A buddy of mine had one of these years ago, I really liked it and you’ve reminded me I need to get one from aliexpress. ;)

The German word Preiswert is great for this, means ‘worth the price’ As opposed to billig - cheap.

I understand, Go on.

To mark the initiative, said to be the first of its kind since admission charges were introduced 125 years ago, the Guardian was granted 20 minutes in the circle on Tuesday morning to sample the solitude.

Maybe 25years ago?

When I was a kid, you could pull over in a layby on the road adjacent the stones and just step onto a path straight to the stones, later there was a small National Trust car park added with a parking fee. Then years later they blocked the road off to protect the stones from traffic exhaust damage, and built up the visitor centre you see today.

The defendant had 21 previous convictions for 40 offences

5/7

No, he was handed to US forces, they court-martialled, acquitted, gave an honourable discharge, he went home to the US. Then only later did the FBI investigate with some additional evidence, and after that was given 5 years and a tracking condition for 20years on release - because of the risk he posed to women!

Floor?

“who had been protesting outside the station after a pigeon was killedin the town by a man on a mobility scooter.”

Simple; it’s a thug’s game, played by thugs and watched by thugs. (Source; grew up in ‘80s Britain - football violence ruined this game forever and scenes like this prove the point year after year.)

This annoys me intensely. I don’t own a tv or monitor from LG, but I do have an excellent (dumb) washing machine and fridge, I would have updated my TV which is currently a fairly basic Samsung TV, because of it’s ads and I’ve decided they are on my shit list for this kind of thing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luddite

The Luddites were members of a 19th-century movement of English textileworkers who were against the usage of certain types of automated machinery owing to their concerns relating to worker pay, child labour, working conditions and output quality. They often destroyed the machines in organised raids.[1][2] Members of the group referred to themselves as Luddites, self-described followers of “Ned Ludd”, a legendary weaver whose name was used as a pseudonym in threatening letters to mill owners and government officials.[3]

I didn’t find it, that’s what it means, same as queer means ‘weird’ Both of those meanings predate the other usage.

You realise that the meaning of that word can literally be applied to holding something back? Ignition system on a car fuelling adjustment : advance/retard. You don’t see this anymore because the engine management does it for you.

I’m sure he’s fine with the racists bringing the English flag into disrepute by tying them up on lampposts here there and everywhere.

I’m sure it won’t take long to infect everything.

Which region?

I haven’t seen this apart from an account pop up that can be dismissed so far in UK.

Agree completely, I was thinking birdshot, not something for deer.

The reason I mentioned a type of shot gun, is that the distance it remains lethal is short, and if you’re shooting up towards something, it wouldn’t come down lethal like a pistol or rifle round, which could be dangerous for as long as it maintains a ballistic trajectory. But yes, not a wise thing to attempt in all seriousness.
