  1. Not been a quid a litre in over ten years mate.
  2. Anybody else seeing these prices. I paid this for diesel in Yeovil last week and again today in east mids.
  3. So it’s what I read then. Why’s it so bad?
  4. So is there actually going to be a compulsory app installed? As suggested.
  5. Any reference for this ‘compulsory app’? All I can find is a text message being tested on the 23rd?
  6. My boiler packed up on Monday so I’ll be waiting to sweep mine!
  7. In brief, Class R ( Schedule 2, Part 3) of the General Permitted Development Order 2015 (as amended) allows for the change of use from an agricultural building (and land within its curtilage) in England to a commercial use i.e., uses involving storage or distribution, hotels, shops, financial and professional services, restaurants and cafes, and assembly and leisure. So, if you are thinking about converting a farm building to storage, a hotel, an office, gym, or café Class R might be an ideal permitted development option for you. However, you also need to be aware that when going do
  8. There you go, see knew someone would have the answer. I guess I would say again they aren't 'easy'. You need to make the effort and as such people like me will just f**k off the idea and go sainsburys ten mins down the road.
  9. It's a good move putting the consumer more in touch with the producer imo. But one trick ponies like that will have limited draw imo. Small outlets scattered all over which have a collection of 'the basics' ie bread milk eggs butter bacon sausage some veg and maybe some long life canned stuff would be more attractive to consumers to make the effort. But yeah vending machine type things would make the low intensity. Supermarkets are easy hence their success, to make this type of model a success it needs to focus on being easy too. Again jmo. Lots of smart people in the sector, probably a good r
  10. Paid 3 quid for a dozen at the farm by Bulmers pet food the other day. Cheaper than the supermarkets and probably better welfare hens, which matters to me. With Clarkson's farm showing the planning loophole for small farm buildings recently, it got me thinking that there's an opportunity there for more cooperative type local farm shops. They'd have to be targeted at the more economy end of the market, unlike traditional farm shops, but in principle they could pop up all over and with modern technology probably require minimal staffing.
  11. Used cooper at3 for years now. Got a set on the truck now. They’re lovely on road. Id happily have em again but thinking of going BFG next for something a bit biteyer when sideways. Looked at the stt maxx but they’re f***ing ££££!
  12. You're worried that the monarchs advisors are elected?
  13. Totally understand the taking pride in being well turned out. I religiously have a fortnightly cut. I actually enjoy going to the barbers and would find another if it became simply a routine service. 40 mins of talking bollocks and having a bit of crack, to be picked up again in a fortnight, ad infinitum... Men (and women I suppose) have had their little routines since forever, whether it's going to the bookies, newsagents, barbers, pub etc. Just simple shit that keeps you sane. I suppose I'm fortunate to have an English one that is 17 quid a cut.
  14. I suspect he lays it on a bit thick ($ to be made) but I do respect a lot of what he says. Many people are constantly looking for the next super food or supplement or exercise when really they’d be better off just getting better quality sleep. The concept of more sleep = progress is at odds with the current paradigm of “be a savage”. Famously Arnold said “sleep less!” which has been mimicked by many more athletes who brand themselves as being more ‘extreme’ than us mere ‘average’ mortals. There’s an endless list of catch phrases that epitomise that thinking. This guy is a breath of f
  15. f***ing tomatoes! Yeah brexit is a disaster! Can’t handle no winter toms! Give me strength…
  16. A lot of the ‘big’ multi piece strategic moves the Russians make fail, not just air superiority. Amphib landings, large armoured manoeuvres, air ops. They are just not capable of ‘big’ moves like NATO forces are. I’d argue if they had those capabilities then they’d have had Zelensky in Kiev and been holidaying in Crimea for summer. They seem to be little more than a mass (big mass) of second rate marauders with nukes. Which honestly shocks me.
  17. He could have annihilated Ukraine, but I don't believe for a minute he could gain control of it. That has been the biggest shock of the whole thing. The Russian war machine has proven it doesn't have the logistics to support that. To this day they have failed to gain air superiority, never mind supremacy, in a war on their doorstep. When Western powers have shown that capability time and again on battlefields in different hemispheres to their sovereign territory.
  18. A bit of food insecurity would probably do a world of good for long term political sense. In answer to the original question, no I don't think Brexit has been a success at this point. We shed a layer of politicians to give us a more democratic structure but allowed that structure to go totally rotten. Brexit was a step in the right direction by restructuring our democracy, but we filled the positions with the most incompetent people we could find, it seems. If we fail to put the right people in place then the restructuring will have been an act of pure self harm and therefore lo
  19. Just read a bit on Wiki about it.
  20. This happened two years ago!
  21. It's like 4 quid at a drive in automatic washer thing. They say not to put a truck through but they fit. f**k paying them 15 quid to do it. Never have to this day. I usually wash it myself.
  22. One month ago I noticed the same. Something very striking about it isn't there. Look through a half decent pair of binoculars and you'll see three or four of Jupiter's Galilean moons.
  23. Certainly wasn't intended as that from me. I just wanted to say that fishing is inconsequential in this fight. They're an untapped political resource but will remain so.
