As most people I have many passwords for different things - the worst has to be the FSA - Must contain 8 letters, one capital, one number and a symbol.

I just put my usual password in brackets - job done

I use an App to generate and remember all logins and passwords, along with bank details, card details, identities and other shit. It's painless as fuck then. Not that that helps with changing your pc login.

Expect a lot of us will remember when the two roundabouts either side of the railway line were replaced with 4 (2 on each side) around 25 years ago - in what was then considered a forward thinking design.  I wonder what changed.  Why not just go for the single, big roundabout approach from the start?

I always assumed the 4 roundabout design was a copy of the magic roundabout, or if not it worked in a similar way.

The four roundabouts worked well, if one was busy you could use another.

If your kids have friends round to play, or to have tea, then they're having friends round.  Under no circumstances are they having a 'play date'.  If ever you find yourself using that phrase, either #### off or move to the US where the terminology seems to be acceptable.  It isn't here.  Ever.

Getting punted off the road by some cheating yank cunt on the second to last lap of an online race. He'd been trying for 5 laps to pass me, couldn't do it, so just spins me off, then acts like it was an accident. CUNT.[/rage]

This is what you see 2 mins after getting off the ferry at Dover:

Welcome to the UK

And this is what you'll see in Calais:

Bienvenue en France

British town planning is so fucked up.

Seems I spoke too soon.  Ironically, it is just off to the left of the picture above from the outskirts of Calais that the migrant shanty town has grown up.

Guardian: Calais' Official Shanty Town

I shudder to think what some people are prepared to do to get over here.  Is it really worth it?  Honestly?

But I don't have a lot of sympathy with the local government in Calais that is making the point vociferously that the Calais problem is really the UK's problem, and that we should be doing more.  If you sign up to Schengen, and willingly/knowingly dismantle your border controls with all of the countries that you share a land border with on mainland Europe, surely you have to accept the consequences of that.  If, after allowing thousands of migrants to pass freely in to France from Italy and elsewhere, those migrants gravitate to Calais...how is that the fault of the UK government?  I don't get it.

Cyclists in London, why are you running red lights and going the wrong way around roundabouts? It's terrifying for me

The red lights bit is everywhere.
See it on a daily basis on the way to work, pretty sure they don't think the highway code applies to them.
