I have quit a lot of jobs, but meal planning/meal types have never been the reason.

One place you don't want to live during a postal workers strike is across the street from a sorting facility.

In 2016 the House of Commons approved a measure to ask the Honours Forfeiture Committee to strip Green of his knighthood. He still has it.
Is there a more unpleasant, crooked shit in the UK?

So, we are to believe that a witness accepted a payment that may have enabled a victim to bring criminal proceedings because they believed that taking the money was preferable to seeing him prosecuted?

I appreciate that when you feel strongly about a particular personality you become somewhat blinkered but, at this time, he has not been charged with anything that relates to this accusations. Innocent until proven guilty and all that, or does that only apply to people that you like?

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
 

Protected only if you have millions of dosh to pay people off. Forgive me if I dislike someone like him.

As for me feeling strongly, better placed people than me, more people than me, have looked at the facts - remember that, because you always emphasise the facts of a case rather than media reports - and recommended he be stripped of his knighthood.

Which meal and how big is it ? I've tried 16:8 and liked it, but every once in a while breakfast calls and it's pretty tough to be so regulated.

Not the American military, they have Burger Kings at their bases.

He did say when at war which I assume is what theatre means.

But the bases can be sweet. I used to know a girl who was in the Navy in San Diego and back then (maybe still) active duty could bring guests onto the base.

Basically little city with most amenities of the outside world.

This was one of the larger bases in the naval fleet so it might have more vs a smaller base.

I meant those bases in Afghanistan and Iraq !

Dinner. Eat as much as you want and whatever you want between 5pm - 6pm and then fast for 23hrs. So much easier than worrying about what you can or cannot eat. I normally eat pretty good though, meat and veggies, plate of fruit, no processed food and I also take a multi vitamin supplement.

I was never fat but I was definitely carrying a spare tire. In the end I lost 40lb in 5 months, about 2lb a week. Now I only fast Mon - Fri and eat breakfast and lunch with the family on the weekend. When you think you are hungry, have a black coffee, works a treat.

Amazed sometimes how fast a cold comes on.

Wake up at 3am felt fine.

By 8am could feel illness coming on.

Now just sucky.

Shooting star this morning was pretty neat. It was a nice clear early morning. Pretty cool.

Yes, also nice to spot satellites and the ISS when it's passing over. When the ISS was new we used to track it on the internet and stand outside the bar with binoculars to watch it go by.

When I was growing up we would go to the desert and amazing how much you could see just 90 mins away from a major city and rarely a cloud so very clear. Was next.



In other topic, almost November and the north shore mountains are lacking snow. I though the last storm would bring some. Hopefully soon. They look much nicer with a snow cap.


Cant beleive its been 15 years. This was the worst fire I ever experiencdd in So. California. (San Diego)

Green does seem to be a shit but Hain's a grandstanding egomaniac. Green was only protected by an interim injunction, if the matter had been left alone for a week their might have been no injunction or a permanent one.That would have been decided taking into account the situation of those who entered into the agreements with Green.. If the latter then there's a case for using privilege to break it. As it is Hain was just rushing to get his name in the paper.

Probably a reaction for that bank robbery fit-up. :lol:

He makes it sound as if this is all news to him. Strange way to go about business, having £1m+ amounts paid out on one's behalf to a series of people who complained but knowing nothing about the complaint or the settlements.
