Late at night, why do programmes on TV channels such as Dave or Gold continue to have breaks when they have no ads to show.
To keep the programme schedules in order. Without a three or four minute break, the programmes would bunch up leaving an odd time slot at some point during the day which would be difficult to fill using a standard timed TV show.

pee and tea brake?It never even occurred to me that someone could be confused by the concept of reversible belts, how is it not blindingly obvious? Unless you are brown/black colour blind?

They don't stuff their faces with chicken nuggets, pot noodles, and chips at every opportunity from the age of three. Furthermore, they don't start smoking at the age of eight, and don't start drinking WKD from twelve onwards. something to do with no inbreeding under nazi rule MrMagoo said:

I'm browsing belts as I need a new one. Why would you want to buy a reversable belt over a normal one? The reversable ones seem slightly more expensive.
In case you put your trousers on back to front.Yeah sorry about the belt thing. I have noticed now that the reversable one is two colours. >_<
Silly question, but do CRB/criminal record checks (now called DBS) checks include driving license points? (like a spent IN10 from my yoof days). I suppose if you've never been in trouble with the law in any shape or form (not even a caution) then it would come back completely blank, correct?
The most I ever had was a rozzer telling me to get off my bike and walk (after asking them for directions) as I didn't have any lights on whilst cycling at night.

What are these? they hang on the power lines near some water on my way to work
I'm not sure the things in your picture are anything other than described previously in this thread, but you also see hanging from cables these things:.jpg/636px-Stockbridge_damper_(cropped).jpg)
They're simply dampers; which oscillate at the resonant frequency of the wire so that it doesn't start to swing wildly when just the right wind speed blows over it.

Last one I had didn't even throw up a caution for possession or a night in the cells for being drunk and disorderly as far as I know. If it did I was still cleared to work in schools without an escort.Silly question, but do CRB/criminal record checks (now called DBS) checks include driving license points?
