There are certain insurance companies that are refusing to insure anyone over 70 now. Or quoting such a ridiculously high price that they know won't be accepted.

Glad you're old?  ;D

Less than three hundred quid a year/10,000 miles sounds OK to me.  :y

Pressure washing the paths and patio is a quite satisfying job.  :y

But then you get the water bill!  :o  Which is why I only do it every other year.  ::)  ;D

Read summat tother day that actually boiled my piss >:(

Bicyclists and motorbicyclists are actively encouraged to swerve around anything in the road that might make them fall off regardless of the fact that the reason they haven't spotted said anything is because they're either speeding/tailgating/filtering (whatever the fruck that's supposed to be...  :-X) and drivers are taught to expect all of the above and make allowances for all of it at the same time.

Yet...

If a car drivers even thinks to make such an avoiding manoeuvre they risk being prosecuted for careless driving with a ridiculous fine and potentially lose their licence. Presumably if you crash as a result of ripping a wheel off in a pothole the size of Birmingham whilst trying to avoid splatting a filtering motorbicyclist you get charged with careless driving for the whole thing.

I understand that being unlicensed and uninsured vermin, bicyclists are basically untouchable, but having presumably passed some sort of test aren't motorbicyclists held to the same account as any other driver ??? In which case what's good for the goose and all that.

Aaaaand breath......      ;D

Forgot to put my garden bin out last night.  :(

Now I have to waste a few hours bagging the contents and taking it to the tip.  >:(

Despite having to pay council tax of over £1600 pa ( which to me only covers having the bins emptied) we now have to pay extra (cant remember how much - circa £75 pa) to have our garden waste bin emptied. >:( >:(
I think our council tax came through the other day, £2800 I think, to empty the bins 26 times unless there is a hint of wintery weather...

Our green bin was around £40 since they started charging, but doubled this year, no doubt to help pay for the bone idle lame and lazy.

And, despite charging us 2800/26 = >£100 each time they empty our bins, they want to either half our bin sizes, or move to collection every 3 weeks.  Knowing West Northants council, former South Northants council before they blew all their money on a new office block and went bankrupt, they'll do both.

Yep they can only be bothered to empty the bins once a month and the plebs are living in the potholes, but they have plenty of cash for rainbow pedestrian crossings which are spreading round the country like a rash!  ::)
Not in Barnsleywakefield they're not.

Not yet, it will happen though as it's a box to tick.  Every city, town, and village will have one eventually.  :)

On a broader front, I wonder if the tide is turning on these woke lefty types? ???   :-\

We've seen Jacinda Ardern in New Zealand resign, then Wee Kranky went, and now Verruca. Who's next?  Canada's Trudeau?  ???

Looks like he wanted to change the wording of the constitution so as to be more gender neutral and inclusive.

Apparently words such as family, mother, and woman are outdated and offensive to some in 2024. ::)

But fortunately the Irish people told him to go f*uck himself

He's probably got 'Big Winston' on speed dial so doesn't need to.  ::)
