Hope you did it as defined by a dictionary.

Is this the same Daily Express which forecast a freezing cold winter, with heavy snowfall ?

Funny you should mention that… http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/this-britain/weather-wars-at-the-met-office-is-it-going-to-be-a-barbecue-summer-this-year-9488085.html

I wouldn’t wrap even my fish and chips in the Grauniad for fear of contamination.

What a dreadful rag.

Ah, someone left the door open. Just as well wrapping chips in newspaper was forbidden, then. Can find some used toilet paper for you, if necessary…;o)

Can’t believe that people are stupid enough to still buy papers and let alone believe whats put in them.

I look at them on my phone, mostly. But print is where nearly all news stories originate.

Daily Express just seems to be a mirror of the Daily Pail – same stories, same pics….

…Same obsession with Diana?

The stories and pics are the same because they come from the same source – usually the same news agency. Then they are rewritten a bit (sometimes, if they can be bothered – but they will credit their own reporters for it anyway) and voila.

Re 23 (my bit)

Yummy ! You too, must be accustomed to the taste; you spout enough of it.

At least the taste won’t be tainted by the vinegar…

Another moan is why do TV weather forecasters rattle on about the day we have just had. Surley the whole nation has not got dementia and forgotten the last 12 hours?

It is to convince the world that they can at least predict what has happened, weather-wise – after all, it is usually on just after a programme about what has happened during the day, news-wise…

Sad, but it is not what is on the job description anymore, one of the jobs consigned to history like slave master, cattle baron, master of the stool, etc.

I understand that you are old (I am talking generally here, not at one person in particular) and you don’t like the way that all the things you grew up with – job titles, countries, freedom to insult whom so ever you like, monetary denominations, vinyl records, ink wells, clay pipes, the British Empire, wattle and daub houses, serfitude and the feudal system – have all been left behind by all except a grumpy few.

Like they sing in Frozen* – let it go, let it go…

*A recent Disney animated film that my two youngest worship. Damnit.

Kids are supposed to be ‘intelligent’ (a term I use advisedly) whereas most dogs are not usually regarded as being able to make decisions and be able to communicate and respond, etc. Whether they do or not doesn’t matter; we are older kids and therefore expect that our offspring will do as we would expect them to – most dogs just run around, chase their tails, etc. Now, what is that disease that comes from dog faeces that causes blindness and is one of the major reasons that dogs are banned from beaches all over Britain?

The beach at West Wittering is privately owned which is probably why they allow dogs on the beach (you know any other beaches which allow dogs on the beach between Easter and October?). We all know that dog owners are renowned for being ignorant of what their mutt is doing when squatting, most quite happy to ignore such little nasty piles and walk away from them without a second glance. An old work colleague was offered violence when she tried to get a dog walker to clear up after his hound – although I imagine the same might/would happen if you did the same to an ignorant parent.
Children won’t be banned from the beach, dogs usually are: you want different try getting your local MP behind it – and good luck with that!

Bad as it maybe..Postal workers are professionals and their job is to deliver.

So are paperboys/girls – so why are these papers not delivered by the recognised delivery system for type?

Correct. They either do what they are paid to do or quit. What a precedent would be set if postman were allowed to choose what they delivered!! Nonsense!

Post ‘persons’ are now having to delivery all sorts of stuff these days – advertising flyers and occasionally samples (breakfast cereal t’other day…). These were never envisaged as their core business – especially, I expect, since these jobs already had people doing them…

Going to disagree there–how about if the titles of the publication were changed to something like the BNP guide –i think they would be supported then,no different to this scummy lot.

Nah – this lot would be happy to see their copies of that publication dropping through their letter box, out of plain cover for a change!;o)

Take the weight off your feet…
