That’s a bit mean to old blobby , he was effing annoying but he was no republican

That’s a fair point , the birthright rule amendment stipulates. I believe, an extension to 48 hours on weekdays, but this can extend to 72 if the period begins on Friday As weekends are all inclusive. But the other modification benefits are restricted to northern line stations as befits his origins

Tell him that he needs to change at Paddington , and that it’s Friday and mid month so the Elizabeth line option is valid for 24 hours , so I’d nominate a move to Canary Wharf for lunch ;)

For balance …. After the high , the lows …. Whatever you do , don’t try Martin Shaw reading Tolkien’s Silmarillion . Despite the quality material it is the dreariest , and emotionless delivery it has ever been my misfortune to hear. I’ve heard technical manuals and read with more passion .

And this is the direction the Tories want to drive the Uk in , because not enough billionaires profit from the NHS …,

Wow… my record was 169 takes trying to get every notecc CD and transition perfect and clinical …. Eventually comped it from two , both from the first 20 . New rule applied . If it’s not there in 20 , it probably ain’t gonna be . Move on and either write new one , or comp it .

It started as a search for light weight solution due to a neck injury …. And developed in to something of an obsession. They’re all individuals , no two are identical , but they’re all great to play

Few things worse ? Sir , I humbly suggest you don’t look up Jedward , or Bros, or millivanilli , or …. I could get really mean here …. But I’m a gentleman and I have already polluted your train of thought sufficiently .. on the whole being stuck with a zombie ain’t so bad :)

How about we split the load , you come up with the money and the lambo , I’ll take care of the guitars and home studio ….

I particularly want to see the entirety of the test and trace app budget reimbursed . The UK was offered these for free from people who actually know how to write mass data tracking applications …. And wrote working software ! But no … Boris needed to slip someone a few billion instead …
