  1. Surely driving while impaired is still an offence, regardless of the source of whatever drug.
  2. The car park being rammed long predates the death of Shoprite. We'll see how much difference the new store opening makes in due course.
  3. Much as they'd like it to be, the internet is not for the thin skinned.
  4. You'd hope this would make it easier for customers to get near the car park on Lake Road, but I doubt it will. Strangely, this always seems to be packed to the gunwales 9-5 every weekday, even when the store itself doesn't seem commensurately busy. It's almost as if a bunch of selfish chunts are just taking advantage of the free parking. (See also Nobles Hospital...)
  5. The hypocritical prick was quick enough to raise the subject in public in the first place, though. I'm actually toying with moving to Ramsey just so I can not vote for him come the next election.
  6. How to Block Ads on YouTube
  7. "Chat GPT, write me a 200-page AI strategy containing enough management buzzwords and pretty pictures to pull the wool over the eyes of a bunch of incompetent civil servants." That'll be £300k, please.
  8. This reminds me of a comment (maybe in Private Eye, I'm not sure) along the lines of: "Princess Diana has been described as the best-looking woman in the Royal Family, which is a bit like being the best football team in Alaska."
  9. A Doctor's Despair: An anthology including poems by Dr Clare Craig, Matt Le Tissier and Doc Malik
  10. In this case, "peer reviewed" simply means written by charlatans and reviewed by other charlatans.
  11. Yes, so best cover up the camera on your device too. Nobody wants to see you on the toilet!
  12. Is that right? Dr Sarah Myhill must have quite the chestful of medals then... Covid: Powys doctor given nine-month ban for false claims A tale as old as time - a quack peddling overpriced supplements of no medical value to the gullible.
  13. You must be new here.
  14. In the UK there's a sliding scale whereby you lose £1 of the tax-free allowance for every £2 in excess of £100k. Under that system anyone earning over £129k would lose the allowance entirely,
  15. It was more an expression of my (lack of) surprise at those conclusions than anything else.
  16. I'm more of a misanthrope myself: basically, I just hate everyone.
  17. By the way, love, it's "misogyny"
  18. You half-expect this attitude from some posters, sadly, but it's pretty poor optics from an MHK!
  19. At first glance, though, the report's recommendations tell a slightly different story...
  20. And the first rude sketch that the world had seen was joy to his mighty heart, Till the Devil whispered behind the leaves, “It’s pretty, but is it Art?” - Rudyard Kipling
  21. You're right, of course, my mistake. Braddan ratepayers must be shitting themselves now.
  22. I never said it wasn't. As are the rates, unfortunately.
  23. As opposed to Braddan's 10.1% Just imagine what it would have been if Douglas hadn't saved all that money by increasing recycling and moving to fortnightly bin collections, eh?
  24. Paraphrasing only slightly: "Yeah, we've already spent it, but if you approve it retrospectively then we'll actually be UNDER budget. Aren't we wonderful!" Oh, to live in their world...
