    Things that annoy you

    A person at our workplace got out of the Uber, went to the rear passenger door to get their bag out, and the c**t drover over her foot. Twice! We've reported him to Wolves CC and Uber plc.

    Parking Fine

    In general, new housing estates have a greater requirement for cycle storage spaces than car parking, but most will insist on two spaces off the road for a new house. However, land and house prices are such that the best way to get bang for your buck if you are a builder is to make the roads...

    Parking Fine

    Take a look at this link Q387: Can I park on the pavement? If the OP can demonstrate he wasn't creating an obstruction, and there is no TRO in force (doubtful unless you live withing two miles of the Ricoh), you should appeal.

    Much! Thanks. But seriously, what DID we say before? Was it just "story"???

    Things that annoy you

    People who use the term "back story" - where the hell has this term come from, all of a sudden? It wasn't in use until about a year ago, so why use it at all?

    Terror attack in Manchester?

    I think the key word is "and" at the end of the first bullet point. That is to say, while i agree about the "reaching wider spectrum, etc", it must also include political motivation. As i said earlier, I really do take your point about the guy terrorising people, but for it to be a "terrorist...

    Terror attack in Manchester?

    Undoubtedly, and i take your point, but that is NOT the definition of "terrorism" (according to the Terrorism Act 2000, which should be the proper definition). That requires that the use or threat is made for the purpose of advancing a political, religious, racist or ideological cause. Not just...

    Terror attack in Manchester?

    My apologies, i have seen a second photo of the incident with his face. I don't know why his leg is so pale if the face is genuine

    Terror attack in Manchester?

    I don't think the bloke's any more a terrorist than i am (i'm not, by the way!!). He's just deranged! People jumping to so many conclusions, and the hand-wringing on Twitter is unbelievable. No-one gives a shit if "your thoughts are with those affected". Jeee-zus!

    Terror attack in Manchester?

    If you look at the picture of him being detained, his left calf doesn't look very black to me. Does he identify as black, maybe???

    Terror attack in Manchester?

    Of course, a "racial cause" could be a white bloke wanting to stab people he think might be Islamic and out to do the country harm, so could still be defined as terrorism, though probably just a deluded basket case!

    Terror attack in Manchester?

    Absolutely - that was the point i was trying to make, 92! I was going to put "Allah" but thought that might be jumping to conclusions!

    Terror attack in Manchester?

    The definition of terrorism includes the requirement that "the threat is made for the purpose of advancing a political, religious, racial or ideological cause", rather than just being someone with an axe to grind or is having some kind of episode. But, sure, the ideology they espouse may well...

    Terror attack in Manchester?

    Those police vans can be very uncomfortable, i understand. Hope he doesn't come out with too many inexplicable bruises or broken bones!

    Terror attack in Manchester?

    Who said it was a terror attack? It's just as likely related to the fact there isn't another World Mental Health Day today!
