Did you hear about the explosion in the French cheese factory?

All that was left was da brie

I've not had to do the test, but my wife did, so I learnt it along with her.

I would have been very close to passing without study, but a lot of the random figures I didn't have memorised (e.g. I know there to be about 650 MPs, but exactly how many is in the test, and not my head)

Women's Lambswool Crew Neck - Rose Pink

I use them a lot for Men's stuff, which I have found to be good quality and fairly priced albeit not cheap

It's very much a "can you internalise and regurgitate the study book sort of exam". It tests at best whether you can be bothered studying. It doesn't test much that is pertinent to life in the UK, and as @jamesdaustin.bsky.social says, much is debatable.

The weird thing being they were also like 5 bands. So you could colour the sound, which was generally the opposite of what the rest of the system was trying to do, but you couldn't for example match the system to the room or any of things they do in live sound.

Where do they stand on internal convention centres?

Only we have one in Birmingham and I used to be there alot in my lighting tech days, now go as a deligate instead

Fortunately it seems he is an unpopular NAZI at least

It's true of course

Famed for his ~~midas~~ merdeas touch

I'm going to be depressed by how few it wasn't aren't I?
I reckon we hit double figures though....15?

The thing is, I have a frame that was intended to be a mountain bike which is currently masquerading as a utility bike. It does at least have mudguards though (and a followme so I can take my daughter to school)

This is why I really *must* get a chain guard: I'm limited to cycling with trousers that can get at least a little grubby at the minute. Dark trousers are mostly ok, but I worry about expensive suit trousers.

Sorry to hear that

Having read this, it makes really solid, sensible, easily implement-able suggestions, that would upset only the most determinedly cantankerous.

I assume therefor I'll die of old age before they come to pass

But is this an act of resistance against a former colonial power, famed for it's love of tea, or unintentional?

Mogg is particularly annoying in the UK as he is some sort of weird victorian throw back of a politian who was very involved in brexit.

... And it turns out helped by Steve bannon, so even Americans can know he's a wrongun

Oooh
Total Car production?
It feels in the UK as if China is producing a lot of cars at the minute

That and practicality has changed: fuel and time to cook things for a long time is no longer so cheap. People can now afford the parts of the cow they considered high status, so they no longer need to eat so much suet.

Which is a shame, because steak and kidney pudding is awesome

....so this is how I learn I can't vote for my local labour candidate in 2029.

I never much agreed with Steve McCabe either, the problem is it's (or was) a safe labour seat, so it was given to Al.

I can't imagine driving with the random lag associated with a 5g connection is particularly easy or safe.
It's not like London has exactly flawless 5G coverage either.

Yeah, if anything the weakness here is Glasman being against something would make me wonder if perhaps I'd miss-understood and actually it was a good idea after all.

You are right of course, but also the word grindcore is already taken: It's a heavy metal sub-genre that I never really got into, of which napalm death are surely the most famous example.

Children.
Children are why I'm up at the crack of dawn

Terry Pratchett describes a character as (approximately, from memory) "Feeling the discomfort of an educated man faced with someone much smarter than him who can't read"

Intelligence is distributed more equally than education.

Absolutely: seeing a different view point is valuable, a tirade of ill thought out hate has no value no matter who is spewing it

... I'm too young, but the inability of people to call things by their new name means I get it anyway

Well, never forget if he dies and doesn't rule as a semi-animated corpse (has that happened already?) then we get JD Vance, which isn't necessarily better.

The thing is, unlike others who've made millions, I'm not even slightly tempted to copy that approach. It's not a question of whether I could (though I probably couldn't), but rather whether it would be worth it. It simply wouldn't be worth being rich if *you also had to be farage*

He's right, it is good

(I don't believe you)
