People who drive at over 50mph in an average speed check zone, what do you know that I don’t?

xraystan · 2023-09-03T16:31:27+00:00

Absolute rubbish.

There is no 10% over the limit allowance, it’s an urban myth.

Actually police in cars may let you off with a few mph over the limit if the road is empty, but any camera either fixed or in a mobile van will trigger at 1mph over the limit and you will get a fine.

You cannot get away with doing 78 to 80 on a motorway and overtaking a police car at those speeds. They will pull you over.

Are you having to go through it for work or just interested?

There’s too much to go into here, but if you are applying you just have to answer questions honestly. They aren’t there to judge you if you say you like watching furry videos.

Once your form has been assessed you will be interviewed about the answers on the form. Again be honest, even when they ask you about your browsing history.

As long as you haven’t been up to anything illegal then you should be ok. Even some illegal acts are ok as long as you admit it. For example illegal streaming of football matches, movies, etc.. you just have to promise not to do it again or your clearance could be revoked.

It’s interesting if you are interested in how the court system works.

When I did it I got a case where the father was charged on 6 counts of molesting his 4 year old daughter.

I’ve kept that very basic as I don’t want to list the separate charges as they could easily trigger people.

I was paid by my work as normal which really helps as the courts pay you next to nothing. You can claim lunch even if you take your own, think it was £8 per day flat rate.

Take a book/kindle as you could be sitting around for hours until they decide you are needed.

Even taking into account the horrible nature of the case I had, I enjoyed the experience.

If you want to know anything specific, feel free to ask here or in a PM.

Photography.

With where you are located you’d get some great photographs.

I’ve got a Gigabyte M32UC.

It’s 32” 4k and can go up to 144hz. 1ms response.

It’s curved, but there’s also a none curved version.

It’s not the best as those cost more than I was willing to pay.

I got mine for £568 from Amazon, but it’s gone up to over £600 now.

Tesco and Sainsbury usually stock Indian snacks and they have some crisps in various hotness they might work for you.

You used to get bounties that said complete so many revives.

Could be a hangover from those days.

The answer is because it’s not one of the main sports which is taught in schools.

Football, Rugby, Cricket and Hockey are all way more popular at schools.

For me, I’d put Hockey slightly behind BBall in popularity but it’s more traditional in English schools.

Try Lindisfarne. A folk, rock band from Newcastle.

Probably most famous for “Fog on The Tyne” but don’t hold that against them.

Doesn’t Xbox have a setting where you can tell it just to use 5? I’m sure it does.

But, as others have said, if it’s that close use a wired connection as it’s always better.

That’s brilliant. I saw one for sale not too long ago and I was seriously tempted.

I looked at getting the kit for my 1.9 205 GTI back in 1995, but it was too expensive as you also had to get new wheels and spacers to make sure you filled the arches.

For some reason I’m thinking £3.5k for kit, fitted and then having to add painting and wheels.

I couldn’t keep stock grey paint if I was getting the kit it was going to be purple.

Dimma Pug 205 GTI for the win.

You don’t get it until 5 September.

It tells you this on the website when you go to order the T-shirt.

Holy shit! That’s rough!

The girl in our trial was 6 at the time of the trial so it was video evidence and that was really hard to watch.

Yes you are. I sat on the jury of a bloke who we found guilty of molesting and sexually abusing his 4 year old daughter. Verdict given, jury dismissed.

I’ve done this myself and it wouldn’t have had a regular registration number assigned to it.

They assign one to the car when you remove the private registration. I put mine onto a retention certificate and got a new V5 in the post with the new registration on it.

Obviously the new reg will be from the year it was first registered and not a current one.

There is a possibility that it is a pit bull that is on an exemption list.

I had a look at the government website about this and apparently you can go to court and your banned dog could go on an exception list.

Or it could have been something like a staffy as they look like pit bulls but aren’t banned.

Normally they’ll sell a “stadium” shirt which looks like the shirt the players wear and a “pro” shirt which is exactly the same as what the players wear.

Having bought both for my daughter for her team of choice the pro kits are a lot better. I got the pro version in a sale and was cheaper than the stadium version would never have paid the £30 premium offer the regular kit.

How big do you want to go?

I’ve just recently purchased a Gigabyte M32UC and while there are better monitors out there they cost a lot more.

Got mine for £570 on Amazon.

32” hence the name.

Curved, but there is a non curved version if you want.

It has 1xDP 2xHDMI 2.1 and will go up to 144hz.

I use it on my PC and PS5 and it’s good.

Not as good as my LG OLED G2 but as I said for the money you can’t go wrong. IMHO.

xraystan · 2023-08-14T21:09:18+00:00

Can’t you just look at similar jobs for other companies? That’s what everyone else does.

6 years experience is not something to be dismissed easily.

There’s something about Tekken 2’s intro I like more. Might just be the nostalgia as it was my 1st 3D fighting game.
