Our far distance commuters work from home a lot - so it's not then every day.

Their website says "Launching late May 2019" - that's today as it's the last day in May - and if you scroll down they've got a games room launching June 6th. https://saucyrestaurants.com/

Advice needed to contest unfair bill from landlord
JohnL replied to EastDulwichLove's topic in The Lounge
I actually turned my combi boiler up to high heat for water (probably not a good idea but it's not really abuse of it) and the next check showed some of the insulation on the door had melted. Gas Engineer didn't seem that bothered but suggested I replace it by next year - ?120 -

They can up the rent - they can't just bill you IMHO. Unless you're a shared owner - like me. -

I think the Police would say not a good idea at all - it's not the 1970s. You'd end up in court possibly.

My Phone App says "Scan your Items, pay in the app and walk out" So no smart checkout - just all iPhone Apple Pay. -
Lord Varys is Sajid Javid (not really just the bald head as there's no personality similarity - or is there ?) I think Boris might be Stannis Baratheon.

I hope it does - I get the issue mentioned about staff, hope they use them for other work rather than profit. "into own bag" a recent thread comes to mind :) -
.. and speaking of Game of Thrones if 2019 Tory party leadership candidates were Game of Thrones characters Gove would surely be the B@st@rd of Winterfell.

I downloaded the App - but surely scanning as I go will initially make me take even longer than currently (and I've hit two hours) -

Is there any possible way to earn money without investment?
JohnL replied to Dyavion's topic in The Lounge
Grifting - but you need to choose which political persuasion to take. Then set-up your donate page and get out on the streets. Avoid Milk Shakes if you go right. -

I've seen polls that show it may be similar when you look at people who voted in the 2016 referendum. But we have loads of 15 to 17 year olds (as they were then) who are mainly remain and the longer it goes on the more will join the electorate. 3 million immigrants who didn't vote just been offered "free " British Citizenship (whatever that means - but I take it as no strings)if Gove wins now I see - will the others follow suite. Another Rory Stewart fan here though (comparatively).

The last two get picked by the Tory MPs, so who can offer them the most. They want to keep their seats, they don't want an election but if there was an election they need to win back Brexit Party voters. How long would a new PM last. Spreadsheet Phil hinted strongly that he (and others) would vote for a no confidence vote if a 'no deal' was tabled.

The deal is still on the table as far as the EU is concerned and if we go WTO/No Deal and then want to negotiate a free trade deal with them at any future point - then we must accept the deal. So any referendum may as well include what has already been negotiated, remain and no deal on a STV. I still believe there are big security issues with No Deal that we are not privy too as they are too sensitive.

I'm quite happy for Boris to come in and we all give him as much rope as he wants.

Only if he succeeds in a General Election and enters a coalition IMHO. A General Election is unavoidable now - probably the Autumn.

Sky News (just before I turned it off) said we will probably have the choice of Boris, Farage or Corbyn for PM.
