Well he hired a ferry company that had no ferries, so makes sense he can run an intelligence committee with no intelligence. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
String fellow Posted 12 March 2020 Share Posted 12 March 2020 (edited) It looks like it'll become an offence to park on the pavement. Marvellous news! Every narrow road in Leicestershire could now become completely blocked, as cars half-parked on the footpath to assist with the free flow of traffic become a thing of the past. Villages like Houghton-on-the-Hill will just get completely snarled up during the school run, when the double-deck buses become completely unable to pass through. Perhaps every car owner should be locked up, since it'll soon be impossible to drive or park anywhere without breaking some stupid law or other!

Gives more room for cyclists to illegally ride on them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny that maternity services would view his wife as an "older mother" at 44, but she's young enough to be Bernie's granddaughter! Blimey! I've just noticed that his eldest daughter is 65 - and he's becoming a Dad again when he's already a great-grandfather....that must all be pretty rare....

Strikes me as being very selfish, I guess he could live to be 100+ but his son looks like he'll may well have to except Money in lieu of a Dad for most of his growing up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember when they were the equivalent of what Lewis's is now, nice electrical dept, collectible dragon sculptures etc., and then they went all shite and were nothing more than glorified shoe/clothes shops with a restaurant and perfume section.

Just because it's not seen as global commons, doesn't mean it cannot be explored in an international union. As stated in the declaration. The US can have their opinion, and other nations a different one. Nothing to get ones knickers in a twist. By the time space exploration on this level is practical and feasible enough, Trump will be long gone. And Europe, Russia or China will have to make great strides to get anywhere near the technological level the US are at right now. If you want to blame the US president responsible, look back at the treaty of 1979. That was Jimmy Carter territory. You get triggered way too easily by Orange Man.
