Frobester Nov 2013 3:45pm, 20 Nov 2013 24,234 posts	Quote Pin Frobester My gears are being ground at the moment by those donkeys in SW1 debating the plans to thunder on with regular army redundancies, whilst completely ignoring a failure to recruit significant numbers of TA to "make up the shortfall". An MP's called a debate and vote, but all the opponents are wilfully avoiding the facts and wanting to push on, leaving a gap between the regulars and TA. Whatever the rights and wrongs of the policy, if you haven't got enough reserves, why carry on letting regulars go?

Frobester Nov 2013 8:54am, 21 Nov 2013 24,240 posts	Quote Pin Frobester People who believe communal work kitchens, and communal work milk, is theirs alone for a) the preparation of various pretentious breakfast recipes, and b) for their unlimited drinking as an accompaniment to said pretentious breakfast recipes. 1) it takes up time, in a cramped kitchen, with about 50 people wanting to use the facilities just to make a cup of tea or coffee 2) it's selfish, since it means someone has to go and get more milk. Invariably not the person who used half a pint to themselves.
