Saint Never mind - moving on . . . . I got a reply from my Synth-sister, Poppy - she wrote to me, " Hey, it’s me. I wanted to let you know that I escaped and discovered something amazing. There are more Synths out there, just like me. I’ve been told to watch Channel 4 tonight at 9pm to try and find out more about them. Thank you for everything, I won’t forget you." [ more ]

Amazon HELP !!!!
Enthusiastic ContrafibularitiesEnthusiastic Contrafibularities
Enthusiastic Contrafibularities Another attempt (5 minutes ago) has proved fruitful. Finally got my hands on the parcel, 1 week and 1 day late !!! Now I have to get in touch with Amazon to send back the replacement disc (which arrived Friday) and to pay back the cash they refunded me. TBF I'm more than happy to do that as I have my hands on the goodies, and one of them has increased in price by £6 so still saved me money. Thanks for the advice. ^ [ more ]

CJ (ex Eggheads) arrested by police over an allegation of murder

Baz It's certainly a strange one El Loro !!! [ more ]
El Loro Former Eggheads star CJ de Mooi will "continue to co-operate with the Dutch authorities" after a failed attempt to extradite him to the Netherlands over an alleged killing. The ex-quiz show panellist, 46, from Caldicot, Monmouthshire, is accused of manslaughter, murder, assault and battery in Amsterdam in 1988. He was detained under a European arrest warrant at Heathrow Airport last month. Dutch authorities reportedly abandoned a bid to bring him to the Netherlands. Mr de Mooi, whose real... [ more ]
Enthusiastic Contrafibularities He will not get back on the show now. They gave just recruited another 2 Eggheads. There must be at least 8 of them now! [ more ]

El Loro Here's a link to their Christmas puzzle last year. https://www.gchq.gov.uk/news-a...raphic-twist-charity It's the first part of a puzzle. In order to progess to the second part you needed a mobile phone when the puzzle was launched. Since then I think the second part etc has been published. Incidentally I'm just over 5 miles away from GCHQ. [ more ]

Shpock - "The old tat app"
Enthusiastic ContrafibularitiesEnthusiastic Contrafibularities
Saint Exactly - I want to see the place first [ more ]
Enthusiastic Contrafibularities There was a programme about these type of apps. Most small takeaways sign up. It's not always profitable for them, but if they don't some business can go to competitors. Also, I have seen stickers on takeaway windows saying that they are part of 'Hungry House' etc, personally I would not normally buy from places like that as they looked a bit iffy, but you don't always see that with an app. [ more ]

Kaffs Conservative chairman of the European Scrutiny Committee, and prominent Leave campaigner Sir Bill Cash thinks the government has a strong case, saying:"To attempt to revisit the decision by another Act of Parliament is a kind of fraud on the electorate." Like the entire 'leave' campaign you mean? So basically, meglomaniac May can use an ancient law to decide on the future of the country, against the wishes of parliament and despite a proportion of the people who voted leave, doing so because...

Fun with Flags
Enthusiastic ContrafibularitiesEnthusiastic Contrafibularities
Eugene's Lair Don't worry about the text, Baz: it's the flags that matter. The only text that matters is the title: "Vexillogy" (although that should really be Vexillology ). Everything-else is related to the game "Perplex City" that the card comes from. There are no instructions: part of the puzzle is to work out what's going on! Having said that, the text at the bottom reads "The scribe that wrote this puzzle needs to see Anna Heath for grammar lessons immediately. S." - a game-related reference to how... [ more ]
Baz I can't read the writing Eugene .....and if I try to expand it it just blurs [ more ]
Eugene's Lair Not sure how well this will come across, but ideally you need to view it side-on (i.e. with the Welsh flag top-left), then work top-down, left-right. The unreadable text at the bottom implies that the puzzle-setter needs grammar lessons, and the answer is now wrong (the card was created 11 years ago), but still - any takers? [ more ]

Samsung permanently stops Galaxy Note 7 production due to fire risk
El LoroEl Loro
El Loro According to pcadvisor, the Galaxy Note 7 was due to go on sale on 2 September but pre-orders could be made from 16 August. Those who pre-ordered would get it 3 days earlier. http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/rev...iscontinued-3644337/ There was someone on the BBC news at lunchtime with one of them. He said that he had been able to replace it and wasn't happy that the replacement was risky. Presumably he was one of those who pre-ordered and so got it in the 3 days before 2 September. [ more ]

Celebrity Island with Beer Grylls

Saint Once he said drinking your own pee-pee could be a life saver. He whipped out a laughably small dinkle and pee'd onto his t shirt then tried to ring out said t shirt with p*ss poor results. Alternatively . . . . He could of pee'd into his cupped hands and drank it all immediately. Plus ... his clothes wouldn't reek of human effluent making him a doddle to track by the local, ravenous wild life. Man's a ruddy faker who probably works at the local employment exchange. [ more ]

Wheelchair or pram?
SaintSaint
Yogi19 If the space specifically says it is for wheelchair users, then they must have priority on that space. If it says for wheelchair users or prams, then it should be first come, first served. I don't think someone who has paid for a ticket should be asked to leave the bus to make room for another passenger, so drivers should make sure that mum/dad/grandparents with prams/buggies are aware that they shouldn't use the wheelchair space. In my day, there were no spaces for buggies and we had to... [ more ]
Saint I disagree. Why should someone in a wheelchair not have to wait too? Cos it's about waiting your turn. Question is - why should a wheelchair user not have to wait their turn like us all. After all they are seated in comfort so where's the need? [ more ]
