    What do you think of 'Banksy'?

    I took my daughter to the exhibition of his work in London a couple of years ago and found the same thing. Raised a whole load of questions and discussions about the issues he's highlighting in a 'fun' way.

    What is the best car you've ever owned and a brief reason why?

    Ugh the prices of DC2s after I sold mine for £2.5k in 2011 when my daughter was born because it needed some rust repairing...

    Hammering in water pipes

    Very much not, and I'm hoping the OP has continued the joke..

    What is the best car you've ever owned and a brief reason why?

    Integra DC2 UKDM. Great car on the roads, enough power for my talent, it made b road driving a joy without doing stupid speeds. Every time I took it to the track and got instruction, the instructors got excited about driving it to show me the lines.

    New MS Teams

    MS Web based Teams and Outlook are truly terrible IME. I can be literally sending messages back and forth and I'll appear offline to the person I'm messaging. If don't go onto the Teams tab every now and again I will have missed a message that only appears after a second or 2 after going on to...

    Find the highest point in the pipework and drill a hole in it to let the air out....

    How Easy Is It To Sell an Old Piano These Days?

    And if you got there, it'd be a tower block with no working lifts and a body in the stairwell. But on topic...I 'inherited' a piano from a previous owner when I bought my house. I ended up contacting him to arrange and pay for it to be taken away for scrap as not even local youth groups or...

    UEFA Euro 2024 Qualifiers & Friendlies ** spoilers ** [21st - 26th March 2024]

    I'm not a massive fan of Southgate, but the midfield forward is pretty decent and balanced from what he has available.

    UEFA Euro 2024 Qualifiers & Friendlies ** spoilers ** [21st - 26th March 2024]

    It's very amusing in group chats when you know a lot of Geordies and Pickford does stuff like that. You can taste the rage through WhatsApp. What a goal that is BTW. Half a mistake from Dunk but that ball...

    The Great Big FFP Debate

    As a Forest fan, it seems fair enough. We knew the rules and arguing that they are unfair after we breached them is a load of rubbish. We also knew that we had been in the Championship for 2 years and what that meant. We cheated, we've had the benefit of cheating with a massive squad and if...

    Deep sea mining

    Humans aren't algae, or beavers, we're conscious and intelligent lifeforms. While I get the philosophical point that, to an alien observer, we're just a part of the ecosystem of earth, and to them it might be an interesting study to see us wipe ourselves out along with half the larger lifeforms...

    Deep sea mining

    Lets be fair, he's not denying it, just downplaying it and not giving a damn because it won't be him that suffers.

    Deep sea mining

    This is a new level of Meism for Lightbulbguy. 'Ah well as long as the human species survives long enough for me to have my nice stuff and then die, screw anybody who follows and any other species."

    The ongoing Elon Twitter saga: "insert demographic" melts down

    That's never going to happen, the same way we need to put 'This product may contain nuts' on packets of salted peanuts, some people are so stupid or ignorant that they need protecting.

    The ongoing Elon Twitter saga: "insert demographic" melts down

    He's not. Many people are concerned about the rise of alt facts and who controls certain parts of the media and have expressed those concerns in more appropriate threads But also, if you're going to court publicity in the way that Elon does, make outlandish claims as to what you can/will...

    The ongoing Elon Twitter saga: "insert demographic" melts down

    It's quite possible he'll distill the user base down to a Truth Social level of scum baggery.

    The Budget 2024 thread

    People are coming here to work and contribute to the economy. It's just the Tories have taken to spending money, holing them up in purgatory and making them a PR win to sell to the weak minded.

    The Budget 2024 thread

    I guess it depends, philosophically if not necessarily in reality, on where you stand on whether you should still pay into the 'support of the elderly' pot when you are the elderly but don't need the support. There are some very easy ways to stop it happening though if you choose to do so...
