    Sorry snubbie. The rate of obesity in us is higher than the rate in uk. But bluntly, both countries have a problem with it. You might take some solace that us is not in the top ten of countries with the highest obesity rates. Yet.

    It was my daughter's school photo day today.

    The school made all the kids wear masks, so we have a photo of 18 kids posing for the photo, all wearing face masks. You can hardly tell which is which.

    UK schools certainly know how to hit you up for school trips.
    It's not compulsory, but the kids will benefit from it and also the teachers getting a free holiday.
    What's wrong with Snowdonia from a geological perspective?

    It's like them teachers that take the piss and decided on skiing trips to Winnipeg instead of Europe.

    This is by far the most expensive imhe...

    2x 4 nights in Iceland, Geography field trip .

    Only £1350 each!!!!

    I could have been a 4 week millionaire in Thailand for that sort of money.

    I can absolutely guarantee that taking 20+ kids skiing is not a holiday for the teacher.

    Even more so in Winnipeg, where there aren't any mountains.

    Got roughly 105 days until retirement which means 72 workings days and find out today my car needs a new engine. The dealer wants roughly $12,000.00 to fix it.

    Now get this … I bought the car brand new off the lot in 2012 and it’s got just a little under 60,000 miles on it.

    It’s a 2012 Obamalet Impala LTZ.

    My round trip to work is 6-7 miles a day so gonna try to milk it to retirement.

    A 10 yr old car with 60k miles needs a new engine?

    Doesn't sound right. Unless you forgot to put in some delicious coolant.


    6-7 miles? Walk or cycle. You have legs, don't be a lazy-dill.

    … regarding walking my fat ass up and down these hills …

    Forgot to mention it pretty much was parked from 2014-2017 … little more than 3 years last time I was in Japan.

    How the hell can it need a new engine? That simply sucks, and see why you are moaning.

    Sorry bro but what in the hell made you decide on that car. Bland is being polite.

    At the time back in 2012 I had just returned from 8 straight years overseas. And all I wanted was a basic car. Not interested in anything with bells and whistles. A family sedan basically. The cheapest, decent model I could find. For the lowest price. But brand new. Heck, I’d decline power windows if I had the option.

    Not a big fan of funerals. Just spent a few days doing the whole wake/funeral thing. Nothing worse than sitting in a church for an hour in 30 degree heat! All for a good cause anyway.

    Lying in a coffin in one is probably not much better, eh.
