  1. Do not mock Ena Sharples or you will be smited!

    Energy Bills

    No doubt you've done your own research on this...
  3. The official NHS data in graph form previously posted up thread says the Heil is talking shite
  4. See ya! Love a nice risotto
  5. I became a DJ for a reason
  6. Yes, encouraging people to break the law in a public health emergency, bravo!
  7. Mask wearing has never been required in an outdoor setting. This isn't an indication of people not playing by the rules because they are playing by the rules
  8. Yep, you are the only person on this forum with an insight into the NHS and we'll all take what you say as gospel... or maybe not
  9. If you have covid regardless of why you went in, you go on a covid ward, even if you make more of the wards covid wards, it still has the effect of reducing overall capcity of the hospital It's also why the posts above about the hospitals not being stretched and its just normal are as usual utter nonsense. Normally the NHS is f***ed, with covid its extra f***ed
  10. The state of some of the veg on offer in M&S was woeful, we ended up getting lots of the veg from Waitrose in the end which we never do at Xmas. Lots of the veg in M&S was short dated to 26th too We got most of the things we wanted but odd shortages like Bay Leaves (which we normally have in the cupboard but had run out) All done now, the missus is putting it away and I have first dibs on the microwave for my chicken Madras before going out to work for a bit. Then back to work tomorrow and watch me fly home on the dot of 5

    Energy Bills

    Should cover your petrol bill from going shopping today
  12. The songs herald the coming of the feast. The feast then lasts 12 days
  13. PIcking up the Turkey and the last of the veg etc after work, hopefully it shouldn't be too much of a mission (Turkey and some of the veg is actually ordered for pickup). Already got the booze, the non-perishables and the longer life stuff Then just one more day of work but it's shaping up like the rest of the week so I'm going to be busy
  14. Up there with some of your best work, you've almost set a new low bar
  15. It was a speculative purchase based on the musicians involved. Not my bag at all, major league dullness
  16. It's worse than I feared, you've been subject to....
  17. You've been subject to too much music by The Hoff

    Ice rink

    Fake Rinks, they've been deliberately painted to look like faces
  19. Well that and The Good Law Project threatening to sue them and a Green Party peer also getting involved.
  20. Mine too but that is an entirely different point
  21. @TheAuthority From another thread but here is Richard Burton doing what he does at his absolute best... reading Dylan Thomas This was played at Christmas at my Granddads most Christmases
  22. The point is, they aren't really big life events in the grand scheme of things. Much more important and memorable events will happen in peoples lifetimes than those set events that people are going on about. When you're older (I know I know) you'll think being at the birth of your children, getting married etc will be much more important than a few pissups that are standard events in a young adults life. Thats what those events are, pissups, they aren't particularly life changing, nor are they ultimately that memorable. Young, had an excuse to get drunk. Thats it
  23. The difference in prices / average for wage isn't as much as you imagine A black and white TV cost £70 in 1970 and the average wage was £1,200 (£70 is about £800 in todays money) Whats a TV these days £500-£600? Average wage is £25,000, then you need your subscriptions to Sky / Cable / Netflix / Whatever Yes TVs a cheaper than they were but not by as much as you imagine
  24. Here's one https://www.butlersrentals.co.uk/ Here's a well known nationwide chain of them https://www.martindawes.com/tv-rentals
