Toast

Wouldn't that make a great fairground shooting gallery.

I nearly didn't make it today. RBL service was in our village so felt I ought to go. Set the alarm for 0900, woke up just before, switched the alarm off and the next thing I knew it was 1015 Rapidly dressed and put face on, fed the dog and took short cut through the fields to arrive at the church as the parade did. Decent turnout.

Yes, so I was wrong to speak of prepositions. Apparently its "a phrasal verb, where 'on' is an adverb".

In this case I would expect most people to have seen the crying meme. I've never watched Dawsons Creek or anything that JvdB has been in, but I am very familiar with that image. He was also mentioned in the Hospitalised thread recently. No! The facility to express exasperation is very much needed here. It isn't always aimed at the poster, but the subject of the post.

Here's another thing that's crept in. The Princess of Wales watched on from the balcony of the Foreign Office "Watch" doesn't need a preposition. "Look" does - we can look on or look at. Looking on is broadly the same as watching, in the the context of a scene.

Then you get Crowdsourced DL and multiple "shadow DL" threads. That's more than enough.

Norman Tebbit replaces Trevor Sorbie in my squad. New no 3 sub - yes - Jody Gormley, please.

Blimey, that was quick.

In the words of Maurice Chevalier, I'm Glad I'm Not Young Any More.

The reason they show it is because he walked out! If he hadn't, it wouldn't have been so memorable.

I am feeling awful because I just killed a barn owl It was sitting in the middle of the road facing away from me and it just looked like a piece of litter. At the last second it turned to face me and I saw what it was, but it was far too late to avoid it. So sad.

That must have been a relief for him.

Stupid name.

Yes, but as others point out, the ignored posts still appear in quotes.

There's nothing at all to connect Cannan with Suzy Lamplugh. No evidence that they ever met, at least nothing that's been made public and nothing that persuaded the CPS. He was a vile creature, but I don't think he dunnit. 'The Prison Service confirmed his death at HMP Full Sutton and added: “As with all deaths in custody, the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman will investigate.” ' Hmmm, doesn't sound as though it was straightforward.

Yes, you're right. But as we've just had a reigning Queen for 70 years, 'Queen Camilla' is the way to go to avoid confusion. No, what did she say?
