Miftan posted:So 2 of my friends run a Crumpet Bar in Tel Aviv. Its essentially a bar selling booze, Pimm's (which is impossible to get in Israel) and crumpets with fancy toppings. Like, beef and mash and poo poo. The menu is all named for famous bits and their veggie option is called the Jeremy Corbyn. Bold naming a meal after history's greatest antisemitic monster. And in Israel at that. Appalling

I call upon you Rhodri the Great, King of Gwynedd, uniter of Cymru. I call upon you Maredudd ab Owain, of the House of Dinefwr. I call upon you Pybba of Mercia, son of Creoda and father of Penda and Eowa. I call upon you Coenwulf, last of the bretwaldas. Actually, they're called pikelets.

Didn't word that very well, I meant three hours in total. Still means you're out the house for 12 hours a day, which screws with any kind of gym schedule or desire to cook etc. The main problem with a London commute tends to be the interchanges. Walk to train station, train, tube, change tube, walk again. Mostly I just try to squeeze duolingo or a bit of light reading into the gaps where I'm not moving or breathing in someone's armpit. Anyway, looking forward to the third general election in 5 years being called tomorrow.

Barry Foster posted:Surely this is a terrible idea for the tories. Unless they're banking on the Brexit Party tide receding so they can hoover up their votes I'd imagine that's exactly the point. Farage et al have agreed to back the tories by not campaigning in tory seats if and only if they brexit. This guarantees they brext and then can sell it as delivering on promises to the gammons.
