I feel for Farage. He's been pelted with so many milk shakes and lagers of late, his dry cleaning bill must be astronomical. And if he's no going stateside to grift, it must surely mean even trump doesn't want him. Poor fellow
-
I missed that. Was he saying anything other than what you'd expect from the reform party?
-
Yeah, terribly sad to hear of his passing, but not entirely surprised given his *ahem* lifestyle choices. There's many a dentist that's rubbed their hands at the thought of getting a grip of him. RIP... No chance!

^It's not quite the exclusive they claim... as this was published 3 days ago. Anyway, it's not overly encouraging for the port and hopefully DITT get paid as I'd imagine £1m is quite a large hole in anyone's cashflow.
-
That's not quite how my imagination had it looking. There is plenty of space though! I'll grab my coat.

Were the SIC stopping those wanting to celebrate a coronation from taking the time off to do so? Also, scanning the Shetlink local news feed, there appears to have been several coronation related events... none of which looked to have been that well attended. The point being - I'm not convinced there are was any potential to raise £100K off the back of Charles.

Were that my line of thought, I may wonder about who, now, would be putting the UK at the top of their list. Given that Brexit has done it's obvious (yes, it was obvious it would do real harm) damage, brought to us by the calamity party and our now current home secretary who dreams (her words) of flying everyone not born on these turd filled shores (their votes) off to Rwanda. It's hard to fathom. Not.

You'd need to take it to the local courier that handles UPS stuff. I think (but could be wrong) Streamline do UPS deliveries, so I'd try giving them a bell. They'll surely know who handles UPS if it's no them.

Scottish Independence Referendum 2021
Roachmill replied to Davie P's topic in National & International News
Thanks Colin. You demonstrate why the call for independence exists quite succinctly. -
Scottish Independence Referendum 2021
Roachmill replied to Davie P's topic in National & International News
We could be 8 years clear of the same mess.... yet here we are. That's 8 years of struggling we'll still need to go through from a worse starting position. It's still, even now, a better bet than sticking with where we'll be in another 8 years IMHO. -
Scottish Independence Referendum 2021
Roachmill replied to Davie P's topic in National & International News
The SNP becoming irrelevant in the advent of independence is a bit of a given, surely? A reason to vote yes, no? -
Congrats Bryan! Coming second on your first attempt is pretty darned good
-
You got my vote Bryan. You will, hopefully, get many more... despite not launching your campaign on the "chaining your bike to a lampost is vandalism" ticket. You missed a big vote winner there.

Anyone else having problems here?
Roachmill replied to Frances144's topic in User guides and tech support
It's not just you Frances. It's been happening most days for about a week now. Some kind boffin is fixing it... but it doesn't last for long. -
What's changed between then and now that would make something they said was fit for purpose back then... but not now? Have folks faces gotten smaller are are they just walking further away from the cameras? Whatever comes of it, I'll put a tenner on it somehow involving digging up the flagstones. Even for wireless cameras.

I can think of way too many other reasons why he should get himself in the sea. The depressing thing is he'd just be replaced by one of his mates. He should still pop right off whatever happens.

I still remember the good old days when it was 5G masts that were spreading Covid; the days when we didn't - and still don't - have any 5G masts. At least we're starting to see more becoming known about certain aspects of Covid beginning to be better understood and, more importantly, acknowledged. It's all way over my head (and I read Facebook!) but the effects of the virus when it gets anywhere near the brain look to be providing some backup to Long Covid sufferers and the "loss" of smell and taste appears to have genetic roots which are now being examined. More importantly, it being openly discussed (by the boffins at least) and not swept under the carpet.

We use them for work and have done so for many a year. They've been great on all fronts and bent over backwards to get us connected in a few different locations. There's also been times when their connections have stayed operational when BTs have been down.
-
I would strongly disagree with that; they were voted in to power. It's a bit like handing a set of keys to a well known drunk staggering towards their car and then blaming them when they crash.
-
And it's not like those pushing for Brexit had a good record (I'm being kind here) of delivering on their past promises either; yet they got their way. They remain in power, have made stacks of cash and don't look to be stopping any more of that any time soon. It's all well and good saying if whoever is in charge cock things up they'll get voted out... but that's completely ignoring the reality of who those people are, who they're controlled by and their control of the media with the ability to destroy any and all opposition. But enough folk jumped on the relevant hook that fitted with what they wanted and got them over the line.
-
I'm in a real quandary here reconciling the idea both sides fibbed equally over Brexit. Running with that notion - those lying about there being massive problems after Brexit are now being proven correct are they not?
-
Taking "all politicians lie" as read; which ones lied the most? The ones saying things would be better or worse? And, before anyone says it's a long game, would they please take a moment to think about whether they honestly see price hikes, depletion of the NHS and general American involvments being reversed once we're "back in control"... ever. Apologies for the air quotes.

This reads [I skimmed] like a bit of a blow for the Unst spaceport with a challenge to the Sutherland contender getting fairly short shrift in court: Judge dismisses objections to spaceport in Scotland from billionaire who also wants to build spaceport in Scotland How will the billionaires behind these ventures ever survive?

For hardwood I'd be looking to Bultern and Mulhern. Fine folk too!

With Covid restrictions going, I'm on the look for something to do with Lady Roachmill; we met through dancing and it's something we both loved. Does anyone know of someone starting anything up that would cater for beginners? I can't say we'd be particularly fussy about the style of dancing and would consider pretty much anything. Just not Morris Dancing!
