I agree. This website has been very useful and encouraging on my language learning journey.

I’ve often thought cold fizzy drinks or bottles of water on hot days

Technically, no, as in the UK, you can’t steal electricity… you can only abstract electricity, which is an offence in its own right. (IANAL)

I’ll get my coat.

I was so annoyed to get that email. Never using them again. Going to install a non-smart wireless thermostat, or maybe a HA install if I’m feeling brave.

Not quite a direct answer, but since watching Mortimer and Whitehouse: Gone Fishing, we’ve enjoyed referring to things in tins/cans as trapped potatoes, trapped beans etc.

It seems to use jawg.io for its base map. Perhaps it’s this?

It brings me a lot of joy to contribute to OSM. I haven’t written anything other than the occasional script for years, so it feels good to help the community in ways like this instead.

I’ve sunk so many hours into it. Either “armchair mapping” with OSM and the imagery overlays, or (more fun) wandering with the android Street Complete app to fill in gaps when I’m out and about.

This thread about the most northerly The North sign might be of interest, and possibly even help :)

Oh, and free access to RCR. What a nice surprise!

That’s not quite true… just less than half of voting Conservative party members voted for him, preferring instead the steady hand of Liz Truss. Well done there guys.

Update: They’re coming! They’re coming! Hurrah!

Not sure what sort of duck we saw on the way into Reading on the K&A, but it gave me a dirty look as we went by!

Oh wow, over £100 lower! Thank you!

I’m keen to learn what the other 20% are satisfactory about.

People seem so friendly here too! (for now at least!)

Maybe he thinks that more of his constituents are pro breathing decent air than pro driving smoggy private vehicles. I’d like to think he’s onto something.

BTW, the duck logo is the duck from Sarah & Duck. It’s a brilliant show, and I think can be found on iPlayer.

We’ve named this duck Martin. Poor chap has a bad wing so we give him double feeding of duck kib when we visit.

I was so close, yet so far from that joke! Brilliant job!

Please consider yourself an honorary boater. Please also collect your official !narrowboat golden toilet cassette from this channel’s concierge.

It does make our good “home coffee” even better!

To add, we watched James Hoffman’s review of good instant coffee and tried the Percol instant. It’s certainly good enough for later-in-the-day coffees, but we always start with the good stuff.

Great username btw!
