I've just finished! 🤣
When the boychild says that he wants to continue his studies in another country and you're grateful that he's got EU citizenship...
I am at a very good Chinese buffet. Please, I need an intervention. Be quick.
Not even in an open casket?
Belle rentrée à toutes et à tous !
We can but hope.
Douglas Carswell's a cunt. Who knew?
No. There's a big list.
Whether I agree with them or not, unelected members of any church need to stay out of politics.
They both would in a heartbeat - that's another thing that sets them apart.
Out of all of the potential candidates, London could most easily do it, imho.
I use this. I have muted the following three words from my timeline and, frankly, it's now bliss: Trump the and
Makes sense.
I'll go with London and Croatia then. Just to be absolutely clear, I don't think the UK should exist - Scotland should be independent and the UK should withdraw from its occupation of the island of Ireland - and, also, England and London have nothing in common, so I'm an early city-stater.
Complicated question. What does 'country of origin' mean? London/Croatia/France depending on the definition.
I think you're out by, at the very least, two.
Trump has been brain dead for some considerable time.
In 1938, after the international pressure, Czechoslovakia gave Hitler the Sudetenland for "peace." Months later, Germany took the rest - no resistance, no outcry. Still, WWII followed. Today, Russia demands Ukraine give up 5 regions for “peace.” History warns us: appeasement never leads to peace.
Reform UK's Cllr Darren Grimes here, making a differentiation between "migrants" and "people". Because he's a cunt.
Took the Twingo out in torrential rain - it behaved perfectly although you could feel it being pushed by the wind more than the Zoe (for obvious reasons!).
They don't call me Mr Brightside for an... Oh. They just don't call me Mr Brightside.
I think the words "really good" are superfluous. I doubt they could shoot straight and, in any event, they'd be out of breath by the time they'd raised their guns. Also, without wishing to be unkind, even a poor shot would be hard pressed to miss such a substantial target.
You say that but they could just bounce straight back up again like a Space Hopper.
Usually, when someone's fine, nobody has to confirm that they're fine.
The American remake of The Full Monty looks a bit shit.
Carrefour supermarkets give one hour free charging per day - that's a full charge for a Twingo! At home, a full charge is under 4€. This is going to be a very cheap car to run!
Yes. I couldn't go back to petrol now. Just couldn't. It's been too long.
I just don't understand how Orange Hitler doesn't get that it's US consumers that end up having to pay the tariffs. Idiots like him, surrounded by other idiots, just end up in an idiot echo chamber of increasingly stupid ideas.
I'm just arranging my arguments as to why Mrs B should have the Zoe and I should have the Twingo!
Ok, so having driven it for a few hours, my opinion of the electric Renault Twingo is that it's a ridiculous, silly, fun car very much in the spirit of the original Twingo. Completely different driving experience to the Zoe. Both are great in their own way but the Twingo is just pure fun.
Just did almost 400km in our new little Twingo and this is the only charge that I had to pay for! Going to charge it at home overnight and that will come to almost the same amount. Will be ready before breakfast!
Like a dream! Great fun little car!
Fingers crossed that it drives as well as it looks!
From 'Get in the sea' to 'Get in the bin'.
Exactly. Our first Zoe was new - months of stress keeping it pristine. Our second was second hand. Had the smallest of marks on one door where someone had opened their door on it. No stress! Already marked!
I think many of us would be keen to lay our hands on Trump...
God help them.
While there is a preponderance of racism in England, it's worth listening to this. The words and the anger are a perfect expression of those who end up being attacked for no reason at all. open.spotify.com/track/2lkdFI...
👏👏👏 I've said it before, I supported No during the last referendum. I was WRONG. Not going to try to sugar coat it. Scotland needs to control its own destiny rather than have England dictate it. And, yes, well before it became a far right sect, I worked for the Scottish Tory Party. #YesNow
There is that!! I have very low expectations. Got it at auction and it was cheap (relatively). It's marked as the inside showing 'use' but I couldn't see anything from the photos. It's our second car so if it works, I'll be happy. Anything more is a bonus! Fingers crossed!!
This is your occasional reminder that education is the best vaccine against fascism.
Obvs, if it is charged (it won't be), I could just squeak it with a single charge on the way back. But I'm tired so I'm thinking three with coffee and fresh air will be a good idea.
Off to pick up our new (second hand) electric Twingo today. It's about 400km and I'm knackered. Because they're little, city cars, that'll mean probably three stops (I'm assuming it won't be charged when I pick it up) and, just for lols, there's a storm coming. Other than that, FFS.

Evil fuckers. Although, we did know that already.
Yet again, for some reason, the news has neglected to highlight a sex offender's ethnic origin and religion. Sometimes, it seems all they are interested in, other times not. I wonder why? news.sky.com/story/former...

Obviously, Russia hitting the EU delegation building could have been a mistake. Y'know... If they hadn't also hit the British Council building separately as part of the same attack. Putin is desperate to draw in other countries. www.politico.eu/article/russ...
I don't know why but TG Jones sounds like a shoe shop to me.
Makes commercial sense.
You got the vegetarian one?
Uncut things.
Cutting things.
Today's number : 2 The age of the youngest Ukrainian that Putin murdered last night. #SlavaUkraine
Rest in pieces.
Russians are sharing videos on Telegram of their military plants asking Ukrainians to bomb ‘em since they haven’t been paying salaries for over 2 months. 😂
Same reason as every disaster gets coverage - fear sells.
I bet this felt like a good idea at the time... 37 minutes in and I'm already not convinced.
A Citroen Ami? 😁 No!
My dad had a very limited edition E-Type Jag. When I was a tiny kid, he used to put me in it to play with it. I pulled the handbrake, it rolled back into the garage and it was totaled (the garage was a bit of a state too). That's the last time I got into or will get into a sports car!
Was it an electric Twingo?
The thing is that I bought a new car and it was back a few months after for 8000€'s worth of major surgery and I've had a second hand car that is now in for major surgery. The only real difference is that the new car cost more!
Seriously, people! Just because he has a mark on his hand doesn't mean he has some kind of health problem. Maybe he was trying to sexually assault someone again and they fought him off?
But you support the rapist who takes away that baby's healthcare, right? Someone else for the 'check hard drive' list... 🙄
Just bought a car at auction. Not actually seen it in the flesh (just photos). I mean, what could possibly go wrong?!
If he's proposing we begin negotiating peace with Russia once Ukrainian troops have seized Moscow and Putin has shot himself in a bunker, I guess I'd be ok with that. Feels a bit extreme though.
Never gets old. My favourite ever newspaper film description.
But the bit in between is just awful! Can't wait to get my Zoe back from surgery and to get a second car (because 4 of us in the countryside with one car... well, we've done well to drag it out for 6 years!)
At short notice, it was the only choice! :(
Not done a tajine for a while ! Today's the day to remedy that...
I have hired a Citroen C3. A car which, after a couple of days of driving it, I can confirm has no redeeming features.
I mean, I hate to say it, but Britain Ghislaine *is* Britain Ghislaine!
Could be a while... Yeah, let's give it a spin.
What would be funny is if there WAS a military coup, like she wants, but that it was the sort of military coup that was very much against people like her. That'd be funny.
Reminder of what Allison Pearson was hoping for during the school summer holiday.
Awful. And it's that specific sort of 'I'm not even the slightest bit embarrassed about this - you are the problem here not me' attitude. But how difficult can it be to learn just please and thank you?
I hid. I'm just hoping they didn't miss their ferry.
There was a lot of swearing. And not even very good swearing either.
Waiting for the family to get off the ferry. So far, of the people who have come through, one could pass for Olive from On The Buses, one was a Poundland Stephen Merchant and, also, I saw Catweazle. No notes on the last one.
I need to show my son that. Brilliant film.
I've given up on that kind of thinking. We subscribe to one at a time for a few months, watch everything that we missed, cancel and leave it for a while. Tbh, even that's barely worth it!!
I have to move. Sorry.
JFC THEY ARE SO LOUD.
I'm not saying that they're definitely ex-public school but Mike, Nats, Boris, Mads, Holly, Sam and a couple of the others are "going to get a shit load of shower tokens" and wash before the ferry. 'E.T' doesn't want a shower before the ferry.
They're giving off strong ex-public school vibes... I'm going to try to remain calm.
I'm at Roscoff. Surrounded by 20-30 year old Brits who can't say merci or order a beer. Hurry up and get them on their return ferry back!
Imagine how the rest of the world feels!
Worxit means worxit.
😉
My bad. I should have added a warning. Soz.
Really? I mean, you'd think they'd put a drawing of the Houses of Parliament on it or something to let people know, right?!
BREAKING NEWS: UK PART OF WORLD More on this story as we get it.
Ah shit ! Just seen this. Hope you both have a swift recovery.
Just enough time to get some in for tomorrow's breakfast!! 😊 It is lovely - not had it for far too long!
I bet that'd be very nice but I'm very funny about eggs being on things. It's a weird thing because I always like it when they are but I wouldn't put one on! My brain is very odd! 🤣
No, I always poach it in milk and butter. You end up with the sort of smoked haddocky milk (along with your chunk of fish) which is just amazing with or without bread!
Mrs B and the kids are away and I've been without a car (it's having surgery). Yesterday, I hired and car and I bought a treat for breakfast!
Erm... yeah... just the one small question... what the actual fuck is going on?
