  1. I can't bring myself to vote. There's no aye to choose.
  2. Petrol prices are making a welcome dip. 134.9p yesterday.
  3. Steve Halliwell who I had never heard of until now. Emmerdale actor Steve Halliwell, who played Zak Dingle, has died, his family says | Ents & Arts News | Sky News Good luck with the puns on this one.
  4. She's not the only c**t. There are loads of them. I've stopped reading that bit of private Eye because I need to watch my blood pressure.
  5. We should be questioning what both governments are doing with our tax. Why are we paying the highest tax burden in 70 years for worse and worse services? Somebody is making a killing here and I don't believe it's the folk at the bottom of the pile. I believe there's a hell of a lot of corruption and waste due to incompetence eating away at the money which should be spent on services. The PPE scandal is just the most high profile case just now.
  6. I'd rather just have a general election to be honest. Get rid of all the c***s in one go. I think the SNP vote would be decimated as well though. And they've got (mostly) only themselves to blame for it.
  7. Norwegian for dust sounds like stoor. (støv) And a vacuum cleaner sounds like stoor sucker. Støvsuger
  8. Premium bonds are a bit dull. That's why I've got a fair few for my daughter but none myself. You're never unlikely to lose your money but you'll not get much in prize money. She's won about 2.6% since I bought them in May. Crypto seems far more fun but not something I'd stake any money that I'm not prepared to lose if it all goes tits up.
  9. I'm from Fife (originally) but I'm not Fay Fife. This is Fay Fife. Also, the word ken is used in the North of England, ken. D'ye ken John Peel (song) - Wikipedia My Mum and Dad used to love The Spinners. Obviously nothing to do with 'that' John Peel. And I have to include the obligatory HMHB reference, ken.
  10. UK Prime Minister Sunak's favourability hits all-time low - YouGov | Reuters You do wonder why he is in the job. Is the money he can (allegedly) funnel to his wife really worth it?
  11. Probably because you don't want a war criminal (for instance) representing your country.
  12. Do you have the facts to back up your first statement? And don't just count every tourist as a direct benefit of having a royal family. Paris has more tourists than London for a start. Italy is another republic with a thriving tourism industry. And the ridiculous comparison with an elected head of state always cites the worst possible person being voted in. Even then we'd be able to get rid of them at the next election. We have no democratic method of getting rid of the monarchy.
  13. I couldn't guarantee it but I doubt it. Edit: Not sure they followed me. I'm not a pied piper for Tories.
  14. Unlike Glasgow where most folk have a smile carved on their face.
  15. Scottish education performance falling, says study - BBC News I've no argument that our PISA ratings are shit and should be better. But I noticed a wee 'error' in the BBC report. The graph doesn't seem to have the same figures as the text. In the graph it shows the average at 480, well above Scotland's score. In the text, it's 472, which is much closer. How many folk will just look at the graph?
  16. I noticed BTC was over $42k this morning and thought this thread would be busier again. Good luck everyone. Hope you enjoy your gambling responsibly.
  17. If it wasn't for those pesky 2 goals they scored....... ......it would have been 0-0. Free drink in hospitality didn't numb the pain.
