Karpaty Lviv Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Why do people carry every single bank card/membership card/business cards etc in their wallet at all times? A trip to the shop doesn’t require your blood donor card or your NI card. It just makes it a pain in the arse if you lose it/gets stolen rather than just storing it away securely in the house, ready for when it’s actually needed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably because it's not a big deal to have an extra 20g in their wallet, and not everybody wants to sits down before every trip out and decide which of the dozen or so cards they absolutely, definitely aren't going to need. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They cover Edinburgh so should be happy to travel over your way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I moved in to my current flat 10 years back I had the b'room and shower room floors done in linoleum from Kirkaldy and I believe the factory is still going. Needing an upgrade now but it's been an excellent floor covering. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UsedToGoToCentralPark Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Indigo yard any good these days? Not been there for years and booked a table for some drinks to ensure I had somewhere to get a pint after our meal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a new TV last week, plugged my Skybox in and it was horrendous. Had to turn of things like “auto motion” and make sure to change the settings on the sky box to 2160. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 How long after someone is buried does it become socially acceptable to dig them up for archaeological interest? This is a question I can never get an answer for from archaeologists. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they dug up Great Uncle Alexander from his quiet grave in Flanders after 103 years I might be a bit annoyed because there's a direct connection with my granny whom I knew personally. I would guess maybe 150-200 years as there's enough distance for it not to matter so much. On the other hand they made a bit of a fuss about digging up Dickie the Third not so long ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
