I'll take that as a no, then.

Or, to put it more succinctly...

Video of smashed Russian column deep inside Kursk... A big old mess that the Ruskies are going to find more and more difficult to tidy up the longer it goes on. Go on lads, wreak havoc!

Ahh yeah, I see what you mean. I guess you could bodge job a lift with a bottle jack or two, depending on the terrain.

You generally give top quality advice, but the feelings of the person expected to carry out the work are always to be taken into account as well. Let's rephrase the question: "A customer has asked me to pumice her bunions and stir the resulting scrapings into my cup-a-soup. I don't think the job is up my street, and advised her as such." Walk away, let her find someone else, don't undertake any work that you wouldn't be happy doing. Personally, I'll do any dirty little thing you want to a sycamore, but some other poor fella can butcher her oak trees for her.

A popular trend on Twitter at the moment is telling Russian bots how to behave. Funny stuff!

I had a track come off of those mini tippers once a few years ago, on hire, had to get the fella out to sort it. Is it the sort of thing that even a simpleton like me could manage, should it happen again in the future?

Could you do another week now?

Scrubbed up bloody well whatever it is.

Two weeks at GCSE, two weeks at A-level, when I was at school. I did two weeks in the kitchens of a local hotel in the first block, and they gave me a job off the back of it. Since I already had a job when the second block came around, two friends and I went and volunteered on the Dorset steam railway for two weeks and had a little holiday instead.

One of my son's (age 5) favourite jokes at the moment, I'm not sure if he understands it though... he might just like it because of the funny voice I put on. A man goes into a bakery in Glasgow and points to one of the tasty looking treats in the display case. "Is that a cream cake or a meringue?" he asks. "No, you're right," Agnes replies, "It's a cream cake!"

Understood skipper 👍

...are you just quietly skipping over Stevie P's very specific question there?

Speaking of Tate, something I find particularly funny at the moment is the angriest and shoutiest of the right wingnuts currently questioning Tate's gender at birth... saying that his sloping shoulders suggest that he was in fact born a woman... And Tate himself is currently angry and shouty about the raciest of racists saying that he is too black to be British... Tricky to feel sorry for him, to be honest.

Gosh, I hope not! As I'm up the hill and my wife is in the drink...

Have you got any specifics on that? I honestly don't follow anything they do, but I always thought that the idea behind the service they offer was solid, and entirely necessary for certain situations... but I can absolutely see how it could be abused by walty types. It's the same as any volunteer service I'd expect, you'd get people showing up who genuinely want to help out in a shitty situation, and you'd get others who are only interested in helping themselves... and one of those types of person generally shout louder than the other.

I'll admit, I'm not entirely up to speed with the machinations of the various social media platforms... I'm just not involved with them... but when did LinkedIn change from being a networking site for career-driven people from a variety of sectors into... whatever it is now?

A fella on my arb school intake volunteered with them for a bit, he never told me what colour Power Ranger he was though... 🤔

That's not ideal. Return journey in the future, or is it now "habitat creation"?

Dublin area rapid transit?

Absolutely, anything to take the strain off the front line inside Ukraine is a great idea. Fingers crossed they can dig in a bit and really drain the resources intended for elsewhere, if it's worth the investment in manpower.

Are you (and all the flipping headcases you listen to) f○cking high?! It's a different planet you are on! "Hiding from the media" after a rally in a different state every day, sometimes two, while your God Emperor hasn't been seen in a week? Wandering up to an EMPTY plane and asking if he can have a look around, before being told to piss off? In what world is this "gutsy"? Dave: you are not well. You need help. "J.D. Vance briskly marched up to Air Force 2, Kamala Harris’ plane, planning to give political reporters a show as he confronted the vice president uninvited on Wednesday. His power play dreams, like most of his chaotic veep run, were immediately thwarted once he realized Harris was not present. “I just wanted to check out my future plane,” Vance told campaign reporters gathered on the tarmac in Wisconsin. He didn’t get the chance to face Harris but said that he “wanted to go say hello to the vice president and ask her why does she refuse to answer questions.” It’s unclear what questions Vance was referring to, as Harris has repeatedly pressed for Donald Trump to attend a September 10 debate that he already agreed to appear at when he was running against President Joe Biden. Vance told a Philadelphia rally on Tuesday that he would “absolutely” want to debate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, if given the chance. Roughly 40 minutes after the Ohio senator stormed over to confront his invisible opponent, the Harris campaign released a video set to a popular TikTok audio seemingly intended to make fun of him."

Jesus, while we've been distracted by Trump's failing mental health and ham shouting at brown people, Ukraine has made a land grab into Russia... 350km² taken into Kursk, with no signs of anything slowing down yet... It's probably not going to hold out long-term, but it has great potential for negotiations and propaganda. Lot of Russian soldiers surrendering... this is great news.

Ah look, we were all 14 once upon a time.

Can't stick a laughing emoji on that whole post obviously, but that's some funny stuff right there. Condolences for the loss of your surrogate dog, it's always a kick in the teeth. The brother of my pair, a well-meaning ginger idiot, has been licking himself shorn on his belly and between his hind legs, probably through stress. He looks like someone has given him a going over with my beard trimmer. And he came home a few days ago with a horrible gash on his face, leaking all sorts. It looked all right once Doctor Oscar had cleaned him up, but I'm worried he's being bullied by one of the bigger boys living nearby because, frankly, he's absolutely useless.
