This. There are certain sectors that need to remain in public ownership and this is is one of them. Nationalisation won’t cure the problems overnight, but if it increases investment in services and reduces executive remuneration it would at least make feel that the water companies are on “our...

I like this thread. I’m relieved and get much comfort from seeing that there are so many of us with the same or similar issues - which means we’re all completely normal for our age(s). Though I suppose it could also mean we’re all on the verge of going bonkers.

It’s brilliant - my favourite episodes are with Martin Kemp and Richard Osman. Wish I could get a box set

Did it taste nice?

Do the responses above help or do you need more?

I asked my wife and she said that, in my case, it happened many years ago

Yes, I’m not sure my first choice escape route would be to head for a war zone. But for reasons that others have explained it suits Putin’s internal PR machine to link it to Ukraine.

Known also as “tanks”

Is it “first past the post” or PR?

Probably been there for some time - before the war.

I know, but I’m one of those in a niche market who’d like it to be sent to me on dvd, by post, for posterity!

But if it’s a Cougar, shouldn’t it be called Def Cougar?

Wonderful. Won’t alter the result of course, but great to see worldwide publicity to show that inspite of the internal PR machine not everyone in Russia supports Putin. Well done to those brave refuseniks

When you’ve got to go, you’ve got to go. But I’m not sure I’d stab someone to jump the loo queue

I’ve been using the racecourse from day 1 when the stadium opened and it’s only suddenly become a problem in the past few months. Maybe more people are using it but in my view they don’t fill it to capacity and they don’t move traffic quickly enough.

I’d be happy with a tribute video to ourselves. I think we’ve done pretty well.

It’s not all been plain sailing, but it’s wonderful to reflect that in the last 12 months or so we’ve beaten Liverpool (twice), Chelsea (twice), Arsenal, Spurs, Man U (twice), drawn with the European champions (Man City), beaten Ajax (twice), Marseilles and Roma. Never in my wildest dreams did I...

Exactly - one man’s high is another man’s low (and the female view is possibly similar). I’m further concerned at the veracity of this tale due to its reference to “”butcher” and “postman” - jobs which no longer seem to exist. Having just one of those jobs in a village seems unlikely. Having...

I don’t believe it’s possible to predict whether birds will be flying high, so it’s a highly implausible code phrase and therefore casts doubt on the whole story I’m afraid.

Too many to list!! But the list I’d watch again is getting longer.
