then be in front? You then say 'they shouldn't have passed that far back' but again, whether they were right or wrong to pass you on the inside, once they've...

Like most politicians then?

Send that to Tim Vine, he might use it in his act ;)

Mr Healey said he could not accept the settlement in the Defence Investment plan because it 'falls well short of what is required for... the country at this dangerous time'. https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-15891523/Defence-Starmer-funding-Ed-Miliband-cut-Net-Zero-spending.html

I get your point. Today they go for group A, then B, then C and so on until they eventually turn on themselves. However, I stand by my earlier points.

Eh? Can you retype in a way that is comprehensible.

AI will sort it all out.

But surely a large part of life for all of us is dealing with the socioeconomic conditions of the day? If post boomer generations were transported back in time to be the boomer generation, they would welcome any of the better parts with open arms, no? And I'd assert the boomer generation...

You're quite right. Anyway must dash, I want to reply to a thread on a tech forum, someone's asking if they're better buying a VHS or Betamax video recorder :)

It's not rocket science is it. Years back migrants came in numbers of low tens of thousands. My dad (Indian) was one of them. He came across to work via legal routes and worked. Hard. He did his best to integrate, socialised with the local Scottish community (that's how my Scottish mum met...

They nationalised a ship yard, fine in principal, I'm all for certain things being renationalied. However the original £97m cost for two new ferries rose to £500m+. To think the Clyde used to be the envy of the world for ship building :( https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c62n1d6dd4qo

They (SNP) are still fixated by independence, that never really changed. I suppose it's no surprise given it's their very reason for existence i.e. to deliver an independent Scotland. They have a significant voter base who'll vote for them almost no matter what because those voters desperately...

Lol.

In my junk/spam email folder I've received this, from a Mr X: Your email account was selected for a donation of 6,500,000 Euros. Contact us for more info That's it. Nothing about being an African King, nothing about being from the FBI. Obviously I've contacted them for more info as I want my...

To be fair, even younger generations who work and lead busy lives have time to vote. It's hardly something that takes hours to complete.

You don't need to be a medical expert to know many people on this planet do not have that sort of resolve.

You're wasting your time. You'll never convince potheads they'd be better off not smoking the stuff. We're wrong, they're right. As an aside, was watching a news thing a few days back and the police were saying drug driving is now a bigger issue than drink driving (I know they're all drugs...

Putting everything else aside, this is your solution in a nutshell. You have the sharp outmost edge of your (upwards) incline drive meeting the sharp inside edge of the public footpath. We had exactly this issue in a house I lived in years back. The drive was part of the original build so had...
