<r>I grew up in Canada so paying to shop is a bit strange for me. Lucky both the missus and I work near town so can park for free but Â£5/hr is a bit steep. If I had to pay that I'd drive somewhere else or not park in the parking lot. My idea was to send a few thousand e-mails to the boss of NCP and...

<r>The company that runs most of the car parking here in Brighton has just raised prices up to Â£5/hr to go shopping in the city centre. That works out at CDN$7.66/hr or US$7.20. Do they charge where you live for parking when shopping or is it free? Since the minimum wage here is Â£5.93/hr a lot of ...

<r>Here is a radical idea..how about driving a smaller car that gets better mileage so there won't be such a big demand for gas--then they won't drill for as much-- in harder to reach places which are more hazardous.

<r>I remember watching a show about pole shifts, as I recall it happens over a few million years not overnight and it is the magnetic poles not the north for the south poles. If you are waiting for the skies to suddenly fly past I don't think it will happen that way. See even a quick goog...

<r>This is from another forum I use but it brings up a question I have often wondered about--why does your voting slip have a number on it??? An anonymous letter, published in Brightonâ€™s Evening Argus (16th June 2001), reports verbatim a conversation between a female interviewer for a l...

Most viewers doesn't mean that they all agree with Fox. I've seen it a few times but more out of entertainment about how stupid or unbelievable they can be. It just shows how many--not how many think it's good reporting.........those figures would probably be a bit different..:yh_rotfl

We are the only animal that can injure or kill from a distance and gather food without even being there(traps snares etc). This gave us spare time to do other things than just eat so our brains developed. Bigger brains better tech easier hunting even more spare time......:-6:-6

One of the reasons why tills had bells and prices were .99 cents. You had to always make change so you had to open the till and when the bell went ding the owner knew the till had been opened. Either lock it or get the owner to put in security cameras and let everyone know why..........:sneaky:

Unfortunately bullies work on the fear of all the others that they will be next that's why so many join in. Common in the workplace as well with many managers saying that they are "firm" with the employees. What they mean is they get off on the fear they believe they get back.
