Seen a lassie go round lidl today with a face mask on, then when I walked out, she was stood about 4 yards from the doorway lighting a fag as fast as humanly possible after leaving. Funny what some folk care about filtering..... 

Maybe she had the lurgy and was doing the right thing, trying not to spread it.

Maybe a bit funny coming from me, but is there a law in Scotland stating that you can't cut a (nestless) hedge between X & Y month (particularly between March & Aug)?

No shortage of contradictory messages online which may well be out of date, and difficult to tell if there's a Scotland v England difference, or whether domestic properties are exempt.

Seems clear enough that there's now a 2024 law that stops Scottish farmers clipping hedgerows from end Mar to start of August.  Bit vague beyond that.

Virgin Media have emailed an offer saying I can have all 9 Sky Sports HD channels for £25 a month extra for the next 18months. Is that a good deal? 

My question would be how much your total package would be and what you get in it.

I’m paying £39 a month just now I think for the basic TV and pretty good internet (have a phone line too but it’s not even plugged in). Adding sky sports would take it to £64 a month

Get connected with a Firestick, £50-60 per annum.

That isn't too bad. I have the fastest internet, TV, Sky Sports and movies for about £90 a month.

Two unrelated posts but according to the media the police can't afford enough staff to stop Greggs being emptied of a weeks worth of Steak Bakes but have enough to chap the doors if everyone watching Leeds vs Portsmouth on a Saturday afternoon. 

I'm sceptical

You see click clickbaity shite popping up all the time about how IPTV is about to be CRACKED DOWN!!!!! again and specifically how this time they plan to target the end users..... If there aren't millions of end users there are certainly hundreds of thousands. It's laughable. And tbh in the 3 years or so I've used it, I'd say the bigger service interruptions where they tackle the providers are getting less frequent rather than more

How do I go about defrosting an integrated freezer that I cant turn the power off to?

 

Will just leaving the door for an amount of time do it? 

Integrated or not there should still be an off switch.

Worst case scenario, trip switch in your fuse box?

Turn the dial down to zero?

Or for once the often trotted out retort to open the windows and bung the heating up.

Start a chip pan fire, and then move the chip pan into the freezer.
