I tried it and I got Stanley Johnson.

He ordered me to use the keypad to spell Pinocchio to prove I wasn't a time waster. I got it right, and he audibly relaxed.

"Call me Mustafa," he said.

Amiable chap, apart from the constant unprompted racism :)

Boris Johnson has unveiled a new election poster in a visit to Kent. It declares: “Get Britain out of neutral.”

The poster does not state which gear the Conservatives want to put Britain in but it shows a choice of gears.

There’s actually several linked in the OP, and doubtless others available that aren’t listed. Which one is best really depends if the person takes issue with a specific ‘incident’ or just has a general bad feeling brought on by media attacks.

Thanks, I knew I'd seen some stuff in the thread, completely slipped my mind it might have been in the OP. I know she's Jewish herself and very concerned about the international rise in antisemitism but talks about Labour a lot in very... vague generalities. "Look at the whole Labour thing, a sign of the times, they're the worst of the lot!" sort of stuff. Links on the OP should help, thanks!

Trip report from the GP:

I asked if I could be prescribed vitamin D supplements and the doctor said:

"We're moving away from prescribing vitamin D supplements because everyone in Scotland is at risk of vitamin D deficiency in winter."

I replied: "That sounds like the opposite of a sensible response to the issue."

She gave a sympathetic half-nod.

I assured her that I understood that it wasn't her fault (gently caress me, imagine being a healthcare worker and having to put up with the Tories being your bosses!)

It's a good thing I can just about afford to pay for them myself! I hope everyone else can! :tizzy:

Just got a sneak preview of next Tuesday, lads ladettes and others. It's looking like a corker

- ECHR announcing an Islamophobia investigation into the Conservative party

- Jezza leaking the Russia report

- The guardian finally publishing an article by a pro-Corbyn Jew

- Andrew Neil spending 30 minutes screaming at an inflatable sex doll with Boris' face pasted on it

- Laura K taking 'voluntary redundancy' from the beeb

- Railway strike bought to an early end by hard man McDonnell and the ghost of Ed milliband having a 'sit down' with South Western railways.

The Oracle tells me that at least half of these will come to pass

I just pick up the cheap multivitamin + iron pills from tesco, they seem to work fine. I notice if I don't take them for a while I get a lot more hangnails, and I figure if I'm taking one vitamin, I may as well take all of them!

Don't get the ones with iron in if you're a bloke.

Yeah multivits are a huge waste and some synthesised vitamins are either unnecessary to be supplemented, are far less bioavailable than food sourced forms or even toxic. Vit D dose is usually stupidly low in multivits as well.

I literally this week got one of those Three home internet things. £22pm for unlimited broadband no phone line.

Just did a speed test - I've been getting these speeds every day since I got it. Early one evening it went down to about 50Mbps for a while but mostly it's fast. I'm using it on ethernet just now (I got the huwaii B535 gadget with ethernet ports, not the alexa gadget which is a bit more expensive per month anyway) because since Windows 10 update a few months ago, my wireless adaptor cuts out several times a day. PS I'm in Wales.



I've had a Three mifi for several years now - I'm on a 40GB for £18.25pm package (legacy). It's always been great and I've used that one in many parts of the UK.

In all the time I've had it, there's only been that one day a few weeks ago when Three was out for the day.

I'm getting really pissed off with the 'phone line broadband' package I ordered over a month ago not delivering so I might cancel it even though I always like to have a second available broadband line. Maybe I'll up my non-three phone to one with data.

Why don't you get one of the Three mifi things with a month's package and see what you think before committing yourself?

Edit: I'm not a gamer nor am I a nano-second stock market investor!

Edit 2: This is 4G. We don't have 5G in my area.

Awesome, thanks for this. My main concern was due to a spotty connection on my phone with them for the last 6 months despite my house supposedly being in a decent 4g area.

I complained 2 weeks back and it's been working fine since then so who knows.

I'll give one of those mifi things a try before going all in though.

I'm a pretty big gamer which is mildly painful on a connection like mine with game sizes these days.

Streaming is bad too if you're doing anything else with the connection.

I've been using a SMARTY (on Three's network) unlimited 4g plan as my main source of internet for the past couple of months and it's been totally fine. I was surprised by how low the latency is - I've seen it get as low as 50ms in games and is usually 60-70.
