I hate that when they do decide to graft a bit, they do it at 7 am. Means I get woke up at least 3 hours early every fuckin' Monday.

Rainfall and flooding in the Mediterranean countries has ruined the crop, so supermarkets are only letting people buy at most three at a time.

I mean, I can't imagine ever wanting to buy more than one head of lettuce at a time, but there you go.

I bought a lettuce once, made a couple of BLTs and then left the lettuce to rot in my fridge.

True story.

Iceburg lettuce will doom your rabbits, lizards and tortoises to a slow horrible death. It's mostly water, has virtually no calories or nutritional value and your pet will use more calories eating it than they get from it, and as Lizards/tortoises have tiny stomachs and a slow metabolic rate you are basically starving your pet to death with food.

Whenever I am out with my friend buying food for her Guinea Pigs we have to scan the ingredient lists on those salad bags you can get to make sure they do not contain iceberg lettuce because as you say, it is doubly poo poo for pets you might feed it too.

What do you mean by 'aggregated poll'? That latest poll is from YouGov.

I'm sure there was an article in the Graun recently stating that Trump had no interest in addressing MPs and just wanting all the pomp and circumstance of a state visit, meet the Queen, some military display, that kind of shite.

You don't know what cheerleading is.

I had an e-mail back from my labour clp this morning telling me they don't have the authority to accept my resignation and will let me know who I have to contact. Either way the DD is cancelled, but I guess this might be how labour could inflate member numbers for a long time.

Why are you so important that you need to resign from the Labour Party?

Cancel your DD, cut your membership card up and post pictures of it on social media like all the other whiny little babies have done in the past.

You are welcome.

Have you tried this, from The NewStatesman?

quote:

2. You can cancel your direct debit, and contact the Labour party headquarters telling them you are leaving at The Labour Party, Labour Central, Kings Manor, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 6PA. This is more boring, but more predictable, and it means you can join again when you are filled with regret for abandoning your comrades.
