This term really needles me. Most of what I believe are referred to as "weeds" are meadow plants that are *supposed* to be here. Rosebay willow herb, dandelion, clover, daisies, doc,...
I just found a small pile of abandoned mammalian discardings on the hall carpet. 'Minnie' likes to reap the fruits of the back garden now and then, presumably to sate her hunter/killer instincts...
Ford Puma recently failed MOT on handbrake (13% efficiency/not working on nearside). Renewed shoes and lubricated/checked everything properly. Checked/adjusted the nut beneath the handbrake lever - no...
My otherwise wonderful and fun-to-drive Ford Puma recently failed its MOT on ABS/TC (warning lights lit up on the dashboard). I just spent half a day sorting it out. I tested the impedance on the...
I try to sign up with Tumbler, follow the instructions, providing an e-mail address, password and username as instructed, then I check the box marked "I have read, understand, and agree to the...
My boss (having recently put me on the payroll) is for some reason staggering my monthly wages. For example, last month I was paid from the beginning of the month up to one week shy of the end, I was...
I have been working for a specialist cleaning group that has been trading for just over one year. They have built up a reasonable client base and I have been working for them since a month or so after...

It's quite telling that I've been on hold for about 1/2 hr so far - thank god for speakerphone !...

For a while now I've noticed that I've not been receiving any responses to status updates or any other postings (photos I've uploaded etc) that would normally show up in the newsfeed. I've just put it...
...as quoted by ...THE DAILY MAIL ! Are they trying to kill off their readership ? Have they finally realised ? Is there hope at last ? :-) Sorry but I just had to return here to post this. Link:...
(...handwriting) I have a small ceramic sculpture that was brought back from the Ukraine some years ago and it has a label underneath with some handwriting on it. I assume it's Russian, I'd love to...
Can I suggest that an index of posters be added/maintained so that we don't have to engage in the heinous crime of so much as asking where someone is and if they've been banned/suspended when we...
I just learnt the hard way that you can now be done (to the tune of £65) for having so much as one wheel momentarily stationary on a box junction. The thing is I'm skint at the moment and the...
