Beer. Bristolian.

@createstreets The very definition of comparing apples to oranges.

@LostTransport @thesundaysport Many such places of course, but leading directly off the city centre of Bristol is the pre-Victorian road…

@Shiv_who_burns Mine arrived from HMRC at 07.48 am on Monday! I thought it was a scam at first.

They can wait until next January like normal.

@ASPolice Did he shoot himself? Did the gun misfire and injure him? Was the man in hospital in fact “shot”? It’s not really clear is it? All those scenarios fit within your statement.
What’s wrong with saying the man was shot? So we’re all clear.

@Scott_Wortley I guess is that what they really want to do (the complex bits that would meet resistance in the Lords) is in the second paragraph of the BBC’s report; whereas the simple version is to address Mandelson only.

1) Open a bank account
2) Deposit £10k

[Rob Moore @robprogressive]

Bank 10K by the end of Jan doing this

@PrometheusCHT @PrometheusAM If it’s a yes no question: then - yes - it does undermine the criticism. You specifically picked on the bbc as an example, yet they are leading with the story!
There’s plenty to criticise them for lately but perhaps too early to do so on this subject.

[David Bird @davidjbird8000]

@anyabike @Barristerblog Seems notable that no paragraph number is given for the position of the alleged quotation in the judgment referred to.

[David Bird @davidjbird8000]

So a Toyota RAV4 PHEV (which I always wanted but couldn’t afford) will probably do about 500 miles on a tank of petrol. Of which about 45 miles max might be on electric.
So that owner will pay £7.50 per 500miles under the new proposals….

The Clifford family gave more than most.

@createstreets @SCP_Hughes @boys_nicholas Part O doesn’t say the window must be 1.1m from the floor, it says the guarding must be. So a Juliet balcony with the correct balustrade is legal in England isn’t it?

[David Bird @davidjbird8000]

@Dan_YIMBY @createstreets The height of the barrier needs to be 1.1m not the window cill.

[David Bird @davidjbird8000]

@Dan_YIMBY @createstreets Provided the balustrade is high enough and the glass of sufficient r-value, it can be built.
That’s what I took from that substack.

[David Bird @davidjbird8000]

@twlldun Speaking of numbers that make you go hang on that doesn’t sound right? Assuming people aren’t having more than one a day, that’s 1 in 35 people having an xray every day.

[David Bird @davidjbird8000]

@LUDENClassics Funnily enough, a degree of similarity.

[David Bird @davidjbird8000]

@sigourneybeaver Sorry for answering your question by not really answering it!
I bought a random pair once from somewhere like Sports Direct and was off the road for months recovering!

[David Bird @davidjbird8000]

@sigourneybeaver The wrong shoes, for me, would cause ankle/knee/hip/shin pain (*delete as appropriate!)
I would only now buy from an independent running specialist. My local one will give guidance on the arch support I need and try any number. I can return them if not worn outside.
