Another pointless thread

I was promised I could retire at 65 when I signed up for full time employment all those years ago. Now I'm told I won't get e state pension until I'm 70 and the government is trying to steal my works pension from me. This all goes back to a certain Mrs T! She sold our country to the highest...

There are five speed bumps in our street. It is a one way street, maybe 250 metres long, and residential only, yet they put 5 bumps in it. Everywhere here there are bumps, and roundabouts seem to be sprouting like mushrooms now too. Though on one main road they did put a roundabout back to traffic ...

Strange isn`t it , that in this technologically advanced age with wireless headphones and other sound cancelling magic , people cannot appreciate that their personal "racket" might not be acceptable to others around them ? I noticed in the press last week that a chap had been fined for recording th...

A cricket bat would work. Applied hard to the back of the head!:wink: We had a noisy neighbour, then his mother moved out to live with her boyfriend(don't ask!) He now rents the house from her and all is serene.8)

Whoooppppeeee! Spooks is coming back. One of the few and decreasing number of justifications for having the idiot's lantern.

Brilliant piece of tv - intelligent Big Brother almost ! I agree with the company/self motivation/independance rather than the period - very moving in parts and very well put together. I like Spooks - will be looking out for its arrival ( maybe the details are top secret ? ) Amazing how tec...

I dunno - I keep asking why ? Oh well - I've coped with 1) lost power upstairs last year because of a brand new time switch [ faulty ] while I was away getting my K-x , 2) a leaking roof 3) the discovery of 7 wasp nests in my attic 4) a massive redecoration project [ horrifyingly expe...

My daughter did some decorating a few years back and decided she would replace the light switches, she managed quite well with the simple ones but then I got a call for help. She had removed a three gang switch which formed part of a three way circuit for the hallway, a switch for the bathroom and ...

I`d tell him where to stick his feedback !! As long as you have specified non post to Italy that`s good enough - not your fault that Ebay can`t allow proper editing of countries/areas. On Amazon - if your buyer is "not happy" they "prefer" you to accept it back...........................I sold a ...

I did enjoy driving our Series 2A - it had the obligatory spider and moss growing in the window channels :) Daughter number one learned to drive in it - but failed her test :( the examiner was tiny and really struggled to climb up into it - he got his own back on her :) Second test was done ...

Our Tesco has a lot of gift/jumbo boxes of chocolate and some mince pies so far, didn't notice anything else Xmas-related today (although they seem to have more Lego than previously). I have just managed to take some horrifically soft photos with a good lens (SMC K 28mm f3.5) by trying the sugge...

I'd rather not have Tesco, or ASDA for that. In fact I'd prefer to buy my food fresh from the corner shops... ...except they've all but been eliminated by soup er more cash's.:wink: Fight back!:shock: Grow more of your own food! We did this summer, delicious. More wine please...:...
