Flecc, on this topic if no other, you are simply wrong...

Of course there were ... He got fired!. . But going back a little .. the things he was got for were the little things and as you say inconsequential in the great scheme of things,. But they all pointed to the mans character. Now the NIP is not a little thing. And his cavalier attitude to that...

An uncle of mine did get shingles on the side of the face and into the optic nerve ... It blinded him permanently on that eye for the remainder of his life.

That you should be so lucky!

..flecc.. he's yanking your chain...

Well ... Weather wise we had about 3 hours of sunshine yesterday , and it was pleasant. Otherwise it was constant cloud cover . In fact on Saturday we had a rolling mist in from Sea , with very low visibility!.

While I try not to engage in British Politicians personality bashing, My current hope is that Liz Truss gets the gig. She will single mindedly push through the NIP negation Bill, which will utter scupper any chances of a reconciliation of the DUP with any NI Party and totally alienate the EU...

My suspicion is that Hunt has that in his back pocket, but dare not mention its name. You cannot effect change without being elected, and this is a very elite electorate. The only advantage he has going for himself is that he is not tarred with the Boris brush.

So a 19 year old wealthy lad does not have a great idea of how the world works?. Thats news?. Now 20 years ago the point he was making was someone with his skin colour could go far. Paki bashing was a spectator sport. 20 years ago , woman's football was a joke .. eg" Bend it like Beckham", ...

I take it that you are referring to those undertaking training in the UK. Well I would say the answer is no, and nor do they have passports. They are on active service with their regiment and will have been issued travel passes if necessary. But most likely they were picked up by Hercules...

Generally when political and or real obituaries are written, there are some redeeming qualities found .. well Fintan O'Toole ,writing in the Guardian has broken with that tradition.

I hear you, but I think the time is not yet right. The pain of Brexit needs to become more acute ,before the boil is lanced. At this stage it might be politically better if one of the most fervent ideological Brexiteers became PM, and repudiated the NIP. .... Then the UK would see what...

Woosh..what is the car insurance situation with an Ami in France?. . If having one didn't have a large annual cost, it might suit me.

That's all to the good then .. this is an ebike forum. The problem with e cars at present is the cost and availability of lithium. Other chemistries are being seriously explored, and will compete. There is no magic bullet and a single solution, just a selection of various ones

Hi Fordulike. I am now retired 8 years, but for the 6 years before that I commuted daily .. The distance was about 4 miles each way and I used an electric bike for those years. And that was all weather. Now you haven't indicated where you are and that matters . If your commute is somewhere...

Obviously I would wish the UK back inside the EU, but I think Starmer is making the only pragmatic play possible . The Johnson /Truss NI Protocols Bill is going to be a shambles. At some stage people like the CBI are going to say so,Of course the Tories don't listen to any informed voices in...

Speaking from Ireland here ,Well for the last few purchases I have made on line, I have moved from Amazon UK to Amazon Germany. The costs are often significantly lower and the delivery very rapid. Amazon UK has a very streamlined service, but can no longer compare price wise ,as they include...

The only plausible explanation is that the NHS recognises you are extremely young at heart for your age....

Not obvious to you apparently!. Now your definition of safe and effective is also skew... At the time of writing that specification the KNOWN MORTALITY rate from COVID19 was off the order of 5% ... . And before you go off on a tangent go back to the then published information .. of which the...

I have had a Motus Unisex.. The only problem I had which was serious was the carrier loosened and jerked back, breaking the leads to the battery pack . It meant a very slow 5 mile cycle without power. Rewiring it was an absolute mare... The amount of spare space and cable was crucifying...
