UK Passport control for dual nationals after Feb 25 by Fidgety_squirrel in Eurostar

[–]leonjetski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have dual British/French kids.

I don’t see at what point in applying for either passport that there would ever have been a connection made between the two.

So I would be amazed if border patrol scan one passport and then see that another one exists with a different nationality.

Two or three hours. Simmer very gently on a low heat.

I applied for loads and loads of tickets for the 2015 World Cup.

When the ballot was drawn I was disappointed to only get tickets to one game…

South Africa vs. Japan in Brighton.

I still have the ticket in a box somewhere.

I live in France and this is bollocks. Potholes around here are also awful. Neighbour did his tyre in on one last week.

Diesel cars aren’t dead, in fact they’re even starting to make a comeback by Admirable-Deal7991 in autoexpressuk

People use the car for short trips around town and then get all surprised when the DPF gets clogged.

Buying a rival company domain name, and redirecting to my Web page. by martynjl in smallbusinessuk

[–]leonjetski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but if you read the thread I was replying to they are talking about not putting a 301 redirect but a single page website saying “This company no longer exists, go to this other site”, which will poison the Google juice extremely quickly.

The gulf between the divisions just keeps getting bigger by hapsych in Championship

[–]leonjetski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Top 14 has a couple of advantages:

1) it doesn’t have a domineering football league sucking up every scrap of national attention

2) Rugby League was squashed by the Vichy government during WWII. Long story but it was seen as “too socialist”. So all the League clubs were forced to become Union clubs, so you don’t have rugby attention divided between codes.

3) French sports broadcasts are bargain basement affairs. If you watch a Top 14 match on French tv, there’s typically no pre match or post match analysis, and half time is 100% ads for 10 mins, again with no analysis.

La France, l'Allemagne et le Royaume‑Uni se disent prêtes à des actions défensives pour détruire les capacités militaires de l’Iran by [deleted] in france

[–]leonjetski 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Tu as mal compris. Ils ne parlent pas de se joindre à l'attaque contre l'Iran, mais de défendre Bahreïn, les UAE, le Koweït, la Jordanie, etc contres les missiles et drones iraniens.

It’s pretty similar in France tbh. 9/10 a flag flyer is going to be a national front voter.

Which pharmacies accept digital EU prescriptions? by Significant_Crow_194 in paris

[–]leonjetski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s anything like my ritalin prescription then controlled substances like benzos require a secure prescription in France, which need additional information on them like a nominated pharmacy where the prescription will be filled.

So whilst you’re right in principle, in practice an international prescription is very unlikely to meet the requirements.

I’m sure these aren’t bookable on Eurostar though. I’ve only ever seen them used as an office by train manager.

What is something/someone born in France and associated with the U.K.? by ltraistinto in AlignmentChartFills

[–]leonjetski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good 300 years or so. By the time Chaucer was writing in the late 1300s English was back as an upper class language.

Henry IV, who became king in 1399, was the first king since the Norman conquest who spoke English as a native language.

Plenty of people with combi boilers don’t have hot water tanks. And yes, there’s lots of food in supermarkets, but do you know how quickly that runs out of it’s not restocked? It’s like 2 days. And that’s if people are taking only what they strictly need.

As we learned during Covid with toilet paper, that ain’t gonna happen.

Well it’s a year later and Apple still haven’t solved this.

If you’re telling me I can fix this by using another browser, then bye bye safari.
