  1. I think he was making a joke actually mate.

    Jokes???

    Me too, I didn't get it the first time, or second time... makes the old brain work. no such thing as a free lunch!
  3. Well, you can keep your sweating, you mofo! We're not jealous at all. 😡 I was just glad of a nice bit of apricity when walking to school this morning.
  4. It's getting to that time of year. The Mrs mentioned turning the CH on this morning. Reckon I can turn a deaf ear to that idea for a couple more mentions but only for a couple more weeks at this rate. The woodburner won't be far behind either. I too have concerns over the size of our log supply this season, though it's all Ash and Oak St least so will last longer.

    How much?!!

    Yep, massive difference between the state of people's teeth in my generation and my parents. They have a mouth full of amalgum, which has a never ending need for maintenance. By contrast I only have one cap, on a half tooth that was broken when I was about six, (playing tag at school and had a close encounter with a door handle!). Given that, it doesn't seem worth going on to one of the prepayment schemes. Better just to take the hit every couple of years and then moan about it on an Arb forum!
  6. The, (then), sixteen year old postulated a similar theory. Some thing along the lines of starting all the alt right BS and other moon battery so that when the accusations eventually came out, as he knew they would, all his Influenced fans would rush out to defend him against "The Establishment'. I thought it sounded rather too far fetched, but if indeed it was a plan, then it's certainly working.

    How much?!!

    Yep, the Dental Service is broken, like lots else besides. Mine is private, but only because I used to pay almost as much for an NHS one, with a crap reputation. There wasn't much choice besides. It's the old cliché but it's a real postcode lottery, with very few winning tickets.

    How much?!!

    Glad to see you used squeaky clean pliers.
  9. £90! To visit the dentist today. All it was was a check-up then a clean and polish. I was in there 10 minutes tops. Think I'll drop back to going every other year if not less. What's everyone else paying? And how frequently do you go?
  10. Not the remnants of that sappy stuff that Cherries and other Prunus trees exude lots of sometimes is it?
  11. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ I didn't watch the documentary. You should read before banging that poor keyboard. Why are you defending this guy so aggressively anyway? I know you're partial to alt-right misogynist Influencers but even so, Russell Brand, really?
  12. Russell Brand jokes about raping and killing woman and having sex with audience members, homeless people and children in resurfaced interview | Daily Mail Online WWW.DAILYMAIL.CO.UK The interview was removed from YouTube and Soundcloud as scandal engulfed the star, who vehemently denies claims he... I sense an implosion is imminent.
  13. Mate, don't you ever get weary of all this? It's like you live on a cliff edge, perpetually poised to fall off into a state of indignation and rage at the merest hint of a different opinion to yours. Either that or some mean Beagles or Labradors have been fronting-up to you again! The "documentary" that riled you up this time was actually an interview that I heard on the radio, not TV. The woman sounded very sincere, whereas he just sounds like a bit of a nutcase. What are these mystery timings anyway? Was Brand about to deliver some massive exposé on the Global Cabal or something, another one?
  14. The creep is toast now, as he really deserves to be. Hopefully. I've just heard quite a long interview with the 16 year old lass that he abused. It was pretty damning stuff. Blatant abuse of power and influence at the very least, but who knows what else is going to come out.
  15. There's oodles of them around still, 500000 according to that archive, so everyone should more or less have their own local one! Much higher concentration in urban areas though. That one I saw yesterday was in the middle of nowhere, but beside a canal, on a bridge. Presumably there are more beside infrastructure like that and major roads.
  16. Bingo! Though the number isn't the height above sea level, as I assumed it was. It's just a reference number, you can find the height from the Benchmark archive. OS-Net | Ordnance Survey WWW.ORDNANCESURVEY.CO.UK Ordnance Survey produces digital and paper maps and OS MasterMap for business, leisure, government and... OS Benchmark Archive INTERACTIVEMAPS.UK
  17. Since we're on a bit of a cartography trip, here's something related. Who knows what this is? I didn't until someone told me about it fairly recently, quite interesting. I saw this one today.
  18. Great, looking forward to your review in about a months time then!
