I had to smile at one parent complaining his son was moved out of the heat in South Korea and was sleeping on the floor π³
Had he not realised that doing so is part of the scouting movement and that he had been in a tent on the floor up until then π

ET to start WW3 ? (Edited)

I need a new microwave - (mine conked out last week - starts then stutters to a halt. Have explored the very few "local" repairers - call out charge is 40.00 plus - and it must be 15 years old, at least). I need one that does at least what ours did - defrost and autocook programmes
But thinking of taking the opportunity to get a combination one and save energy. Has anyone any experience of these?

Which report on cash machines --can you remember them all?
TOP TIPS
Look for any scratches, glue residue, tape or parts of the machine which look slightly different in colour or newer than the rest. Check if the LED light above the card slot is missing.
Wiggle the machine to see if it's attached properly.
Check the card slot. It may be slightly wider than usual if it's hiding a skimmer.
Check the keypad. Fake keypads may feel slightly loose or thick and spongy.
Check if there are any holes in the machine, as these could be a sign of a hidden camera.
Be aware of people around you and cover the keypad with your free hand when entering your details.
Consider using a machine in a busy area or inside a bank branch where itβs harder for fraudsters to tamper with it. -
Has anyone seen this "Maaate" campaign by Sadiq Khan.
It is meant to stop men being sexist by asking other men to say "maaate" like a sheep baa-ing whenever one of their mates starts talking about women.
It's pathetic -
A four-day summit held in India last week by some of the worldβs wealthiest nations ended without a commitment to phase down fossil fuels or to increase the development of renewable energy, largely because of opposition from

I'm definitely in agreement with this....
I saw this on Facebook and thought Iβd share.
DEAR ASDA, MORRISONS, SAINSBURYS, TESCO AND ALL OTHER STORES THAT HAVE SELF CHECKOUT!
You are heading towards almost exclusively self-checkout now.
Yesterday I was at Asda, the lady checking receipts at the exit was stopping everyone.
I didn't choose to participate in that nonsense, I had already filled my trolly, emptied my trolly and scanned the items, refilled my trolly and so I just skipped the exit line and left.
I heard her saying "umm - Excuse me β as I kept walking and raised the receipt above my head, leaving the store.
You can either trust me to do self-checkout, or you can put your cashiers back in place like it used to be.
β’ I'm not interested in proving that I did your job for you.
β’ If you want me to be a cashier with no training then that's your problem not mine.
β’ Keep employing young people and give them job opportunities.
YOU DON'T PAY ME TO SCAN MY OWN SHOPPING.
YOU DONβT GIVE ME STAFF DISCOUNT FOR WORKING FOR YOU.
Signed ......All of us

Action Fraud has warned that scammers are infiltrating WhatsApp groups.
This 'account takeover' scam starts with the scammer gaining access to an account on your contacts list. They then pose as the contact in messages to you.
Around the same time, you'll receive a six-digit authentication code from WhatsApp. The scammer will claim they sent you their code by accident and ask you to share it with them.
Once the criminal has your code, they can log into your WhatsApp account and lock you out.
Action Fraud has received 268 reports of this scam since January and says fraudsters are targeting religious and community groups.
Make sure you set up two-step verification on WhatsApp your account and never share a verification code. -
