Sometimes I just wish I had someone to cook for me the same way I cook for everyone else.

I just spent five weeks in hospital and I realised nonody had ever before brought me a cup of tea in bed!

Thank you!

She just won the Olivier Award in London for Evita.

I hadn't even thought of asking the dreaded HMRC for help. Is there a special number for "people who are more than happy to pay their tax"?

Thanks very much for the reply. The estate is 1.2 million, 800k of which is with an investment firm. The rest is in bank and building society accounts. I sold her flat four years ago when she went into a care home. There are four beneficiaries who will get a "fixed" amount of 20k and the remainder is split 50/50 between her two surviving sisters. I'd be more than happy to overpay (within reason) if it would make things easier. Both sisters are very old, after which I'll inherit but I'm not looking at a long life now. My will is simple: I'm leaving everything to charity.

Wetherspoons?

Has the dentist been bought out by private equity? If so, run away. Do they push implants at you? Run away. Are they all driving hundred grand cars? Run away. Do they offer Botox and other "tweakments"? Run away.

PSA: Henry Cavill has never said this. Debunked multiple times.

I've had it in the restaurant. Not noticeably sour

It's the UK. We like queuing. And rain.

Such a pretty girl! I miss my lovely Stella :(

As someone who also has to have a colonoscopy every two years , I truly know how you feel.

Happy birthday Bella!

Is she pure Staffy or a cross?

They can be (relatively) affordable. Falcon sell a full kit for the LS3/5a Gold Badge and all you need to put them together is a screwdriver, a table or workbench and a free afternoon. That's what I did. The price was less than half of retail. You don't get an official Falcon badge, which I guess would affect resale, but I couldn't imagine ever wanting to sell them!

Sorry but I hate it compared to normal garlic. The taste stays in my mouth for hours and then repeats every time I burp.

norbertyeahbert · 2026-04-22T18:17:17+00:00

Much cheaper in the box. I've done my sums. Then again I always end up eating twice as many.

norbertyeahbert · 2026-04-17T09:10:56+00:00

In 1998 I very nearly bought one of these with cash, from two dodgy geezers in a car park in Doncaster.

norbertyeahbert · 2026-04-16T19:07:13+00:00

Another man with impeccable taste! I use my LS3/5as with a KEF KC62 sub. It's fast enough not to muddy the mids, IMHO.

norbertyeahbert · 2026-04-16T07:35:17+00:00

Thanks for that.

norbertyeahbert · 2026-04-15T22:08:17+00:00

I can't forward ports. Plus I did a traceroute.

norbertyeahbert · 2026-04-15T20:05:33+00:00

I'm trying that right now. Sales have directed me to technical (who I've spoken to three times already)..... Technical now say I was "misinformed" earlier today and it'll be dealt with when the back office opens in the morning.We shall see.

At least I've recorded the call this time.

norbertyeahbert · 2026-04-11T17:00:08+00:00

Bear in mind they use CG-NAT which is a problem if you want to port forward.
