  1. Guaranteed it’s on land owned by the airport. Exactly the same at Liverpool Dead Popstar Airport. In Liverpool it’s how you know you are on their property not public property and they have a little gimp in a camera van that sits at the end of the road photographing anyone that stops but you'll effectively get an invoice for parking not an official PCN
  2. Yeah the Walsall Rd does too
  3. Double reds are no stopping at all. It's a common misconception that double yellows mean no stopping, they mean no waiting (which is an entirely different thing) Also, a city needs an Act of Parliament specific to that city to use double reds. It used to only be London that had one but Birmingham was granted one iirc in the lead up to a bid for a large event. As far as I know they are the only two cities allowed them. If you see them anywhere else, it’s nailed on that you are on private property.
  4. Nope, you can legally stop to pick up and drop off on those double yellows. There are different sorts of double yellow lines, the no stopping at all ones have the double yellow ticks on the kerb. There are actually three different types. No ticks, single tick, double tick
  5. Are they suggesting you stop to talk to a sex worker instead of just driving slowly along
  6. Still too high. My local dropped to 133.9pfor diesel and 134.9 for petrol a couple of days ago. Another couple of pence and it'll be under £6 a gallon
  7. Its a bit of both. US have found a way AND Russia has overstated the missiles capabilities. It isn't an either / or
  8. Ah the Nat-C Conference has well known His... racist David Starkey telling the conference "White Culture" is under threat
  9. I've always used kerb for the edge of a road Curb is a verb afaic
  10. The Russians have claimed to be using them since March 22, confirmed to have been used on April 11th 2022 and plenty of times since (and the sources for that are all on the Wiki page for the missile) There's even a quote from Biden saying they are very hard to defend against Russia using their Kinzhals isn't disputed by anyone (but you obviously) I do agree that they likely don't have that many
  11. Torygraph Alok Sharma's Reading West constituency could prove an interesting by-election. The other two are nailed on safe Tory seats Alister Jack is thought to not want to resign his seat which is a shame, even though it would most likely result in an SNP victory, it may have shown current Scottish voting intentions a bit
  12. Close but lacking in cigars Wordle 697 4/6

    Pubs

    Honestly don't know, certainly none by the ground. I'm not sure any pubs show the non-UK televised games anymore and any that do will be full of Liverpool fans
  14. Confirmed by Brigadier General Pat Ryder. Look it up yourself, plenty of outlets out there reported that
  15. First one the other day has been confirmed by US now
  16. Least likely source Like I said early, the Ukrainians claimed it
  17. Ah feck, here’s that wandering minstrel bloke, your turn to humour him
  18. Oh dear... Macron and the French have just given Ukraine their version of the Storm Shadow (it was a joint development) Except SCALP has a much longer range, about 560KM. Hello Kerch Bridge
  19. Wordle 696 2/6 ... bang a bang
  20. Its anti-progressive and pandering to NIMBYism It's no different to the people that complain that when they bought their house they weren't overlooked at the back and now they are. Or that they used to have a nice view and now something has been built that spoils it.
  21. It isn't thought that they have that many because they are so new. This is Russia's newest nuclear capable missile that was boasted about as being unstoppable. The US not so long ago said they didn't think the Patriot was capable of downing the Kinzhal. It was thought theoretically possible but in reality not so probable. If this story is true, Ukraine have obviously found a way and with a weapons system they only took delivery of last month
