Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V

I feel that this particular investigation (among the several that I am currently undergoing) is being overhyped as the symptoms seem insignificant when compared to the others (prostate and lower back pain). I admit that for a couple of years I have had balance problems (with falls) and that I now re...

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V

I attended the local hospital today for a dementia assessment (a series of questions and activities such as counting backwards). One of the themes was whether I knew what day it was, I pointed out that their clock was wrong as it wasn't 1st March as indicated but 29th February - which seemed the thr...

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V

I visited a supplier in Taiwan and was shown around their 'factory' - a multi-storey tenement building where the same two employees appeared on several floors. This was a supplier who offered to reproduce competitors products and claimed they could mimic ANY packaging. The entrepreneur had chosen th...

Re: Looking for a cheap simple 4G candy bar

I have a Samsung Galaxy A12.

I don't know whether it runs on 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G or 6G.

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V

Where I am now living (sheltered housing) has a day room in a glass-roofed 'conservatory' (think greenhouse) and even gentle precipitation patters noisily on the glass roof - often without any sign of wetness at ground level.

Re: Two US Companies Shoot For The Moon

I appreciate that the Moon has little or no 'atmosphere' - apart from being a 'cool' place to be - though no moonlight for atmosphere of course - but does it share a similar seasonal temperature to Earth with the South pole being 'Antarctic'? I wonder what would happen if the lander was shot out of ...

Re: The disgraceful BBC

Talking of voices - I was employed by a German company and I communicated mostly by telephone. One regular contact had the most sexy voice and I eagerly looked forward to our frequent phonecalls. Her name was Angelika. I was warned by others not to get my expectations up for when I eventually got to...

Re: WTF is happening in the UK?

My son married a French girl whose father (from a remote Southern hill village - not a tourist location - the residents are all related) who (the father) spent his working life as a diplomat at various embassies around Europe.

The village has zero - no bakery, no shop, just a vineyard.
