It's 1% of the official material that hasn't been released. Mind you, even 1% is probably hundreds, if not thousands, of pages. Trump 'threatened' to release it when he was President, and is now repeating that mantra should he be re-elected/stages a coup. It's either truly explosive stuff or...

Wasn't apocryphal for me when I returned to my Cortina Mk1 Estate to find all my supermarket shopping stolen, bar one pigeon! To add insult to injury, the bored sergeant in the nearby police station to whom I reported it told me ''you're the thirtieth person today who's reported that today from...

I wonder how the staff member is able to verify such things. I also wonder what the market might be for a false voucher for a Times newspaper both with the exact day's date plus name of subscriber on it. :rolleyes: It's yet another reason why Sainsburys is losing c£100 per week of my business...

It's the same for every county, though. At least with Anderson the reason for his absence from the county side was only because of England duties, and he always seemed to be ready and willing to place for Lancs in-between times, unlike some England players I could mention!

The youngest ever debutant for Lancashire to boot. He seems to be a chip off the old block.

I really only use Morrisons now for their fish counter. They bought Fal Fish a few years ago, and own their own trawler, based at Brixham I believe. They do special offers and their 'end of day' discounts, usually available late afternoon, can offer astounding value e.g. seven scallops for £2...

I bought a small receipt book yesterday, but sans carbon, as I don't need my own copy.

I had that with London Transport as first a management trainee, then when I got a non-job, My colleagues, of whom there were far too many, thought I was mad to quit such a cushy job, But at 24 and married I needed motivation and pride that I was working hard in a worthwhile job.

New York Supreme Court Justice Christina Ryba has ruled that Kennedy's ballot-access petition in the state is invalid, so he can't go on it. Apparently he has to make such pleas in each state, and though some like North Carolina are allowing his name to appear, apparently many more may follow...

My sister's female friend, well into her eighties, seems to be contemplating such a move, but she has history in this regard. She has never learned, so why should she now? Her daughter, living a mere two miles away, seems as unconcerned as ever.

When my father and stepmother moved from one home to another in Bromley they took over the London number 460 4321. No problem until Sainsbury's changed the location of their local store and, on asking for/demanding a memorable telephone number from BT were allocated 464 4321, 464 being an...

This is more down to legal restrictions than money i.e. being prevented by law from appearing on New York State's ballot paper for the coming Presidential election, which may lead to other states adopting the same stance. I wonder how much money will accrue to Mr Kennedy from unknown sources in...

My Clio kept its last 2014 expiring tax disc in its rightful place until it went to the great car showroom in the clouds earlier this year! The scrapping of the system was possibly the worst of all the disastrous decisions taken by the government around that time and has directly impacted all of...

Ah, Safeway. I remember their introduction in the late 1960s and the one opposite Bromley South Station which happened to be about 300 yards from the family home, and also opposite an equally large (for the era) Tesco. They were definitely a cut above the quality of Tesco and carried much more...

Well said. In addition to the reasons you list, there are the obvious ones like waiting for alcohol and pharmaceutical products to be 'approved', and security devices to be removed where necessary, now expanding to a significant number of products. Also, as a subscriber to two print newspapers...

It didn't go bust because Christina Foyle paid peanut wages to her temporary staff, which in practice were 95% plus of them, because she fired them after six months as a matter of principle, or, rather, ideology! There were also many reports of publishers not receiving full, or indeed any...

I'm not saying I don't believe you about hearing the propellers, but how clear is it?

What about the least likely thing ever to rear its head again? That being 'Bob-A-Job' week conducted by wolf cubs i.e. junior scouts of primary school age, in their cub uniform, knocking on strangers' doors and offering to perform a minor household task in return for a 'bob', the slang name for...

If they're acting, they all deserve Oscars.

With four in Soho given Grade 2 listed protection earlier this year.
