  1. It's also a song from a 1950s musical...so maybe it was an earworm.
  2. There was also a mine called "Ohio" in East Baldwin. Lots of rivers and creeks there too.
  3. Ohio means good river", "great river", or "large creek". As it happens, this plantation is next to such.
  4. All too many on here seem to be missing the elephant in the room. Shipping costs...the Steam Packet have just announced another 5% raise for this year. Plus there's always been a requirement to double-handle the movement of containers unloaded here. And empty containers heading back to the UK don't pay their way. Every little rise doesn't help. But can surely explain some of these differentials?
  5. Sorry to dissapoint most Christians in this thread, but Jebus is slightly darker than Robert Powell.
  6. The war needs to stop (ceasefire), Netanyahu needs voting out and taken out the picture and the UN needs to be firm on a 2 state solution and land boundaries (including deploying UN troops to police it). Failure to do that, given all the suffering and acrimony, means Hamas will have recruited another 300,000 in 20 years (most of them just kids currently). And off they go again in 20 years. Plus other shit kicking off till then. Most people are not anti-semetic, they're anti-Netanyahu.
  7. This is becoming more and more of a common landlord practice here. Stand your ground.
  8. Small claims court, present your own evidence?
  9. ...and there's been a few of them eh? ...know what I mean?
  10. 🤣 He sure looks and sounds the part. Though I'll let you tell him that.
  11. Hyphenated names infer indecision.
  12. So are all the English, Scots etc. English is just badly spoken French.
  13. Thanks...but I only want to ring them once.
  14. All fly shit compared to what's actually needed here.
  15. We need a new town, large village. Plenty of space to plant one. relatively out of sight.
  16. Shoddy. Look at them, year on year. Need another 5000 properties here. All types...but at least 1000 apartments. 2000 × 2 bedroom... plus. Demand is there, supply not.
  17. Not really. That's what most of us are complaining about...government strangling supply.
  18. It used to be alternative governments...Conservative and Labour and boom, bust, boom. bust. Now it's alternative governments...Conservative and Labour and bust, bust, bust. bust.
  19. I can't see the Tories doing that...it'll lead straight to another Liz Truss type collapse. Labour might increase NI after a couple of years under the excuse that they'll ring-fence it, but I could see Labour extending the NI threshold of £44k ish to maybe £50k or £60k.
