  1. Letting them off gently, mojitos are relatively easy to make pick something with banded colours next time
  2. If we're doing this map stuff, Lands End has no claim to fame. It is neither the most southerly part of mainland Great Britain (Lizard Point) nor the most westerly (Corrachadh Mòr)
  3. Here's another one from a less globally known and more disposable pop act - Erasure. Released in 1992. Stuff like Prince's Greatest Hits album (would be at least a triple even back then, more now) was never and still hasn't been released on vinyl. Some compilations fetch money, I have some reggae ones both single artist and even various artists ones that always shock me and they aren't even from that golden period value wise Erasure-Pop-The-First-20-Hits
  4. Wasn't a big run, it was towards the end of the first vinyl era. Lots of the 91-95 vinyl releases are worth a shit load because of just that. CDs had taken over but vinyl was still being pressed on ever smaller runs. The Fall's Infotainment Scan album from 93 is similarly priced. Early 90s first pressings for stuff that still has a market, is always highly priced. Another factor in that is that a lot of the people that bought vinyl then were the diehards and they have sold their collections far less than the casual buyers
  5. Off to a great start here Wordle 713 3/6
  6. Part of the problem with Oil and gas for electricity generation is that they have to buy in months in advance so those prices are locked in for months ahead
  7. No see there’s a fundamental difference between “foreign legions” that are part of a countries regular army, another example being the Squadron of Polish pilots that flew for the RAF in WW2 and PMCs like Wagner and Blackwater. The former are part of the regular army and as such are bound and protected by the Geneva Convention, the PMCs are mercenaries and are not. Lumping them together as outside forces isnt correct.
  8. Anyone tried the new Spotify AI DJ yet? Currently got it on, not convinced they’ve done much but tweak their algo and stick a silly voice on every time you press forward but it is picking a lot of music I like and as Marc Riley is no longer on at this time and will be replaced by the two inferior Toms… this maybe a solution
  9. Most of us just though you were describing your day…
  10. French Foreign Legion and the Ghurkhas are units in the respective countries regular armies. Just as the Ukraine Foreign Legion is. There are other foreign volunteer battalions in Ukraine (like the two currently prominent Russian ones and the three Belarus ones that are not part of the Ukraine Foreign Legion) The US equivalent to Wagner would be Blackwater (now Academi) The point is correct, two of the equivalents you have given are not
  11. He'll only most likely be replaced by Putin II
  12. I think it has specific rules, about a certain distance and they may have to do it in both directions
  13. The important bit in this is Volnovakha the larger town 15km to the south of where this happened as that is a crucial supply line between DOnetsk and the Zaporizhia district for the Russians
  14. If its any consolation, the NYT Bot took 5 turns to solve todays and the average number of goes was 5.5
  15. How would you know? There’s absolutely no guarantee any of that is remotely true
  16. Lolz, I keep saying this but…. Strictest test out there
  17. Guaranteed to be completely different. There's already something odd going on with the wife sat in the front and him in the back. He also states he told them both to shut up. That doesn’t sound like someone being nice to his wife especially as he decided she was upset but she was the one having the conversation and he could only see the back of her head. I reckon his missus already had the hump with him because of his behaviour prior to journey hence why she sat in the front and he just got more pissed off because she was ignoring him and talking to the driver.
  18. Easy to service but won’t get through the local authority test
  19. That's what happens to modern slaves
  20. How can you tell? It's a complaint, there are two sides to EVERY story like that I think you missed the point of that conversation, I didn't want the day off
  21. Genuine complaint.... Dear Sir, please realise that in this city, your's is a minority opinion. Good luck with your use of rival companies Please also treat you wife with a little more respect.(We haven't but we are tempted)
  22. Just Spotted House of All are playing Jimmy's in Liverpool with Marc RIley and Will Sergeant on fri 30th June. Which might be a little special
  23. Unlike Everton who will get taken up the wrong 'un
