Never gonna happen. He's just not got it in him.

This type of show is always destined to become stale. The format is always the same, there's nothing different or interesting or novel than the first series which was interesting different and novel. Now it's the same every time and "contestants" have taken the opportunity to give themselves some TV time. They're just dull. It's just dull. The same can be said about any other reality TV series. Unless you're a bit of an airhead.

This is what royally hacks me off about posters on this forum. We have some of the most negative people in here. We could sign Haaland and there'd still be those that would criticise because he hasn't scored enough goals.

You're not wrong and it's good in principle, but who would invest?

I'm a bit bored with this now. However: Wordle 1,300 3/6 ⬜🟩⬜⬜🟩 🟩🟩⬜🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Keeps me interested and challenged to get it in one. .

Well, for me it's down to fond memories, I guess. It just seems that the indoor markets are dull, no vibrancy, selling poor (or even fake) products. They feel a bit like the old Donnington Market or a car boot sale.

I get this and it seems to make sense to me as someone who lives in Hinckley and is therefore County with local Borough . However I do get a bit concerned when this type of proposal seems to be political. I'm a natural cynic, though. Nothing like this is straightforward and simple without gain for someone somewhere or other.

I think what character the market still has would be completely lost. Having been to Coventry market, which is indoors, it is a soulless place. No one calling out "get yer fresh (insert fruit or veg) 10 forra quid" like they do here. We've got the indoor market selling meat and fish etc. That works. Everything else should be as it is IMO.

I couldn't as I had one hand on the horn button and the other on the steering wheel. I did it in my head, though. Several times.

I think Kier and Elon are more often referred to by their surnames only. Also it seems those that the public like are referred to by first names such as Trent, and those that are generally disliked are referred to by their surname like Putin, Trump, Musk etc.

But you'll need room for a few hand car washes as well.

And pick up the drugs for the "clients".

Thanks. It wasn't as if she slowed but kept moving, she came to a complete stop.

You're treading a very fine line there. In fact the first tag joined in 2005 apparently, but has no posts and zero content on their profile yet has 3 badges. I wonder what they were for?

@z-layrex used to be a regular. Also there was a poster who was a bona-fide doctor and another who was a police officer but I can't remember their names.

Hopefully your opening sentence was tongue in cheek. I sounded my horn in context of making the other driver "aware of my presence and position on the road", to quote the Highway Code. I am nice.

That took some reading. Like chewing on an overcooked steak.

The idiot I was behind on a main 40mph A47 who randomly decided to brake to allow another car to take a right turn across the flow of traffic. I had to brake hard and blasted my horn only for the driver in front to put a hand up in a "what's you're issue" gesture. That kind of thing results in rear ending and it's a fail in a driving test exam.

Key words. I have a mate who is in the police service. He tells me that there are not enough random patrols to deal with this kind of thing and they consider them too trivial when they are more fully occupied dealing with people with MH issues and domestic disputes or "dommies" as they call them. The local police teams will show a presence when there is a targeted deterrent action taking place such as a focus on shoplifting or non-violent crimes or anti-social behaviour or moped/motorcycle thefts etc but, day to day, they struggle to manage.

No doubt a masterpiece in terms of visuals and atmosphere. For me, too long and convoluted. But then I struggle to suspend disbelief. Therefore anything based in fact, is my go to.

I have just read these articles, and it seems I misremembered, or didn't take much notice of his tenure as SoS for America or his "diplomacy": Henry Kissinger: Good or Evil? - POLITICO Magazine The Bad Thing Henry Kissinger Did That You Don’t Even Know About | The New Republic

I'll let you have my cheese grater: Some scrap collector once fly tipped a faecal macerator on my front garden because they realised no recycling place would take it. It was still full of wet, mashed up bodily waste. "A macerator pump, also known as a macerator toilet, toilet-waste grinder or sewer pump, is simply a collecting tank in which a pump has been placed".

I'm sure there's several opinions and I'm not expert or informed enough to really know. I might need to read/listen more, as long as the tenets put forward are completely independent and entirely based on historical facts without prejudice or innuendo

Wasn't he one of the good guys?

What? Explanations and examples. Did we not lead the world in so many areas of innovation, science, manufacturing, health and welfare, way back in history? This was not at the expense of other countries. I don't dispute we were involved in the slave trade but to say the country "was built" on it is a bit disingenuous.
