Not wanting to make light of this topic, but what is meant by ‘historic abuse’? It’s not like there’s another type?

It means that whatever it was (cough, noncing, cough) it happened a long time ago, usually at least 10-15 years ago, and often longer.

Guavanaut posted:Please show some electoral respect to Sar Jeffry Nonsedildo What the gently caress is up with those borders? Mainly in Scotland. Like, it definitely isn't council areas, it can't be shires because there's no Moray or Nairnshire, & the bit that includes Inverness is all wrong for Invernessshire. I'm confused. That or the map maker just made it up because who care about them teuchters?

Midlands, West Wales, and South-West are completely made up too, so I think it probably means that seagulls are gonna attack you soon.

i remember at school the gulls would start circling the playground about 10 minutes before every break/lunch time, every day i lived near the school and what's even more interesting is they seemed to know when there were and weren't people in the school because the first day of any holiday they'd be nowhere to be seen

One time I was having fish and chips on Brighton pier with a mate, and this seagull was sitting on a fencepost nearby watching us. At one point another gull came along and the first gull flew away, letting the other one take its place for about ten minutes. Then gull 1 returned (it had a distinctive little mark on its neck) and gull 2 flew off to let it resume its post. Loo break I suppose.

They used to be dinosaurs. So be thankful they don't rip out your throats and disembowel you for that ice cream. The UK is an island. Being attacked by hordes of dinosaurs. Britassic Park. Pity everyone is that lawyer guy who gets eaten on the toilet.

Gull chat: One time I was in Bristol walking along the edge of the waterfront stuffing a Greggs baguette in my cake 'ole when this gull swooped down over my head and literally stole it from my mouth where I was just tearing a bit off & there was about half a ham & cheese baguette there. I shook my fist at it and shouted 'fascist' at it to the bemusement of those around me.

It's a bit mean-spirited, but I'm thoroughly enjoying the stories of people who looked at their expired passport and thought "It'll be fine to go on holiday with this", only to find out [shock] that it wasn't fine.

It's as if Starmer doesn't know that half the world calls it "The Butcher's Apron". Labour may as well just rebrand themselves UKIP & get it over with.

I actually upset my wife a bit yesterday as we were discussing this and she'd misinterpreted the story and somehow thought you needed 10 years left on your passport to go to Europe now, and I was just dumbfounded at how the story could be so badly mistaken. For the couple in the news recently, their problem was that pre-2018 passports have an extra 9 months on their expiry date, but the EU won't let you in if it was issued over 10 years ago (even if the passport says it's valid). So the error is slightly more understandable but anyone travelling with less than a year left on their passport really should be checking before they travel no matter what. And also renew sooner to get that sweet new passport colour, of course.

TACD posted:It’s brilliant! Mine isn’t large enough to handle full-size dinner plates but it’s so nice to just have all the small plates, tea mugs, cutlery etc taken care of. Yeah my kitchen is very small as well so it sits in the corner next to the sink. I got one of these, largely because I didn’t want the hassle of plumbing the thing in (I fill it with a jug for each wash). Looks good! I'll add it to my wishlist.

I keep seeing articles with people saying they're never coming to Wales again because of the 20mph speed limit. The way this was portrayed in the media was as if ALL roads in Wales would be 20mph whereas it's only within populated areas, not on the open road (where people can still drive at 40, 50, 60mph). I even thought that it meant all roads until I looked in to it. I did have another example but by the time I came to write it down it had gone again. (Wish you could replay the last minute of braincells actions!)

Anyone have any experience with anti vibration mats? I have a cat fountain upstairs that sends a low hum into the floor below it, so I put it on a flannel and it massively reduced the noise. I bought some of these looking for a long term fix https://amzn.eu/d/dIUhUQG and they made it worse! They seem to amplify the vibrations. What the hell am I doing wrong? I figured maybe as it's so lightweight compared to a washer they aren't absorbing any of the vibrations, and the mats changed the frequency to have more resonance with the joist but what else do I do?
