My wife does this, sad to say. Her car has "Eco Stop/Start", so when she brakes and stops at the lights the engine turns off. If she lifts her foot off the brake, the engine starts again which she doesn't like, so she keeps her foot on the brake. On the rare occasions I drive it, I turn off the Eco feature before setting off. If I forget, I flick on the park brake and just let the engine start again. As Humza Yousaf would say, f**k the Greens!

A Google image search might not be the most valid approach, but he doesn't seem to wear that blue kippah (or any kippah) much, except when he's launching himself headfirst into a crowd of pro-Palestinian demonstrators. I wonder how outraged he'd have been with the Met if the copper had just let him go, and he'd subsequently had his head kicked in.

Random Matches You Are Going To...
Doctor Manhattan replied to Haitch's topic in Misc Other Fitba Chat
Two weeks ago: Fox in the box invades pitch and stops play between Portsmouth and Derby -
Hmm. Living in London in the 80s I went to Stamford Bridge a couple of times. Was stood in the Shed wen they beat Kevin Keegan's Newcastle 4-0, which was funny. However, I also stood in the Shed to watch them play Rangers in a friendly, and they were a bit too friendly, if you catch my drift. Pringle-wearing currants.

The clearance was also Shane Blaney. By "clearance" I mean "inch perfect defence-splitting pass". Luckily for us, the chance fell to Snake Cadden, who fucked it up with his usual aplomb.

Still 5 games to go of course, but if Shaw scores that we'd be sitting 7th instead of 8th right now. It's hardly Top Six money, but how much is an extra place worth at the end of the season? Mind you, by that logic pretty much every last one of our players has cost us a point or three somewhere along the line this season.

All things Dundee FC
Doctor Manhattan replied to Mr Gandosaur's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Well done, and you're welcome! Now, do everyone a favour and take 5th place from St Mirren, preferably with the last kick of the ball on the last day of the season. -
What was Angela Rayner actually doing ?
Doctor Manhattan replied to pawpar's topic in The Politics Forum
"Right to Buy" has been a contentious subject for the Labour party in England for some time. (It was ended in Scotland in 2016.) The sum involved here is relatively trivial, and it will probably turn out that no rules/laws have actually been broken. However, one aim is to try to paint Rayner as a hypocrite for taking advantage of the scheme to make money, while supporting policies which would prevent anyone else being able to do the same. The longer this dominates the news, the less attention there is on nonsense like Rwanda etc. It's desperate deflection tactics from a doomed party, but that's obviously all they've got. -
I don't normally mind Steelmen, but I've been avoiding it lately because it's going through one of its periodic phases of being dominated by a small number of people who seem to think they have to post every single thought that flits briefly across their minds, usually followed by "It's all about opinions" when anyone sensible points out that they're talking bollocks.

Ah, sorry mate. I don't often stray far from the actual football threads, but should have read back a bit before asking stupid questions.
