Lost a crown, centre right.
Gappy!

Worst of it is ... a 99 Flake is what caused it to go. Arse.

Wobbled itself about over the ensuing 2 hours whilst I was visiting with one of my buddies ... and it finally fell out with my first mouthful of spicy chicken wings the minute I got home.

Not smiling till its fixed.
Mad

I lost a crown eating a small type of galaxy bar, like a ripple in shape. Not a toffee or a chewy sweet. It's still in my wallet. Embarassed

I've knocked my front teeth out then the crowns out through various mishaps over the years. One dentist wanted to fit gold ones, and charge me extra for natural colours, but I wouldn't pay, and he fitted the natural colours and not the gold ones anyway. I was slightly disappointed Laughing

Erm, it's coal. Best Welsh anthracite, large nuts Smile ("Black Diamond"). I get it on 1-ton pallets prepacked from Supaheat in Clydach. That pile's about 7' (2.13m) high.

BBC

Mucking about with Last Night of the Proms more each year, too much yakking, not enough music.

Obsessing over diversity and gender quotas so much, that it's starting to needlessly interfere with the content of programs.

Reading out the results of the Great North Run on the radio - Mo won, and FFS! not giving his time!

I've just read two hints at how to change the cover - one whilst eating burritos? Anyway, I'm now angry and off to cook something.
I think I have an anger issue with duvets.

Estate agent-esque speak in job descriptions.

"Exciting opportunity"

Quite what is exciting about being paid minimum wage with no enhancements for night shifts, working part-time in the small hours as a bus cleaner, out in the sticks, I'm not sure. Thinking

"Passionate"

Passionate, about street sweeping? Really?

The Stondon Motor Museum.

Visiting about 5 years ago I had pause for thought when I saw some examples of machines I used to ride on the road on display.

Now, looking it up to see when it's open, I see it closed in 2015, the collection has been broken up, and all its exhibits were all sold at auction.

It isn't actually.

Coal is plant matter, usually associated with ancient raised mires formed by deltaic river systems, that has been preserved as peat, then buried by sediment deposition and changed first into lignite (brown coal), then into increasingly pure forms of coal with the purest being anthracite. It's also possible for high carbon coal to be metamorphasised into graphite given enough pressure and heat. The whole process takes millions of years.

Charcoal is wood that has been heated in a very low oxygen environment for a day or two in order to drive off water and other volatiles.

yeah, I vaguely remember it closing, as we tried to look at it never did, and it had very sporadic opening times. Can't remember the reason now.

Family friend has a private collection of old cars and trucks, not quite one hundred in the collection, hand carts, horse carts, milk and farm industry stuff too. Not a museum, no private viewings by arrangement, just has them, he shows his friends round sometimes, and rents them out to movie sets sometimes. Knocking on a bit, and he was talking about his kids are not interested, so probably all get sold when he dies.
