I've lived in London, various places within the M25, for about 40 years now and still walk around looking up and enjoying exploring both new and old places. We do the Hidden City treasure hunts which is a great way of…
We have a couple of large customers who will only send remittance advices as a PDF, the are several pages and a couple of hundred rows. Apparently their system can not send XLSX or any other format. I've been a happy…
I think the problem is that website shows NESW going clockwise, is should be the other way. > N > E W > S (sorry about formatting)
I've been playing a few times a year with family and once we got over the steep learning curve we really enjoy it and play for many hours several times a year. What has helped a LOT is we've developed a double sided…

I'm not sure about the specific Atari 2600 controllers but my hazy memory has at least three types of what appear to be rotary. One is basically a self centring sprung up/off/down switch. That would be similar to a car…
> I have a rare brand loyalty for the brand of box I use - only the "Really Useful" stacking boxes. Same here. I've been using them at home and work for years and they are absolutely fantastic; we've probably got well…

That was a TV presentor from a children's programme called Blue Peter. If you think that looks dicey, search for the video of when another Blue Peter presenter,John Noakes, cleaned Nelsons Column in Trafalgar Square.…
We had an office worker who became obsessed about dehydrating, undoubtedly after watching too much social media. She carried the bottle everywhere. She arrived at work one day in a state of panic because her water…

I don't have a lot to add other than I'm still using a T61p several times a week. It's got by far the best screen[1] I've ever had on a laptop and the keyboard is also lovely. It's running Win7 and I only use it for RDP…

I believe the issue with straws is they were hard to recycle because they were lightweight and often mingled with other materials, such as cups, napkins, and food waste. They were generally made from PP which is widely…
> Why we allow making packages (especially for take-away food from pseudo-paper (which is a paper with plastic coating), which is not recyclable at all and, in fact, I agree that plastic is in most cases a better…
> I've also heard that unscrewed bottle-caps, or other small plastics also fall in the common waste dump at the facility. The EU, and UK, recently brought in legislation where the bottle caps are tethered to the bottle.…
