General Discussion / Re: Notting hill Carnival

I used to live in the Carribean where " crop over ' is the big carnival thing .
Once the celebration after the harvest was over .
However it has degenerated into horrendous  noise and obscene sexual twerking ' which has upset many of the local people who remember it differently .

She thought how handsome he seemed
And gazed up at him and beamed
Will this story end well?

Whatever the outcome you can be sure nobody will be disciplined in any way.

It's just possible that  "lessons will be learned" but even that is unlikely imo.

Maybe it was the cleaners? I thought they all worked from home these days.

Perhaps they can beat last years dismal performance. A dozen or two maybe.

I saw a photo of Home Office staff posing on the stairs, I assume at the HO.  There were only 2 or 3 white faces amongst the roughly 20 odd staff.  The Home Office is the problem.

Grotty grey old day. Only drizzling. Been at it ages for the grand total of 0.2mm since midnight. Forecast suggests even that will be stopping soon.

Just as an aside today is the first day properly authorised plug in solar kits are supposed to be available in the shops. Not exactly a blazing start. The authorised kits are crippled anyway as batteries are not included and they are the game changers as they can let you run most of your house on stored off peak power if you are on the right tariff. As it is the panels will produce their power (well they won't  produce much at all today) when most are out at work and taper off to bugger all when they come home. Amazon were supposed to be selling them but there are no approved kits for sale on there that I could see. Plenty of unapproved ones of course as they've had those for ages.

Check that doctor carefully Alex - make sure it's not a cardboard cut out with a paracetamol dispenser.
