  1. IBM have been [got the grant, built the building] and gone. Last time I passed there was acres concrete rubble and suchlike, those green fields lost forever.

    Dog Calming

    It might hep to go out for walks with other dogs, it might or might not help to get another one, maybe try introducing one via a rescue dog charity

    Dog Calming

    I can only suggest cuddles. Sleeping on your bed and on the sofa etc, try to break the routine a wee bit, a ball, a toy etc. My cat has had two types of pheromones, the one that smells slightly of cat wee being the cheapest and most effective. Acupuncture / homeopathic vet/ massage
  5. Name and shame, please ?

    TV licence

    As I can't seem to get an answer to my question, I have paid for a month by DD, I will then cancel, apply for no licence, and then they should phone me

    Oops!

    I do remember the bosun on Taikoo ordering someone to "let go", referring to a halyard or summat. The hands on deck who were preparing the anchor "threw it in the water" and the chain ran out in a thunderous rumble, fortunately we were only doing about three knots forward, so the boat did come to a halt without tearing out the foredeck hardware.

    Why?

    I bought a pack of bamboo toothbrushes to save the planet. They seem to have plastic handles. I will use them for cleaning the keyboard and jobs like that.

    TV licence

    I used to watch Sky courtesy of "upstairs", very annoying when they changed channels.
  10. Is it just me being narky, but that latest newsletter raised my BP, do they go out of their way to irritate. Plastics, they don't even recycle if they can avoid it, and I'm not there to donate to them until such times as I think they know what they are doing. It's not news or information, it's just all rather sickly self congratulations, and too much bright blue. Rant over.
  11. Wot!!!!! You don't realise that your sentence construction is a fail?
  12. When shove comes to push, navigation is travelling from one place to another using navigational aids. I don't really think those people in London who swop moorings on a Saturday can be described as "Navigating the Thames".

    Insurance

    Tesco have a "suck you in strategy", I had the same with pet insurance, went from £4 pcm to £6.00 for accident cover, I just cancelled.

    TV licence

    I was fine with No Licence declaration up till recently, but have had emails and now a letter. I think I watched something via a link, I just assumed a "warning" would appear. Oh yes, and I thought I was watching youtube but it turned out to be something on BBC, so that is at least two contraventions. I did watch a few News type clips, but I thought they were different, neither live nor iPlayer. Presumably they monitor my broadband, I don't have a TV. So I should buy a licence, then cancel in a few months? I tried to explain, but there is no "excuse" box on their website.

    Insurance

    I think everything has gone up faster than inflation. Except the Govt pension

    Why?

    Not in Toytown, it's only Tesco Express. I did try, I can't recall what I needed them for now, that's a worry, It was the time of the Big Decluttering
  17. It makes no sense, to me at least. That's alI can say.
  18. I assume that was the case. I was protected from almost everything in the least scary, and of course there was nothing "explicit" I can't remember how we changed stations, but we definitely had Horizontal Hold

    Why?

    It's quite difficult to get biodegradable ones, I tried, for some non dog reason, but I've just sent off two complaints to "The Council". I walk on the road most of the time, the pavements are trip hazards, plus dog shit and general litter. There is no provision for pavement sweeping as far as I can determine.
  20. It's a foregone conclusion. Sorry things have moved on, weep....................
  21. Fairy Liquid has got phosphates which is bad for fishes, and also silicates to make dishes shine which is bad for painting, so buy one pack of Sugar Soap, or two bottles [five times the price] dilute according to instructions, then add even more warm water, wear Marigolds, use green Scotbrite scrub sheets. Wash off with clean tepid water.
  22. If only we could predict property prices next month, never mind in ten year's time ............. we'd all be billionaires.
