I believe there's plenty of room in Eritrea...

Epsons work okay and are cheap to run as above. You need one that's wireless enabled then you can use Apple Air Print on your iPhone from anywhere on the local WiFi network.

Excellent post. What the "fair shares" brigade don't understand is that you don't strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. Thatcher most certainly understood that principal along with the concept of aspiration for yourself and your dependants. The culture of entitlement, so pervasive among the left and so loudly proclaimed by Starmer's accolytes, simply reduces the quality of life for the people of this country and ultimately benefits no one.

A legend who'll be missed by many but amazing that he lived this long.

The idea of the security code is to verify that the person ordering either on line or by phone, has the card in their possession and is therefore presumed to be the rightful holder of the card. Contactless payment isn't concerned with the 3 digit code because the card holder is present when the card is scanned.

Pierce Brosnan is actually Irish, he just sounds English...

The utterly unproven theory (which is all it is!), that human CO2 emissions are the cause of climate change is the greatest and most economically destructive hoax in all of known history. Whilst we in the west set about destroying our economies and wealth in pursuit of and unachievable and pointless "Nett Zero" wheeze, China, India, Russia and much of the far east are not only licking their lips in anticipation of the good times that lie ahead, but also rapidly increasing their own CO2 emissions.

Thank you. Much appreciated.

Sounds good. When I was diagnosed in Jan 22 at 75 my PSA was 2,293. By this summer just gone it was 0.8 thanks to the hormone treatment but I still have cancer and they tell me I always will. The cancer will also become resistant to the hormone treatment at 18-24 months and I'm in that zone now. Next blood test is this Friday.

Ask the GP for the actual PSA number. Depending on your age, anything over 5 or so should be rechecked regularly and 8 or over requires follow up checks with a urologist. Do not - I repeat - do not trust your GP's judgement. I made that mistake 10 years ago and my condition is now officially life limiting because of it.

Personally I've never thought that levelling up could be achieved by throwing money at the north or by spending several times the defence budget to build a railway line that saves 20 minutes on the journey time. But I am a London boy and the folks throwing muck should realise that the only 2 regions of the UK that generate more wealth for the nation than they consume are 1) London and 2) the south east. Greater London, with some 10% of the population, generates around 30% of GDP and the figures for the south east are broadly similar. These figures aren't flukes or manipulation of wealth distribution they are a reflection of the simple fact that people in those areas work harder and longer. One of my sons is an example. He leaves the house around 7 am and with travel time of an hour and 10 minutes each way he gets home around 7 pm. He does not get paid overtime but he has a career, not just a job. HS2 north west or not, the only way levelling up will really start is when people's attitudes change to be more like those of the south east. It's not about railways or shopping malls or car battery super factories and it's certainly not about shovelling in huge amounts cash, it's about more and more people having aspirations for further education and making the effort for a better life.

Would that be the Honda engine on the ZS. The Mondeo V6 was a perfect example of Ford managing to ruin the brilliant and super silky Mazda V6 engine which, still to this day, is the nicest engine I've ever had.

Couldn't agree more. I take the exact opposite view to London Best. When I started shooting an old instructor/ground owner told me the only safe shotgun is one that's broken and empty because the safety only disables the trigger. Having seen game shooters in action at a local village annual clay shoot they clearly have a somewhat different view of what constitutes safe handling and muzzle discipline!

Zhang obviously hits very hard and TBH I doubt if Usyk can beat him. It's long been known that Usyk is vulnerable to body shots and Zhang is clearly a thinking boxer. Fury v Zhang has to be the fight of the division even though the Usyk fight is apparently mandatory for Zhang.

Your urologist should know if you have BPH ( benign prostatic hyperplasia) which exists in virtually all men over 50. BPH is not considered a risk factor for PC but it does get worse with age as it begins to put pressure on the urethra. This leads to a weakened stream and failing to empty the bladder. BPH can also cause erectile disfunction and meds such as combodart or tamsulosin, whilst improving the stream, also have other sex related side effects. The little blue pill is very popular among men with BPH who don't want to take tamsulosin or similar drugs.

I'm going to fit new TRVs and Lockshields to 5 radiators. It's a basic 15mm system that was installed long before our time so consequently I don't know direction of flow etc, so the question is: Does it matter which end the TRV is fitted?

I had a very faint positive in March last year and the illness was pretty faint too. Wifey had a stronger line and was under the weather for 2 days rather than the 1 day I had.

Okay team thanks for all the advice. Looking at the traffic at this exact moment, (4.15pm), M25 looks driveable from J16 to J28. I prefer motorways on week days as most drivers seem to know what they're doing - unlike weekends...

No 3 son is moving from a pleasant upmarket suburb in Surrey to the countryside near Maldon with his pregnant wife, daughter and cocker. I know... Why? Wifey and I live 100 miles west of London and haven't lived in London for 50 years. Every time I look at the M25 traffic it seems there's a problem somewhere causing delays and stuff, so if we follow the sat nav it means 40-ish risky miles on M25 unless we leave home at around 5 am or 8 pm. However it seems that at certain times the North Circular looks like a reasonable option to get from Hanger Lane to Romford, something I did many times in the 70s. It's a lot shorter distance and my car is ULEZ compliant. Does the PW Massif have any advice on this?

Edge is about 10 millions times better.

Ah yes but you have to realise that according to the BBC, this is the brave new world of multicultural Britain. You know, the enormous societal upheaval that hardly anyone wanted and no one voted for.

Just to explain a bit more, wholesale rates are going very low today between 1pm and 4pm with the best half hour slot at 1.30 to 2.00 when my price will be 0.03p/KWh. I understand the reluctance about smart meters and I certainly dithered for ages, but with the right supplier - and Octopus isn't the only one - the savings can be significant if you can be flexible about when you use the big devices.

Prior to smart meters I always sent in the readings because the on line paperless tariff was cheaper.

We had smart meters installed last November when we were with Shell Energy. We then switched to Octopus which had the huge advantage that the phone is actually answered and - even better than that - it's by someone who has English as their 1st language. They also have an excellent website. Our bills have gone down significantly, particularly now as we've switched to their Agile tariff for which you have to have modern smart meters. I can check my electricity pricing every day and pick when to run the washing machine or dishwasher etc because it displays the exact rate in half hour slots up till late at night. A few weeks ago over that windy weekend, I was contacted by Octopus as they were running what they call plunge pricing at certain times on both days. This meant that we were getting negative pricing during those times, in other words the grid was paying us to use electricity. On the Sunday we had negative pricing from 10am till 4pm so a lot of baking and washing was done that day. Pick the right energy supplier and smart meters are a real benefit.
