There's an Australian company advertising bamboo underpants, with lycra panels, to stop inner thigh chafing on a few of the satellite channels. I've seen it on Quest and Dmax which are part of the Discovery Network.

Just dropped my car off at the garage, the walk back home was a bit wet. As you say, no wind yet. Sounds like the motorcyclist, who collided with a wagon, on the road to Bracewell this morning got off reasonably lightly. Colne and West Craven police reported no serious injuries and the road has been...

Rossendales and Welsh slate could be delivered by rail and with blue slate particularly, the old stone slabs became redundant. That;'s why you cab date houses in Barlick by their slates, stone was pre-1850 and blue slate after. I must presume the kitchen, on my old Park Street house, was using up t...

You were in full oratic flow, I thought it captured you quite well too

Kev, as Peter says, since it became clear to oppressed people that non violent protest was ineffective. I don't condone it but it's understandable when you get a very angry protest. The same thing has happened here in recent times. Escalation of violence on both sides occurs when legitimate grievan...

Me too, that algorithm

When did setting fire to vehicles, armed robbery and discharging firearms become a 'protest'?

Thank you, the software makes it a lot easier

Are the decreased hospital admissions, and reported deaths, related to Covid-19 a result of restrictions put in place or, has something else changed?

When I clear the history and cache memory which I do from time to time to de-clutter, I have to log into sites again. I don't understand it, but assume that clearing all cookies removes the 'keep me signed in' facility. Not to do with passwords.

'Keep me signed in' uses a cached password...

Cheers Ian, offspring was pleased with it. Hopefully his mother-in-law likes it

A bit of scanning and Photoshop work today after a request from son no1.
Kept me out of mischief for a couple of hours

Depends how secure the device is you're saving them on or, how secure your Google account is.

Having grown up in Blackburn I look at those distinctions between the areas that are `OK' and those that are `restricted' and wonder how folk there will know which they belong to. I didn't live in any of those areas but I was in Blackburn! The division seems to be roughly between north and south bu...

I'm with Wendy on that?

Dark and a little inclement...

For those that haven't and would like to, here's where you can get tested. You don't need to have symptoms, everyone in Pendle is being encouraged to have one. https://www.pendle.gov.uk/coronavirus?fbclid=IwAR17j5q7DkPZK-gGPRAjgdRnvZWJEEZFfw9JIOsDDTV81he79UM_jag6OAU Alternatively you can order a hom...

Put me right if I am wrong but my reading of what Susan sent me is that Barlick is not affected by the new measures. You are correct in your presumption. There is a lot of confusion around the 'new' restrictions, as well as the existing, from both residents and local councillors and probably the go...

That'll do for me

You can't say that sensible people are exempt from following the rules, it has to apply across the board. :smile: That's what I meant by being sensible :-) sadly there are some who are not. I've stopped following the Barnoldswick Talk page because of the conspiracy theorists and 'deniers' (I think ...

Thanks Kev. Does this mean that I shouldn't meet up with a friend for a walk or sit at a table outside a cafe for a coffee? All socially distanced of course. Haven't Sweden got away with following the path of herd immunity? I have no idea Wendy :laugh5: I'm just carrying on being sensible. Keeping ...

Looking at the .gov website, it looks like any social gatherings are now not allowed in the areas with further restrictions, it's all very confusing, I think things would be a lot easier if local councils issued a postcode specific instruction. Despite dedicated local efforts, evidence of rising rat...
