Special delivery (signed for post) is pointless

Because the Postman, during COVID (and it has continued since), has signed on the machine himself when pushing the letter through the letterbox, so I have had no need to go to the depot, as I used to have to do.

Hard luck if that is an important legal document that times out because you have failed to pick it up.

The prisons are loaded with criminals imprisoned by Democrats.

If Trump is convicted, he should be imprisoned.

It is easy to spend some time on the computer checking out the prices of many places. From here Home Depot may be cheaper than another can ship for, but I have to add in $ 5 to $ 10 worth of gas and an hour of my time as the store is a good distance away.

The same that many homes have shutters at the windows that will not shut.

Friends of mine live in a rural location and even in the local larger town that is approx 10 miles away the physical shops cannot compete on price with the shops I use in my town of 200,000+ people. When I visit them I find that food can be 30%* more expensive and hardware/electrical goods are priced to reflect no local competition.

*4 pints of milk around £2.20 where at home I pay £1.50(ish) etc.

They do not really want to jail Trump, just get him off the ballot. Just like the Republicans are fooling around with impeaching Biden. Anything for a win in the election.

Legal documents is how I can verify that my RM post is being delayed in the system by a week or more. My brothers and I are receiving identical legal documents all sent on the same day by the same solicitor or official registrar. My brothers live in different postal areas and get their documents long before mine turn up in my letter box.

They should do a plea bargain. We wont field Biden if you dont field Trump.

Your 'village main street' has two electrical retailers!!?? Our village main street has no shops at all, and hasn't had for fifty years or more. Are you sure you live in a village? :-)

Granted. But a lot of houses without even decorative shutters look like a person without eyebrows.

I want to jail Trump. The photos of classified documents from Mar-a-Lago are enough for me to say "lock him up". My husband and everybody he knows sweated bullets every time they handled classified materials, and that idiot treats them like toilet paper.

Of course, what I really want is for him to die on the toilet in mid-tweet, sooner rather than later.

Just like the GOP used to believe, Democrats believe dangerous criminals should be locked up.

I used to have those. I took them off and never replaced them. I don't like fake stuff.

What's wrong with Trump? He seems to be more honest and competent than the clutch of Prime ministers we have had in UK in the past 4 years. If you don't want him send him over here and let him campaign for a wall down the middle of the English channel to stop the illegal immigrant boat people. He could also make the French pay for it, assuming that he knows were France is.

Hear hear. Or a true 'Act of God', like being struck by lightning.

The answer to the original question is that my door had the knocker long before the doorbell.

Removing it would leave large holes, and in any case people would just knock with their hand.

Where I regularly visit most villages have no shops and many longer any pubs. One village has a small, but expensive, Spar convenience store and two others have very limited opening times stores run by "community volunteers", and one of these is a glorified garden shed.

The f***er wasnt prepared to accept the fact that he lost the election and attempted to get his goons to storm the Capitol and kill Pence who could in theory anul the election he lost.

What is honest about denying the fact he lost the election ?

He isnt eligible to be a pom politician.

Just like he did with Mexico eh ?

He does know where Syria is and did a much better job f****ng it over along with Putin than any other prez in modern times since WW2

Just a small modification and you could have the knocker ringing the door bell.

A knock sensor could even do it if someone knocked with their hand.

I am actually working on that.
