Yep - fireworks are recognised for certain celebrations; not for all everyday, just because we can and we like shiny things

You're clearly trolling. You cannot really be that selfish and entitled, that you would put a total avoidable stress on so many others for your own brief gratification.

could be related to the three arrests yesterday. Without knowing, it is just speculation "All three men were arrested on suspicion of assisting a foreign intelligence service, contrary to section 3 of the National Security Act (NSA), 2023 and they were taken to a police station in London." (Met News)

that isn't what I said at all.

What kind of witch hunt is this? mandatory facial recognition? prison for shoplifters? Shops can protect their stock as they wish. but they choose profits first. The obvious solution would be delivery only - and when you can get your shopping in 15minutes, who really needs to go to the shop? but no, the shops like the sales from people browsing and being hungry when they shop. They don't lay the shops out for our enjoyment. They don't actually care that much. If they did, there would be active and empowered security, lower stock on shelves, more security tags etc... don't be fooled. If you're going to go after shoplifters, go after the organised crime, theft to order etc

I’d just like local family businesses to not be shut down by big chains, and I think we should support local businesses and our community. I’m sure they are very nice people who pay their taxes too.

Our local delivery driver was followed and had his van stolen.

With the current economic crisis, there are still plenty of people who will pay a fiver for a cake or upwards for a sandwich. Whether that's at Gail's or any other bakery - M&S included. I've just discovered the M&S Marmite sandwich which is a steal at £2.50 or something. Love their salads too. I rarely buy cakes - I make lots as I know what's in them, and it's infinitely cheaper

mobile networks use the signals like phones so (rather than the usual broadband cables) but you need a dongle (or something else) for your laptop etc.

we use Virgin - rather expensive but works fine.

there should be information about boosting your immune system naturally - how to eat well - good nutrition, vitamins etc.

well, actually I didn't - was just winding Teddyboy23 up 🙂 I would like to come to the next one though please.

well I got there at midnight and couldn't find anyone. I thought we were going out out.

seeds are quite pricey though. It may be nice to make your own but not sure the cost, time invested and the faff would be worth it. having said that, you can buy seeds as a bakers mix which seems to be cheaper. I'd get mine from Waitrose. I did try Gail's but they were quite burnt. buywholefoodsonline is very good (not letting me paste the link

perhaps you haven't noticed the dug up roads around the area over the last year, at least.
