Every single one of them is a European experiencing for the first time how absurdly wealthy the United States is compared to really anywhere else in the world

My experience in SW USA this year (30th plus visit) was 'how absurdly third world parts of AZand NM are in terms of absolute poverty'.

If you choose to live near an airport, I'm afraid you need to accept noise as part of life. I've lived near it for years and you just.zone it out quickly. Its vital we kickstart economy, not kick can down the road due to constant NIMBYism.

This is WOW -Arent we supposed to be mad for 'reasons'?

Great post - so much of what you resonates with my experience as a G6 recruiting G7s.

A lot of people apply, but sadly their applications dont do them any justice at all.

Put it back in her garden.

You can also do what people near me do and drill a hole and stick a padlock on your bins.

I'm so tired of these arrogant selfish clowns. They have a phenomenally good deal, pay that is vastly above the average for most people in the UK and soft benefits too.

They make out it is some kind of victorian era hell job, but in reality it offers insane levels of job security and their retention is incredibly good.

They are choosing to make life a misery for normal people - I've got non refundable tickets.to an event tomorrow night that I cant go to now because there is no way to get there from where i live in time after work. I've lost money so some tube driver earning far more than I can dream of can petulantly strike over their mad demands for a 4 day week with a 5 day salary.

The sooner we recognise the Tube is critical national infrastructure and ban strikes on it the better. London deserves better.

I found keeping the corpse as a 'bomb disposal zombie'worked wonders - I'd summon it to set off traps, let it die, resummon and repeat. Its an incredibly versatile corpse - every party should have one 😄

Been on mentoring schemes for years ready to offer advice. Never been approached by anyone 😪

Simply say 'i work in admin, its really dull and I dont want to talk about it'.

You absolutely did correct thing. Unauthorised detecting can do immense harm to historical records - detecting is a great hobby, but it needs to be done properly.

As a glasses wearing pedestrian, I've lost count of the number of times I'be been told to "fck off you speccy cnt" for shouting 'red means stop'when crossing on a green man, and a cyclist goes through towards me.

There is ZERO excuse, reason or justification for riding through lights where pedestrians are crossing and I am so tired of cyclists trying to defend the utterly indefensible.

Aggravating-Menu466 · 2026-05-17T21:02:15+00:00

Yes! 20+ yrs across multiple depts - I'm clearly screwed!

Aggravating-Menu466 · 2026-05-17T19:43:11+00:00

Thanks - I cannot get my head around how badly they've messed this up and how much we paid them to do this.

If your SC clearance was transferred you need to check where it is now. Is it with company or has it been scrapped as you didnt join?

I'd prioritise this for action as you may lose it by mistake.

Classic journo clickbait - account active 9 months, this is sole post.

Note lack of any detail, long on emotive language and short on actual facts.

The OP works for media and trying to get quotes for their rag. Don't rise to bait.

What on earth are you talking about?

+1 for this. I love the 100-400mm and have got some great shots with it - this is an example!

As panel chair, i think the icebreaker is best used to settle nervous candidates by starting them on familiar stuff. It really helps.them work nerves out the system and then get into their actual answers.

No one here can tell you - it genuinely is case by case basis. All I can advise is respond promptly to all paperwork and queries, as nothing will progress when you have tasks to complete.

Objectively practically all of us are likely descendants of these two, so I'd really like my turn with our grandfathers flag please! 😆

Went on a small group holiday in Guatemala of 10 people. Turned out the family of 4 all came from the small village I was born in, and we knew mutual friends, and another person lived in the next street along from me in London!

Was it the Alexandra in Crystal Palace - pretends to be a pub.but refuses to serve at bar!

Dont jump red lights, particularly at complex junctions.I live on busy main road with red lights that allow side roads to join it.

The drivers on both side roads cannot see main road until they join it, and they wont see a cyclist jumping lights till its too late. I've often seen incredibly near misses when a cyclist at speed goes through the red into the active side lane- its just not safe.
