I'm moving there so I can be a homosexual Mexican cat.

I would have thought that the measure of capacity to understand actions and consequences under the Mental Capacity Act would have some bearing on the decision.

He's not my mate. I was merely relaying what my SiL told us. She knows him, I don't.

And the owner is suffering too. Not just with his job but the guilt and grief from losing his 2 best friends. He's pretty much alone now. Is that enough for you?

Was it in your kitchen? What did you do? For reference:

Had exactly this earlier today, twice. Waiting to join a roundabout waiting for cars to pass. I started to move when I thought there was a gap as the car from the right was indicating to exit to the junction before mine, only to continue past it and then exit to my left. The car immediately behind did exactly the same thing. Both were taxis btw. They drive for a living. How can they be so universally bad at it.

Because they're all round @davieG's gaff.

Just shows there no accounting for taste.

A friend was having a difficult time mentally with stress at work so decided to take his 2 dogs for a walk. This was Monday. He returned home an hour or so later. His mind was so preoccupied with what was going on at work that he forgot the dogs were in the car. About 15 mins later he suddenly remembered and went to the car to get them both in. They were both dead.

Same applies when exiting a junction in a queue. I always wait until the car ahead of me has moved off before I look right.

I watched the documentary on the team effort to save the twelve kids in Thailand. British cavers along with others from around the world, combined to get them out alive. The whole thing was an amazing watch. Sadly one member of the Thai army died trying. Tham Luang cave rescue - Wikipedia

I've just watched The Selling of Sheffield Wednesday on BBCiplayer and the parallels with us are startling. We're funked because Asian/Thai businesses and the multi millionaire business owners wanted to own/ invest in an English club because it was the thing to do. Their knowledge of the EFL was next to nil. For Chansiri, see also Top after his dad passed.

Yeah, but unlikely given the lack of police presence. (As above).

That's certainly in highway code, as is the use of a car horn. Can only be used to make other road users aware of your presence on the road and not as a rebuke or greeting. Nor can it be used between the hours of 11pm and 7am. I very much doubt the (virtually non-existent) traffic cops would bother.

Same here when we tried to get a building compliance certificate from a company that celebrates Eid to be told that the office was closed for Eid.

Would you say the same about the natives of other Euro countries, eg. Italian-ness, Frenchness, Swedishness etc. We do seem to have our historical culture and sense of identity changed rather more than most other European countries.

I'm sending Tommy Robinson round to yours.

It's Chang o'clock.

I hope you get it sorted. Meanwhile, here in Hinckley, it's muggy with a bit of breeze but no rain, disappointingly. The temperature hasn't really dropped by much either. We have a south facing garden so there's very little respite from the sun. It's going to be hot and sticky in bed tonight.

I got sweet FA, again. -
Don't let kids become dead kids. Just because the parent survived being chucked off the bridge in Abbey Park, doesn't mean the kid will, but the parents do seem quite risk averse because of the second bit in bold.

Caves and underground systems are known for being at an almost constant ambient temperature.

I rarely eat from a buffet, particularly the salad cart at Harvester. It's not just people using their fingers, I've seen kids having a pick of their noses whilst choosing salad.

One the most innovative tools back in the day. I still have one. I used it frequently when we got our first home and did a lot of DIY. Now with smaller battery tools and such, it has become pretty much redundant. That said, someone needs to develop a battery screwdriver that will be able to access small tight spaces.
