    Open letter to TFL LEZ - Legalised Highway Robbery

    I have sadly had ZERO response from TFL to my earlier email, so have now sent them both a snail-mail 20/8 and an email copy 26/8 about this appalling but true example of the Brutality of the Mayor of London's Penal System. The redacted version of my final missive is below. 20/08 snailmail =...

    My New Security Garden Gate

    It looks excellent Mike, but..... and I hate to have to say this.... it falls well short on the Security front. If you find broken glass shards on the top unsightly, I would at least have expected razor wire across the top. Any self-respecting thief will scale that in no time, unless you beef up...

    I would think that you'll be fine sending the like of what of what you posted as an example..... Just declare them as "Manufactured wooden items" or suchlike. AQIS (Australian Quarantine and Inspection Services) are the lot that police "biosecurity" type matters, and they are particularly...

    Why so long?

    Regardless of who needs to confirm the results and type up the results and the number of people being x-rayed, the pace of communicating results in a case like this is simply pathetic. The state pays plenty of dosh into the system and the system should react far quicker than that.... In fact it...

    Are we much different from these monkeys?

    Same thing applies to the Himba people of Namibia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Himba_people.

    Reasons for Emigration Thinks......

    The supermarket just stopped me buying more than 2x16 dispersible aspirins in one shop as they are prevented from doing so by some utterly ridiculous legislation! How more of a nanny state can we become? :shock: Hear Ye, Hear Ye, Hear Ye, Ye pathetic ruling-class prats in and around...
