    Mobile phones (Cell phones in US speak) and the 'Why don't you use the app?'

    In the UK, if I pay cashless, I am always offered the option of having a receipt or not, I have never paid cashless without first checking the amount for accuracy. Col

    We have a roundabout in Colchester where cars and lorries can go round both the right way and the wrong way. Col

    Mobile phones (Cell phones in US speak) and the 'Why don't you use the app?'

    Doc, I agree that in exceptional circumstances, and I can't imagine how difficult it was for you, a mobile phone is a lifeline. Hats off to you. Col

    Mobile phones (Cell phones in US speak) and the 'Why don't you use the app?'

    I'm sure there are some politically obsessed here who will blame the left/right/liberals/democrats/republicans. Best option? Don't have a mobile phone. Col

    The End of Free Speech

    I'm not too well up on it but didn't the indigenous personnel of the USA and Australia try to stop the British from settling? Col

    Mass killings in USA.

    Totally wrong. I'm not interested in gun control or Liberal this or republican or democrat that. Its just a simple question. If that is too difficult to understand then forget it. Don't turn every thread into a political thing like Pat does. Look, if you have a bad storm and the wind reaches in...

    Mass killings in USA.

    I'm afraid I don't know anything about the contents of your reply. On the UK news they just refer to a mass killing or mass shooting, how many killed or injured etc. I did read somewhere that if 4 or more people are murdered then it is a mass killing. Less than 4 killed is just routine and...

    Mass killings in USA.

    The BBC news reported today on another mass shooting in Alabama. Four killed and several wounded. The report stated that there had been over 400 mass shootings in the USA this year. I wondered what the criteria is that constitutes a mass shooting, as opposed to the common daily killing of one or...

    This will oust the corruption of transgender

    A clinical termination done properly is a far better option than a backstreet abortion or the pregnant girl using knitting needles and gin. I suppose you support backstreet abortions where the girl risks their life. Forget all this 'when does life start' rubbish. Usually if a baby is not...

    This will oust the corruption of transgender

    You haven't been paying attention to my comment. You referred to an abortion and Catholic gynaecologist. I replied with a fact. I wasn't referring to the stupid wars or covid advice given at the time. Col

    This will oust the corruption of transgender

    'They' can't make you do anything. I worked in hospitals for 40 years and my work involved working with Consultant surgeons of all kinds. I remember a gynaecologist who was a nice chap, he would never perform a termination other than for the pregnancy to continue would be a danger for the...

    Is he telling the truth?

    That's a bit suspect. Why are the shop signs written backwards? Spot the Ladbroke sign written from right to left. Also, 8pm is too early for night revellers, Colchester doesn't get going till 10 and goes on till around 2am when the clubs close, that's when you get the drunken youths having...

    Is it Actually Racist?

    I dont get it. a) why did Mr Trump say it if its not true? He said he saw it on TV. b) why did Mr Trumps advisors not tell him it was untrue? c) did Mr Trump believe it was true? Or does he regularly tell lies. BTW, Miss Markel is disliked by many people in the UK, especially the press. Its...

    Is it Actually Racist?

    I've never seen The Simpsons. I think I read it somewhere. What is a mystery is why do they eat cats and dogs in Springfield? Is it just limited to that area or is it a nationwide phenomenon that has been kept quiet until Mr Trump decided to tell the world. Col

    Is it Actually Racist?

    Isn't Springfield where Mr Trump said that they eat cats and dogs? I thought Springfield was a make believe cartoon place, didn't realise it was real. Col

    Is it Actually Racist?

    How did you hear about that? It was in the 1970's and there was a gang of us - all absolutely ratassed, it was a stag night. Actually we met up with the hen party and they stripped to bra and pants, quite a night as I recall. Col
