What technology is that? How do you go faster than light - which you will need to? The energy required to bend space-time is estimated* to be colossal. * I don’t deny that there may be a way of bending space and time without vast amounts of energy, but there’s no sign of that as yet. Star Trek is no...

Grok, I’d love to believe there are aliens, but space is just too big for interstellar travel

No tights? Unprofessional! ;-) I'd love to see you address that statement to a group of women Rae. Just let me know the hospital and I'll send grapes. https://www.thetimes.com/article/a3075d96-453a-4029-a230-d8f9ef19be07 This is what Caitlin Moran had to say on the subject. Steve.

No tights?

Unprofessional!

Thanks, Stevie! A description not often used to describe me

Riding a bike is like swimming for me. I wear clothing appropriate to the activity. Cycling shorts for cycling; swimming trunks for swimming.

I don’t wear skirts for either activity.

I saw a male work colleague yesterday in shorts, ending just above the knee. Mid 30s, tall, slim. I said to him, “you’re wearing shorts!” He sheepishly said “yes”, almost as if he was about to be chided by me. I looked at him and said, “do you know what I think about men wearing shorts at work?” At ...

I am aware of this, and am seriously contemplating it. Yes, expensive - but what an experience!

Ps the murder rate per million population is still FOUR times that of the UK. Still smug?

You’re playing with numbers now. You live in a dangerous country presided over by a comvicted felon. I do not. I choose the UK every time. Or France, Spain, Germany, Portugal - to name but a few. You mention “oppressed”. That amuses me. You have no concept of the term if you think the UK is oppresse...

Oh sure, no crime in your county, I totally believe that. I believe an "r" has been omitted in there. Ray lives in the UK, a decidedly more peaceful place than the USA. That's not to say they don't have their problems -- they do -- but it's nowhere on the scale of what happens in the USA....

As Stevie suggested, please lock and close this thread.

In my country, we don’t need to take weapons into a toilet.

I don’t want to visit or go anywhere near a country which permits or condones such behaviour.

I feel sorry for those of you who live in such fear.

Hmm. Why not? Not sure who Jehovah is (although he seems to have a lot of witnesses - was he in a car crash?) but blending various hypothetical individuals into one is no more daft than saying that the Tempranillo (Spanish) grape is the same as Aragones (Portuguese). Different name, same end result.

Pay peanuts, get crap.

Sorry it’s worked out badly. I refuse to buy from Shein, Temu etc. I’ll buy quality and have no regrets. The price race to the bottom is futile.
