In the bag of scrap lead that came from my dad's shed is a roll of lead flashing about 9" wide & 6" in diameter not sure what to do with it seems too useful just to weigh in

@TheMightyZ2 @sharrond62 His life is ruined already, custody now might sort him out.

If a young girl is "old enough" to be a victim of sexual assault, then the young boy who sexually assaulted her is old enough to be sent to prison. Stop with this "he's so young this will ruin his life" mess.

I think I read last week this company also supplies Poland, Ukraine & UAE , so if Russia take one down that's potentially a direct attack on a NATO asset

@haveigotnews Can't help wondering if this was the plan all along next Venezuela, then cripple oil supplies from middle East just to get sanctions lifted on Russian oil
English
The government is to relax sanctions on Russian oil to "help family finances", good news for those hard up Putins from Moscow

@AndyWoodturner How can they expect work shop costs to be less than minimum wage.?
English
Just been accused, via reply to my email giving cost for a job, of "destroying our dreams". Presumably because I don't work for nothing, if, "If you could reduce the workshop rate to around £10 hr", is any guide. But they did offer the carrot of "this would mean regular work". So

@DarmahFurcat @flyer_2001 A question that should have occurred to me years ago, who made the original scratch built models the moulds for airfix kits etc are made from? Are they destroyed in the process of making the mould or are they collectors pices?

FB Just threw this at me, judging by the destinations its the metamorphic stage between a Chinook & a Dakota I had to check it wasn't something from @RAF_Luton

@sharrond62 If Ive got a bigger garden that's more soak away area, less runoff to cause those "over flow sewage spills"

I don’t really understand this! We’re on metres (the vast majority of us anyway) so if you use more water you pay for it. Surely that’s the fair way?

HR: Hi, just calling to let you know we’ll be ending your employment effective today instead of next week. Employee: Wait… today? HR: Yes. It’s now common practice for our business to release employees before their notice period is complete. Employee: So the two weeks notice I gave doesn’t actually matter? HR: We appreciate the professionalism. This is simply company policy. Employee: Interesting. HR: Your system access will be disabled shortly. You can hand your laptop to security before leaving. Employee: I was counting on that final week of pay. HR: I understand. Employee: You know what’s funny? HR: What do you mean? ↓

@rawlimark Nestle got told they couldn't advertise for a blue eyed blond boy to play the milky bar kid, they got round this by saying persons not fitting the current stereotype of the milky bar kid will not be considered, they should apply the same work around to 007

@DaveKent101 @flyer_2001 MPs shouldn't be relying on private advisers regarding tax issues they should have an HMRC adviser who tell them what their tax issues etc are and if they ignore them they are at fault

So an update on Angela Rayner's clean bill of health from HMRC.
What we now know is that Rayner demanded of HMRC that they come to a decision in 24hrs (I wonder why she chose that timescale?🤔🤨).
They did and cleared her.
Just a coincidence that the current head of HMRC is John-Paul Marks who was Yvette Cooper's Private Secretary previously.
Bias anyone?🤔
In the meantime Angela says cheers.

The Convair Kingfish, was a proposed Mach 3 recce platform to replace the U-2 spy plane in the late 1950s. The US Government chose Lockheed's own A-12 design, which evolved into the SR-71 Blackbird. The Kingfish didn't leave the drawing board, which is probably a shame?

@jk_rowling @damekatydenise_ Wait until you see who replaces him

@damekatydenise_ The moment he goes I’m glugging that bottle down in one.

Which one will still be around by Friday:
@jk_rowling’s bottle of Cherry Lambrini or Keir Starmer?
It’s too close to call.

In 1913, Suffragettes planted a bomb in St Paul’s Cathedral. It was made from nitroglycerine, a mustard tin and a wristwatch. It didn’t go off, because the clockwork mechanism was wound in the wrong direction.
