"But they sort of kinda work, so can't be bothered just yet".

Replaced all three wipers on the Galaxy. It was disappointingly simple and easy. Didn't take five minutes.

Difference it makes on the car is astonishing though. No smearing, squeaking or juddering. Should have done it much sooner!

Without wanting to diminish anything gone into rescuing the boys, imagine if we'd put the same amount of effort into preventing migrants drowning as they try to cross the Med.

One of the EU lot today tweeted something along the lines of now Boris and Gove have gone it’s a shame the notion of Brexit hasn’t gone with them. It was in such a way that we’d be welcome back with open arms. The opportunity is still very much there if we cancelled the whole thing. That would be a...

Unzippy is correct. And DJ, I think you’ll find that a lot of the UKIP headbangers view you as the “right sort” of immigrant (rhotacise at will). Their focus (ironically, since most of the originating countries are nowhere near the EU) is on immigrants from, ahem, different cultural backgrounds. Th...

Should be spectacular diving - they shared sea space with this chap yesterday, for example: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3cknpvwv1w0kprw/IMG-20180709-WA0021.jpg?raw=1 A motherfucking WHALE. That's AMAZING. Not jealous at all. Nope! Not one bit. Because I saw whales on my last dive too. And when I say ...

As one of the highly skilled migrants that has made a life here I can vouch that the sense of rejection is real. I, and many thousands of others, have made our home here, yet didn't get a vote in the referendum. Britain has definitely been diminished by the vote and the ensuing ugliness. Had it not ...

Positives so far: We’ll finally make the cod extinct Turbo diesel hoovers Cheap tampons All fruit & veg will be at least a month old by the time it arrived in the shops French-manufactured blue passports (possibly subject to import tariffs) Anything I’ve missed? Alienating thousands of skilled ...

September's issue is due to hit newsstands in two days. I guess that'll be 250.

Sorry to hear that.

Three SD1s on the M25 the other day. First one was in full police livery with the "police" covered.

Can't think of any foods that properly repel me, but sparkling water is absolutely hideous and I spit it out pronto if I've accidentally bought sparkling instead of still :lol: (Requote at will chaps) What's wrong with sparkling water?

Alex, I see they offer Danish as a language for the 3 words. So as a test, where does ///busser.reoler.oplæser take you? That'll be off the B4217 in Moseley in Birmingham - is that the address of the curry house we went to? One of the changes I could think of to make it more sensible is some kind o...

We've never claimed, but had to register as claiming nothing (once for each child, no ability for them to recognise that if I don't claim for the first child and have not notified them of a change in conditions I'm not going to claim for subsequent sprogs). ISTR that it can otherwise impact on the c...

I can see some merit in the idea, but not as it is currently implemented.

Needs a rethink to make it sensible.

Can't fault your commitment to the highest mileage E36 M3 in the world (you still retain the title I assume).

Looks a good result to me.

On principle I refuse to watch any "reality" TV. Just don't see the allure of watching people being idiots (irrespective of whether the answer is yes/yes/yes or not).

Corned beef is rank. Oysters and snails too. Pilchards are lovely.
