@VforV, I haven't read all the posts fully regarding the BOB's. I paid into a pension in very first job I had about 30 years ago for over 5 years. I recently got an email from the broker handling it now ( Company long gone).
Value of the BOB is over 5k which would come in handy but am I right in assuming from what I've read here that this cant be cashed in until retirement?
I am at the opposite end of Keanes knowledge spectrum.

Most good dark you'd be using would be 70%+, be the EU legal min is 35%.
I seen a 99% bar the other day, and was wondering if 100% was possible. Apparently is it, but I can't imagine it's very different from 99%, or even particular nice on its own.

Just started into Designated Survivor. There's something very old fashioned about it, that I can't quite define. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design...vor_(TV_series)Gone full 'Glinner' since June 2022.

Also started into Black Mirror which I was completely unaware of until it appeared on Netflix. The first episode with the PM fucking a pig was weirdly precient(though not really). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_MirrorGone full 'Glinner' since June 2022.

Looking bad for HRC, looks like the polls are swinging in favor of Trump. And I read that the primaries had a bigger turnout of Republicans which sways the numbers even more towards a Republican victory. And those numbers fell away after Trump wrapped up the nomination a month before the convention which also indicates that the number would have been even higher.
I think it's time to predict a Trump landslide. God help us all .

Not all 360 games will work on it but a lot of the more popular ones do. Current list is here: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/b...vailable-games

Most people would say there hasn't been an attempt on Obama, yet theres

Baseball is another example of yanks being brain dead idiots. It's like loads of countries sent their worst people then the Irish sent their people and built the place for a collection of massive idiots which formed a massive land of idiots who watch rounders fueled by steroids. Fuck baseball.

I have tried 85% chocolate and it was very very bitter, not sure if I tasted higher as that put me off. I LOVE dark chocolate, would take that over milk any day of the week but this was just too much, even for me.

Fairly clear evidence of non-racism there (as I scan Europe for black heads of state).
Kentucky is probably not reflective of the norm. Colonel Sanders, Dixie being played at the Run for the Roses, etc."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Don't really want trump to win but the salt from all the pundits in the Irish media who think the democrats are white knights is going to be very enjoyable. Reading a bit on the hacked emails I see creepy old Eric Schmidt in there helping to profile voters.
Funny watching all the Clinton court banging on about comeys breach of protocol if she had stuck to protocol herself she wouldn't be in this mess

Dont attempt the 60 mins to Sao Paulo connection as they stranded me in Frankfurt for 24 hours the last time and I barely made it the time before.

Originally posted by ArmaniJeans View PostSo High Court ruling is that Westminster Parliament has to vote on Brexit, the government can't trigger A50 on its own.
Interesting. Majority of MPs are Remain but will they feel they feel an obligation to vote with what the people decided.
Decent chance of a general election soon I think.
Best solution I can see is to put the terms of any settlement back to another refferendum but I can't see how it could be with the way the process is scheduled.
