I don't know of any British people who actually liked Thatcher. She seems like your very own version of Reagan or George W Bush.
I was only 5 when she stopped being PM so I know nothing about her. I gather a load of people hated her but also that she ended a metric shit tonne of strikes.
She is getting a parade around London like Churchill did was he died. This will be footed by the Taxpayers I assume? Nice one Cameron.
I don't think the overall sentiment regarding Thatcher is of mourning. Seems almost jubilant really. Quite funny to see.
There are factions who still hate and the others who adore. Mad really since she has not been in the spotlight since she quit. There was some American woman on the news crying over her death earlier. Some people are weird. Just take the Dianna death. Random people who did not know her were crying and coming in drives to pray respects.
She said I can use the master phone socket once I start getting paid from work. As long as the phone can work while the internet is on/plugged in. So just put a filter in the phone socket when connected to phone line?
Yes. Filter has 2 outputs, one RJ-11 to router and one BT phone socket. The master socket will be easy to find as it will be one that looks like it has a split in the middle as it is designed to come apart for you to get to the test socket if you have a fault on the line.
Easy then. Nice one. Now I just have to wait until this working two weeks in advance crap is done then I can stop using a crappy and expensive mobile dongle.
I've had a 2 week holiday where I've just been doing work around the house (aside from 15 hours or so playing Ni No Kuni). I've been robbed I tell you.
Over here we do things differently. Schools close for around 13 weeks per year but it is split up. There are 3 terms and this is split into 2 half terms each. Summer Holiday around 6 weeks Autumn Half term 1 week Christmas Holiday 2 weeks Winter/spring half term 1 week Easter Holiday 2 weeks Summer half term 1 week. I think in the USA you pretty much just get the summer off.
Yeah. It's been a while but I believe it broke down something like this: 12 weeks summer 1 week christmas/new years 1 week total misc. holidays / 3 day weekends 1 week expected snow/weather closings Not really sure which is better... I think the moderate pacing you have might actually be better. But 3 months off was always glorious.
12 weeks summer? Damn, I would have preferred that when I was a kid. Then again, 1 week off for Christmas is a bit lame.
