I checked, as he is Prince by Blood it is not something that can be removed.
HRH can and has been lost.

Once you tell us, it becomes canon.

And two thumbs.

The full film version is a hard, but brilliant, watch.

Judge: I draw my own conclusions with respect to her robustness and her honesty.

One food that you refuse to eat. One movie that you'll never watch again. And one song you can't stand.

Tripe.

I would be so glad to see the Mango Shit Gibbon disappear. Lying liar who lies.

It was bloody well paid, BUT I was on call 24/7 even on holidays. For a time I was working regular 100+ hour weeks when we had major releases going out, and being in work for over 24 hours was not unknown.

Best. Job. Ever.

A friend had a rescue when we were kids and they called her Daisy.

About 10 years later, she had to go to the vets for something and came home a him.

I would have happily swapped running a bank's branch systems for going through school again*.

* as long as I got the money; a lot more than I earn today.

The two years leading up to the millennium was a nightmare.
OUR software was tight, iirc there were ~10 problems, but 3rd party systems we dealt with where a nightmare.
One favourite was 'we just default everything forward or back depending on what makes sense'. The definition of 'sense' was missed.

After 40+ years of this shit, I know how lifting a few good nights can be.

Hopefully you get a few more.

How does ir feel?
I've heard it doesn't warm some things.

Brilliant, I think that confirms my searchings

Enough of the science, what do I get?

I am under orders from FelesΓ©gΓ©m to solve this!

Perchance do you know the brand?
Are they ceramic ones?

No gas, only electricity.

Getting pans with detachable handles was a game changer with respect to this trick.

I normally do that with the roaster when I'm making gravy. Why would it be hot after an hour or two in the oven?

That's the point: two rooms - upstairs and down - not big space but electric only choice.

Currently have aged convection heaters and I want to reduce the running cost.

I'm not upset, just very disappointed.
Now go to your room William and think about what you've done.
