  1. I expect Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) is earning a lot more with the X box ads. BCS is very good- I love the home (literally) office. 3rd episode today.
  2. grill
  3. How Can You Keep on Moving- Ry Cooder
  4. I am getting heartily sick of people pulling out in front of me on roundabouts and waving their hand as if to thank me- whilst I'm slamming my brakes on....fyi you are supposed to give way to traffic coming from your right on the roundabout.
  5. A friend was involved in a serious life changing traffic collision and the only 'witness' around was a bus- but apparently the cameras on that were not working or not on.....just as well there were no cyclists around. I am naturally a suspicious person and malumbu's story just reinforces my suspicions....
  6. Rainbow_snail- I read their manifesto last week......ha, ha, ha! (Would have typed this in commie red if I'd known how to change the colour quickly)
  7. BTW I read somewhere a few weeks ago that the effect on your brain of a Kindle is the same as using a computer in that if you use it before sleep time it will cause wakefulness and problems getting to sleep. I was contemplating getting a Kindle but changed my mind as I read mainly to get off to sleep. So on medical grounds they are not a good idea if this is true! I agree with RPC -should never have been made public.
  8. I guessed that
  9. I was only thinking last evening that people on the Forum are very informative as to local goings-on and people should continue to report unusual behaviour like bin-raiding- after all forewarned is forearmed.. Given that much of the ED population is at work during the day and well-off people are moving in and that attracts miscreants, everyone needs to be security conscious and aware.
  10. Yes I agree report it because some years ago a man exposed himself to my young daughter and her friend and the police said that we had done the right thing because if they get away with a crime they invariably escalate (unfortunately there are some people who are still living in the Middle Ages in their tiny minds!)
  11. Yes, the council seems to be a law unto itself- the 20mph speed limit increases fuel consumption thereby raising carbon dioxide emissions. Petrol vehicles have increased NOx emissions as well- the only reduction is the PM10 particulates which are reduced at 20mph compared with 30 mph. Getting rid of trees which mop up carbon dioxide will also increase CO2. Whenever I am driving at 20mph on the wider roads people overtake me, even at night, and that puts pedestrians and cyclists at greater risk.....
  12. Ashes of the Wake- Lamb of God
  13. Faith schools will preferentially give places to catholics, then other faiths then if there are any places left the rest of us unbelievers, probably according to distance. Bloody joke that we still have state funded faith schools that openly criticise homosexuality and discriminate (adoption e.g.) in this day and age.....
  14. Up On Cripple Creek-The Band
  15. Transport upgrades take so long that they are obsolete as soon as they are finished. Same with housing projects, school expansions etc etc....
  16. (Apologies if this is already here) People who say 'where did you get that FROM' fcol
  17. World Painted Blood- Slayer
  18. Cause
  19. They All Went to Mexico- Santana
  20. You have to pass CBT and renew it every 2 years I think and keep L plates on. You are not allowed on motorways but you can do the full test and get a full licence
  21. Go Down Moses- Fisk Jubilee Singers
  22. On the Border- Al Stewart
  23. Some people at work have been using a facility which, when you e-mail them a notice comes up telling you when they are free. I purposely do not want to use it because I don't want people to know when I'm free so that they can pester me and then I won't be free. Being 'free' means this is the only time I've got to actually get on and do some actual work......
  24. I agree with you BB. My kids have never seen a Disney film or been subjected to that sentimental drivel. A whole week as well. It may be that the staff are not very well educated and therefore have to resort to this type of thing. The season of winter, these lovely frosty mornings for example, is an education and a resource in itself- why dip into Disney?
