Katie's launderette business took off with a bang
A very useful service, especially for the single man
He can strip off and put his togs inside a big machine

Good morning GM, you are up early. Just one more tale in the Asda Saga series to come...but there is
A Ripping Yarn in production in order to celebrate the anniversary of Operation Overlord next month.
Play your cards right and there might be a part in it for you 😜

Quote from: klondike on Today at 11:05:42 AMAh the battle with the checkout operator - familiar as were the earlier observations. I was in Lidl today which lived up to your standards entirely starting in the car park with some dawk wandering across the main entrance roadway not looking with a phone up to their ears. It went downhill from there.

Lidl, is that a posh Aldi? I believe there is one local but I am not allowed there, apparently they sell plants too, SWMBO says I have too many.

Quote from: ansu on Today at 10:13:29 AMthere are only two parties

There are only two that ever get enough votes to form a government. That's because for each seat whoever gets the most votes becomes the representative and the losing votes count for nothing. Smaller parties like the Liberal Democrats tend to put most of their effort in Parliamentary elections into a restricted number of places so a modest share of the national vote can still reward them with a number of seats while those with a broader geographic reach may get more votes but no seats.

Might be a filter issue unless you have a filtered socket with a phone and router socket which most probably will have by now. More likely to be a line problem though unless you have made any changes phone wise imo.

If you have a phone while the router is connected listen on it for crackling or any other noise such as a hissing sound. Press the zero to get rid of the dial tone. If you hear that call and complain about it rather than the internet. If the internet connection keeps failing call them again and keep calling. They'll probably have a script of you'll need to go through before they'll send anbody out.

Nothing you do on the internet should cause the connection to fail.

Ah the battle with the checkout operator - familiar as were the earlier observations. I was in Lidl today which lived up to your standards entirely starting in the car park with some dawk wandering across the main entrance roadway not looking with a phone up to their ears. It went downhill from there.

Quite interesting. I have never thought that voting could be such a problem for you. At school our English teacher told us that elections in the UK are no problem, as there are only two parties contrary to us. 

Had a BT engineer call two or three weeks ago and claimed that he had fixed my connection problems - but they are back. For several days now, every time I come on here my connection fails, usually whilst I am the site, but on two occasions the moment that I leave it and attempt to go to another site. I have only managed to complete Wordle twice in the last 10 days (they were the days when my connection failed after I left here. I have taken to looking at my other sites - news, on-line banking, weather, etc., before coming here, and so far none of them have caused any problem. I think that I will just give up on Wordle but will continue to try and come on here and see if that helps.

It's easier than that.  Just don't vote for them.

Poor Brian.. If he is a 'crackpot' that is very sad
Just imagine if he was your dad
Beside his tall tales
Even Sunak pales
Maybe he's just a Jack the lad



Sciatico's a piece of work
He puts folks down with a nasty smirk
He just seems to hate the Brits
He reckons we're a load of shits
But when said and done he's just a berk
