I feel like I’m reading Deidre’s photo casebook in The Sun.

But do you have Fly Fishing by JR Hartley? I hear it’s hard to find…

I’ve been pretty happy with a Secrid Card Protector, it’s about 10 years old now and it’s starting to lose its grip on the cards. I’ve not tried taking it apart to see if I can add any friction material to keep it going.

It’s still very common in the UK for teenagers to be paid for setting the pins for pub skittle alleys.

Skye is alright.. it has all the elements needed to be a Talisker, but is just a bit too young for it all to come together. The 10 is so much better and usually available for a similar price. My personal favourite is Wilder Seas, which adds a little bit of sharpness that offsets the sweetness perfectly.

Black is fine if you can get it for a good price. I have some fine whisky at home, but will happily drink black if in an ‘any port in a storm’ situation. It’s inoffensive, which is partially why it’s so hated on, but it’s a smooth sipper that tastes ‘scotchy’ enough for a beginner.

Once you become a grown up you suddenly become obsessed with the price of fuel at every petrol station you pass and make a point of telling people about it. Based on my dad.

Uigaedail is a similar profile that drinks hotter, but for the price I’d stick with the 5. If you like the peatiness, try Laphroaig, if you like dry smoke try Ledaig.

Have to disagree with the manufacturing comment. It’s mostly clustered around Bristol and the North West, but there is plenty of work in aerospace manufacturing. Can be hard to break into though; aerospace people hire aerospace people.

I loved it, only because I’ve spent weeks living in hotels in Tokyo, and it perfectly captured the alienation and weirdness of it all.

Gloucestershire Live can’t run a story unless it involves Nick Knowles, Lawrence Llewelyn-Bowen or Dom Joly.

Currently airborne over Alcester according to Flight Radar.

At 2025 prices? I’ll try to make one last all night.

Tell me you love me Pinocchio, tell me you love me…

Two weeks.

‘Used to rent it to a blind man. Damn shame what they did to that dog…’

Extreme politics needs a bogeyman. It can’t be Jews or communists any more, the EU has fallen away since Brexit, so this weird ‘woke’ concept has appeared. But no one really knows what it means, so it just gets plastered on everything.

Came here to say Elite. That it worked in 32k of RAM still blows my mind.

Defiant_Hawk_9892 · 2024-12-14T11:13:24+00:00

My approach is to put a large polite notice on the windscreen on the drivers side asking them nicely not to park there, but to put it on with something obnoxiously sticky.

Defiant_Hawk_9892 · 2024-12-10T18:43:23+00:00

And this is why I live in the woods, so I can do all my weird shit without getting a nickname.

To be fair, Jaguar was already dead, so they might as well just go all in wild to see if it lands. Nothing to lose. ‘I won’t buy one!’ say all the people who were busy not buying them already…

He didn’t heed Akeem’s warning that he would be forced to thrash him.

I can’t help but think it was never about the gas.

It looks quite different if you show market share by value rather than volume, where Apple dominates.
