Do you mean that red and black Troop shellsuit he wears or the big Fila sweatshirt?

When I was very little I used to believe that actors who died in films would audition for the part because they didn't want to live anymore...


I also used to think the that the signs saying "HAZCHEM" was a warning in German, because it sounded more scary!

Cruel I know but when my kids were young, I told them that the ice cream man/women only played music to let the little children know they had run rout of ice cream, so not to pester then!! As I said, very cruel but with four kids, I had it relatively easy on this front as they didn't clock for many many years!! They weren't impressed when the penny dropped though!

You was not far from wrong, Actually there is no colour at all it's your Eye and brain that creates the illusion of colour

Well, there are different wavelengths of light which are 'colour', but yes, colour is how your eye/brain perceives them.

Basically White Light is invisible..


When light hits an object ? say, a banana ? the object absorbs some of the light and reflects the rest of it.


Which wavelengths are reflected or absorbed depends on the properties of the object.


For a ripe banana, wavelengths of about 570 to 580 nanometers bounce back.


These are the wavelengths of yellow light.

When I was young I asked my Dad how new MPs are picked. He told me they all go round the back of the House of Commons, then a man shouts go and the first person to put their hand up wins. I only discovered this wasn't true when I was 18.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
