Middle class woman of a certain age. Knows how to deal with stupid people.

And he hasn't got a GCSE level qualification in English!

One less thing for people not to bother voting for! Our PFCC elections last year had a miniscule turnout.

Maybe if the cabinet got their act together and worked in harmony, rather than this constant drip feed of utter shite. Or is it just the "journalists" who are the ones doing a shite job trying to stay relevant?

She definitely wears a serious looking tea cosy ;-)

I found some other reading material one summer when Bro was at Scout camp and I was sleeping in his room because mine was being painted 😱

I had to get express permission to read Bro's comics.

It's the bubble mentality. So far inside baseball that even they have to speculate in order to keep talking. The rest of us just want to know what is happening in the world, not in someone's head. 99% of it has no actual relevance to anything at all. It's a figtree of some deranged imagination.

It's possible that any change in council tax will not go to the relevant councils, but will be paid over to central government. There is no current process to do this, so that will be an additional cost. But it means more local cash leaving the arae, rather than central cash coming in.

That doesn't seem to be how daily podcasts work. You have to rake up enough content to fill at least 30 minutes a day, so anything is fair game.

This is what they have to do if they want to stage a leadership challenge.

Are 20% of MPs going to manage to agree on a candidate to nominate?

Our local tyre place can do pretty much anything at the drop of a hat. I needed 2 tyres one day at work. Nowhere in Rugby could do it in less than 4 days. Rocked up at local place in Dav at 5.15 and was home by 5.30 with 2 new tyres.

Last time I had a flat, the nice RAC man put a temporary plug in, pumped it up to get me home, and I got a new one at the local* tyre place. I'd actually got the flat next to a tyre place, which had closed about 10 minutes before I left work and drove round the corner to find I had a flat. 1/2

The swimming pool we went to from school had rows of hip baths in cubicles behind the main changing cubicles. When we had school galas, we used them as changing rooms. When you finished your race, you could go and submerge in the hot bath (usually 2 to a bath!).

Drove her back here to sort out a domestic emergency, then back to NGH for an appointment with her sick husband, then finally sat down for a set of back to back meetings. At 4pm, I decided as I'm not training tonight, I'd kiss off the last our in the local office and came straight home. I'm bushed!

That's me. And I've just driven into Northampton for the third time today. Once is enough for anyone!

This should be on all film posters, trailers and promotional material.

Royal blue. I think I'd grown out of it by '73 and it was more for crawling about in the back garden. I had a parka for school.

Are they going to make our high streets beautiful again by removing all the unsihhtly graffiti on zebra crossings?

And the vape shops round here are owned by longstanding local families. I think parents & grandparents would wonder if moving from Birmingham is classed as immigration.

And get cancelled! The move towards divisiveness in any and all media output means anyone who stands up for what they believe in is immediately pilloried, has to apologise and usually has to resign for speaking the truth.
