Hooray for Greggs having actual people & a bit a of compassion.

Ended up staying in that travelodge (which apparently has regular powercuts) & then the TV died at 2130.
Only 1 member of staff and he had limited support and no phone signal to ask for help. I'm hoping TL deal with my praise for him.

I've submitted a form so need to wait 5 days for that to be read. Moto have no reply yet.
Greggs replied almost ASAP to my message about staff member not letting into the warmer services building with better emergency lighting and apologised and put credit on my app account.

Like night and day!

It could be, but you didn't say that. You indicated that giving up alcohol could allow you to live longer.
It's not extra hours in your youth you get, but those at 95 where nothing really works anymore and your friends are dead.

After the state of social media and apparent journalism over the last 24hrs, it was a pleasant surprise of random calmness.
Well done the wool people!

Most possibly but any extra time is in your 90s living off medication and unable to move properly....

You see it more now in online rants, all about the winning rather than the reason why someone should join politics to start with.
It shouldn't be about winning or losing or personal opinions, but the good of the community and listening to those that actually have knowledge of that chosen field.

It says natural but I'm not sure it really worked though reviews are good.
It is much more expensive elsewhere so if you want to try, grab it from a Morrisons.
Smells nice but is brown and runny...

I found this voltorol naturals in Morrisons earlier for £9. It certainly won't be as effective as the usual diclofenac gel but pretty certain I'm using too much of that!!

I had the same same at my knee op. Apparently they ask upto 60.
We had just filled in the current meds form, and explaining in detail my gyne jab and why my last period was about 100yrs ago, but she still insisted on some wee...
I get the safety aspect but sometimes it seems silly and hurtful.

Excused as I likely knew of the defendant and any of the CSI staff.

Going to ring the service tomorrow, but are forensic staff still excused, there aren't many of us in digital, & if that evidence is used, I would know the witness, even though I'm now 'across the border'?

Perhaps if they stopped paying the councillors that would make a saving.
It's not like the reform cllrs have started in the volunteer parish/town roles, no straight to main council and payments!

Look! We've found the grumpy racist tories!!

Eddie does pop up on sm, but actually getting stuff done is a bit harder. They've cancelled the net zero and still no reply on pushing through the warehouses. CCTV in areas still broken despite them complaining before.
Don't mention potholes in Corby!
Not surprising there is a bit of bribery tbh!

Isn't that what Boris implemented with his Brexit charges specifically to make it harder to stop planning 'because of newts'?

I don't suppose all those separate doctors visits are free are they?
One way for someone to make a profit!!

When Mock the Week ended the other year because they couldn't beat the weirdness of the actual news, bet they didn't think it would end up in this state, and it's not likely to get back to sensible educated politics for some time yet!!

Until we can spend crypto Internet money in Tesco, it's not really much use!

Why use the term teenagers instead of men?
It did interest me when the descriptive terms for young people are used in news reports.
Youths, teenagers, children, boys, girls and men/women.

If these young men had stabbed someone at the age of 19, would you still call them teenagers?

They'll all be represented somewhere in the event. You can see the armoured PSNI ones sometimes.

There are only so many 'free' officers trained for this duty countrywide, so they get grabbed on their rest days.

@brickcop.bsky.social might make a lego of them..

Mutual aid.
Events like this are always policed by people from many areas as so many staff are needed.
Look up 'I've met the met' and the stickers used, they are often visible on vehicles brought into help for MA.
