You have an office in your car?

[Steve Jobbs]”Of course I do. I have an iPhone”[/Steve Jobbs]

I live 5 minutes from the office in the car so popping in or out of the office is absolutely fine. I've done 2 hours at home first, then nipped into the office for a face to face, back home for lunch and a few hours ans then gone back in for a 16:00. (to be around for deliveries) I've full IT kit at...

Do you reckon the boredom is down to the specific job you do - not suited etc. ?

IT s perfectly suited to remote working so I don't have that issue.

Is it just the people or is the environment ? I like meeting up with people in my department because, as we have no fixed days in the office, it's variable who'll be in the day you are so it's not the same faces. Downside is that from time to time, the office can be quite empty so if you're on a cal...

That's cool - there's fly over here of the current one at the end of the month so looking forward to that.

Interesting vid - I didn't know the props spun in opposite directions on each side

The Final - Attack on Wembley - on Netflix Documentary about the Euro's final in 2021 and what happened outside before and during the game. I'm a football fan (Gooner - "It's the hope that kills you" :lol: ) so found this very interesting. I of course saw the news reports but I had no ide...

Footage shared on social media shows large plumes of black smoke billowing into the sky near the A460 Orbital Island in Cannock with 10 fire engines rushing to the scene at 6:15am. Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service said the fire started at Super Smart Services – a distribution warehouse “which ...

This anywhere near you ?? - looks nasty

By BIL actually met someone who's made genuine real world money on BitCoin at his Martial Arts DoJo Not sure when he got in or got out but he bought a load and then sold it and was able to buy his house outright and mortgage free with the profits. I was beginning to think these people didn't exist. ...

A cyclist hit a pedestrian.

It is, therefore, the cyclist's fault.

End of discussion.

I suppose that's my point - if now, cyclists are entitled to cycle wherever they are legally allowed to be and no matter what the circumstances, it a car happens to be in that same space, it's automatically the Car's fault, then yeah, lots of junctions are going to need to change. Or else extend the...

Looking at that, I'd suggest that in order to have a clear view of oncoming cyclists, especially if it's a Van or 4x4 letting you out, you would already need to most of the way across the road before you'd have that clear view. Although the perspective of google maps view might distort things. And t...

Yeah I know Rich. I would not envy anyone driving regularly in a city these days

I think the Mini was turning right, not left :lol: After 18 years, my secret identity has been revealed... :lol: https://www.bigissue.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Jimmy_Hero.jpg I see your point though. However, if I'm in the Mini and begin my turn right then try to inch forward until I can see c...

Driver definitely at fault but the cyclist kept to the inside of the curve and didn’t help themselves. How should the Mini driver have avoided this accident? - they're making a, presumably, legal left turn, they don't seem to be driving with any significant speed. The amount of time between when th...

When I visit my friends in Stirling, the local Indian Takeaway has Chicken Nugget Balti and Puzza Naan…

So perhaps our Scottish brethren aren’t the benchmark for good Indian food…

Yup… marvellous actor who played so many great roles…

The incompetence is mind boggling..
