That is so lame.
Marks and Spencer introduced this and I simply don't bother shopping there anymore. Its smug environmentalism that is not based on facts, but rather observer bias as suggested in the article by the minster announcing it. Bags are unsightly, therefore they must be taxed. If they want unsightly the Lib Dems should check out the fat bergs in the sewers.
Well shopping is taxed at 20%. Got to make it even more irritating now when going shopping having someone at the checkout evil eye you on the bags you use. The UK getting increasingly lame every year.

The charge ... will begin after the 2015 election
A devious plan to leave the next government to introduce an unpopular policy. The only way it could go wrong is if the conservatives win the next ... no, wait; there's no possible way it could go wrong.

None; this is the Lounge, not a programming forum.

Good answer ! But it is frequented by programmers / or whatever we're called these days.

I live in Woking, near the Maybury Pub. I usually spend a few hours each week sitting round in a building just off ledger Drive, near the Hare Hill Club.

I think sitting where you do is infinitely better than sitting in Hare Hill club.

We hold quite a few of our branch meetings in the Club, but I'm not sure I'd want to be a regular there.

I think there's a fair bit of interbreeding type "goings on" in there.

Serious drawback with that logic: some people only know VB...

But only in sentences, written, composed of words containing only the first seven letters. Plus some stuff based upon superstition.

So a tooth broke. Fractured in the gum leaving the root tip in the bone. Bit down on a frozen snickers bar. 3 weeks ago. Been sort of painful and wobbly but you get used to it.
Anyway, went to the dentist today and he tugged it out. Broken top bit came out pretty easy - by the time he said you won't feel a thing I didn't feel a thing.
Then he had to work out the tip embedded into my jaw. That did make me wince.
So now I'm a tooth down but at least it doesn't hurt and stopped bleeding pretty quickly. Course, I think the drugs he injected me with might be lulling me into a false sense of happiness.
Moral of that tale: frozen peanuts are bloody hard.
