  1. I'm approaching the age where my next vehicle will be all electric but will only have one seat.
  2. In case they test positive?
  3. Maybe, but surely not the Nobel Peace Prize. Especially after he allegedly instigated and supported the insurgence on the White House and subsequently pardoned those jailed for the insurrection. I hope the Nobel committee understand the ridicule that could come their way if they give him the award.

    This is old. A version I heard when I was young came from Spike Milligan: There was a young man from Dundee Who was stung on arm by a wasp When asked if it hurt He said no, not a lot It can do it again if it likes
  5. Maybe, but behaving legally and legitimately. As opposed to now where where none dare publicly speak the word for fear of condemnation, but we all know what is going on.
  6. This is what I see too. One time it felt very muti-cultural and interesting. Now it feels quite intimidating. Brings to mind a 999 call I went to once, just off Narborough Road, and the 2 room flat we were called to had 9 foreign men living in it.
  7. How old actually are you? It's easy to fracture a bone when you've got osteoporosis.
  8. Surely then, the question has to be "why". What has caused the "rot" to set in? Someone more knowledgeable than me might offer an answer.
  9. Mostly we seem to get along with each other despite the enclaves that seem to be growing. In my own personal experience when I was working, I rarely came across anyone that was nothing other than reasonable in whatever "community" I was in.
  10. They'll tarmac your drive and replace soffits and guttering for cash. I take that back. The caravans could be legit tourists.
  11. That's twice you've said that. The only thing I can find fault with is your lack of an apostrophe in "doesnt" But I'm not a mod.
  12. Erm...? Are you saying that if you went to Handsworth or Highfields and the said publicly that you didn't see one white face, people wouldn't call you out? If you had said you saw many people that were living in a thriving community without mentioning skin colour that would be seen as a positive observation and rightly so. Jenerick, who I assume you support, made his observation on the basis of a persons skin colour not their contribution in whatever way to their community. On that basis, it definitely smacks of racism. What did he expect to see in the area he visited?
  13. Will there be an XL Jinping as he seems to be getting there?
  14. I don't sit well with what Jenerick said, but Badenoch's response was shallow and weak. Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch said she did not know the context of the recording but that Jenrick may have been "making an observation" about his visit to the area. "I heard that one of the MPs of that area was accusing him of racism. I completely disagree with that, I want to make that very clear," she told BBC Breakfast. I wonder what her response would have been if a Labour MP had said the same?
  15. At least I didn't get shanked or ass raped.
  16. Apparently the basis for Hitchcock's Psycho
  17. I got 3 days.
  18. Never gonna happen. I've queried it when I got a ban and no response was forthcoming. I thought, this is what living in China/Russia must be like.
  19. Yeah but I bet they had helmets.
  20. Good. Should happen more often and be publicised more.
  21. On a par in terms of portraying the main characters and there's background similarities in why they came to do what they did. We've only watched 3 episodes so far and the story is still developing. I think it's going to be a worthy watch.
  22. Monster. The Ed Gein story on Netfliox. 3 episodes in so far. Very sinister.
