Yes, bindweed. I'm sure there is a massive growth of the dreaded Japanese Knotweed at the back of Forest Hill Maplin anyone else seen it?

Ever since they built all those flats on the TA barracks there has been problems off and on. The water has to be pumped at a higher pressure up the hills to supply each flat with a mains supply and the pipes can't cope.

I, for one, do not believe that far-leftie views are dead -just underground

Apart from a sudden involuntary increase in heart rate-yes thanks binary-star

I meant the road surface at the LL end of Goodrich is a death trap in the dark-

They all have the same basic aims and since some Labour seats were lost when it was discovered that the candidates were involved in the Militant tendency they are all astute enough not to get themselves involved with the far left overtly, but that doesn't mean that they do not hold those views.

I missed hitting a cyclist by a hair's breadth when I came to a T junction with a one way street to the right. I was turning left and the cyclist came out of the one-way street the wrong way. This is the second time this has happened to me at that place- it's ridiculous.

Google doesn't recognise it- ergo it can't exist!

Before I was old enough to vote I was vaguely involved with some International Socialists and Trotskyist types. They put me right off the left-leaning politics- everything they went on about entailed how to prise money away from other people- and into their own pockets- the hypocrisy and shite was palpable

I wish they would fix the Lordship Lane End of Goodrich road- it's a death trap in the dark

Put everything inside out?

When does it start because I went to the 1971 Glasto?

Being fined for exceeding air pollution levels is nothing new http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/earthnews/7801436/Britain-faces-fine-for-air-quality-after-final-warning-from-EU.html

I don't care so long as the Daily Mirror doesn't follow suit- I cannot abide Kevin Maguire he is also 'mercifully free of the ravages of intelligence'(quote from Time Bandits) since he has been totally brainwashed by the loony left.

Some young religious people are extremely prejudiced when it comes to sexuality- they are vehement in their condemnation and ironically most of them I have encountered spouting hatred of this kind have been black!

This did the rounds on FB about a year ago

I agree.

He gets it in the neck firstly because he is a Tory Education Secretary- and by definition will incur the wrath of teachers- just because. I think reducing the opportunities for students to sit exams is primarily a money saving exercise. Prior to this current regime, A level students could sit some of their modules up to 4 times each. And if they take 4 subjects at AS and 3 at A2 that was potentially 38 exams altogether. Some students may have an A on a module but would resit to get a better A and maximise their UCAS points on easy modules since they cannot resit their final June modules. People have to be paid to produce them, invigilate them, mark them, sit with students over lunch time when they have clashes so that they do not access phones and computers. Most schools would not pay for all resits and parents would pay but even so the process must be subsidised since they do not cost very much. Also he is reforming BTEC exams- the dropout rate of students who get into uni with a BTEC (all coursework- does not appear to be externally moderated!)is high so subjecting BTEC students to sitting exams may reduce the dropout rate.

Alan Medic mentioned this possibility earlier on and it reminded me of the acquaintance- yes she did give her kids benzos- a paediatric formula way back in the 1980s so it was probably prescribed. My gran used to give her kids a sugar dummy dipped in brandy and they ended up with rotten teeth.
