    Brother's Sky Glass Is A Complete Pain

    It's probably an eco standby setting. There will probably be an option to use more power in standby to make it quicker.

    Brother's Sky Glass Is A Complete Pain

    I think I have found the answer to this bit. It's a motion detection thing. Can be turned off. Otherwise make some movements to stop it happening. Maybe try eating a cheese sandwich.

    Bounce or no bounce?

    For some, I think it's mainly about getting one over on the "lefties". Sometimes, I try to convince myself that doesn't matter who wins. But the Ukraine example really encapsulates the problem. We don't know where he stands and he often changes his mind. Diplomacy requires consistency and...

    Bounce or no bounce?

    Once again, Trump shoots himself in the foot. After weeks of him lowering expectations for the Kamala Harris interview, she came across as calm, serious, and unflappable, but also very relatable. And she was totally in command. Tim Walz only got to speak for about thirty seconds. I loved her...

    Bounce or no bounce?

    It's the American way! Like Trump in 2016.

    Bounce or no bounce?

    She isn't :) Can you show a single comment she has made where she "talks up" the wall? Try this explanation. If you can't understand this then, like ajohn above, I will have to give up on you. https://www.newsweek.com/maga-blasts-kamala-harris-bipartisan-border-bill-1946266

    Bounce or no bounce?

    All of it. She has always been opposed to the wall. But it was included as part of a massive bipartisan compromise bill. The Republicans wanted some bits, like the wall, she wanted other bits, like more border guards. Sometimes you need to take the rough with the smooth. We don't really get this...

    No tax rises for working people.

    I don't understand that. Surely as crude prices fall, the percentage of the pump price as fuel duty rises?

    Well played Miss Raducanu

    I believe she has more than a modicum of talent. She strikes the ball beautifully and her speed, movement and positioning are exceptional. I love this kneeling backhand winner she played at Wimbledon. They also say she often outfoxes most opponents tactically. But I think she has a serious...

    Well played Miss Raducanu

    This young lady continues to be a mystery to me. She went out in the first round of the US Open and was so down afterwards it was awful to watch the press conference. The main diagnosis was that she wasn't properly match sharp. She had chosen not to play for three weeks beforehand on the US...

    No tax rises for working people.

    That's sad to hear. Is there any change in particular you are worried about? I don't know that much about pensions, but I didn't realise that any such change was mooted.

    Bounce or no bounce?

    The limited number of polls since the Democratic convention are giving mixed messages as to whether Kamala Harris got a bounce or whether it's been cancelled out by Kennedy voters switching to Trump. Harris is giving her first major interview today alongside Tim Walz. I think it's with Dana...

    No tax rises for working people.

    This is what they actually said. I believe my interpretation is the more sensible one.

    No tax rises for working people.

    I always understood that to mean there would be no rise in the rate of income tax or national insurance.

    What have you been doing today?

    Just over a decade ago I bought fifty silver Britannias as a bit of fun. I sold them yesterday to a big online place. But they counted and paid me for fifty two! I rang and told them they were wrong but they said it wasn't possible. It makes you wonder how careful they actually are.

    Gant

    Have they been stiffing people on pre-payment meters again?

    Gant

    That's a good point. I've not noticed him for ages. When I first started posting on GD and I was trying to get to know everyone and work out where they stood, there was gant and gone, and I often got them confused. Then gone became fillyboy, or turned back into fillyboy, I believe. But has gant...

    Can Kamala Harris win?

    Now then, now then, it would be easier if you just said. I'm also intrigued.

    Can Kamala Harris win?

    He is not a "convicted rapist" because he has not been found guilty of a crime. It was a civil trial.
