I might start some campaign of my own, just so I can start selling even more ID cards.

I enjoy having fun on the other topics, I do agree that if they wind you up you should stay off of them no point in increasing blood pressure.

Tier Level Cards.
Given the ever changing system, there's a fortune to be made.
Especially if you need a new card when the tier you're in changes.

Yes, me too, for the most part, I find it quite amusing, but, I am wasting too much time on it.

It's not the only way. I like my Stanley travel mug french press coffee just as much. I just had to give this a try and I 'll te

ll you what...that coffee is strong. I use a light roast so it isn't bitter but it could raise the dead.
Got back from my little ride and took the Aged Terrier for her walk and came home from that to be greeted by the delicious aroma of a freshly baked pecan pie. It will go well with the green chili and mushroom meatloaf, scalloped taters and sauteed carrots. Here's a pic of the pie.

People who want to bicker about brexit should be locked in a room together with an assortment of weapons. Whoever walks out the door alive an hour later should be thrown down a well, which is then filled with concrete.

If people don’t want people to talk about brexit perhaps it might be better if they didn’t keep bringing it up on here. I have very strong views about the s@@t fest that is brexit and the lies and cheating that has taken us to this point in time . I don’t feel the need to post it on here !!!!
In my view ,people that think brexit is unimportant should be locked in a room with an assortment of weapons. Whoever walks out the door alive should be thrown down a well , which is then filled with concrete because they are the reason we are in this crap fest.
Now that is my first and last comment on this subject .
I really hope this thread can go back to being it’s being it’s normal good natured place , full of good gentle joshing . Please leave politics at the door on your way in . 🙁

I am drinking coffee. The local weather station reading is saying minus 4 yet I can't see frost on the cars. Weird. It was like that one day last week too. Must have been more of an air frost. It felt bitterly cold yet the ground wasn't frosty?

Hello the house !!!
Coffee has been consumed.
Sat in conservatory listening to Tony B with SoTS...... I know, its a bit of a ritual.
TBH I am knackered. I only got up for a pee and found it was 0615......that was a bit of a surprise.
Got a headache and very runny nose (where I come from that's called a snotty conk).......had 2 tablets and sure that will do the trick.
Yesterday was weird for me. Was up at 0400 but didn't go back to bed. Had my (now) usual hour on the couch around 1700 then bed around 2200.
Have a good day folk
By the way @PaulSB I just read that TIER 5 might be coming to Lancashire .
