Didn't they buy jungle.com and then balls that up?
That was very much like Amazon.
They once sent me a GameCube when I ordered some blank CDs.

Jungle

There is something evolving here

jungle.com

"...there is new technology coming all the time and Reform's position is let's do this scientifically..."
You could say exactly the same about green energy.

I managed to go through school with little to no religious teaching and didn't step foot in a church for a service (a christening) until I was in my 20s.
I find them all really, really fucking weird and got by with talking animals in Aesops Fables thanks very much.

Oh it's a stupid idea/opinion but the old way used to work... come to think of it you could buy tickets at a venue that was local to you too. They must have been part of some network.
I doubt it would stop people who weren't really that interested but were buying just so they could say they'd been.

Record shops used to sell tickets.
As did bus stations where you got a ticket/coach combo.

A lot of old films/music etc are still lingering because of nostalgia - generally grown men eulogising about average fare like Goonies/Gremlins or wearing Michael J Fox trainers or a Raw Deal t-shirt or building Star Wars Lego or buying a Spectrum or listening to T'Pau or somesuch.

Anyone can do it

You should seek out a Butter Pie.

Thatcher would've sent in the SAS.

It was all about money. And Trump.

I see what you did there.

The higher up the ladder in business, the more psychopathic people are.
Any normal human being would take more time off the richer they got.

ELO the band Wings could have been.

Fair. I can get from where I am to Manchester or Liverpool from the possibly the most convenient place in the North West.

I went to an Essex/Lancs crossover "do" last year.
The pie mash and liquor came a very poor second place to pie, mushy peas and gravy.

I have a friend who gets hold of "edibles".
I won't lie, I was talking it for fun because I gave up smoking over 10 years ago but it's like a miracle for my back.
I did get quite dependant for a while but I've learned to regulate now.

Not unlike every poorly home made burger I ever make.

It seems very divisive, however I honestly don't give a shit either way.

Javier Milei had to beg a bail-out and already needs another. Argentina's economy is in a tailspin. Gov't bonds and peso in freefall. People starving, throwing rocks at him.

Farage last year: "He's amazing. It's Thatcherism on steroids. Cutting and slashing expenditure. That's leadership."
