If this is true, we need to picket Westminster to have our passports revoked out of shame.
Isn't Spain a predominantly Catholic nation? Should be up them to shut this nonsense down. Get the riot police and dogs in about them.

ChatGPT keeps asking if I'm a bot today. The fucking nerve.
In case anyone's wondering why sites do this, considering how easy it would be for a bot to detect and click the box, apparently the test is how the mouse pointer is moved. Bots currently find it difficult to mimic how cack-handed and slow humans are.

I'm so old I can remember threepenny bits, second class stamps for two and a half pence and "ten pensi feeshel programmes".
In my youth in the 1960s, it was very common to get one penny coins with Queen Victoria on them.

A lot simpler than that. The teleportation machine was made by Boeing.
Boeing can't even make planes that don't fall to bits these days. No way they've made a teleportation machine.

What like? Are you eating now? What you got? Is it good?

5p was the equivalent of a shilling in the 40s. And the 50s and 60s. Right up to decimalisation in 1971.
HTH.

Mate of mine used to be the manager of a paint shop in Liverpool back when the company was sponsoring Liverpool FC. Part of the sponsorship deal was the players could get a pot of paint or two if they were doing any re-decorating. Two Scottish internationals used to turn up seperately every week accompanied by a painter with his van and they would literally fill the van. Full pallets at a time. At first my mate would phone his boss for permission but was told to shut up and not cause a fuss.
You'd think these millionaire players wouldn't worry about money so much but they were absolutely shafting the sponsors.
Am guessing Nicol and Gillespie?

This absolute w**k
The Tortured Poets Department. An anthology of new works that reflect events, opinions and sentiments from a fleeting and fatalistic moment in time - one that was both sensational and sorrowful in equal measure. This period of the author’s life is now over, the chapter closed and boarded up. There is nothing to avenge, no scores to settle once wounds have healed. And upon further reflection, a good number of them turned out to be self-inflicted. This writer is of the firm belief that our tears become holy in the form of ink on a page. Once we have spoken our saddest story, we can be free of it. And then all that’s left behind is the tortured poetry.
To quote Niles Crane: "If you tortured that metaphor any more you'd be before a tribunal in the Hague."
My 12yo daughter, who wasn't previously a massive Swift fan but got caught up in the hype around her Eras tour, listened to 4 songs and her review was "awful". Pwoud.

Jennifer's an early developer. I don't think I stared into the void until I hit my teens.
She's been listening to her Dad's Radiohead albums.

Today a lassie described a bit of equipment in her ward as looking like it was from 1982, because it looked “mega old” I was born in 1982, still see myself as relatively young, but according to that young whippersnapper, anything from that time is ancient and should be chucked on the scrap heap. The way that kids see anyone over 30. As below.
Thanks Jennifer, fecking ray of sunshine that one.

I quite often get colleagues telling what me what to do despite me knowing or just about to do it. The place is full of ex managers from old works so I guess they cant shake it off. I always thought its because I look unsure and quiet. Can get annoying and nearly said something .
Thats annoying. We have a constant issue with people from other teams telling us, or worse, other people what our team does. "But X said you could do this" Aye well X doesn't know what they are talking about.

iTunes must be the biggest piece of shit I've had the mis pleasure of trying to use. And I'm someone who has to use MicroStrategy in a work capacity.
