But do you need a better car?

Most cars get you from A to B safely and in the dry.

"Better" cars just do it with more gizmos and might earn some admiring glances in the car park, if that's your thing.

(In case you can't tell, I drive an ordinary car)
It's like playing with Dunlops from Argos as opposed to playing the latest set from Mizuno...both get the ball around the course, but we all know what we'd like to be seen taking to the first!

So pleased with the outcome of the infected blood scandal inquiry. One of our rollup group Mike Dorricott was a victim and campaigner and since his passing his family have continued the fight - and look at the date of the article - March 2015🙁). A group of members and the club have put up a trophy in his memory. Thinking of you today Mike.

Unbelievably France had the same issues and sorted it in the 90's.

Tesco changing their own brand kids paracetamol flavour from strawberry to cherry

Thank you 😊

My kids are allergic to strawberry because of my wife. It sucks and blooming hard to find strawberry free kids medicine.. Calpol is strawberry so their switch to cherry for own brand really saves me going to the one pharmacy in the area (15 min drive rather than the 3 that are a 5 min walk) to get the stuff (if they have ofc)

Thanks Tesco!

At last a nice drop of proper rain, amazing how dry my garden was.
I have been watering for about 3 weeks.
Changed a big container yesterday and found it totally dry, about 3 feet of soil in a yard square pot.

On a similar line, about 45 years ago I bought my first ever Kentucky Fried Chicken, and bit into the toughest piece of gristle imaginable.

It might have been a one-off, but I've never darkened their door again.
Agree. It's grim stuff.

General Election called for 4th July.
I will be out of the country on holiday, so won't feel obliged to choose between several lying scumbags. Result!

(And no, I can't be bothered to request a postal vote, seeing as I don't feel that any of the candidates deserve my vote).

Agree, it is a bit of a "which is the least crap" option

About 35/37 years ago someone in the office bought me a Macdonalds. One bite only, I did not swallow, and nothing from that establishment has passed my lips since apart from two coffees on seperate occasions in Florida. Yeukkk!!!
