... The above is worth a read. If you want to know why we have to import so much of our food (46% last year, most European countries are less than 10%), then this is why - Supermarkets call ALL the shots.

... how much packaging McDonald's goes through every single minute..!!! Which apparently amounts to just under two million tonnes per year. Staggering! Can't really blame McDonald's, they've been taking a decent stab at changing their business practices in order to be more eco-friendly....and ...

... indeed, and goes around the roundabout the wrong way!! 100% expecting exactly this from James when I have the challenge of teaching him in a few years. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk It’s definitely taking all my experience and skills as a workplace trainer/assessor to stay calm and ...

Warranty refund for my mountain bike saddle. 2 year warranty, it broke at 1 year 51 weeks and they refunded no questions asked!

... profits are 2.5million with more than that in the bank. Their assets are similar to that albeit they've invested over 7mil on new machines this year already but now they're not even letting people order a set of sidecutters to do some wiring maintenance jobs. A lot of things are not adding up ...

... Apparently there's a big problem looming in the mortgage and housing markets. Mortgage arrears jumped by 13% in the second quarter of the year to the highest level since 2016, according to Bank of England figures that underscore the stress in the UK mortgage market

Impressive. That's more in a day than I've done in a year on my bike.

Pushbike 27 miles on Saturday and 36 Sunday
16 mph avg not bad haven’t ridden for a year
Wrists were agony towards the end

Gave the kwak a once over belt the service tomorrow.

... ;) ) ? I had it about 5 weeks ago. Not very pleasant. I get the feeling we are going to be in for a tough winter with it with only over 65 year olds getting a booster and there being no commercial booster options available.

That was a tough week and what a way to celebrate 1 year there. On the second solo day the VP was pressing me for on time delivery of documents and implementation of products for their latest client, this is the guy who manages my boss and he absolutely ...

That's a nice position to be in. I'm riding our the current mortgage crisis and paying for my daughter to go to university. This year is her last so I'll be ok from June next year. The next few months are going to be rough but I've got a home, clothes and food in my belly. Sadly there's ...

EON have announced first half year profits of £4.8bn

I get that occasionally. You eaten something unusual? I get it when I’m allergic to something. I had the exact same thing happen a year or two ago. For the life of me I can't remember what it was I had eaten, but I do remember that it was something I hadn't tried before (and won't again). ...
