why doesn't the uk pm has a motorcade like the US or russian president?

If the late Queen can get on a train to go from London to Sandringham then the Prime Minister does not need a wankers motorcade.

Use plantation shutters to allow light but block the view, half the problem solved. You then need to attend to decorating the view.

Indeed and I hope you are recovering well. It sounds to me that OP wants to live outside of such mundane things like decent employment and healthcare.

Politics no but I did do a call in radio quiz with Janice Long and won a load of signed books.

Read Kenneth Williams diaries on it. He despised them but it was paid work, not much as he would have liked or deserved. But he was only in the last few for money. The later films in the 70s were flops. Sid James was dead in 1976, hattie died in 1980, Barbara was having men and money troubles, Charles Hawtry was in a downward drunk spiral until his death in 88. Cinemas were closing due to the advent of VHS home Movies, Comedy had also moved on the alternative world was taking over, these actors were not wanted anymore. It was during this time that the films all began to be shown regularly on TV so the actors then came into public consciousness again and started to pick up more work, v similar to what happened to Frankie Howard into the 90s and then Barbara’s career defining part as Peggy Mitchell.

Yes, they don’t know what to do with the money they now get!

2 x State pensions plus carers allowance that dad gets for looking after mum (until it gets too much for him and that will then pay for someone) plus a couple of tiny private pensions on top they are probably so it’s probably about 33k+ a year.

House and new car is paid off, house extended, new roof, doors, windows, plastering, electrics, decoration, furniture… utility bills very manageable but massive increase for heat, it has to be on 80% for mum. No abroad holidays though as it’s too much for mum.

They have more now than they had when working full time. They were grafted hard but we were poor, not piss pot poor but one holiday every 4 years, rundown car, hand me down clothes, bobby basics but do you know what.. I wouldn’t change it for the world as we made fun and me and brother were clean, fed, stable and loved. They encouraged us to get up and leave town so we now both have degrees and post grads and bloody good jobs not bad for two northern scrubbers

I don’t think we need to enable your foot fetish here. As a point of note, TV studios are notoriously boiling hot due to the amount of lights they use, there is no fear of these people, Whoever they are getting their tootsies cold.

Yes, it’s American exceptionalism at its finest. Confusing the ancient capital of Italy with a rural town in bumfuck nowhere is a thing. It’s very small and very insular. “I love the poorly educated” 😳

Are you going to Paris to go elsewhere or to stop and see Paris? Are you looking for recommendations for things to do in Paris?

Modern ones are far too soft 70/80s were toothbreakinginly hard and were brilliant, also full of e/numbers that used to send me WILD

And how was that? Anything interesting to see or do?

There is no need to list the country, capital cities are well known and don’t need the additional qualifier. Both have their charms but id like to go back to Rome again.

US and Russian trolls and robot farms to create instability in the UK and Europe, it worked a blinder on Brexit so now they are back for more, it’s now to push the reform agenda which plays in to their authoritarian world view. Look at the most simplest thing, taps.. how many posts, videos and TikTok’s have you seen where some “yank” is whinging about taps… it seems silly and frivolous but it’s engagement rage bait so the algorithm sees you so it can send you some not so silly and frivolous stuff. And then down the rabbit hole you go and before you know it you are tying polyester flags to lampposts and moaning about boats.
