    You can leave school at 16, but you have to undergo formal training or education in some form until the age of 18 nowadays.

    Russell Brand

    I would have a problem with the general age of consent, criminalising perfectly legitimate adolescent activity. I think the predation on under 18s by older people should not be limited to those in a position of power/responsibility as it is currently. But where to draw a hard and fast line is...

    How are you feeling?

    To you guys who are going through your issues with infertility and miscarriage, i so feel for you. My first wife and I had "unexplained fertility" (they didn't know WTF was wrong, in other words). Went through the timed cycles, and a go at IUI which was ectopic. We both said that the positive...

    It's a fucking category 1 carcinogen, FFS - there are decades of research into how much harm it can cause in the human body!

    To answer your specific question, one answer is the workplace exposure limit, above which you must not allow anyone to be exposed (while at work). This value for formaldehyde is 2 parts per million. That said, this also takes into account dilution in room atmospheres, etc., not drawing it...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Because they couldn't use asbestos materials after 1984??

    Yeah, though probably not the same demographic trolling her today, in all honesty!!

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    People on Twitter were having a right go at Penny Mordaunt (as she seemed to be angling for the Defence job) as being hopelessly unqualified for the role. And then they do THIS??? At least knows what a military base looks like (and not just, while Transport Secretary, as a place to park lorries...

    That's probably true - Tony Blair's government for privatising NATS in 2001!

    Things that annoy you

    An autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR) is a tingling sensation that usually begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine, and is the term for the sensation people get when they watch stimulating videos or take part in other activities. I don't think they mean...

    Things that annoy you

    I don't understand the whole ASMR thing! Youtube appears to be littered with videos of women vacuuming or washing up or changing the duvet cover, and this is supposed to induce some kind of goosebump tingling sensation? Doesn't do it for me, i must say. The fact that they are often scantily-clad...

    Yes but it's only 15 minutes from Kenilworth and an hour or more to Leam/Warwick!

    Decent hotels in Cov city centre

    I made the mistake of going to Brean Sands (the beach NOT the Pontins) a few years back when they had some kind of Country & Western thing going on! The number of Confederate flags flying off people's caravans was a good correlation with the degree of inbreeding, i think. Absolutely horrific...

    The Coventry Hill is the one out at Allesley, right? I'll take the recommendation of the Britannia in the same vein, shall I? Thanks @Grendel :) Thanks to everyone who has suggested places. I've also suggested the Holiday Inn in Kenilworth as it's a reliable chain (albeit with a shit breakfast...
