Insulting in so many ways to assume the author is male. School playground level.

Does anyone know if the Embankment is still closed to traffic travelling west through Chelsea/Earls Court towards the M4? Can't readily find out on TFL etc. Thanks in advance :)

I'm a girl. You actually - like - MISGENDERED me. Possible "hate crime"? PS No time to engage in arguments with strangers here. But enjoy the bickering while I'm gone.

The working-classes get it in the neck first and millions of them are righteously p*ssed off after having their wishes flouted by several decades of elected politicians.

I attended a private girls' school and now study at the Royal College of Music! But (OBV!) I wear my working-class credentials on my sleeve... MATE.

I've heard of this historically, but have never known of any current examples. Worrying. Can I ask what road you are on (or please give a nearby road)?

Touch?! Yet again the 'Fox' fluffing it.

did you try the hot water on the area of pipe nearest the ground (where it would be the coldest)? my boiler was out of action with this problem today, but hot (not boiling - could crack the pipe) water all over the pipe - but mainly concentrated at the bottom - cleared it quickly. top advice from Billy - who importantly says "boiled" rather than boiling water! ------------------------------------------------------- > Hi Billy, > Thanks for your advice.

Good to hear this.
