Apostrophe is an awfully long word for a single simple glyph isn't it? It's lucky we can just type '

Over here its the opposite. If someone slips over because you haven't cleared the path outside your house, you're legally liableOriginally posted by KathyWoolfe View PostIt's legally better to not clear your driveway of ice and snow than to clear it. This is because if you clear it and someone slips and injures themselves anyway they can sue you for being negligent in your actions. If you don't clear it then they have no action against you as the danger is apparent and the risk taken by walking on it is taken by the person who got injured.

Isn't this what Tyson's camp did at the weigh in with Bruno years ago?Originally posted by TimberWolf View PostThe last time I saw that done was Ricky Hatton to Floyd Mayweather at the weigh in
Remember hearing Nigel Benn, who was in Brunos camp, saying years later that when he saw that, he said seeya mate, your on your own.

First you correct my spelling and now I see you use hyphens in the correct place and might have a bigger vocabulary than I do.

Got any ice skates? World speed record...Originally posted by Alf W View PostWe live on a hill. It's minus 2 degrees outside and the road's still covered in frost and ice. The old duffer two doors down has pulled his car out onto the road and is washing the underneath with a hose pipe creating a nice ice-slick down the hill.
What should I do? Am half tempted to stick my head out of the window and shout "What the flip are you doing?"

Are you going to "nearly say something" or tell the old git where to get off?Originally posted by Alf W View PostIt gets better. The daft old runt has gritted the bit just outside his house. Well you wouldn't want any one to slip and fall outside your house eh? Obviously the slick he's created down the road isn't his problem.
20 mins 'til school run time. Could be fun!
