Sorry, after asking for advice I should have updated you with the outcome. I emailed the manager at the dealer's and said that I was concerned about the purchase and that if I'd known it was an ex-rental car it would have affected our decision to buy. I assume that he knew he was potentially in trou...

My employer (local council) does not intend to change the current arrangements - work from home unless it is genuinely not possible- until there's a sign of some resolution to the pandemic. We are able to send Social Workers out on visits if we've tried all other options to complete the required tas...

Blimey are we all the same age, i was 50 at the end of July.

No we're not. You lot are all over 50.

I'd be interested in your views on this. We bought a 2017 Hyundai i30 a month ago from a dealer. We were told it had one owner. The first service wasn't in the book so I've been chasing it. I've just had an email from the dealer with an attachment confirming the first service. The confirmation was f...

My bullshit sensors are twitching. There are plenty of suggestions in the Twitter thread that this is not an official response to a request for an absentee ballot but a mailshot by the Trump campaign which, ironically, happens to include an absentee ballot request.

Yeah, I found it all a bit underwhelming. Started off thinking it was going to be a cracker then went a bit meh in my opinion. I would imagine I'll watch the second series, but it's not high up my list to be honest.

That's what I thought.

Ah right, nearly through it then. Please understand that my endorsement will mean that you will of course absolutely hate the second series, I apologise in advance for that. The second season was excellent. Different and more developed. Not sure how they could resolve things into a 3rd season thoug...

Greater love hath no man but that he give up his expensive wing mirror for the sake of a hate campaign.

One of the reasons that it's been claimed to be a hoax is that he doesn't appear to damage the mirror.

I don't know whether people are following this, but pimlico plumbers have posted a clip of a cyclist apparently kicking the door mirror of the boss.

Lots of comments about it being a set-up.

I enjoyed the first, not sure where you are with it, but stick with it 'til the end. However, in my opinion the second is vastly superior.

First or second series?

First. Hadn't heard of it until last week. Assuming that season two is one of those compromises aimed at dragging out the income.

Oh, and Black Clansman is brilliant.

We've been watching The Umbrella Academy. It started off slow but soon warms up.
