That'll be why she's claiming it's an independent school.
You wouldn't know though, it goes to a different school.

Why is it even described as a theory when it's proven fact?

I remember going to the 150th anniversary celebrations at Shildon as a child.
This must mean I'm old but that can't be right surely?

I refuse to go in purely for the use of funky house.
It irks the purist in me - house is house.

I saw something about on local news a while ago but can't say I've noticed it even though I walk the day over the headland all the time

Is that the one for the kittiwakes?
I think the people who live on Southgate will be relieved if they nest there instead of on their window ledges.

The people whose names are shown there haven't actually incited an attack on anyone or anything.
You could argue they're doing it implicitly by giving locations specifically to not attack but I don't think you'd get that to fly as an arrestable offence.
Obvious only based on what's shown here.

Exactly this.
I wanted to buy a bog standard family car last year, something around Mondeo size and there are hardly any of them any more. I had to pay a bit more than I wanted to be able to get the model type I wanted whereas if I'd wanted an SUV I'd have had loads to choose from.

It's becoming an increasingly restricted choice if you want a car that isn't an oversized SUV as well.

Are you at the don't care if I don't wake up stage or the going to do something about it stage?
Go to a&e or phone an ambulance if it's the latter.
Can't pretend life is always great but it's not always shit and it's worth hanging on to.

The worst I've ever seen was a woman cutting her toenails on the RER C.
Just what I needed on my way to work.

I've enjoyed the England games we've had at the Riverside - I take the opportunity to sit in a different stand. 4 years since my first game back at the Riverside after covid and that was an England game against Romania.

I was glad that it wasn't around when I was in my bang for my buck booze phase. Special brew was enough without me having this available for less.

We never had Tiswas in the Tyne Tees region or at least not for ages - I think we might have got it right towards the end of its run by which point I was just sleeping all Saturday morning

1 photo & a maximum 30 second video per gig.
Above that and you're shot on the spot.
Harsh but fair I think.

They don't call it a burrito because, well, Yorkshire but here you go

Fans DO spend those kinds of hours. Fans will travel ridiculous mileage over a season and spend equally ridiculous amounts of money - trust me on this, I know.
Each to their own though.

Most people over here would just call it a Yorkshire pudding wrap.
I suppose burrito just sounds more "street food“

Travel to away games can take up an entire weekend if you're travelling from the north east to the south west for instance.
7 hours there, 7 hours back and an overnight stay.
It's not a competition to see who is most dedicated to their hobby but you're underestimating a fair bit.

Yes they do.
They might say "I'm not really a...." because pretty much everyone has at some time done both but they do it so rarely it doesn't count now.

But that of course was over 10 years ago and effective spending cuts since then have doubtless made it worse

I think that if you don't live in a place or use a service regularly you don't always notice its faults and that works both ways.
London I think did get off lightly for most of the coalition austerity years, possibly because of Olympic related spending but mainly treasury cost benefit rules.

I am too obsessed with football.
I was wondering what that all had to do with Olympique Marseille.
comment in response to

I travel round England watching my football team play week in, week out and it costs me £1000s a year.
I do it because I love it but gaming would be hugely less expensive.

It's possible that as a public sector employee he got incremental pay rises as he rose in seniority or took on more duties on top of a yearly rise - those were still in place when I worked in local government in the 80s and 90s.
comment in response to
post
Average wage growth increased not because everyone got a pay rise every couple of months but because each company or organisation had different dates for their yearly rises to come into effect.
And yes, people did have to wait all year to catch up with and hopefully get ahead of inflation.
comment in response to
post
Nobody had bimonthly pay rises.
It demeans your argument (which is basically correct) to state patently ridiculous things as fact
