I agree with Flecc. I do have a smartphone but rarely use it because I have a simple Doro 612. The Doro stays charged all week, the smart phone needs charging daily. BUT except for the camera and torch, I cannot find any other use for it. I can relax at my computer desk with a large screen and...

I agree Flecc. But with a huge population, quite large job losses seem to get masked in the general busyness of the City. Port Talbot on the other hand is a steel making plant about 4 miles long, and about the same size as the town itself.

Although I appeared to blame London, I was reporting what I see around the country and peoples attitudes. In reality, London is an indivisible part of the UK. Many regional businesses aspire to have a London office. Young hopeful school leavers gravitate towards London, so it is natural that...

The UK is a terribly divided nation, not the all sweet and loving place that politicians tell us it is. Banksters, flashy grab-alls, scam artists, poor service, you name it we've got it. But, for the well educated, particularly in the South East and London, the EU was just fine. But for the...

Somehow, I don't think that the Conservatives will choose Boris. Probably David Davies. Boris has a magnetic personality and is very popular, but I just don't see him as a Statesman, in fact he is a popular entertainer who unfortunately cannot sing or dance so he is in the wrong profession...

Not re-inventing because I think that I saw something like this years ago on a vintage car. I seem to remember that the flange that held the 'J' end was turned through 90 degrees and the spoke were 'T' ended. You would only need a narrow slot to feed the spoke sideways into the hole, even on the...

Congrats anyway. Inspiring!

No longer active.

I am not talking nonsense. The EU is profoundly undemocratic, believe otherwise if you like. Also, its accounts have not been signed off for years, Worried? Not if you are in the remain camp. Do you realise that there are other forums where pro EU views as expressed on here would be viewed with...

My geriatricphone is probably powered by steam. Because I live in the country, my computer is probably slow. But the pace of life here is slow also. Why fret? I have a smart phone that was second hand when my daughter got it. The only use I have for it is the camera and sometimes the torch. I...

I remain a Brexiter, despite so many Remainers on this site. I do not like being in a Dictatorship, ruled by the unelected, and the suggestion that somehow in yonks to come, those with their hands on the levers of power will hand it over to an elected majority is in my opinion, just pie in the...

Just had the usual kerfuffle changing a broken rear wheel spoke. Has anybody ever considered making the 'J' end detachable? It could be threaded, perhaps an inch or so long, fitted into the hole which the broken spoke has vacated, then all you would need is a straight spoke, threaded at both...

The words 'Nazi Charity' really put lefties in a fit. Simply does not accord with their world view.

OK you are so clever, explain. Do you know the origins of fascism. Have you any idea of the 1890 Parisian anti rationalists? Do you know that Mussolini was imprisoned for his Marxist agitation? It really bugs me when people throw the word fascist about without really knowing what it is.

Old Tom does not have a clue about what 'Fascism', really is. He would be shocked to discover that it is really a Marxist heresy. The EU is inherently in its construction a fascist dictatorship. Democracy has no place in the EU.

Well, he had to clear up the disgraceful mess that Brown and Darling left behind.

Mine, complete with throttle activated has been ridden by a Belgian Police Officer, who did not seem to find anything objectionable about the throttle. Most things have some sort of twist and go to vary the power, my electric toaster has a twist knob, the sewing machine has a foot pedal, my...

Seems to me that the Civil Service were embarrassed by their inability to simply permit throttles. All the issues re the disabled, the handicapped, the war wounded soldiers were obviously a pressure point, together with that Minister inferring that throttles will be kept. My guess is that they...

If I had a smart phone, the heart rate monitor would scare me to death. Why not add a blood pressure monitor?
