Well, we would say that, wouldn't we?   ;D

Materials that make good conductors of electricity—most metals, for instance—have a low amount of resistivity because they are made of atoms whose electrons are free enough to be set in motion; whereas insulators such as wood or rubber have molecular structures that prohibit electron movement.

In Tongan villages, it is common practice for children to be raised by older relatives rather than by their biological parents.

The star-nosed mole has 22 appendages covering its nose. They are so sensitive that they can detect earthquakes before they happen.

It sounds like possibly popups playing in the background.  I've not used it myself, but I've heard good things about uBlock Origin:

« Last post by KRO on May 02, 2025, 14:53 »
Hi, I wonder if anyone can help with this, I watch hours of fishing video's and catch up tv on my laptop but I keep getting random music / adverts playing over whatever I'm watching, which can often drown out whatever I am watching so I end up pausing it until the sound stops, which is most annoying (as I've put up with this for ages now)  >:(
Can anyone suggest a simple solution to this please ?

many TIA Keith

Sad news.

I broke up with my girlfriend Lorraine because I was seeing another girl named Claire Lee.

But the good news is that I can see Claire Lee now Lorraine has gone.
