Anyone missing the passing of NCP. The founders sold it a few years back to overseas investors I hadnt realised they never owned most of the sites they operated from. Rents thus fell due on Wednesday and many were not paid with closures of sites occuring by Saturday. Some that make money are staying...

If you have the time - this is worth a look. I watched this, featuring David Davies MP last night - in a packed house ( just seven members out of six hundred and fifty) present. Cause for concern at least I'd say. Can there be a second retrial? I'd say it's the least that should happen. https://you...

I note recently Trump was mentioning the US forces sending the Iranian navy to the bottom of the seas , he did say could they not be captured and used. This was the original aim of British Warships , which Nelson tended to move futher away from with fire ships and firing on ships to turn them to mat...

Just as soon as the equninox passes and we are supposed to be in spring the weather decides otherwise , more atlantic wind and rain due over much bits of UK

Packet of 9 Cadbury's Chocolate Twirl Bars - not - £3.20 so I didnt but. Its lent and chocolate is supposed to be generally off the menu . I remember when they were about £1.20 for a multi pack

Looks like one of those Home Guard ( not quite them it was another mil try out mob ) weapons for clearing beaches or similar fired by rockers. First seen on British TV i think with William Woollard "Secret War" as home defence thing. Having said that it is more large and seems to have some...

Bring me the head of Diago Garcia

Meningitis spread. Messaging from Govt was it was a disease difficult to catch. The numbers reporting seem to show different. I dont blame the Govt as such but has the department of health been caught out in not working out what to do when incidencies start rising rapidly. Back to general Pharmacy s...

Physio this morning, how can such a small woman have such strong hands. I'll know about it tomorrow but it's getting better :biggrin2: same as short men make quite good weightlifters , shorter muscles can create more pull or push force ( its probably an inverse square rule) For others on Pharmacies...

...the US may hit Iran's Kharg Island "a few more times just for fun". That sums up Trump's attitude to war. There are lots of news reports saying that an amphibious group of the USS Tripoli and 5000 marines is being sent in to sort out the Hormuz problem. But when will they arrive and wh...

Time to fund ground and air source heat pumps

A "proud" sixth-generation weaver has been unveiled as the next High Sheriff of Lancashire. David Collinge is to take over the historical role next month. Born in Nelson and now living in the Ribble Valley, he has spent most of his working life at John Spencer Textiles, his family's weavin...

every time in general I here spokespersons for Iran speak they seem relatively sensible ( aytollah a bit more mad and revengeful maybe he has a point though) spokespersons for US sound like mad men

It's effectively chemical warfare by the US and Israel and will cause lifelong illnesses and early deaths among Iranians and anyone else affected by the wind. The lighter particles, vapours and gases will affect surrounding countries too. we also get wind from the south , late feb had that arabian ...

I believe it started in a vape shop, full of lithium batteries. Here's some more info on the venture. The ferret Unlikely to carry any insurance I'd say - for fire or third party consequences. PS Reports that the Fire Brigade are still 'playing on the ruins' nearly two days after the start of the f...

It looks like the US military have sunk to the same depths as the Israeli military... `US missile hit military base near Iran school, video analysis shows' LINK A US Tomahawk missile hit a military base near a primary school in southern Iran where Iranian authorities said 168 people, including arou...

So many houses living "off grid" with heating oil. it has always been a balancing trick of when to order fuel. Even in London some of my workplaces were heated with oil rather than gas and working price forward contracts was fun with the Total distributer. Otley has a distributor (Tate) I ...

I believe it started in a vape shop, full of lithium batteries. more that there were a lot being charged on traling cords I assume USB so either charger to battery not matched or a failed wire joint (they use small wires and I have had a few sparkings and fires on USB and similar "elbows"...

IF Images were on a separate sub domain (I cannot remember how they were done) likewise LTP, there may be wayback links avalible for them but I think MOST images have been restored from the offline sources they originated from so that is less of an issue

I hear France are sending a small navy toward the Gulf. France has always managed to be independent and not tied to US policy as such. It also runs a number of overseas territories which give it a reason to have a fairly robust Navy along with that long Atlantic and Med coastlines. But Ukraine has s...

One is also near at mums the likes of Sandown Park - where the grandstand has a decent antiques fair once a week (As does Brighton Racecourse - another breezy location atop the south downs with the channel a few hundred yards away ) and Kempton Park. Doncaster Racecourse opposite Doncaster Corporati...

I dont know as such if I even like the sport, maybe it is the hype over the years of the media of mainly TV and Newspapers - the correspondences for each crossing over to write in advance and in review for each the same day. I guess the Racing Post offices were nearish to where mum lived , the Publi...

See THIS BBC report on new methods of determining levels of stress..... When I was asked to give an impromptu five-minute speech and then to count backwards in intervals of 17 - all in front of a panel of three strangers - the acute stress was written on my face. That is because psychologists from ...

isnt the stuff referred to known as "dettol" (do generic formulations differ?) does anyone gargle with Dettol ? I am told Listerine is a floor cleaner
