It's a wonder the internet works at all!

Oh, gotta go - another box of drivers just landed, and I need to send an email later, so I'd best get these ones working! 👋

"If oi was tha' Rockefeller feller, oi'd be richer than 'im."
"Oh arr? 'Ow d'ya reckon?"
"Oi'd do 'bitta winda cleanin' on the soide..."

Best part of being a Linux user is... not having to deal with either Apple or Microsoft.

Underrated comment.

I'll never understand why god needs money. Surely after creating heaven and earth, she'd be able to come up with a few quid to help herself out?

This is how we end up picking holes in each other online. You could have said you fell into one of the exceptions instead of baldly challenging my comment by saying it was a myth.

If your situation meant the buyer could walk away, it was obviously legal for them to do so.

Of course they are. An offer in Scotland has to be made in writing through a solicitor, and is binding. How do you think it's a myth?

I often find the banks aren't full: they just have someone's awkwardly shaped / overfilled bag stuck in the chute. I've become adept at pulling them out, repacking correctly, and then putting them in AFTER I've made sure my bags go in first. Being 6ft helps.

Irish friend ran a bar in Santa Ponsa, 90s. Was shocked at the reaction to the "time" bell on his first visit to a UK pub. He installed a bell in his own pub, and rang it every 20 minutes or so after 11 until about 4am. Made a fortune with waves of English rushing to buy "last orders" at each bell.

Lucky Scots law didn't apply. Offers on property there are legally binding.

God's work, eh? I'm no theologian... but I think it's a fair bet you aren't either!

They haven't gone bust - they're rebranding to TG Jones and closing most of the high street shops.

Much like 50 years ago, it's a developing situation.

Dear dear.

Dream Brother and Lover, You Should Have Come Over are outstanding, both for the drumming and songwriting.

I've said it before on here and elsewhere: all the best bands / albums are where the drummer gets thrown the keys and told "Catch... you're driving."

Is it possibly more pedantic to point out that the opinion stated is that 2 of the songs are just not masterpieces of songwriting, while the rest are?

Having said that, both the stated songs have endured, one for some centuries!

We've gone on holiday by mistake...

Handle checks out.

Same! ...and I don't even drink! 😂

Absolutely standard. NEXT!

This has always been the case! First person responsible is the Company Secretary, who's role is as company legal oversight. It's their duty to flag up any issues to the Board, and mandatory to report law transgression to authorities. "Ltd liability" only protects Directors acting within the law.

More proof that the end of humanity will arrive precisely because, the dumbing-down of "people" mean it was more convenient to fix a problem by buying something on Amazon, than looking at the actual cause.

I've operated vans since the 70s - starting out with the MK2 Escort - and, since I'm now retired, my old Berlingo (3 vehicles ago now), at 8.5 years continual operation will have been the longest-lived and most reliable vehicle I ever owned.

13 months now. Don't miss any of it.

Answer both parts, showing all workings.

A train of 4 equal length sides leaves a station, accelerating for 60 seconds to 100kph. Travelling for 10 minutes at this velocity, it then takes 120 seconds to decelerate to a stop at the next station.

a. Which side is the front?
b. Where should I sit?

I've done college / uni 4 times now for different subjects, and this was never how groups worked in any of them.

MD of a large engineering company I contracted for claims his C was cured by going to see a woman who makes "vibration water" as a cure. Months of radiation treatment were discounted as useless, in favour of the cure having instead been due to drinking water from some old bint.
