Our glorious leader is about to lock us all down again, according to the BBC. Get your toilet rolls in

£4000+ for what will be a 'five minute wonder' is very expensive.

A couple of sweaty work outs and it will take it's place next to the never used sandwich toaster.

.......and teasmaid......George Formby Grill...............

What if the "baddies" google the reg of the bentley , find this thread, work out who you are 
they will read your other posts, find you own an omega 

best drop the Omega round to me to look after Lizzie 

    No chance Dave!

Don't worry either, no serious drug dealer would drive around in an un-MOT'd Bentley and not pay to have it made legal for the road

Most of the numpties who transport class A for a living drive a wreck which is ripe for a tug, speed everywhere or don't wear a seatbelt. I would drive a euro shitbox hybrid or the like and obey the rules of the road. Least you can do when you have folk relying on you delivering efficiently and on time.

Facebook wasn't the source

Although the Daily Wire is arguably more reliable than the Grandiad...

Covid numbers are pretty much the same across the board... There's a comparison between the US and Europe, theirs are marginally better than Europe as a whole.

And their economy is recovering more quickly than ours inspite of being in the same boat with Batflu. So he can't be doing that badly.

Did you actually read my last post? What has Europe or anywhere else got to do with it? And the economy, who said anything about that?

Headline numbers are all well and good, but compare their numbers with greater Europe

You are a typical Trump supporter, aren't you? Change the metrics to make it a different argument.
Donald Trump lied about the figures in the USA, which is what I said. I didn't mention comparisons to any other region or country, so what has any other country got to do with it?

And the Republican governor of Texas doing everything in his power to stop the black and Hispanic voters (the majority in that state, and the majority in the US in 25 years) from getting to cast their vote. It beggars belief, it really does. They are no better, in fact they are worse, than the countries they accuse of fixing the outcome.


That's both parties, btw, I'm not taking sides.

Apologies for the faceache link

No need to apologise, I certainly won't bother reading anything on Facebook.

No one is silent in that cesspit, it's the shoutiest place on earth. You reckon the rest of the world is in trouble if Biden wins, I reckon the world is in deep shit, full stop, and America is only adding to that shit. Give it 10/20 years and the good old US of A will implode and I, for one, will be glad to see the back of it.

The USA, a true democracy. Not like some small African country where, on the result of an election being released, the defeated party cries foul and takes to the streets to murder, burn and loot.
Why, then, have Walmart removed all the guns on display to the back of the store? (It still amazes me you can buy a gun with your breakfast cereal). Why are stores ordering in ply to shutter up on the days the result is known?
It may not happen, but the fact that it can even be imagined is a portent of the way America is going. Xi must be pissing himself.

Mostly because every time someone who shouldn't probably have access to anything pointier than a biro insists on committing suicide by law enforcement, BLM and Antifa insist on peaceful protest wanton rioting and looting in the face of lefty mayors not standing up to them.

Eventually the silent majority will bite back.

What's to get excited about? A bit of dinner (which I have to cook) and shite telly for about two weeks. There are some, I suppose, who like repeats of Morcambe and Wise.
