Either I am misunderstanding of the concept or it hasn't been thought through. If it is a 15 minute walk or heaven forbid, cycle, from home to the pub, it can't be 15 minutes back home again unless they are mounting the houses on railtrack so at kicking out time, instead of calling a taxi to...

Because they lost.

How do you know that no one has checked on them?

I am fairly certain that there is going to be a civil war in the Self-Servative PARTY within the next 5 years, probably just after the next general election, which I expect to see a Labour majority of over 100 seats. I expect them to try and put on a united front in front of the media between...

Gotta say that of those currently in the top flight Newcastle would be by far my favourite away (Though haven't been to Spurs, Arsenal or West Ham since they moved or renovated their grounds). Great view, plenty of transport close by and a great range of good pubs. Hate anywhere you get a worms...

Bit of a radical idea I know, but instead of the Tory MP bleating about NIMBYISM, why not use his overpaid position the bring about legislation to allow people to apply for asylum WITHOUT having to pay crazy fees to human traffickers and risk their lives crossing the channel. Yeah, okay, far...

I think I know the Union. Have met quite a few of the "senior figures" over the years and remember the current president sitting proudly showing me photos on her phone she had taken from the train that day

Magnet fishing in rivers and canals (though difficult to do indoors admittedly), even set yourself a target to see how many shopping trolleys, guns and knives you can catch each week, and if REALLY lucky maybe even catch some unexploded ordnance from the second word war. And don't need to go...

PR37 was kept in Steven Jordan's back pocket when he was about Mbappe's age, didn't stop him having a wonderful career selling shirts to idiots though.

At the minute I have just over a year left on my mortgage, so when that is paid off I am thinking of buying a two bed apartment that I can use initially for a three week break in June and ten days or two weeks in September, with family and close friends using it July and August, then in about 7...

I live in a mid-terrace house, and I would rather not have my windows put through by the neighbours..... I'm currently thinking about downloading a "learn to speak Bulgarian" course, though that is because I have been looking at apartments in Sunny Beach with a view of buying one for my retirement

Their club was literally founded as a torys toy project after the Peoples club wouldn't be ripped off (he was also a mason and a member of the Orange Order, so NOT sure how he would feel about them singing IRA songs and booing the National Anthem). But they dont like being reminded about...

Online shopping has certainly cost the small independent retailer a lot, but the out of town shopping centre opposite the office I work in would have had nowhere near the footfall of 2019 levels, if this was due to Amazon etc or the cost of living, rising energy bills etc, I couldn't say...

Unfortunately for shops to remain open they need customers. If people have had 12 years of wage cuts, rising rent or mortgage payments and rocketing energy prices then they have no money left to spend in shops. Apart from shareholders spending their dividends, but they are spending in the shops...

Is it nearly ready yet?

With Western nited against Melbourne Victory at 7am on BT Sport No chance I am going to be sobernby the time the Hammers match starts never mind finishes

I can remember watching the news about April May time in 2020 and listening to companies that had stitches, sewing machines and experience of producing high quality produce that had offered to make PPE, the government never even got back to them to explore the potential.

The shop displays I was referring to would now be circa 50 years ago tbh, and no doubt The shopkeepers decorated their stores to enhance footfall as well as to mesmerize 4 year old boys like myself, but I suppose that my Christmases have been better because there has nearly always been a...

Companies that didn't exist when "lobbying" ministers - pals for contracts?

Tesco own brand Orange and Mango diluting juice. 4 cans of IPA in the fridge so will probably have one of them after doing the visiting rounds this evening, little to nothing tomorrow but a liver of Smirnoff here, a bottle of Gluwein with orange, clove and cinnamon for boxing day and a Morgans...
