Have meetings dotted around the M25 over the course of the day, so will probably mean I'll do a full loop.Originally Posted by Spikey M
I remember a blonde ex took me to Chessington many years ago as a surprise. She went the wrong way round the M25 so it took nearly 3 hours as appose to 40 mins. Pre sat nav days.
Boris has 7 kids. He's been spreading his seed.

If he's admitting to that many it's probably somewhere in the double figures.

Oi Queeny, where is our report from our man on the ground?
Bit like asking you what it was like if there was an earthquake in Gibraltar.
Not good the poor buggers.
Reddit should have good footage on r/melbourne and r/australia.
The earthquake was also felt in neighbouring South Australia and New South Wales (NSW).
I still read this line with utter disbelief.
And am staggered no one that I saw actually asked him what peril these dogs and cats were in.It says "all staff and their families, including young children and two newborns, and 162 dogs and cats have been delivered to safety."
The best bit was when he asked the Taliban for help.
Errrr... it's them you're meant to be fleeing, mate.
We need an update on the dogs and cats really. I mean, absolutely no chance I'd take one of the mangy things in, but I'd sleep easier if I knew how they were.
He's probably put it on his Twitter but I don't think I could suffer the smugness for long enough.
I'd assumed they were all dying in quarantine. I still can't get over the whole thing. Dogs and Cats. Utterly mental.
Earthquake footage looks intense.

Hopefully one of them has Rabies, manages to bite someone and gets it back into circulation over here. It's what Gironimo would have wanted.
Presumably an Afghan evacuee rescue dog is the ultimate middle class status symbol.
That bloke filming himself planking deserved the ceiling to fall in.
Yeah that made furious.
Fuck me this also happened today.
The Police cleared the shrine of protesters with rubber bullets.

Nonsense tabloid article but made me smile.
I commented on the Pen Farthing stuff and it just caused a pile on of mentalists telling me how I was wrong and he offered people seats on his plane, that nasty Biden wouldn't let him. Who am I to not credit this hero for bringing these animals here?
I'd wager far more than the afghan equivalents of rescue animals have been put down in the interim, due to no rehoming.
Although I can't really endorse the idea of using (I assume maybe not very good) French to further antagonise the actual French over this nuclear submarine pact as a very good idea, I also can't deny the fact that it definitely is funny.
He looks so pleased with himself after he's said it.
I did have a chuckle at the EU suspending a trade deal with Australia until they said sorry to France.
Oi oi oi.

Trying to conceive? Pet, you were 17 when you started."We had a few safety nets, but they weren't enough for Covid," says Marshall Kinder-Maiss, 20.
Three weeks before the UK went into lockdown in March 2020, he and his partner Joanne thought their dreams had come true. After 18 months of trying to conceive a child, Joanne had just given birth to a baby boy, Roman.
Not having a kid would've solved that.They are now £4,000 in rent arrears and have been served with an eviction notice. They must leave the house by 11 October.
Yeah, that's what happens when you take one person's ability to earn and add another mouth into the mix. At 19.When the couple were both working full-time, they used to take home around £2,000 a month. Their £450-a-month rent quickly became unaffordable as overdrafts were maximised to pay for living expenses. They've struggled to pay rent ever since.
Something doesn't add up there at all. They were either Furloughed and above UC earning qualifiers - so pay your rent, you're 20% down, cut back elsewhere - or they were out of work - so claim UC and they pay your rent for you.
I genuinely believe the Government banning evictions has caused more problems than it solved. It was perceived as permission to not pay their rent by alot of people, and they've absolutely fucked themselves in the long run.

Absolutely. A friend of mine helps his dad manage a few rental properties, and he had some tenants - who were still working throughout lockdown - just stop paying rent, because they knew they could get away with it. Last time I spoke to him, they were 10 months behind and refusing to pay or leave.
Once Fulough was established was there any need for anyone to pay absolutely no rent for a year?
This, I suspect, is another reason why we have no workers at the moment for minimum wage roles. The young uns' went home to their parents and those who'd moved out thought 'FREE MONEYZ'.
Some people are just unstoppably thick, as well. Like a YouTube bloke I follow who has pissed away $128k in 11 months on drink and mobile games. A year after having $133k written off via a bankruptcy that wouldn’t have got through if it weren’t for Covid.
Fuck landlords.
I don't know if the article has been amended but it says he's 27 when I click on the link.https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-58643437

I reported my landlord and estate agent to trading standards for trying to charge me fees for drawing up the new contract, asking for a end of tenancy checkout and end of tenancy clean. Fuck you cuntos, respect the Tenancy Act 2019.
So, anyway, this whole gas business got my BS feelers tingling earlier in the week. I was wondering to myself whether the much reported rise in the price over the last year or whatever it is that is most commonly reported was simply one of the many things which 'has gone up a lot' since bottoming out during covid. I have no expertise in the field, but cursory googling suggests maybe this is the case:
https://www.erce.energy/graph/uk-nat...bp-spot-price/
I have no idea of the provenance of that source, but other places seem to largely mirror what it says.
So, my question is, with gas prices ostensibly well within normal parameters, why is there such a massive crisis leading to loads of energy companies going bust? Is it a phenomenon related to the practice of fixing utility prices over a period of months/years (admittedly a practice with which I wasn't familiar until quite recently)? Have loads of 'energy providers' simply sprouted during covid because prices were at rock bottom, fixed in contracts with consumers on the assumption of this remaining the case forever, and now that it isn't and you actually have to pay for gas they are all going bust [presumably rather than lose money on the forward contracts they have committed to]? All seems very suss to me.
All the big players getting people to lock into 3 year deals now when the market is at its absolute peak [potentially] also seems like a somewhat questionable practice.
It has. Kind of puts their position in a different light.

Here come the lady protests/vigils.
Ps. But I'm pleased that the alleged perpetrator has been caught.
That is such an unlucky one. The window to have killed her must have been tiny. Hang him, and hang that cunt who killed the sleepover family too.
That sleepover one is extra horrible.
Perhaps have the trial first and then ship them off to an island. I really think a prison island is a great idea. No guards or rules on the island. Leave them to it.
It is. Kill your partner by all means, but why kill not even your kids and their friend?
The Gabby Petito case looks dodgy as fuck, too. The bald bloke does a runner whilst his parents appear to actively hold up the Feds.
Yeah that is an odd one. Wonder if he's hiding or has he off'd himself? I think the former, but surely someone would see/find him.
The sleepover one is pure psycho behaviour and needs to be punished beyond the scope of what the law offers. The Gabby Petito one seems pretty open and shut, cabin fever and her fella has snapped and killed her.
The schoolteacher one, I genuinely don't think this is a random attack. The walking route from her house to the pub wasn't even direct via the park. To chance your arm on a random killing at that time of night with people around is very odd (I know killing is odd, obviously, but people who kill opportunistically are usually either interested in the process or product). I haven't seen it reported if anything was stolen, presumably not sexually assualted - police might keep things under their hat of course. To me that makes me think she will have known the killer, even vaguely.

I thought it might have been some 'community' thing at first when they were being a bit cagey about details.
I had to visit four diesel stations tonight for fuel. I dont keep up with the world as much as I should, but it seems energy shortages have been a thing over the past week.

We can offer you mates rates to use either Manus Island or Nauru. Politicians from the opposition and the cross bench and the Media arent allowed in so you are free to do what you like to them...
He has got such kickable face.

One meeting with Joe Biden and the cuck Liberal Party do a complete 180* on climate change.

How the fuck are they going to deprogramme all those red pilled boomers they have spent 10 plus years brain washing against climate change?
