Ram-Alf reacted to rynny in Smart Meters
I have had a similar email today. I have tried to get a smart previously, 9 months waiting list, week before my appointment and they cancelled it, didn't bother trying to rearrange.
No idea if it is a sly way getting people on a smart meter or not though.

Ram-Alf reacted to Comrade 86 in Paul Warne
Spot on Alf. There was zero commitment to a 3 year plan that I recall, quite the opposite in fact and quite how folk have used this to arrive at the belief that we'll be signing big names and looking to challenge from year one is beyond me.
Yet again, fans are setting themselves up and more critically, Warne and the players too, for another hard fall and a long season of discontent and all over a comment he never even made.

Ram-Alf got a reaction from Wolfie in Paul Warne
If this is the quote from Talk Sport...didn't PW say that Derby County were a premiership club and it could take 3 years or 10 years to get there.
If he's said this somewhere else apple ogies for butting in 😉

Ram-Alf got a reaction from Leeds Ram in Depression, anxiety, stress and other related issues
My Sons partner is a qualified Micro Biologist through Her term at University, Difficult to get a job in this field in Derby but ended up at a pest control company, Then moved to London...a couple of different jobs and then a move back to Derby, Got a job with Derbyshire Police as an analyst, Now uses her skills for the NCA...👍
There must be a huge pool of vacancies that @Leeds Ram can dip into, Even some that isn't on their radar 🤷♂️

Ram-Alf reacted to 1of4 in D-Day
As you rightly say the focus of the day was to show respect for those that participated on that day.
The audience were there to show thanks for what the fallen and those that survived had sacrificed.
I'm sure many amongst us would have liked to have been a member of that audience. But due to the limited seating available this would have been impossible. So like many similar events it's left to the country's leader to represent the the whole of our nation.
Unfortunately the nations was let down by the disgraceful antics of our Prime Minister.

Ram-Alf reacted to Van der MoodHoover in D-Day
Grandfather Moodhoover was called up to serve at D-Day at the age of 37 so it wasn't all young lads.
He refused to kill anyone so was a medic, rushing around Sword beach patching up as many as he could to keep them alive.
He didn't like to speak about the actual 6th June much. Too harrowing.

Ram-Alf reacted to Mucker1884 in D-Day
The first (main) thing that struck about these cemeteries (firstly the WW1 cemeteries in NE France & Belgium, then later the Normandy cemeteries) were just how pristine and orderly they are. Certainly every one we visited (and not just the Brit cemeteries either).
The good folk that tend to these graves and graveyards are an absolute credit.

Ram-Alf reacted to ImARam2 in D-Day
D-Day and the subsequent Battle of Normandy is such an emotional place.
Until a few years ago I had an apartment in Normandy, and I have been many times to these ceremonies, including being present in Bayeux Cathedral for the 65th D-Day commemorations, sitting just a few rows behind Prince Charles, as he was then.
The Bayeux cemetery is the largest for the fallen British servicemen and women, however, there are another 22 in the Normandy region, with the smallest called Jerusalem near the village of Chouain, which contains the body of the youngest British soldier, Jack Banks, who was just 16 years old when he was killed.
He'd actually joined up at the age of 15 and when his mother found out that he had been posted overseas she wrote to the War Office to have him returned to England. However, by the time the regiment in Normandy found out he had been killed.
There are dozens of such stories and I would recommend anyone to visit the towns and villages of this part of France, not only to take in the history but also the welcome the Normans give to the British visitor, with their wonderful food and drink, especially the Calvados!!
