Necrothatcher posted:Is it too simple to just buy a return ticket for a friend to do a round trip and come back with the instrument as unchecked cabin luggage? I wouldn't trust a shipping company with it. I've got a retired pal that makes bespoke guitars. When its a foreign client that is how he does shipping. Just flies out personally with the thing.

Mano posted:depending on the value, cabin luggage might not be insured that high. I'm also not sure that the dimensions fit the normal dimensions for that. Not sure why you'd need insurance for cabin baggage? But yes, this will most likely be the cheapest way to do it

A friend of mine works in antiquities shipping, I'll ask them who they use. Edit: turns out my friend works for the shipping company. I'll send you a PM with details. Further edit: for those that might be wondering about how they can transport their many antiques, the company is https://www.const.co.uk/ Tsietisin fucked around with this message at 10:15 on Mar 15, 2024 |

Cool we just signed a deal with the state who does basically just oil & gas and just made porn functionally illegal because they passed a photo ID law that came into effect this week.

I'm not one to intrude on Royal traditions, but shouldn't he be using a ball instead of bouncing his children off of the walls and floor? e: Serious point: I don't think their children have been seen in public since Christmas either. fuctifino fucked around with this message at 11:24 on Mar 15, 2024 |

Always nice to see the Tories getting a kicking especially when it involves justly calling them out but the thing is they've been enacting racist policies their whole tenure and are still doing, and will keep doing as long as they're in. The racism never stops. If you're in power these days you can do or say anything you like as long as you do it with enough decorum, and I can't help think that the only thing that's tripped them up this time isn't that the racism was especially egregious for them, it was just delivered in an indecorous way, and that kind of takes the sheen off it a bit.

IANAL but my understanding is that it's a non-binding statement that the UK and Texas might maybe do some sort of trade in the future if a trade deal is reached with the US government.

But normally it's stuff like Belarus signing agreements with Altai Krai of Russia, not something G7 countries do with parts of other G7 countries.

Great Britain, 2026: Steven Seagal holds a lifetime appointment as Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police. Elon Musk has constructed a vast array of launch pads on Dartmoor solely for blasting gay and trans people directly into the sun. Children are punished for forgetting to bring a fully serviced and loaded automatic firearm into school. All power plants have been closed and replaced with an extremely long jumper lead connected to the Texas Interchange.

It's all yet another example of how remarkably cheaply UK politicians can be bought. Chuck 10 million in the corruption fund and recieve 400 million and more in contracts. Who wouldnt?

I feel like there is a very easy solution to "do you take millions from horrible racists" and it's "yes cos I don't want them to have it and we're gonna spend it on helping out the people he hates" but the Tories can't say that because they do think he should have it and don't want to help any of the people he hates.

It would be heartening to see the tories get a battering from the QT audience, if it wasn't for the fact that the alternative is Labour and the negative response from that demographic is only going to make Sunak or his eventual replacement turn the big dials that say racism / crush the welfare state on them even further.

If it weren't for the Tories agreeing with him and him also expecting a return on investment, yeah it'd be fine.

Tsietisin posted:A friend of mine works in antiquities shipping, I'll ask them who they use. Thank you Tsietisin and everyone else! I did think maybe flying there and back again myself would be the best option, but we'd like to explore others before I have to take time off work. I'll share all these with my mum and we'll get this sorted. Goons truly are the best.

Jel Shaker posted:obviously slurs against malaysians are much cheaper right now because they’re so unused , so say them while they last! Best thing about being a multiracial country assembled by the British is despite having slurs galore against each other nothing unites the nation faster than some white person making remarks about the food. Even Gordon Ramsay knew when to wind it in lest he disappear into the jungle never to be seen again.
