Yes HWT. So often those responsible have a thuggish mindset and zero capacity for emotuonal intelligence. When you hear such poignant, moving statements read by the victims' families with incredible eloquence given the circumstances, let's not ruin it with the person responsible able to stare...

Although I obviously don't condone what the other poster said about austerity, I do disagree - even if it's not the popular view. Forcing convicts to come to the courtroom just gives them a platform, an opportunity when they have nothing else to lose, to mouth off during sentencing. The...

Wilfried Zaha's pacifier?

In a competitive market, I plumped for Jim: https://www.drivewithjim.co.uk/ Fantastic bloke, and though it has been a few years since I passed (first time, I might add), I would recommend him to relearners and novices alike. Prices have shot up a fair bit, mind o.O

Not true on the aeroplane bit. My partner works in aviation and tells me that the first commerical transatlantic flight with 100% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is due for launch late this autumn.

Purely playing my inimitable role of Devil's advocate, do you share similar feelings towards Nicola Sturgeon, her recent arrest and her party under investigation for *allegedly* misappropriating public donations? BJ, certainly a cretin displaying very strong psychopathical traits. But morally...

Three soldiers died of heatstroke in the Brecon Beacons a few years ago after a gruelling march while training for the SAS.

Co-inciding with exponential advances in AI... The future's bright? Oh wait that's not right...

Answers on the back of a postcard please.

With regards to point 1, your blood vessels are not just a bunch of straight cables going from A to B. They're an immeasurably complex network of capillaries that must reach almost every cell of the body. They can grow and adapt to changes in body structure. The blood will not hit a dead end; it...

Fair enough. But remember Dahl had the privilege of being alive when the edits came through for the first editions, he could have discussed the changes and argued why certain bits shouldn't be changed. The latest adaptation comes long after he's died. I don't think it's the right thing to change...

I think my biggest gripe with this is that the edited version isn't written by the original author. So if you had one original copy of Roald Dahl's book alongside the newer version, they would bear only a passing similarity. Like comparing apples and oranges, his name might be on the cover, but...

I signed up on a whim for this round of the ballot. Not been picked yet. Fortunately I have no family commitments so if my number's called, the total cost won't be too astronomical.

My two pence: I refereed grassroots between 2006 and 2011. Kids, teens and adult county league games - it was a good little top-up to my paper round earnings each week. Probably averaged a couple of games each week and countless tournaments during the off-season in the summer. Looking back, and...

Thanks for the replies. Course Monday is the start of the week...I just need to explain to a colleague that when he says 'next Sunday' he's actually referring to this Sunday coming i.e. the Sunday of 'this' week.

Does the week begin on Sunday or Monday? I need a consensus view. Thanks in advance.

Hey, I Just wanted to follow-up on this thread to say I followed this ^ course of action and it worked. After the company gave me the run-around for almost a month, I sent off a statutory demand and now I have a refund and goodwill gesture to show for my trouble. Thanks Easy10, and thanks to...

Li'l shyster...

I'm too scared of repercussions to name DPD Local as the...oh shit... The moral of this story is, there's no such thing as a reputable delivery company. I should've hired a car. .
