The deposit money has been borrowed from the seller by the purchaser to pay the deposit? -

Why would the seller lend the buyer money? 🤔 -
Sobering.... https://www.independent.co.uk/news/health/coronavirus-deaths-uk-outside-hospital-care-home-latest-a9463621.html 2000 poor souls in care homes not worth as much as a stat from this government. Still 1000s of care workers without correct PPE..

Le Mans 66 I like a bit of racing but certainly no expert on its history..this was really good, Bale is great as the unlikely Brummie protagonist Ken Miles who ended up in the US motor sport hall of fame and who had also had driven a tank on to a Normandy beach on D day. Brilliant evocative 60s design, especially of Le Mans & Daytona tracks/pit etc đź‘Ť -
That would be a good question in normal times but we’re in far from normal times...that question is fuckin suicide inside a fortnight for Starmer because of CV; a prolonged bout of naval gazing for Labour during the worst global crisis since world war 2 is just what the Tories want. Leave it Keir, concentrate on the Tory’s handling of CV after Parliament returns after Easter (they shouldn’t have risen in the fuckin first place but there you go..)

An Ulsterman preaching caution & cool headedness in Politics. I didn't think Spring 2020 could have any more surprising news but I was wrong... Best way I can sum this up is that I feel like I've been here before, and for that reason am out đź‘Ť

About as much as staying in iyam. Both pointless gestures till this all plays out, if it ever does. I was hoping Starmer might be the 21st century John Smith but I think judging by the stage that both the PLP & the membership are at he's only Neil Kinnock
-
No. He’s a decent man but the membership largely fuckin hate him and the likes of Unite & Momentum will attempt to do to him what some staffers did to Corbyn. It’s not worth the bother of another half decade of blood letting just to see the tories returned yet again

“Timing”.....

I’ve cancelled my LP direct debit this morning. I can’t in all conscience sit with that set of utter cunts. Some half decent people involved no doubt but the tribalism is nauseating. As a new member I wasn’t even allowed to attend meetings of the local party when they were discussing who to support for leader. This was made quite clear in FOUR emails. They can all fuck off.

2005? everyone pictured is now either a chartered accountant or a lawyer

Sounds canny...what was rock climbing like when you were full of Moroccan?

They are the only ones who sprang to mind at this time they did a track where they sampled John Pertwee as Dr Who banging on about kinetic energy...can’t remember its name but it’s was chemically implanted into my brain more than 25 years ago

No not come across that..we were mostly Glastonbury etc, went to a couple of Spiral Tribe things.. my mates were the ones the local crusties would sometimes go to for gear. That’s how I fell in with them for a bit. They were a good crowd but there were a couple of things that happened in 94ish that made me fuck off to the US for a bit . When I came back I didn’t see as much of that crowd..as you say, if you’re into that sort of thing nowadays or can remember being so inclined the current situation is possibly the worst of all worlds. There again, as the current Mrs PL has wisely stated, who is best suited to lockdown than Gen Xers? brought up to make your own fun but also more than capable of sitting in the house doing fuck all smoking draw and watching shit telly?

No idea what you mean...

I was a bit like that too...I’d pretty much taken early retirement from football by 92/93 though + had moved down south...I was bang into running around fields, old houses, beaches etc, anywhere with a beat. Knew it wasn’t for me long term and by 95 I was back in the fold..

Stirling Moss, 90

Yeah. Your cities may have fewer people (population) but I don’t think the density within them would be much less? Having more cities is the key to that point or am I as usual displaying my appalling ignorance of how these things work?
-
Aye Wiltshire police + reinforcements just turned up and totalled virtually every vehicle in the field & anyone who put up a fight got the same.I’m of the opinion that this order came from very high up indeed, the miners strike had just finished and the home office & police were emboldened to think that they could do precisely what they wanted and get away with it. Travellers limped on for a few years after but this was the turning point. I saw their “last stand” at Glastonbury 1993 when on the Sunday night they turned all the stalls in the market area over. Eavis had let them in for nothing as usual but by then they were mostly a bunch of desperate pricks. Criminal Justice Act a year later saw most of them off the road for good

As for the media, they’re not worth a fuckin wank. We all know that obvs but still....
