OV9

I read it once in 1997 before my Theory Test and have no plans to read it again...

I must confess I didn't know that the 2m rule applied, even if there is a designated cycle lane

And if you do get through, they're useless as they cannot disseminate complex tax rules and regulations down into a language that Joe public can understand and will not tell you anything definitive for fear of misinforming you and leaving themselves open to challenge

I was sure I had it back in Feb but kept testing negative.

I could only get Nasal tests, rather than the throat and nose ones so I'm not altogether sure I was testing correctly.

That sucks Ian but as Jobbo says, onwards and upwards.

How long were you seeing her for??

If it was a short enough period that a WhatsApp was an acceptable method then no harm, no foul.

If it was a longer period then WhatsApp is no way to do it so you’re better off in the long run.

I did that for about the first week in Australia

Good choice - I've a 65" LG OLED and it's awesome.

A Soundbar with sub might be worth looking into...

I think Voyager 1 is also kaput now. Yes, sadly... https://blogs.nasa.gov/sunspot/2023/12/12/engineers-working-to-resolve-issue-with-voyager-1-computer/ Interestingly, as the Earth moves faster than the Voyager's, at the moment, Voyager 1 is actually getting closer to the earth... Reports of my dem...

I gave my garden shed a little TLC over the weekend with a new felt roof and new shelving. It's still far too small for my needs but at least it's dry. When clearing it out. I saw the extend of the leaking - I've lost a Dremel set, a Halfords ratchet set and a crate full of painting and decorating s...

Yeah but to be honest, every review I’ve read about benefits, pros and cons etc just talks in very general terms. And the few people I know who have them rave about this and that feature, claim the you don’t miss the things you can’t do etc. Makes me think they’re justifying the expense to themselves

I’m in the market for a decent quality Charcoal BBQ but the choices are really limited. There are the ceramic types, well north of a grand and you’ve got your Webber’s (but I already have one of those) An absolute must have feature is a coal rack or a cooking rack that’s height adjustable but as I s...

Whilst I applaud you ownership of 4 mowers, I’m not going to lie, I’d be paying someone to do it if I had your place.

Danny Trejo on Saturday Kitchen Live making Prawn Taco’s is about as random as you can get…

Out of sight, out of mind!!

Start a compost set up maybe?? You’ve got the space

Do you do all the fiddly bits first, like cutting in paint, then use the ride-on for the broad sweeps ??

I think that's the way I'd do it...

And how many times do you need to empty the ride on for that garden? I presume you have several Green Bins ?

I found that it was easier to manage that stuff as I moved up as I have more autonomy. Yeah that's true... But in the past couple of years I've had two very positive experiences where they "put their money where their mouth is" 1. People left the company (employees and contractors) so I i...

From a personal perspective, I work far fewer hours than I did 20 years ago - probably 45 to 50 down to strictly 37.5 And my working life is far less stressful as my employer considers work life balance and mental health very highly. This despite being a lot more “senior” now But I get this isn’t ne...
