I think of it as a management tool. Happy to report it works all the way up to CEO level.

Talking of U2, Bono is one of the biggest hypocrites around. He chides governments for not spending more on relief of poverty, while he and his chums avoid tax on a big scale.


Bono, where do you think that governments get their money from so that they can spend more on poverty relief? From taxation, that's where.

Hey. I started that thread and if I'm brain dead, well that's my right. Over to you to start an intellectually stimulating thread.........

The Nights are drawing in.

The Weather has turned cold..


The EDT has turned on Their Fires and cranked up the heating.


LOVELY..


Then you get a couple of Selfish Gits that pull over a table and two stalls

and sit with their Ar**s in the flames so no one can see the fire or feel the benefit.

Posts in the wrong thread, particularly what are clearly ads. I sometimes report them to Admin but not sure this is being enforced much. This week seems to be mainly events. Suppose it makes a change from the endless 'research opportunities' and me-too TV/media idiots looking for people to mock.

People who don't say "excuse me" or make any polite request when they need you to move, usually on the bus or train. They just shift around, give you a hard stare or trample you. What is wrong with asking? You're not going to burst into flames if you speak to another person in public you know!


Myself, for responding to their fidgeting in lieu of a polite verbal request to get out of their way. I wish I could just sit and stare ahead of me and remain resolutely in their way until they are forced to actually ask. But I am far too polite (and English) for that. I shall have to get some blinkers for wearing on public transport. And then I get annoyed that they don't say thank you when I do move... grrr!

    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end! 
    • Does anyone know what time tonight's events, the second night of the new phenomenon of Halloween Fireworks, end? These do sound too major to be anything but large- scale organised events and they are loud, very loud. So anyone, for their own reasons, that dislikes or objects to this level of noise for the next x amount of hours, really has no choice in the matter! Could those addicted to loud bangs possibly have a kind of silent disco setup with the bangs sent through headphones, so the rest of us could be spared?
    • Another recommendation for Maurice. He did a great job replacing a leaking radiator. He is polite, thoughtful and efficient. Thank you very much.
