WorDazza @JimBo452020 Don't knock Peter Falk. Columbo is probably the greatest TV detective of all time.

WorDazza @TheHorse We have a TV channel in the UK which shows old American drama shows. Sunday is usually wall to wall Columbo.

WorDazza Absolutely spot on. They need to rename it to something more appropriate.

Vivek Ramaswamy is running for president of the US of A! And he wants college students to run a mile!!! He proposes they run a mile as part of the SAT entrance test. This might be no easy feat. Many students are very smart...

WorDazza @db20747 Indeed! I would recommend the story "The Machine Stops" by E.M. Forster. Originally published in 1909 it's an uncanny glimpse into the future of humanity.

WorDazza Aside from some exceptional cases due to illness and other health conditions I find it an absolute disgrace that a teenager can't run a mile. As we (that's the entire Western world) seem to be in the midst of a mental health crisis there isn't enough emphasis...

WorDazza Call me cynical but I hardly think it's a coincidence that there have been a couple of fresh 'sightings' of Nessie just as the newly re-vamped Loch Ness Centre has opened.

WorDazza They've just started popping up on the M60 very recently. Maybe there's been a surge in the number of people running out of fuel in these parts.

WorDazza @marguicha All houses in the UK built after 1990 have to have a water meter but there are a huge number of old houses which haven't had meters retro-fitted. If an area is considered to have severe water shortages then the water companies can fit meters...

My landlord puts the rent up every year. Normally I wouldn't have a problem with this as it was only allowed to be raised by 2% because of a rent cap. Recently, the province raised the rent cap from 2% to 5% of the monthly rent....

WorDazza Just be thankful you live somewhere that has rent caps. There are no such thing as rent caps in the UK. Basically landlords can charge whatever they can get away with and in a lot of the major cities, where demand for accommodation is high, being a landlord...
