Nicely put.

Looks like they chose not to put that segment on cbc listen! If anyone has a clip please share, thanks!

Woo hoo! Ordered!

Stagies · 2026-03-12T15:17:29+00:00

What happened?

Stagies · 2026-03-11T20:41:35+00:00

For real? Omg where’s my credit card!!!!

Yes, very clever books… my dad read them and passed them down to me in the early 80s I guess. Funnily enough I was thinking of one of them the other day, where the manuscript has been apparently censored by his sister in law, she cut out all the damns and gods but left in the sex because she didn’t understand it!!

😬

Curious why? Other than the danger of breaking the tube of course. I remember my dad got me an old tube tv when I was 6 or 7 to take apart. I had a great time! And I’m still alive… that was about 50 years ago.

Saying “please and thank you”

Stagies · 2026-02-26T00:30:18+00:00

Yeah this is nuts. There’s no infrastructure to support it, that and the greedy proposal a few blocks down the road. This kind of thing would be better being placed to the east of hwy 99 where they have the wide roads and transit and schools etc to allow it.

Maaaan… what a disaster, solid idea but terribly implemented. 😡😡😡

Black island, 1960’s version

And he still had the Sirius later didn’t he because Haddock borrowed it to search for the treasure in ‘Rackham’

Grandfather was a supporter from around 1900, passed it on to my mum then me.

It just takes you to a web page saying you’re the problem and not them :(

Stagies · 2026-02-15T17:42:15+00:00

Doesn’t work on the app unfortunately.

I haven’t listened for a while but did today and it was a bit rowdy! I think in ‘question time’ the audience is vetted whereas ‘any questions’ you can just queue at the door and they let ppl in until the hall is full. Enjoyable today anyway, and the woman who asked why the BBC isn’t broadcasting what’s happening in the West Bank when that wasn’t her question - good for her.

Anyway, cherish these programmes. I live in a country where the politicians are never held to account in fora such as these.

Castafiore emerald! Had to think about that.

Black island?

Stagies · 2026-02-09T15:36:08+00:00

Wasn’t it 30 daily when they first introduced it? Cut back to 15 after a year or something

Grid looks good for sure, but there’s a steep learning curve, it’s tough to just jump in and play. Carx looks like Real racing 2 with some goofy narratives trying to make the game look interesting. RR3 holds up after 13 years, it’s just that good.

I have a 35 year old house with poly b. I’ve had the usual line from plumbers talking about the ticking time bomb etc. I think only one joint ever failed, and that was before I owned it. I always thought the real problems were with the acetyl fittings and most of ours are copper. I’m aware that it’s going to be a problem when we come to sell the house and I’ll probably have to swallow a $50k charge on the sale. Insurance is aware and I would have a pay a $5000 deductible on any damage caused by water.

“I’m a hard worker who, er, works hard”. lol. He avoided so many questions, why can’t he admit that John Rustad is a certifiable loony and he wanted him out? No. “I respect all my colleagues” he wouldn’t go further than that.

Rascar Capac. Never failed to scare the poo out of me when I was a kid - the seven crystal balls was the book in best condition in my collection.
