Think that Jeff must have had a bet with the Tory party chair as to could bugger things up more effectively and he's on a good bonus if he wins. Reckon that they are neck and neck at the moment & probably going to be a photo finish.

It matters little apart from the serious damage it does to the rest of the country Anyone with any intelligence of a greater amount than their ego will look at this and decide 'no way' am I going for this now. There will be a GE at some point (needs to be now really) & at that point they are...

My MP Simon Hoare would probably survive got 60% of the vote in 2019. Labour have no chance (though might save their deposit next time) - Lib Dems only creditable opposition, but even they would need a record swing to take it. Met him once - decent & fairly sane individual. Has form for voting...

Beale wold be a 'left field' appaoinment, but from what has been posted seems well respected & I don't consider we have a load of PL diva's in the squad. We are not going to get a top previously succesful manager with a good track record so not sure that this is any worse than a no name failed...

Covid booster & flu jab on Sat morning Not before time as Covid is rampaging through the town - last count I did of bowls club members who have got it in the last few days is 20

I have been fortunate in my working life & even though retired now I am finacially in a good place even with the current economic conditions - already support various causes (mostly locally) & volunteer at 3 local charties or associations for no recompense apart from reimbursment of expenses as...

Nuno coming back would be a big mistake for both us & him - love the man & we had a number of amazing years but it can't be replicated. Other names mentioned on the whole don't elicit any sense of expectation - would almost welcome a young manager who had had some sucess in Lg 1 or 2 and give...

Fully understand your position Vis - we all sometimes find that something has to stop for us to have a life. I can't help with any tech stuff - the only computers around in my early life were probably built by Ada Lovelace or Alan Turing! Happy to help out financially if that is needed or...

I know how you feel LJ - had my last game 2 weeks ago. Can play indoors on a carpet full green or shortmat, but neither really interests me enough. Must be difficult not having a secure home - I am fortunate as the club owns the land & buildings we operate at so no one can disturb us or throw...

Never really been into rap music, but his main hit 'Gansta's Paradise' will always be remembered. At my wife's 40th birthday party in an upstairs function room at the local pub (approx 90 in attendance) my 16 yr old son persuaded his 9 yr old brother to ask the DJ for that as a request on the...

No it's the actual meters leaking from the joints in its construction - clearly substandard Still its Wessex Water staff doing it and you have to hope they know what they are doing.

Didn't have a choice when I moved in & they just installed one (as a single occupier I wanted it anyway so no issue). Not perfect as the original started leaking in April - got replaced. August started leaking again & got changed. That was 2 weeks ago & the replacements replacement is...

Already had cavity wall & increased loft insulation done a few years ago under a Gov't grant scheme plus LED lighting everywhere. Not much else I can do short of removing all the fixed flooring & insulating the solid concrete slab floor. Solar panels aren't cost effective (I have looked into it)...

I am more fortunate than many, but don't have unlimited funds - more concerned about my youngest son who runs his own business (& there is no cap there). Last time I saw him he told me what he was having to pay for his energy use compared to last year & it was eye watering - can't load it all...

Have one at the back of the lower quadrant - really shouldn't have bothered using one of my 6 priority windows as a member + as clearly can still get in now!

At least it's resolved. Used to live opposite the school my kids went to - going out at the start time one morning just pulled away when I saw someone pull into my drive then drag a child out the back of the car & run across the road. I promptly backed up, blocked the drive & went inside. 10...

Coming up for this - driving as wasn't wanting a 4 hr train journey (not that half of them are running anyway!) so will have at least aircon for that. Only problem is having to get out of the car when you stop :(.

27c indoors at the moment - bedrooms at the front are a bit cooler as curtains closed all day (& ground floor as its a bungalow). No idea what it is outside as went out at 8am to do what I needed to, but suspect its 35 or 36c. Just glad that we postponed the bowls matches from Sunday to...

Many of us have had that - not sure what it gets me over just buying a standard membership (though I have taken it as it costs no more than that). More annoying is that they nicked £36 of ticket cash off me as I missed the e mails advising me of the deadline (which was the last day I could have...

Any signing in an position we needed to bolster is good - only seen him once for Burnley, but seems to come with a decent rep so good to see him here. Still need a midfielder, preferably one who has a more attack mind & principally a striker. Fabio has, I think, been punted out on loan (been...
