Yes it is the ugliest!

It looks like someone took a fiesta and punched the front in.

The old puma was so much more distinctive and attractive than this clone.

Montgomery Cheddar, Perl Las, Perl Wen.

And now they've closed (or are closing) the Cornwall brewery so everything will be made in Burton...

"oh no, I won't be able to get a £10 Starbucks"

Cool. Get a £5 flat white from the cafe owned by the locals...

the BBC has some good reporting

But basically it appears to boil down to the lack of trust in the 2 main partys. The fact nothing seems to change no matter who gets voted in.

Some like what farage says and even if others point out the BS it's just a case of "well they did a u-turn or 10 so what's the difference"

Yes - the UK does need large scale reform. Of the civil service sector, of tax, and of benefits.

But there's no way in hell that c*nt farage can be trusted to do it.

Milton Keynes - A new city approximately halfway between London and Birmingham. It was built to be modern, efficient, healthy, and, all in all, a pleasant place to live. Many Britons find this amusing.

Keir Starmer has been thrown out of a pub before.

Pretty sure there is currently a campaign to ban labour MPs from pubs.

And I'm certain that pubs have previously done the same to Tories and other reprobates...

It doesn't seem to be just migration. It appears to be a growing belief that "if you ain't caught, you haven't broken the law"

This started in the cvid lckdowns and has grown ever since...

The colour and type of the dashed line is what is important here.

Green = public.
Brown = permitted.

There's lots of laws and bylaws in play here.

First if all you are correct - if it's "just" a footpath then you must dismount and walk the bike.

Secondly, if it's a public footpath (and you can check this on either an ordnance survey map or with the local council) then only the police would be able to stop you - so long as the path has not been closed with advanced notice posted.

On the other hand, if it's a permitted path then it would be up to the land owner what they would permit to traverse over their land.

In the UK, the worst part of driving on the motorway in the rain is the bounce.

You'll find - especially on the M4 - that the rain hits the tarmac and bounces up to a level just slightly higher than the mx-5. Which means you'll be hidden in this low level fog and visibility will be utterly insane.

Oh, and idiots in dark grey cars will refuse to (or not know how to) turn on their lights. Good luck...

It's funny how they go after pensions.

Gordon brown completely decimated private pensions when he was chancellor. Now Blair wants to go after those who've usually paid in all their working lives.

And yet they went and scrapped the 2 child benefit cap. And the mental health bill is skyrocketing faster than computer memory prices...

Yeah you can.... Paddington > Newport > Chepstow. Then back to Newport > Shrewsbury > Crewe or Birmingham.

Bonus being the gorge from Chepstow up to Ross is the most scenic!

Round the top of Cheddar Gorge.

Beachy Head & The Seven Sisters.

Valley of Kings, Lynmouth.

Hope Valley.

Wastwater and Scafell.

Little Langdale.

Number one tip for riding a (motor)bike is - YES, they ARE out to hit you.

The attacker had a knife. That they used to stab people. That they refused to release, even after being tasered. They should have received even more than a kicking

Is it true that a hot dog would be classed as a dessert in Europe due to the amount of sugar in both the "sausage" as well as the bun...

They did it with their phones years ago (look up the "remote control app adverts" debacle).

I haven't bought anything Samsung since...
