  1. You don't give all the facts, but from skimming through some of the key cases at https://www.londontribunals.gov.uk/eat/key-cases?field_subjects_value=Loading%2FUnloading+exemptions I wouldn't rule out your having an arguable case, the 5 minutes interval notwithstanding. One important factor would be that it was solely unloading/delivering, rather than shopping. I'd start at the Bosworth et al.(2016) and Matin (2014) judgments, for summaries of some of the current established case law. I see that Louise Landih v. TfL, which as summarised in Bosworth involved an attempt to deliver a lawnmower to, and collect a chair from, an Oxfam shop, might have succeeded, if she hadn't messed it up by doing some shopping for small items at the same time. PS Though your twenty minutes parked, which I've just noticed, does look potentially excessive, and I think would need justifying if alleged; as does your five minute absence. The fact that a maximum of an hour is permitted for un/loading is irrelevant.
  2. Sounds as if it's maybe set to print more than one page per sheet. Check that control.

  4. I assume it was this one (copied from my browser cache; I'm not an Admin).
  5. Was that an informal warning or an official caution? I'm particularly interested in the extent to which the police treat these cases seriously if there's clear evidence of removal of papers containing personal information that might be used for id theft. Was there any that you know of in this case?

  7. Just spotted this one basking in the back garden. Looking up tells me it's a red admiral, which are said to be common, but it was unusual enough here to grab my attention. There are some whites fluttering around too. When I was young they all got called cabbage whites, though I see that there's a whole family Pieridae that includes several white types. They don't oblige by sitting still for long, and my lens is only 4x, so little prospect of getting a distinct view.

  10. This seems to be following a US example. https://www.ready.gov/september
  11. Have any lice appeared yet?
  12. And Yahoo mail server has just delivered to me.
  13. It is possible to block websites at the browser level, maybe via an add-on. Here, for example, are some recommendations on how to do it in Firefox. https://m.wikihow.com/Block-Websites-on-Firefox I've no personal experience, though I do ad-blocking, which is probably effected similarly. ETA Just had a longer look at that reference. I see that methods 4 and 5 are general phone apps, for iPhones and Androids respectively.
  14. @Humdinger, they are alleged perpetrators. In acting as if you have personal knowledge of them and their activities, you can make yourself potentially liable to prosecution under the Contempt of Court Act: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1981/49/crossheading/strict-liability. Follow the newspaper's example. They're professionals who know what they're doing, and act with integrity.

  16. > It?s hilarious reading back over this thread. What are you on?
  17. Try experimenting with the position of the router, even at the same distance; or the orientation of its aerial. It's seemed to me that even radio waves find some paths easier than others. Channel selection strategy might be worth thinking about; see eg: https://superuser.com/questions/1308736/should-wifi-routers-be-set-to-a-channel-or-choose-automatically/1308847.

  19. How random?
  20. Incorrect advice removed. Should have tried out the password change procedure _before_ writing it.
  21. I don't know about dogs, but I have a bag of frozen banana slices which I dip into from time to time. Bananas are three quarters water. Other fruits may be available.
  22. I was about to conclude that the latest Private Eye, due last Wednesday, was definitely the fourth to go missing this year, and then it arrived today.
  23. I noticed and reported similarly to Mark, at the time when there seemed to be the general message posting problem. After it was, to some extent, cleared up, I have noticed the same SMTP error messages sometimes appearing, for just a few seconds, to be followed by an apparent confirmation that the "report this message" had actually been submitted. I tried a test PM to myself immediately after one of these. That got through ok, so I've assumed that the "report this message" ones got through too, and that the error messages were themselves false and a manifestation of the ongoing intermittent fault. But it would be useful to know if siousxiesue's one did get through or not.
  24. I jog through that bit sometimes; definitely woodland in my book. For thirty seconds I can even imagine myself on Wimbledon Common. And then I'm in Sainsbury's carpark.
  25. Coincidentally, the British Retail Consortium launched a broadside today against current retail business taxation. https://brc.org.uk/news/2019/over-fifty-retailers-demand-chancellor-fix-business-taxation
