    Why are Israelis furious?

    I didn't think that Israelis believed in Jesus as the son of God.

    Predictions for 2026

    Mate, you speak out of your butt. If you genuinely didn't want to post anything that would bring you to the attention of the authorities, you would stick to using a VPN and using chat rooms on the dark web.

    Screwfix Prices Then And Now

    I've been using Screwfix for decades, since before there were shops. Since around 1993 I've been ordering via SF Direct and getting deliveries. I am doing a load of tidying up and found a catalogue dating back to Spring 1999. Some of the prices are as follows: 1999 Turboflush macerator...

    Why are Israelis furious?

    I've been saying something similar here and elsewhere for many years.

    Trickle down don't work

    So now all of a sudden it's not to do with the price any more, it's all to do with the ethics of castration? Your argument is all over the place! But, as you've chosen the ethics of castration, let's explore that. Do you eat castrated cows, sheep or pigs? Pork sold in this country is likely...

    Trickle down don't work

    You moaned that M and S sold a turkey for a ton 20. I gave you a much better alternative: a great tasting bird reared well and more importantly you're supporting a family butcher, not a chain. And for far less money yet you're still moaning...

    Trickle down don't work

    Our 10 lb capon from a local family butcher was way cheaper. A bargain at £70.

    What are you having for breakfast?

    Had a capon yesterday. Expensive but, by all accounts, extremely tasty. 10lb bird, with 9 scoffing it. £70. Cooked 30 pigs in blankets, they all went. 3 lads in their 20s...They're like bleeding gannets... Got a nice piece of topside for another day. Only small, nearly £40. Meat is not cheap...

    What have you been doing today?

    Finished Chrimbo dins. Forgot the bleeding sprouts. And the bleeding pigs not yet in blankets, that cost several arms and legs from the local butcher. We'll have them another meal. Got several frozen puds from COOK again this year. They went down well.

    Blocking off an unused 13 amp double socket

    I've been to health centres, GPs surgeries, dentists etc, etc, even hospitals, where they have all been fitted. I have made a point of talking to someone senior in admin in some of those places and explaining, especially with the Multy Kontact sockets where it's not just the earth pin that...

    Penance (2025) is served.

    Us too! We are limping along with ours until the new year. I am hoping to persuade Mrs S to remodel the kitchen with the swift removal of a stud wall. But the area on the other side has a patio door, so I'm not quite sure how to layout the working triangle. The oven is an electric Stoves...

    Is this a party wall or not?

    What a bleeding palaver.

    Blimey, anything that long these days, I tend to be asleep by the end of it! I'm sure you'll agree, it's good to do stuff with our kids, though, even if my eldest nags me to sort out the garage and yours wants to take you to films that you'd rather not see! I know I'm only sniffing the...

    What have you been doing today?

    The usual rush up to Christmas. I get nagged to do all the stuff that has been needing doing for a while. Which is a huge long list as last Christmas I broke my ankle in the middle of getting the lounge ready for redec. So this autumn, we have been getting that ready. It's nearly all ready. We...

    What have you been doing today?

    Christmas of 1984, my sister gave me some home brewed wine, I forget what. Me, being a green 18 year old, thought it was pish. And drank two bottles, on top of a load of beer. I woke up the next day feeling the absolute worst I had ever felt. I remember ringing a neighbour and telling them I...
