I went to Lidl. I have these to try out this evening.

Can't be - I don't have a girlfriend.

...I just want people to understand that thousands of people do not want to be fighting Ukrainians and are not evil. It’s the people telling them to go that are. Nice idea, and I'm sure it's true in some cases, but Putin & his mates sitting in a bunker in Moscow aren't the ones committing the i...

If there's evidence, bring it on.

However the Republicans are very strong on accusing and finger-pointing, yet somehow never manage to produce any evidence. Ever

JFC Dave!, you're not seriously both siding Russia's invasion are you ? You need to get out of whatever echo chamber you're getting that from. At what point, in anything I’ve ever written on the subject have I been pro invasion ? I didn't say you're pro invasion. You're both siding when it's very o...

How does a jury system work where you have a high profile policitican being tried in a state where most of the populace vote for the other side? Would you be happy being tried by a 'jury of your peers' in that instance? I wouldn't. The crimes were done in NY, the trial gets held in NY. Simple as th...

...I don’t think he is evil though. He has stated many times that he wants to leave / dismantle NATO, and that he has a plan to end Russia's invasion of Ukraine instantly. Obviously he doesn't :lol: but it could only happen by denying Ukraine agency in the matter and letting Putin have the entire c...

Imagine if the level of effort put to Trump to find issues was put to all politicians. How did they get all the power, does any normal person actually get into power at all ? Dave! Dave! - I don’t entirely disagree but where are you getting this pro-Trump whataboutism from ? Serious question. From ...

Hey @drcarlos - is this you ??

The enrichment was getting elected.

Not sure you'd be able to prove causation on that.

Well, he got convicted on all 34 charges. QED.

Cayenne failed its MOT yesterday, for parking brake efficiency. I never use it so I’d not noticed. Today I pulled them apart and there was only half a piece of friction material across all four shoes :lol: Three were completely bare. No sign of where they’d gone either. New shoes fitted today but th...

I can't see where the element of enrichment or loss was going on here... The enrichment was getting elected. The story coming out right before the 2016 election would have jeopardised that, the whole "catch & kill" was crucial to not derailing his campaign. On that basis DoJ were able...

Engine noise, speed, rate of acceleration, even time since last gear change… some or even all of these are used to know when to change up or down. You shouldn’t really need to look down at a rev counter I agree with this. If you're thrashing it to the point you're constantly near the redline you sh...

This is a good outcome. Can he run while serving a sentence? Seems impossible that he can run for president when convicted criminals can't vote (I think). He could be jailed and still be President, the US is that weird. Despite convicted felons not being allowed to vote, or hold security clearance....

I'm now curious, but also terrified of googling it.

Mine goes backwards

Weather. Especially our winters where it fluctuates either side of freezing instead of staying one side or the other.

Apart from 15 metres faster on the quarter mile. It does the quarter mile in 15 metres less than a quarter mile ? Impressive ! If they're genuinely quoting quarter mile performance as a relative measure and in metres now, it's just an obvious misdirection from discussing how the time difference is ...
