A holder of a WM senior bus pass gets free rail travel within the WM area, subject to time restrictions, ( for the moment anyway). If you wish to travel further afield you only have to pay from the last station in the W M area, my question is, does the train have to stop at that station as per...

Printer has packed up and I need to replace it fairly quickly, I would normally go for another HP but, whilst I can get a printer no problem, HP ink cartridges are like hens teeth at the moment. I can order one from Argos and have it delivered to my local Sainsbury's for next day collection. As...

Got a call from one of my mates this morning asking why I wasn't at his place as I said I would be, we have got a "project " on at the moment, I said haven't you seen the news, we are in lockdown, his reply was absolutely staggering.
