I've just been outside and cleaned two windows, well it's a start :smiley:  I'll have to wait until the sun moves before doing the others.

Not that I'd want to anyway.    A small phone screen wouldn't be the same as a t.v. screen.

Same here ...I haven't a clue what they mean Mups ... but then I'm still only becoming proficient with a simple call & text phone.

Well, as long as there are enough curtain twitchers  to keep an eye on them, then that's as safe as safe can be, and the police can get back to more important duties such as providing a protective escort for more illegal immigrants, or arresting those who are trying to carry out the first role of any government of keeping the country safe.

There are ways to connect your TV to your phone and watch things as per usual on the big screen.

My father died in his late 50s, I was 17.  Never knew him as an adult really.  He'd have been appalled at the freeloading and far left attitudes in prioritising minorities.  A staunch conservative all his life who instilled a work ethic in me,  and a belief on taking personal responsibility for our circumstances for as long as we can.

Quote from: klondike on Today at 08:46:25 AMLooks like it was more by chance they were discovered than being outsmarted by counterterrorism. I saw a report saying this was initially lead by a local police force on the tipoff of a local farmer.

Does anyone believe this ? 
Are counter terrorism people going to show their hand or are so inept they rely on locals to report anything suspicion .
What next Dads Army ?

Quote from: Dextrous63 on Today at 02:59:19 PMThe idea is that if you have an internet connection, you have to pay towards the BBC irrespective of whether you ever watch it on your tv or computer.

I wonder how they will deal with those who have unlimited data on their mobiles and use them as a hotspot to watch TV.
  I sometimes use this by taking a spare Firestick and connect to my Amazon account via my phone.

Hey,  guess what . . .  I was looking on the internet for any local window cleaners this morning,  and I found the bugger who never showed up.   He had many excellent references from his customers  (not that I normally take much notice of references).

In a moment of madness,  I decided to ring him.
I reminded him of my request back in June and told him I was still waiting.
He was extremely apologetic and charming,   and promised he would be here on Friday p.m.
I said if he didn't show up,   I might have to strangle him.
He laughed, and promised he would be here.
He only lives 5 doors away,  so could be handy if he's ok.  

(Forgot to say,  he is very handsome too).    :grin:
