  1. What makes it Virgin? Or extra virgin?
  2. Thanks Stu!!!
  3. Good morning. Packing propped begins today. Need somehow to make sense of it all. BiL and Sis have the children from when we get started.
  4. TB2 was by far the best vehicle. I wore out a vhs of TB3 getting perilously close to the sun when I was little. I think TB4 confused me because why have it when there is stingray.
  5. Quite agree, I was responding to @Trooper74most recent slight against the nhs in the space thread.
  6. In 2017 the commonwealth fund again described the NHS as the best performing healthcare system when rated against ten other 1st world healthcare systems. This included in efficiency/cost effectiveness. Our spending as a part of GDP is not all that high. The non clinical people earning over 100k that you describe are a part of a board whom employ thousands and thousand of people, are responsible for managing the budgets in the millions/tens of millions and more. boards of equally large and responsible private companies have incredible remuneration including pension products. When we last disagreed about this I did not point out that people often compare the pension and other benefits profiles of those earning less than 100k in the private sector. The disparity is not so clear in those above 100k. There are absolutely things the NHS could do better and there are definitely times it does not succeed. It actively treats over a million people per day. we could cut out the senior management but then I can assure you the efficacy would drop. It would be wonderful to remove the faux marketisation in the health service. Any willing provider and competition between NHS providers has not improved quality in my opinion and despite being bloody good the nhs has lost its shine because of those factors.
  7. And/or not prioritising the billions it costs. That is short sighted because the economy benefits from these big projects. But then we have not maintained our infrastructure over the past fifteen years let alone made it ready for 15 years time so what do we expect.
  8. Cool!!! Start to colonise other planets and moons!
  9. Are these larger than the other SPace X rockets ? What is the advancement with this model?
  10. Maypole just along from Shirley:-) right by the big Sainsbury’s on the roundabout on the 435 I am so chuffing excited now! Spoke to conveyancer, no reason we won’t complete on Monday no chain involved. Started packing, but embarrassed that I have five boxes of dvds
  11. We have. Exchanged!
  12. Just because the BBC are not publishing does not mean that those stats are not done and not thought about. Is your axe blunt again already.
  13. PHE as in Public health England, you are saying are pro suicide?
  14. When I was looking to get my bike I kept seeing your comments about er5 and kept looking and all the ones I could see were as much as my zzr and over. A grand. You could absolutely make money buying them tarting up and selling.
  15. It’s good to go. Three bed, tidy garden, 150 meters to my allotment wnt shed from the front door. Going to be ace
  16. Have never owned before I am quite excited and at the same time nervous.
  17. Hopefully buying a house over Fri to Monday.
  18. Yes I can’t stick my hands in my pocket right now because I am hopefully buying a house Monday but I would value it and contribute later.
  19. When I am on the bike I am often holding up cars in twenties. Because I am doing twenty. This was this morning after serious snow followed by minus 5 temps. Roads were useable but only with caution. nobber!
  20. I left the house at just after six this morning. In then car. Going through bald all heath is a twenty zone. Caution was required because of the inclement weather. I was overtaken. Twice. Nob.
  21. I don’t know what an enduro suit is. They are mix of leather and textile for-tex and can zip together I think.
  22. I have a jacket and 32 inch trousers I would be willing to sell. They are Heinz Gerrick. The zip at the boot on one trouser leg does not work. If interested potentially let me know and I will take photos etc. monkey selling due to growing too much this year.
  23. They are sweet peppers
  24. Other things to do in isolation, grow stuff!
  25. I must confess I am envious as all f**k!
