Yeah, totally, it's just interesting how much a single word can screw up my brain's ability to read something. I also realise my tone in that post made it look like I was having a go but it was just meant to be an observation. :)

You have to sometimes, if they're stiff or the item you're posting only just fits.

Indeed, sometimes when it's a little stiff you have to use the fingers to get it open...

Can't say we've really noticed the trump/kim extravaganza this week. The roads have been a lot quieter but but i think that is more to do with this being the local school holiday - a lot of people are out of the country this week. Perhaps the Singapore government planned it that way....

Why nuke, just a standard airstrike should be sufficient; less collateral damage and whatnot.

Next year, they should attempt to emulate Moscow's VE day celebrations. Apparently the entire city went on a hell of a bender and the great metropolis was drunk dry.

In the run-up to the local elections I was channel hopping and chanced upon a Lib Dem party political broadcast. It took me a few moments to remember that he was actually their leader now.
