My thoughts on the new series so far:
• Pleased they have ditched the overly long intro to each episode with recap of journey so far
• Also dropped the whole 'can you go from X to X overland for the cost of the airfare' from the intro*
• The total budget seemed quite low considering the journey...
We went for an Otty Hybrid Mattress a few years ago, along with a couple of their pillows.
Very comfortable and happy with it.
Has a temperature regulating layer so haven't found it being too hot.
I had £3000 invested in Premium Bonds for a few years (around 2010-2014 I think) but quite regularly won £50 and won £1000 once. Then had to cash them in towards a house deposit.
So guess I did quite well there. I've recently put in £5000 based on reading this thread each month, eligible from 1...
I drove along Dyke Road and Seven Dials last week, and bakeries seem to be the new Turkish Barbers around there.
Whilst in traffic I noticed Flour Pot Bakery, Hellenic Bakery, Gail's Bakery all within yards of each other at the end of Dyke Road.
I just read your post to my wife who has worked in HR for over 20 years... she said it sounds like your wife and her colleagues have grounds for a collective grievance.

Having read this thread, I've just placed an order for a max strength Vitamin D spray.
I love being out in the sun but combination of busy desk based job, family commitments/general day to day drudgery and our unpredictable weather means I probably don't get enough of it.
And I used to have a...
I've seen a few parents wearing them on the school run recently... in Felbridge, Surrey. A county without a coast.
It's a no from me, in the same category as Crocs, wearing Sliders with Nike sports socks, and going sockless with ankle length overly tight trousers and a pair of Mince Trotters*...
It seems for various reasons the train situation is not one that is likely to improve – I assume these issues are on weekdays when rolling stock is utilised with commuters at rush hour and this is less of a problem at weekends? So unless the government/train operators invest in new rolling stock...
The main transport problem is obviously Southern – on Monday all the trains from Falmer to Brighton were 4 (or 3) coaches, until the 22:29 which had 8 coaches. We had to get on the 22:36 which was back to 4 coaches.
The other problem is that the station is probably TOO CLOSE to the stadium...
[Not] Surprised that West Ham have been picked for TV again!

Is there a site that tracks the stats for UK TV games?
