It was only when we got off the bus in Paignton that we heard that England had won, I was just 11 at the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horizondave Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Was looking at sites on Google for buying/leasing cars, I was not logged into my Google account at the time, i had logged out. I then go onto Facebook and every other advert is now a car dealership offer for leasing or buying a car, this is the first time I have been seeing these type of ads. So even logging out of Google still seems to direct adverts to my Facebook account. I don't suffer from big brother syndrome but thought it funny what info they pick up about me when online.

I was also 11 at the time and watched it at home with Dieter and Helmut , 2 German engineers who were lodging at our house, they had come from Germany to carry out maintenance on Machinery at Lever Bros factory where my dad worked, I can still smell the Gitanes they used to smoke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was 11 and I did shed a tear when the 4th goal went in. But that was nothing compared to when Bobby Charlton scored with that long shot against Mexico in the group stages. Really cried with happiness when that one went in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horizondave Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Just writing a letter to my local MP, namely Boris Johnson. Need to let him know my thoughts on the IHS (International Health Surcharge) and why I believe they should drop this for spouse visas. As my wife already pays taxes and national insurance it would seem she is paying twice for the privilege of using the National Health Service. I am writing the letter firstly because it is going to be raised from £400 a year to £624 a year in October 2020. It was only £200 a year up until 08 January 2019. I am also writing the letter due to the fact that the NHS staff and care workers are being spared from paying this charge after lobbying of unions and charities, they are also lobbying to have this reduced or stopped for all other persons applying for visas that presently have this payment as part of their visa process. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krapow Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Seeing Police getting chased and bottled in Whitehall, and these cunts trying to burn the Union flag at the Cenotaph, nevermind pulling a statue down. More we let these ANTIFA and other associated scum get away with, the more they will push it. But the Police will be under orders, plus 200 phone cameras pointed at them for any mistake. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coxyhog Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Just got back from Waitrose,they usually have some beer & wine on offer. Tanglefoot at 3 for £5 is a good deal for lovely beer & I got some Beaujolais with £1.65 off. So a good trip. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painter Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Decided to wash the brown camouflage stripes off my black car.... Moved the car to where the hose would reach. Laid the hose out and got to work. After about 10 minutes noticed the hose had developed a couple of pin hole leaks....that were shooting water about 8 feet.... straight into my open patio doors.... One soaked carpet. Bugger. Moral of the story.... don't bother washing car in the future! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
