My brother's partner is a police officer. A DS I think.

Turns out my niece, who is 3 ish, has been going around school threatening kids that her mum will Taser them unless they're nice to her 🤣

Clearly these two individuals have their own ideas about what makes the best Merc!

I'm actually just watching JayEmm, and then Hubnut. Clearly the answer is W124.

It's two polar opposite channels JM is a complete twat but Laurie, the long haired chap with a beard who used to appear on his channel was excellent.  Ian is ace but it's far better without the hairy twat 😂

Looked quite promising from a distance , disappointing closer up though

I saw this on a presentation about idiots in the workplace yesterday, by Christ it rang true!

Surprising variety of typefaces used on this given it dates from 1753*.

The quality of the cabinetmaking is peerless*.

Made from plastic and with bits borrowed from other manufacturers?

1753? That's nearly 6 o'clock

A bunch of hipster kids in the pub last night, smoking Sherlock Holmes style pipes.

Makes a change from those steam-bong things that remind  me of a K-series with a radiator full of Vimto.

How does she even know about Tasers? It's not the sort of thing that comes up in conversation with a 3 year old.

Probably saw mummy in uniform  and asked "what's that for" and had an explanation, along with "and you must never touch it"

I've come to the conclusion, uniforms, workwear and the like should be left at work. 

I like the 1980s when old blokes woukd come to work in a shirt and tie and then get changed into overalls, and nurses, who didn't travel to and from hospitals in uniform which must be better for infection control.

I'm sorry but if you don't want nurses to bring their uniforms home with them then we can't be friends

Knowing my brother he said something and she overheard. Or got it from her older sister, or possibly she saw one and asked what it was.

Or maybe heard her Mum, according to her "Mummy shouts at Daddy a lot" 😄

Timex. It's in a draw somewhere.

Best view of the M25 I have had for a while, nicer round leafy Surrey lanes though. 😁

I've bought a house in the countryside (Romania, not UK) for the full price of a Sandero.  Sure, it's not been lived in in 20 years, but it's still standing and the roof is not leaking. Just cleared the jungle in the yard, and now I can asses the damage to the building and make plans to turn it into a summer retreat.

Leaving my parents house my dad enquired if I had a breville?

I gave him a puzzled looked and assumed he was going to offer me a vintage sandwich toaster.

He said one of the things you put a disc on the end as well as other bits.

He meant a dremel.
