Does this mean you can finally get all the pot holes sorted for us next year? Or does the head need another pay rise? I hear he's not happy with his current deal, being paid more than the PM, despite managing one of the most economically poor areas of the country. I hate our council, and they won't let us break away either. Thornexit now! No offence, Wolfy. These problems were there long before you. I dont understand why Thornaby is part of Stockton. When nature gives you a natural boundary use it. |

I dont understand why Thornaby is part of Stockton. When nature gives you a natural boundary use it. The usual reason, money. On 'our' side of the river is Teesdale, Teesside Park and a hell of a lot of Council Tax payers (rather than those who have it paid for them*). Stockton would lose a whole chunk of their income if Thornaby went independent. * This is in no way a criticism of those people. |

Anyway, enough sixth form local government drivel, we've cleared out the rest of the box.
Game chat, go!

Nope, it's law throughout the EUROPEAN UNION that you must carry a driving license with an accurate photo of yourself ... and as said driving license is a 2 part document they can require you to present your sorry arse at a fuzz box with both sections to see if you have any fresh endorsements...
It is not two part. The counterpart was abolished on 8 June 2015. There is no need to carry your licence with you. You can present it later. True, I see, in the UK; but in France, where they carry guns... www.justlanded.com/english/France/Articles/Travel-Leisure/Traffic-Police ... I stopped driving in 2013 when my feet got so bad I couldn't guarantee I could do a decent emergency stop; I've just given my Polo to next door's girl. It would only get £2-300 and they help me out when I need it. |

I think Werther's Originals are the usual sweet of choice, polos are more for horses.

Octopath Traveller- I’m now (nearly)finished chapter two for four of the eight characters - just have Olberic final battle. Already having to grind a bit between fights, but I’m loving it! The story takes some dark turns at times, prostitution, human trafficking and blood sacrifices- so far! Apropos the story, I was curious to check the game's PEGI rating. Turns out that it's 12, with a somehow incongruous description: Seems there's a lot you can get away with if you use cutesy sprites in your game (although I can't really think of any 12 year-olds who would want to play this). |

No time for games. Dinner was roasted duck legs with rice, gravy and roasted butternut squash, accompanied by a Perdeberg Cinsault. Just to give Mr Tent Rooster something to remember when he washes down the frozen lasagne with a glass of tears.
Also watched Christmassy Ted. You've reminded me that 'tis the season.

Doesn't Amipal leave near enough to fly drones near a certain area AND have the technical camera knowledge for snapping certain types of transport?
Hmmm, another case solved Holmes....
