Seen "Leave the world behind"?
David Hallett (@hallett.social) reply parent
Very common in the UK is "You alright?" pronounced "Yawlrite?" which has the same meaning. Short for "Are you alright?", meaning "Are you OK?" or "How are you doing?"
David Hallett (@hallett.social) reply parent
Not familiar with that, but "How are you keeping", yes. Means, "How are you?" or "How's it going?"

"Reform has touted its plan as a “legal reset”. But it is better understood as a total rejection of the UK’s postwar international commitments to protect the human rights of everyone within its jurisdiction."

Thanks. It's the Dr monopoly. Absolutely no reason why a standing prescription needs monthly approval. Annual check, sure. Monthly approval? No.

That was the speech I want to hear our UK politicians have the guts to give. They should be queuing up to do it. Instead, their spin doctors and pollsters have them engaging. Don't engage, FIGHT BACK!

For sure, they hate their lives so they make it better by slowly killing themselves. Nobody needs to raid their houses and kill them, they're doing a great job themselves. Their horde is completely redundant.

Fair play to her. She's going to look the part down the range, for sure. Shame it has to involve guns too.

My parents house in Essex was burgled multiple times in the 1970s and 1980s. On one occasion the thieves made off with my father's treasured watch. Some of the property was later recovered and guess what folks... the thieves weren't immigrants.
