Invaluable if I ever have things to do in the real world where the temperature suggests trousers are appropriate, but my day includes a visit to the tropical sweat box that is my parents’ house... saves having to take a pair of shorts to change into

Isolate the power and then remove with needle nose pliers. Or if its below the surface you will need to take the outlet off the wall and may need a replacement if you can't get it.

Buy a new socket and replace it, wont cost much I imagine.
Or get an electrician in to replace it. If you are not electric friendly then it is money well spent rather than killing yourselfHaving a plug socket with a broken prong of a plug stuck in it.
. All depends how handy you are, electrics terrify me.

Had one a couple of months back, just disconnect and remove the socket then it'll come out from behind easy enough with needlenose pliers

Parents that go away on holiday and then abandon any responsibility for their kids. Just come back from a week at a Searles resort and the amount of unsupervised kids was unbelievable. Groups of young kids, all under 10, walking around alone at 11pm is just wrong IMO.

Footballers complaining about the abuse they get on social media. Do they not realise people see them abusing the match officials constantly and think it must be ok as they do it?

Surprised you're allowed in! 48 hours symptom free is the rule here!
On a project regarding training audit and so can hot desk in my old HR and recruitment stomping ground which is a separate building and no patient contact and can eat at a separate facility so management have deemed it as a minimal risk and given me the OK. Add in we then get pinged for sickness and short term absences and I'd rather be in and not have the hassle of return to work interviews etc

Oh, absolutely. I've had people reporting to me in the past that I feel are lying to me about how long they've been symptom free so they can return early. Not a lot you can do!

Minor, I know, in the scheme of things, but frustrated at this "keyless" situation with new cars.
Why are car manufacturers so hell bent on offering "keyless only" on some models.
They know, we know, everybody knows that those cars are being stolen so easily; all relevant agencies are reporting dramatic increases in car theft and it being down to the ease with which such cars can be taken.
Why don't they offer options to have keys?
You can talk about all the prevention measures available to the car owner; Faraday cages etc, but it is unfathomable to me why the manufacturers do nothing.?
There's talk of the fob "going to sleep" when not in use, but it seems not to be forthcoming.
When my wife was looking for a new car, we told a number of dealers as soon as we were told the model was keyless, that we would not be interested in buying,because of that. You would think that they may wonder how many more like us were not buying because of keyless , and so they would have a rethink?
I read today that it may soon get to the point where insurance companies will charge more, or refuse cover etc. for having a keyless model.
As I say, why the stubbornness of the makers to insist on keyless or nothing for certain models?
Anyone in the industry know?
