Had noticed that car parks were going away from taking any sort of cash and making it card only. Was over at Touchwood today and they had taken it a step further, had to pay to park the car on line. Is it possible to just get a card and put money on it to use as needed?

Agree, and Campbell does like to breeze over issues related to the Blair administration but well worth a listen.

Have started reading 'Politics on the Edge' by Rory Stewart. Its an insider account of his time in politics, very well written. He also does a podcast with Alister Campbell (The Rest is Politics) that is very good.

I get that when I use my laptop but not my tablet.

Went to restaurant at 'The Telegraph' last night and was very impressed. Although it was a Tuesday so it was no more than about one third full it had a really nice relaxed atmosphere. The food that came out was very well cooked, appropriate portion size and well presented. Had a look round and...

Love reading this thread. Retired a couple of years ago from the NHS, always paid extra contributions into my pension so it worked out pretty good when I did retire. Finacnciallynot a problem and I know I am in a lucky position. I worried that I would miss the interaction with patientsand...

I don't like it, prefer a paper statement, just my preference, but why ask me and then impose it regardless?

A few months ago my bank contacted me and asked if I wanted to go 'paperless' and receive my statements on line. After much consideration I informed them that the system we have been using for the last forty years was pretty good and I would like them to continue sending me a monthly statement...

Was working there when it happened, made me cringe at the time. Tried to subversively re name it the 'Major Tom' ward.

They were great, used to open a tin after I got back from school, thought I was imagining it!!!

Asda used to do a duck and cherry pate, loved it.

Sausage rolls in a tin, or have I imagined that?

Its usually a popular show with plenty of interesting cars. Always worth a visit.

Also the lazy bastards who never put there bin outside of their own house but put it front of someone else's, then leave it there for days after it has been emptied. Put your bin outside of your fucking house, not mine!!

It was fantastic, some of the best food I have ever eaten. Very impressed and will certainly go again. Good portion sizes too.

Off to the Gourmet Food Kitchen at Fargo Village tonight. Heard so many good things about it, looking forward to it.

Dead badgers by the roadside. Never ever used to see this but in the last two years or so seems to be happening all the time.. What is going on?

Radio 5. Must have been said before.

Maybe Sainsbury's felt they could not trust the council to keep their word and stick to any agreement reached so decided to dig their heels in. Just a thought.

I heard that when all of that development was being sorted the council tried to get Sainsbury's to move another location in the City but they refused as they said that it was one of the most profitable shops they had in the country and it was down to it's location. The council then threatened...
