Wash.. what is wash? just like ACF50 for your motorbike - all humans need is a weekly application of manuka beeswax&sealscat over/under clothing as desired. Increase to once a day during subzero temps if need be.
I feel your pain. I got offered a programme manager job last week funnily enough but I am not currently operating at that level so turned it down. I’m all for as Richard Branson put it, figuring things out as you go. But there’s a blag.. and then there’s a BLAG! the £1200 a day would have been nice though
I sold my TV about ten years ago. I gather there is still sometimes quality on, but it always seems to be American (Breaking Bad, The Wire). News went off a cliff as it went 24 hr. News 'reporting' or 'news' reporting 24/7, 365 days a year. It was bad enough when they only had to compete with each other, but then the internet happened. Sensationalism is the business model.
Wouldn’t it be nice to wake up one morning and things were back to normal. No more internet , no more 24 hours a day advertising with every box ticked , no more media pish coming from every angle , no more “influencer wankers “ and so called fucking celebrities . The list goes on. World has gone nuts. I don’t seem to know one person who’s happier with their lot these days. This past 2 years have shown how fucked up we are and it’s only going to get worse. The selfishness and stupidity of the “sheep” has been proven without doubt in the latest fuel fiasco.
You can just switch it all off though which is how I operate. I don’t watch the news or read any papers. I occasionally pick up news online, very briefly. The majority of the stuff doesn’t in any way effect me or most people anyway. If it wasn’t rammed down your throat you probably would be none the wiser. I don’t do social media. lovely jubbly
I heard somewhere that the government are bringing in a troubleshooter from Australia to sort out this media manufactured fuel problem that we apparently have.
Sure, had mobes since '93. And desktop computers. If I want to watch something I download it. Mostly old films though. Most of which I've seen so many times I'd rather just go for a ride - though chance would be a fine thing!
IMHO the BBC see themselves as self appointed arbiters of the public consciousness and ceased to be impartial in any way or form many years ago. Unfortunately the alternatives aren't really any better vying for the exclusive on the next sensational story to the extent that they'll create one from the merest crumb. I very rarely watch the news these days. Don't get me started on Kay Burley, her questioning style is persistent to the extent that she wants blood from a stone even when the answer to her line of questioning is obviously an unknown. It's cringe-worthy.
I totally agree with previous posts about this being media hyped bollox ,i'm also very pissed off with the Beeb in particular for the inference that its all a consequence of Brexit - their left leaning Remainer bias is open for all to see and for a so called 'national broadcaster' is fucking shocking. . ha, beyond the wall the BBC and most other MSM say it's all because of covid. no surprises here for those that know how they work.
When you think about it, you don’t need one. Well I don’t. The Mrs watches it but I don’t. I watch what I want to watch on my laptop. I’ll sit with her to watch some shite but I’d happily blow my telly up…
5 of us were supposed to be setting off this morning for a four day tour round Wales which had been rescheduled from the summer due to covid. We're not going now due to this madness.
