Noooo, Paul Ritter, Dad (Martin) in Friday Night Dinner, way too young...https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2021/apr/06/friday-night-dinner-star-paul-ritter-dies-of-brain-tumour-at-54

Week 27 points... Week 27 table...

I personally like the 'floating' effect of an exposed wooden handrail, always worth investigating what quality of handrail you've got, a lot of period properties used good quality wood e.g. oak, mahogany, for the handrail and cheaper wood for the spindles. Again personally, I'd avoid a gloss finish, looks too institutional, matt finishes are far more forgiving of blemishes, eggshell is a good compromise. I'd also be very wary if you intend to paint the treads too unless you intend to have a runner, as the last thing you want is a slippy finish...

*polls are needed

That's a good point alex, totally forgot that Scottish Parliament elections are run on a form of PR. According to this article...https://www.holyrood.com/comment/view,what-impact-could-alex-salmonds-alba-party-have-on-the-election...polls are needed (some due this weekend) to see what/if any effect voting for Alba will have. The article does suggest votes for Alba could help unionist parties in certain regions, but it also suggests that Alba is targeting pro-Indy, socially conservative, Brexit voters, so I presume they mean voters that want to vote Indy but would never vote for the SNP because they consider them to be left wing. All ifs, buts and maybes at this stage...

A better time to ask that question will be after the May elections...

This smacks more of personal than political, even Farage realised that by standing at the last GE, votes for his party would undermine the chances of the Tories winning and thereby Brexit completing. The bigger the SNP's win the more chance there'll be of Johnson being forced politically to agree to a second referendum...

Well done maxximillian, and thanks to Meds for organising...

John Lewis have a good range to suit most budgets...

Isn't the problem here that when something is shared from a disreputable and/or shadily funded site, it quickly leads onto other stuff that might not be 'real'. It's why so many people end up getting lost down rabbit holes. By limking/sharing an item to these sites your inadvertently promoting/advocating all the shady/conspiracy nonsense they try to peddle...

Bulb are very good but they've been trying the hard sell recently on putting in smart meters, has anyone else had a similar experience about their smart meters not being compatible with other companies?...

I thought it was only possible to peek after you've locked your own predictions and therefore can't tactically change your prediction. Although I guess someone's mate could take a peek and relay the info back to them, doubt that would happen on the EDF unless Uncleglen joined in...#ABU :)

Just had a look at Habitat's website, there's definitely been a drop in quality of design, can see there are a few original Habitat products still there e.g. the Radius furniture range, but overall it looks mostly Argos stuff and prices. Disappointing to see as Habitat was a nice halfway-house between Ikea and Heals/Conran. > Snobby I know I don't mind being called a snob if it means not wanting a chest of drawers that look like they've been knocked out by Grandad in an air raid shelter during the Blitz...:)
