Powerpoints: no power from the outlet by the Smoking Room, only one of two has power on The Lounge. 
I buy two fittings from the Chain Hardware store, wrapped in plastic I can't assess the rear face. 
The replacement has a quite different wall profile, larger, so that when cut, the user cannot return to the mainstream PowerPoint supplier.

The replacement is in very good condition, but its too late and rainy to fit this evening.

My great grandmother passed in midlife & her daughter, my grandmother, had several skin grafts on her nose to manage skin cancer.  Last month my younger brother Pete had a ...

mass political deception

On the day a gunman nicked ex president Trump's ear the world politcians decried violence as evil, undemocratic & so on, more than 39 people were killed in Palestine. These events highlight mass hypocrisy across the world with regards violence & race.  No one in the media industry will ever mention this hypocrisy.
