Has anyone else tried this old time remedy for mild respiratory ailments? Blackberry Vinegar. My wife swears by it and it was handed down by her dad. I poo-pooed it as it didn't seem to work for me but, it seems I could be wrong: Key benefits of blackberry vinegar include: Relief from cold and flu symptoms Traditionally used as a home remedy, a tablespoon of blackberry vinegar in hot water can help soothe coughs, colds, and sore throats. The high vitamin C content in blackberries contributes to this immune support. Rich in antioxidants Blackberries are packed with antioxidants like polyphenols and anthocyanins, which help protect the body against free radicals and may lower the risk of chronic conditions like heart disease and certain cancers. Anti-inflammatory effects The compounds in blackberries have anti-inflammatory properties that can help with intestinal inflammation and soothe conditions like pharyngitis and laryngitis.

I assume the pegs are to stop the choke closing too quickly. My first car had a manual choke and it did just that and would close causing the engine to misfire. I just kept pulling it out until it stopped doing it. I never really understood what a choke did but I imagined it restricted air flow to increase the richness of the fuel to air mixture. Along a similar theme, quarterlight side windows and only one wing mirror.

I wasn't referring to ethnicity by colour. More the white Irish that claim ethnic minority status. As mentioned by @adam1 above.

Well I'm not risking a ban by going into detail.

Any reputable contractor however small should be building the basis of their clientele by being honest and reputable. So they won't answer emails or texts or phone calls? Sadly there's so many that are untraceable once the crap work has been done. I think we know, generally, their minority ethnic group. Word of mouth, if you have the access, is the best way forward.

Misleading maybe, but let's face it we all know that Trump lies about everything that is negative and lies about "positives and the good things he's doing to create the image of supreme power. You might conclude that this shows BBC bias and you may be correct. But how biased is what "Truth Social" puts out as well as MAGA supporting news outlets and media in America? He hates being challenged in/by whatever forum tries it on. He ALWAYS has to be right. Plus the Panorama program wasn't broadcast in the USA and that's quite a crux for DT and his attempt to sue.

If you're expecting the Trump administration to come clean then that's quite naïve. You'd be cold in the ground before (if ever) that happens,. Same with the Epstein files.

England Internationals Serbia and Albania

That game under Southgate would have been a dull, uninspiring 0-0 with England passing sideways and flat going forward. I'm quite looking forward to the WC -
I do like Roy Keane in post match analysis. Says it as it is.

For a number of reasons, I struggle with Christmas so, sadly, I dislike everything associated with the festive season but I don't begrudge anyone having their enjoyment. Enjoy

Give the players the freedom to express their skills and that's what you get. Southgate forced them to play negatively within his dogmatic thinking -

I wonder if Southgate is thinking, why couldn't I be TT. The gulf in playing style is remarkable. Positive, pacey, attacking, front footed -
Once again, child protection within the social services has failed another known (to the relevant services) vulnerable child. How many more?

Was it cardboard box?

I'm already sick and tired of Christmas adverts.

It was pointless tinkering in the first place. I didn't vote at any point as I didn't know anything about the candidates and I still don't. As far as I can ascertain they made no discernible positive changes, certainly not to the police service in our area that seemed effective.

Why? To suck up to a virtual dictator? Just because say's it's so, it doesn't mean it is. The Trump lawyers on this have got a lot to prove and it's unlikely they can conclusively do so. Are you Vance in disguise?

I know. Mix up with names. Is Wes Balls a thing?

Rumours emerging on the news/Newsnight last night that there's a rebellion brewing led it seems, by Ed Streeting. Politics is so Machiavellian at all levels and in all parties. Worse in many countries where assassination is a real possibility.
