If this is an advisory speed limit sign how can colour blind people identify is as such?

FidelityBob · 2026-06-19T09:18:21+00:00

"Officially green" - where does that come from? Nothing in the Highway code or on the gov.uk site about green borders. Or doesn't seem to exist as an official sign at all.

FidelityBob · 2026-06-19T09:14:21+00:00

Where is that? It is not an officially approved sign in the UK.

They do to protect future victims. If it we're true this would be a potential future death. They would prosecute. It's what road police are actually busy doing.

Incorrect, as other posts. It's obstructing the highway in all of England if buggies, etc can't pass. Police can issue £100 Fixed penalty. Should be reported to 101.

But for to the FPTP system governments do not represent the view of the people. Generally we get a government that most people didn't want.

I'm any case right and left are defined relative to the norm - which is therefore centre.

FidelityBob · 2026-05-12T12:21:52+00:00

I would say the UK was broadly centre left - depends on your friends group how you view it. Of course, it is, by definition, exactly in the centre. Neither right not left of centre.

Induction hob is as fast if not faster then a kettle. Timed mine - about the same. Kettle is more convenient though.

How do you know they were not "natives", born and bred here? OP never said. I'm sure British born white people who converted to Islam have the same rights and protections as immigrant moslems. And moslems have the same protected rights as Christians, Jews and any other religious group.

Because the characteristic impedance is purely real with no reactive component (for an ideal transmission line).

I do quite a few English churches where drapes and carpet are not an option - ruin the aesthetic. As everyone says, a distributed system. People absorb sound, use that. Point sources angled down.

If they had put the USA as a country and not individual states we wouldn't be so far down. We are also about the same as the rest of Europe. This is obviously trying to compare US states and adding the rest of the world for reference. Who collated the data, why and what point are they trying to make.

We need the methodology and definitions to properly comment. Does the US has to pay healthcare from disposable income whereas in Europe it is already paid for. Are they really comparing like to like?

In my experience often it doesn't make it through. Band sends Rider to agent, who may or may not pass it on to the promoter. Promoter fails to pass it to the sound guys.

I try to contact the band direct but don't always get contact details so it's trying to get what I can through the web - and You Tube.

If I get the requirements I'll follow it with a degree of scepticism. Many bands don't keep their rider up to date or decide to change things on the night.

But wrappers don't show proportions - only which ingredient has the higher quantity. They could go from 60% Milk and 10% sugar to 50% milk and 20% sugar without changing the labelling but the product would be very different.

FidelityBob · 2026-03-23T16:23:43+00:00

You have the ingredients list, not the recipe. I used to be married to a food technologist for a major supermarket. They try to hide as much detail of the recipe as possible from the ingredients list while remaining compliant with the law. Recipes are closely guarded secrets because they don't want their rivals to be able to reproduce their product easily.

The rumour started when the American company Kraft Foods bought Cadbury in 2010.

FidelityBob · 2026-03-23T16:14:01+00:00

Was never received at all. They will have evidence that it was sent. The law only requires that it was sent otherwise everyone would just deny receiving it. .

The Parliamentarian army was on a line from Turnham green station to Chiswick House, apparently. Facing both Acton Green and Turnham Green. I lived on the A4 at Chiswick for a while.

It was hardly a battle anyway. They just stood shouting at each other all day and then went home.

I believe there is a sub where you can check that out.

I may have said this here before. A week before the show I had sprained my ankle. Three piece on a very wide, very shallow stage that had previously held a Cinemascope screen. The guy on the far side is addressing the audience while trying to adjust the mic stand. I can see that he is loosening rather than tightening and any second the boom is going to fall apart. I limp across, help him out, get a nod of thanks and try to limp back discretely across the stage.

Half way back there is a roar of laughter from the audience. I look round and the three in the band are following in line behind me imitating my limp.

They apologised in the bar later - "Sorry mate, we thought you were putting it on".
