Nose ring or septum piercing? The former can be quite nice looking, the latter... not so much. Such piercings don't annoy me and people are free to stick metal through whichever parts of themselves they choose, but I've never seen one of those that contributed positively to someone's appearance. Must be a hassle wiping your nose too.GogLais wrote: βMon Feb 08, 2021 12:38 pmThere are also nose rings to consider.FalseBayFC wrote: βMon Feb 08, 2021 12:18 pm Toe rings. Disgusting things!

I live in a hill waking honeypot. We have drone, as do a lot of our neighbours. They are useful tools when you live and work in the country for their ability to scan a lot of ground fast. My drone cost nearly Β£2k. If someone was throwing stones at it when I was flying legally, I'd be waiting at the bottom of the hill with a shotgun (metaphorically). Some of the commercial drones used by farms and estates round here are up to Β£5k. On what planet is it acceptable to potentially cause thousands of pounds of damage just because you feel your day out was spoiled?

What if several drone enthusiasts arrive and start buzzing near a farmhouse. Not spying or intruding just making a racket? Not sure what your laws are around their use in the UK but it certainly is a legal area that needs looking at. I agree on their value in rural areas. They are great for livestock and we use them especially for sheep in mountainous areas where stock theft is a problem. The VTOL fixed wings can stay up for 5 hours. Those are used extensively in rhino conservation.weegie01 wrote: βMon Feb 08, 2021 2:49 pmI had resolved not to come over here, but given most Scottish posters from PR had, I thought I'd come over for a look at what they were saying about the match.

"Dating app Bumble, which made its name by putting women in charge of making contact with potential mates, has soared to a market value of more than $13bn after listing shares."
What kind of crazy arse share valuation is that. That valuation would put it as the equivalent of a top 50 share on the Footsie.
A fricking dating app. FFS

Totally. Start on time, stick to the agenda and get out when it's done (unless free beer is available during said meeting).Jimmy Smallsteps wrote: βFri Feb 12, 2021 1:17 am Poor meeting discipline.

My lot are the opposite. More time than required is consistently booked in "Just in case". Earlier I was settled in for a 1 and half hour meeting that lasted 40 minutes. While I don't mind getting the time back it's a bit tedious and just reveals that the presenter/chair hasn't planned very well.Jimmy Smallsteps wrote: βFri Feb 12, 2021 1:17 am Poor meeting discipline.

You write them a polite nice letter (you don't want to get the landlord involved), telling them you are a carer and you do not give them your consent, as the safety and security of the people you look after is being placed in jeopardy, and because I don't want to be filmed six times a day coming and going into my home.....and don't want people to know when I am away from the vulnerable people I take care of, or out of my flat, I'm weird?
Tempted to buy a camera and stick it on the wall, in the corridor, directed at their front door. See how they like it.
We can all have fun with gaw'damned cameras.
