Just caught the story this evening. If this group within RBS have trashed businesses and individuals to make a 'quick buck' identify them, identify who worked in this group and no matter where they may be in the world now and lock them up! We live in a pissant swamp! - MR2

I was helping my niece (14) complete her Global Warming Project when she mentioned the plight of POLAR BEARS and how their predicament made her feel unhappy. Trying to raise some humour, I said 'look .... some animals of the world have simply past their sell-by date' Guess which of Uncle...

Last weekend my son Chris married Jasmine (a gorgeous and very clever lady from Stockholm). His brother was best man and a few months ago asked if I might put a few ideas together for his speech. The following is the middle draft (me to him to his partner, back to me back to him etc) and...

This is going to make me sound like a real numpty but … I have a Samsung phone (on a T mobile contract which I am closing down) and wish to start afresh with a pay as you go contract (preferably EE). Can anyone tell me if it is simply a case of buying an EE sim card and top up? TIA – MR2

There are canes fixed to a fence around our patio and recently I have heard a regular scratching sound. At first I thought it was a mouse underneath gnawing away at the wood but this afternoon I saw the culprit. A wasp was scraping its rear end (stinger end) on the cane it was clinging to. Did...

I cannot believe this extract from the BBC News this morning: 'In a statement, the mayor's office said purchasing the cannon now for just over £218,000, before Theresa May approves them, meant they could be bought at a "considerably reduced rate". The cannon will be purchased for £30,000 each...

Around 1979-1982 I was part owner of 'Castle Pride' and unfortunately victim of a 'busted' plot. Over our Christmas table the event resurrected itself. My memory was that CPs 'busted plot' run at Perth was its first or second run. But my Dad reckons it had previously run and won 6 times. I...

Before I start, TB has run within my family so I know a little bit about it but .... Just read on the BBC that the shooting cull is falling behind so the authorities have a plan to use GASS. Maybe my sick humour but is it not just a few weeks ago that we were on the verge of war over the use...

Hiya Guys, Daughter (now junior doctor) going to live in a caravan in Harrogate. She needs to use her laptop what is the best/cost effective way of doing this. No movies just surfing the net. She has an 'orange' network mobile. TIA - MR2

I had an interest in the 8:20 Tipperary (came 3rd), what happened on the final bend is worth a watch, if only to learn lessons! Commiserations to connections. MR2

See Oddschecker - Think Stan James odds compiler got the numbers wrong. Sorry too late, think they've realised! MR2

I don't know if there is any interest in this but the saga began about 13:30 Thursday 21/09/2013 when I realised to increase my betting account (although it was already in credit to about £500) I needed to update my payment details. I struggled to understand the issues until a live chat with...

Been getting texts from MMF about calling them to arrange an appointment. I believe they are a debt collection agency but I am in the happy position of having a mortgage and not much else. I have not responded to the texts, I never reply to any communication unless I know who they are and in...

I fancy PP for a number of reasons in the main by ruling out many others. But, the favorite (My tent ...) has the same ownership and crossed my mind that PP might be there to set the race up for the other. Anyone with an opinion? Do I half-max on PP or full on ... MR2

I've lost all my filename icons on my task bars and favoutites, all thats left is white folder envelope and the name. Anyone know how to recover them? Thanks - MR2

Given that many Scots may want independence, but retain UK status in many ways. I would love to see Cameron walk away from Europe and then see what Mr Sleezy Salmond will do. Just to emphasise, I have no great feelings for membership or otherwise of the Euro zone but there appears so many...
