  1. Absolutely no difference at all between a factual record of the findings of a parliamentary disciplinary investigation into the actions of a current member of Parliament and the uncorroborated, anonymous, hostile, anecdotes of something that might have happened, what, 20-30 years ago at uni..... Piggate - Wikipedia EN.M.WIKIPEDIA.ORG FFS Mark, pull the other one, it’s got a smidge more credibility ?
  2. Bumming rent boys and buying coke.... Enough to see you down the road in any ‘normal’ job, possibly prosecuted and on the nonces register to boot. Not if you’re a BME MP for the Labour Party though... MP Keith Vaz suspended from Commons after drug and sex inquiry https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-50252630
  3. Give us your planning app number and LA area so we can look at the application form and DN. The section on the application form which asks “...are there any trees/hedges on/adjacent to the proposed development site...” (or similar depending on which format/form) - was the TPO tree specified at application? Quite common for applicants to tick No No despite the very observable presence of trees and hedges.
  4. Mheh..... There you go with your wanton chubby shaming. Have you no heart nor conscience man? Now we’re gonna need a safe space for the more generously proportioned butter balls. Where will it all end..... ?
  5. This is my lettuce, there are many like it but this one is mine....
  6. What’s a dive show? You mean like a SCUBA Expo or some sort of Tom Daley tribute gig?
  7. Quite right. But.... Nine times out of ten You’ll get away with it in rural Devon, try opening a strangers car door in a metropolitan area and you’re closer to evens for going home in a box. I bet the guys on the tree gang that were set about by ax wielding bastards would think twice before getting involved again.
  8. Don't be reaching for the bigs girl's blouse.... You just crack on as you are ?
  9. They don't let you in Waitrose down 'ere unless yome wearing a cravat!
  10. I can't say the name of the Met Police Commissioner without saying "...oh not she doesn't..." I know, it's childish and unnecessary - but when we lose our sense of humour we might as well give up anyway.
  11. When will Joe Public learn to properly respect and abide by traffic management systems? SLG is there for public safety NOT public pleasure..... Man caught trying to have sex with traffic cone said 'my pants fell down' - Liverpool Echo WWW.LIVERPOOLECHO.CO.UK Shocked staff saw Trevor Smith 'thrusting his hips' towards the cone in the train station's lift

  13. https://www.whatvan.co.uk/what-van-awards/awards-2019/what-van-awards-2019-medium-van-of-the-year-–-ford-transit-custom Hands down!
  14. Just had a quick Youtube and found this vid: They have infilled the gaps with 6mm washed stone chip. The 3 ton water drop test at the end is genuinely impressive! Albeit a different product (Marshalls) rather than the Aggregate industries 'infilta' system, the principle must be similar. Makes me wonder if the developer I met today didn't realise it should have a 'filler' between the blocks. Don't know. I'm going to try the tech desk at Aggregate industries to see what they spec for in between the blocks.
  15. There’s meant to nuffin in the joints Egger! Seems a bit daft to me.
  16. Anyone come across this system before? Infilta | Aggregate Industries WWW.AGGREGATE.COM A tough, hard wearing permeable block capable of handling heavy-use trafficking but with the ability to provide water... Been to look at a site today where there is a problem with the gaps between the pavers becoming clogged with sediment, debris and moss / weed growth preventing the effective permeability of the surface. Whilst I was there on my own, I hadn't even realised that there were 2 different types of paving - one non permeable (normal block paving) and the other permeable (infilta.) The site foreman didn't appear to be aware either until the developer arrived and explained the difference and what the problem was. Can't help but think this system is pretty much doomed to fail since the necessary gaps between the infilta blocks are certain to become clogged over the passage of time. Just thought I'd throw it out there in case anyone else had encountered (or was considering) this type of system. Anyone got any ideas about how to prevent / remedy / resolve? I can't see the standard type of rotary wire brush or nylon brush vacuum system being particularly effective.
