He and the MPs definitely plotted this together - that's why it all worked so efficiently.
Politicians who can get shit done you say?

yeah, we don’t want them…


Nope, I didn't say, you did :lol: Churning political leaders in this country is not 'getting shit done', quite the opposite, it's ...

Not at all, the Makerfield by election and subsequent one-horse leadership challenge had everything to do with Burnham wanting to destabilise the PM.

Burnham is pledging politican stability, which is a bit rich from someone who's just ousted the PM after serving only two years.

It’s hilarious that there have been six red cards in the history of World Cup finals, and half of them are for Argentinian players. Shows exactly how they play.

Anyway, well done Spain, well deserved and glad it didn’t go to penalties because the Argentinian keeper might have won it for them.

Definitely a big GC day, those podium places are very tight right now and today's stage could blow it apart.

There's only 1m20s between Vingegaard and Del Toro in 7th. In fact, only 46 seconds between Remco in 3rd and Del Toro in 7th. It would be easy for any of them to lose more than a minute if ...

At last Gav - I didn’t catch up with this on Friday. I assume you’ll need to sell the flat to pay for your legal costs now but at least you can choose the buyer.


I'm juggling finances costs and potential pathways to deal with it right now. I want to avoid selling because it would only sell at ...

Still no idea why anyone would go through this much hassle - them, I mean - originally over letting a surveyor in? Crazy. Must be a huge relief.



Finally! The relief must be off the scale

Have you been in the flat yet?


I went in there earlier. It's grim, hard to believe anyone was living ...

Big GC stage again today, it's a long stage with a huge amount of climbing too, finishing on a big hors categorie climb.

Watched the highlights this morning, that’s an incredible result for England 8-) Not only because we beat the French, but also highest place since ‘66 and Saka the second British person to score a hatrick. Bravo, well done England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 hopefully that gives them the cojones to go on the attack, it ...

I have started writing up what happened and I think it might be an entire novel lol. Going back to the very beginning and joining up the dots, I can now also see how they were also trying construct a situation back in 2018 that would have made me powerless over the freehold. I will share more, but ...

Pogi hit an estimated 8.43w/kg for over 4 mins in his attack today

Just quoting to remind you that we were promised a full write up

Oh Christ

Lots of conversation about beans, but I need some links!

My daily, reasonably priced go-to is usually Taylors, but also found some of M&S stuff to be good as well.


I get all my coffee from White Rose in Yorkshire, they have an amazing selection of single origin coffees from around the world ...

Next steps are torts notices for them to come back and collect the junk they've left, which should take 6-8 weeks, then get the flat cleared, and after that it's all wrapped up and can be stripped down and refurbed.

Finally! The relief must be off the scale

I went in there earlier. It's grim, hard to believe anyone was living in there. There was a team on site - an ex-bailiff who was representing me, a locksmith and two security guys to do the shuttering. They all deal with ...

Cheers guys, letting it all sink in right now.

Yep, they've left the building and it's been secured and sealed with metal security panels and doors.

Dark roast is largely an economically driven choice. Coffee beans are similar to grapes for wine, each farm will produce different flavoured beans based on it's location. Also, coffee beans vary in size, and larger beans require longer roasting times than smaller beans. Therefore, if someone is mass ...

That's it, my neighbours are gone and I can't quite believe it :shock:

They're still fighting a totally fruitless legal case, they've applied once again to the courts today, and they tried taking it to the high court a couple of weeks ago, who totally dismissed their application. They've lost ...
