Hyundai Ioniq To my untrained eye, this looks like a bit of a deal? I'm just at the point where I'm 'looking' which by previous experience involves 6 months of forensic searching out of all deals and all specs on all car brands. Followed by waking up one morning and randomly buying a used black Mercedes from the choices on the forecourt of a main dealer.

I've got a mate who has worked his way up to being a primary school head and it turns out he has a flair for it. He's currently head of one and also acting head of another that had been failing. His wife is my wife's friend and she is a deputy head at a local school and it suits her to stay there in that post as it's a good job walking distance from home. Suffice to say, between them they earn over £100K a year. They enjoy it, it's not an easy job and it's not 9 til 5. But they were never ever going to be 9 til 5 people. I have three other friends that are or were teachers, one has retired early having had his arm broken by a comp pupil. One finds it a doddle, one finds it hard but rewarding. All five have social lives. Two of them are coming out with me in a couple of weeks time, for three consecutive nights of gigs. It's not easy and it's not a life of misery.

Is the Trump armada off the coast of North Korea yet....? Of course not, it's gone to Australia. The man's a tool.

She's not a quick thinker, she can't 'debate' without falling back very quickly on bad 'jokes' that make no sense outside of having a hundred lapdog MP's to drown out the confused silence with their strained shouty laughter noise. She has facial ticks and grimaces that make her a dream for anyone with a decent camera that wants that 'bacon sandwich' moment. She's lucky the majority of the media choose not to do that to the PM they currently believe they can influence. She has changed her mind and broken clear recent promises. She's tried to make a virtue of being a 'straight' vicars daughter. She has a parliamentary track record of voting against the tide of inclusive public opinion on anything broadly diverse. She has been outed as an opportunist with a fantasy story of a united country and saboteurs wrecking brexit from within parliament (the facts couldn't point to the opposite any more clearly). The woman would be mad to go head to head in a TV debate. Not so much a problem with Corbyn, she can just point out he's Corbyn as per her usual tactic. But imagine her ability to field a question or a challenge from some other leader. She'd have nothing but a grimace and a graceless half arsed insult. Let the print media handle the message on her behalf. Let Kuenssberg and Robsinson give her uninterrupted air time on BBC radio. That's a much better plan. I eagerly await the R4 morning interview with any other political leaders to see if they are given the same uninterrupted air time she was given this morning. In my experience the usual Robinson technique is to ask a question, then start talking again three words in to the respondents answer. To give an air of interrogation and cutting journalism. This morning they might just as well have announced a speech by the PM and given her control of the power point remote. Not that that's the best tool for radio, but you catch my drift.

I can't fault the sentiment, and there's a very good chance I will indeed vote Labour (should they come up with a credible candidate here). But I'd have to pick you up on the worst tories in living memory bit. I remember my town being closed down by the bastards and the police being given a political mandate to disrupt my day to day life, confiscate my shoe laces and give my car a 'spot' MOT every time I drove at night. They closed the docks as a political act, they closed the factories as a political act, they emboldened the police to get in our faces in an attempt to provoke a reaction. Unfortunately, the state of Labour here, a previously Labour seat, is such that they don't currently have a 'candidate in waiting' and the local Labour Club has re branded itself as a folk music venue. But genuinely good on you for the sentiment.

all manner of places, it really is as flippantly simple as googling PCH but this site is quite good for getting a starting idea of what costs what... Car Leasing

Barista Visas? Let them drink tea!

Sounds perfectly reasonable, but not quite what my understanding of suicide doors was. I thought that with the doors hinged to the middle of the car then if something hit the door, it smashed it shut, potentially with you in the act of getting in or out. Whereas, a car clipping your front hinged door just rips the door off. But essentially the same message.

Big market, Turkey. Sort of place we need to be cosying up to post Brexit. A special deal on visas and who knows, they might set up a Beko fridge freezer production line here somewhere.

To set the scene for yesterday's game - when Town were going down the toilet a few years ago, Risca Utd brought along a banner that read 'bye bye, Risca seagulls shit on Barry Island'. This season, Risca are bottom of the league and already mathematically relegated. They have clearly gone in to money saving mode and were playing 3 or 4 of their academy kids. In a freak incident during the game yesterday there was a clash between a Risca defender and his own goalkeeper that resulted in the GK being subbed off. No first choice 'keeper and a bunch of kids. So, with no love lost between the clubs, and the potential of goal difference being like an extra point: 11:0 .... eleven **** nil. If anything it killed the atmosphere, only revived on the 9th goal going in and people chanting 'we want ten'. Absolute scenes. Most other teams and we'd have probably soft peddled from half time rather than risk an injury ahead of Tuesday evening's game. Due to the goal difference, we probably only need 2 points from our last three games. 3 points from 3 games and guaranteed promotion.

I'd be up for it if I had my faculties. If I knew what was going on it would be fantastic. If you just spent 20 or 30 years being fed liquidised food and having your arsed wiped then not so much.

It's the 'christian values' of the 'traditional conservative' where you wear your best hat and gloves to church and aspire to be the most conformist straight stick up the arsed person there. You take a pound out from your Vitton designer purse and roll it across your designer gloved fingers before dropping it on to the collection plate for the poor. The sort of vicar's daughter's values that give you chills, as you wonder about the lost morals of the National Trust, whilst happily selling bombs to murderous middle eastern despots.

It would be a shame if their stuff is old or fake and we can't sell them anything.

Big few days coming up for my local lot. The maths are set up that with 4 games of the season left, 2 wins means certain promotion, 3 wins means promoted as champions. We've a home game tomorrow against the team relegated and bottom of the league (yep, that's got banana skin written all over it) then another home game Tuesday evening against a mid table team with nothing much to play for, they're going to finish somewhere between 8th n 12th. If we get promoted, that'll be 3 promotions in 4 seasons since being fan owned. Not too shabby.

Found a great new location for my meth lab. Completely normal suburban house, knocking out kilo’s of the stuff from a facility we’ve excavated under the garden. Had to dig out the garden when the east European knocking shop expanded in to the attic. Couple of false walls and you wouldn’t even know it was there. Clean it up once in a while for the ‘inspection’ and job’s a good ‘un.

How the world loves a charismatic strong man. It's weird, human development. How we can consider flight to Mars and discover graphene, yet so many just want to fall in behind the biggest baddest ape and be told what to do.
