However numerous present and former Grove members buy enough time for the characters to re-write the ending so that the club will remain open forever. Wow, that is so fucking shit. Quote
Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted April 3, 2019 Paid Members Posted April 3, 2019 That's the ending I had written for the UKFF, can't believe I accidentally plagiarized BG. Quote
Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted April 21, 2019 Paid Members Posted April 21, 2019 Today I learned Katie Holmes (❤️) has played Jackie O/Kennedy twice in two completely different things, playing the same real person twice has got to be pretty rare. Also I had no idea the gay black cop Julian from the best TV series ever The Shield murdered his wife a few years ago. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/may/20/the-shield-michael-jace-arresed-wifes-shooting-death Quote
Paid Members Gus Mears Posted May 8, 2019 Paid Members Posted May 8, 2019 TIL that UK Motorway numbers aren't sequential. The only good thing I have ever found on LinkedIn. Quote Ever wondered why the first motorway in the UK was the M6? or why indeed any of the numbers are what they are? There is a reason. Road classification work started in 1913 which ultimately split the country into 9 zones. 1-6 that fan out clockwise from London and a further 3 that fan out 7-9 from Edinburgh. The M1 runs right up the middle of the country on the edge of zone 1. The next motorway clockwise around is the M11 - make sense? Smaller trunk roads (A&B) also follow this convention, which means you know where in the country you are by the road number. The reason the first motorway build was the M6, is because it runs along the edge of zone 6. Quote

So you can use a Lloyd’s one for Barclays, NatWest etc and vice versa. Handy if you use two banks and have lost one of your doofers. TIL that those doofers you use to log into an online bank are called a PIN Sentry. Quote

I have a type of business account with Nat West for the football team. Despite not having a card on the account, they helpfully sent me a card machine to access the online banking. Fortunately, the app came along and did away with the need for it. Quote

I have a NatWest business account, and the fuckers made it seem like it was optional when they sent me the paperwork. Come the first payment I had to make over £300, and it turned out I actually needed one. Had to call them up to order, then wait another ten days. Thankfully the client was quite understanding. Quote
