My dvd player having expired, I bought a new one (ASDA, Pacific, ?30). Now just one DVD - Pollyanna, Carlton version with Amanda Burton - will not play. It loads up and comes to the title page. The...
Words from the cross by Christ. Can I add a tilt to them. They are supposed to be a fulfillment of the OT, but what if, when Christ uttered them from the cross, that they were more than that and...
Interviewed on R4 this morning all Theresa May would reveal is that she hasn't shown her hand (if any) yet. I think she would be a complete winner for the Tories - a very attractive lady with...
If The Sun manages to infiltrate a heckler (hopefully!) into the audience for a major speech, how should the speaker/conference handle it ? They will be reluctant to do a Brownshirt act again,...

After a night which doesn't bear describing but included threats of suicide (I wish!!) and murder, next door has quietened down. In the cold light of day what is left is the entire contents of one...
I think it would be considerate if the words just and must were consciously avoided in Suggestions. A couple of things computer people wince at: "Couldn't it just do so and so", "It must do such and...
Here are some options: 1) Never existed, all a hoax (but see Josephus, Luke) 2) Existed, said and did a few good things, died somewhere in India or France. 3) Existed, got crucified, died, buried, end...
There's a thread going about sat-nav systems. I have an RAC 1210 traffic alert, which is a little device which velcros to your windscreen and has a system of warning lights (N,S,E,W) which on approach...
I have just cooked a mother of vindaloos. A tin of Eazy Fried Onions (pre-fried in olive oil). 1lb or so of chopped chicken. Quantities approximate: 2 tbs Rajah extra hot curry powder, 2 tbs TRS...
