I dunno, pretty good first comment from..


"Yes, it can be confusing. I don't know if anyone else is aware that Camelot do not use the binary numeric system!

Got a cheque from Camelot the other week for ?1000000 - thought it was only ?64 and so binned it!

Why can't they be upfront about the system they use? Who knows how the hexadecimalists cope!"

Mind you how do you go about explaining minus to someone who isn't going to grasp theoretical concepts.

After all -1 centigrade is arbitrary, it could be 127 thrupples, like an amp that goes up to 11.


I mean you've got 2 apples, now I take 3 away...uurgh?...tricky stuff ;-P

As another of the commenters says, no wonder they're all in debt!! :D

    • "In Southwark, you can recycle plastic plant pots at home in your main recycling bin, provided they are not black, as black plastic is often not detected by recycling machinery. Clean, rigid plastic pots (tubs/trays) are accepted, but soft plastic pots should be taken to a local supermarket drop-off point" B&Q take as well https://www.diy.com/responsible-business/community/community-re-use (I've just found much of this out) Or you can make little men
    • Can they be recycled? I didn't know that. I've tried to give them away in the past. One community garden took a load one year, but I haven't had much luck otherwise. People are probably trying to get rid of their own 🤣 I don't know why nurseries don't use biodegradable pots, but I suppose it's because they would biodegrade before the plant reached the plant centre/retailer and then the gardener at the end of the chain.
    • I'm surprised no one has commented yet on the Rolls Royce phantom that was parked on the same side of the road, just a few yards away (not kidding). Lordship is the true millionaires' mile.
