Sorry? Pardon? What?

I agree with this poster's opinions on this subject.

Imagine if the greens got the same media coverage & hype like Nigel Faright's Reform?!

Media hype making it out as though Reforms got majority support to sway the floating voters.
Reality is most would prefer an alternative like the Greens who address real issues instead of pandering to xenophobia

This is fascinating

Merriam-Webster @merriam-webster.com · 1d

Printing presses kept their letters in cases.

Capital letters went in the upper case.
Smaller letters went in the lower case.

This is why we say ‘UPPER CASE’ and ‘lower case.’

Ok, but what did we call them before the invention of the printing press?

MAJUSCULE and minuscule.

Nick Lansbury 🦋 @thecodecutter.bsky.social · 1d

In French, it's majuscules and minuscules 🇫🇷

Ah ok, I'll play. I wonder if Jordan Brown can tempt him to Blackpool. Bigger club than us and close to Manchester.

Mr 'ear, what's happening?

I'll watch this later. I'm too busy laughing at Trump not winning the Nobel peace prize at the moment 😂

I'm loving the jump in love for the Greens.

It;s so refeshing to hear what they are planning.

Zack Polanski @zackpolanski.bsky.social · 2d

Latest poll puts Greens just two points behind Labour. When I said we weren't here to be disappointed in Labour but to replace them, I meant it.

Join us and let's make hope normal again.

Poll from find out now showing greens on 15 and labour and Tories on 17. Reform on 32.

My grandson is in year 7. He knows I love maths. He enjoyed showing me the work they did this week, which ties in perfectly with your post.

I'd actually enjoy learning this all over again.

This sounds positive doesn't it? I'm interested to see how this pans out.

Zack Polanski @zackpolanski.bsky.social · 2d

Not only are we at record numbers of members and growing every day - this is our highest ever poll rating.

We're just getting started.

This is the politics of the 99% Vs the 1% for a country we can all afford to live in - plenty of room to grow.

Pete, for heaven's sake, just STOP IT!!!!

You're doing my head in 🤔

HAHA I read that about five times before I got the joke 🤦

I remember going to computer exhibitions in the UK and watching vendors demo games, but using cracked versions and mumbling their way through the intro text where groups would rib each other on the scrollers 😂

...and now, for no apparent reason, I feel the need to know if the test passed 🙄

Thanks goalbot, but can you update your photo of Aaron to one in a Leyton Orient shirt please? #LOFC

"Lively raider, right winger Mike Bullock"?

I must have missed that in the early 70s when I used to watch the O's in person.

Great centre forward though.

Mickey Bullock went on to play for Halifax and then manage them ⚽️
