We had Parking Enforcement in the Street yesterday morning.... and not a parent to be seen parking!

 

We have No Stopping restrictions 8-9am and 2.30-3.30pm M-F being a School Street.

 

Only a few of the regular locals were parked! (Who were ticketed).

 

Yet when the wardens don't show up (Which is almost never!), there is hardly an empty spot!

 

However they know - it is very efficient! If it is via FB then obviously only the FB Group members ignore the restrictions normally!

When you send freight by plane, why is it called a shipment?





Most of the posters in this thread are just like chimpanzees on MDMA, full of feelings of bonhomie, joy, and optimism. Fred99 8/4/21

If ketchup is basically liquified tomatoes, is that technically a fruit smoothie?

If you get out of the shower clean, how do towels get dirty?

Back in the 1960s there was a product sold in small fluted glass jars, called "meat paste" that my mother slapped between slices of white bread plastered with 1/4 inch thickness of butter and called it a "sandwich".  I ate it once, then never again, I subsisted on the free warm milk at school that tasted off because it had been left in the sun (IOW it tasted off because it was), a slice of apple that had gone brown by lunchtime, and if I was lucky a tiny cardboard pack of raisins.  Fearing the reaction if I returned home with the sandwiches in my lunchbox, I biffed them in the bin for years, and gradually got thinner and thinner.  The reaction to this from my mother - fear that I was "failing to thrive" - was to carve even thicker slices of cold nasty butter, and pack my sandwich with even more of that vile grey substance that even the school cat wouldn't touch.

 

What was that "meat" paste actually made from?

 

 

 

 

people?

There's an overlap between 'former students' and 'former people'.

So despite their teachers' predictions they did eventually amount to something.

Why are so many people signing the petition Do not allow Jeff Bezos to return to Earth before he's left?
