I would definitely go to one in Spain and then go up to every Brit there and ask how many days they're going to be able to stay there in the sun each year given the loss of free movement...

We have seen the police in France raid the offices of "X", and yet nothing in this country.

Quiet is OFCOM so weak and why are the police not taking action?

I must say I phrased that very badly.

Ofcom really needs to do its job properly. Somebody needs to lean on them I don't know who.

Any ideas?

Arla is Danish company

Arla LactoFREE: standard fresh milk, lactose removed, normal open life

Cravendale is an Arla brand: filtered for longer life, contains lactose unless specified

Cravendale Lactose Free: filtered and lactose removed, longest open life, usually most expensive

I'm not lactose intolerant but I did get a slight rash after having too much yoghurt and milk so this lactose-free milk basically has the same effect as lactase capsules but just as a natural part of the diet
February 9, 2026 at 12:07 PM
It was definitely something chemical going on with my experiment. I was very surprised that the result was so decisive.

I'm using lactose-free milk so as to increase the protein but keeping my lactose burden below 10 G per meal

The kit comes with a exothermic warming patch you apply for 2 minutes to open up the capillaries excellent result

This kit isn't just to make the testing easier it collects the blood from capillaries that are reliable in your upper arm rather than unreliable with pooled testosterone in fingertips

Randox Premium Male Hormone testing kit £43 🇬🇧 with Tasso collection device - last time I got an accurate T result.

The previous times I used fingerprint collection and although the other hormone readings were reliable, the T was completely wild and inaccurate (10x normal !)
