I think the general philosophy of Buddhism is that if one really has "done their best " then there is no need to come back at all.

As far as I an aware, in the UK at least nobody can lose their licence "on the spot" that option along with any other punishment would be decided by the courts , except in the case of a fixed penalty, but that would not include disqualification

The Pizza company is the worst, I should really say "was" the worst as its years since I have been in either. No doubt somebody will come along and correct me shortly, Its been one of those days

I cannot understand why any retail outlet would go cashless. Some might say it would make sense for the likes of high end jewellers or luxury car dealerships however I'm sure they too have some customers who prefer to or can only pay in cash.

I thought there may have been some American influence to be honest but I don't consider American English to be "real" English more a variation or even a dialect . but that's just my opinion I have never heard either Arith or Ariths used in the UK the word "arithmetic" even was not widely used where I went to school its use was pretty much restricted to its rather bizarre presence in the phrase "the three "r"s as in" reading writing and arithmetic" or in the titles of textbooks We just considered arithmetic to mean "standard" mathematics and referred to it as maths and only used other descriptives for algebra, trigonometry, geometry , calculus and the like I do however accept that languages are continually evolving, I just can't keep up anymore lol

It would appear I have been misinformed, although unsurprisingly ,and to be honest, I was never that interested that I bothered "fact checking" I'll take your word for it as I still feel the same way. I doubt the emoji was awarded by a representative of either of the two corporate entities you referred to though, Just somebody like yourself who is better informed, but, unlike yourself, just too lazy to offer a polite explanation.

Personally i would go with "speciality bread" or "loaves" The bakery is known for its specialty bread ( or loaves) although as I mentioned earlier as the different types of bread have specific names the use of the word "loaf / loaves would not normally be used when quantifying IE One would order 3 baguettes not 3 loaves of baguette It would never be "Loaves of breads" it would one loaf of bread or three loaves of bread I looked on google as I was genuinely surprised, I have never heard the word "breads" used before there are several conflicting links as to whether it is a real word or not, but I can't argue with the link you found either so I guess I'll stand corrected. maybe its a recent linguistic development, similar to how I've noticed people nowadays do the "Math" as opposed to the "maths" Breads still sounds weird to me though, and in a grating sort of way,

Hp is very similar. But much better

you need professional help

not wishing to be pedantic,but I don't think breads is a real word it is what's known as an "uncountable noun" and needs a "classifier" when referring to a specific quantity As an aside this applies to all nouns in Thai language and "loaves " (of bread) is used in many Thai language books as an easily understood example of the relatively rare use of classifiers in English I have never heard anybody order " 3 breads" ever, it just sounds weird whereas 3 loaves of bread is perfectly normal. Loaves of bread can be all sorts of shapes and either sliced or unsliced, although the classifier would not normally be used if another descriptive is available ie "baguette" 3 baguettes would be fine but not 3 breads You are not obliged to agree with me but https://preply.com/en/question/bread-countable-or-uncountable-45550 and there are many others

Brilliant response

its not "breads" its "loaves" come on fred there are standards to be maintained

Nothing compares to the green bread that they use for the ready made 7/11 sarnies

Yeah i'd go along with that , now and again is ok I always preferred "burger king" but I can't stand their offerings anymore

There used to be "pizza hut" which sold relatively decent pizzas, but it changed to The Pizza Co. and was never the same afterwards seems to have confused somebody can't think why

I quite like starbucks coffee and occaisionally buy it from the supermarket when back in the UK its no more expensive than any other coffee. But I flatly refuse to spend any money in their disgustingly over priced coffee shops. Amazon coffee is perfectly drinkable at a fraction of the cost,

The smell puts me off

call me a traditionalist, but approved optional are pretty much limited to fried egg, sausage, or black pudding, And HP sauce of course

And the more you eat the better you feel. Bacon is truly a gift from the gods

Agreed, And It always amazes me how they will walk past some delicious Thai style barbequed chicken and go and stuff themselves with KFC rubbish guess its the power of advertising

BBQ sauce should not be allowed anywhere near Bacon it should be a criminal offence to even think about such blasphemy. Only HP sauce is acceptable

No benefits at all at Makro for having a card. As far as I can see the only difference is the receipt that they give you, as another member has already mentioned. I avoid all those supermarket loyalty schemes, the mrs used to collect points from big C and use them for" free gifts" normally useless rubbish that went straight in the bin Same at 7/11 I just leave the stamps on the counter

they obviously couldn't care less, why would they?

it might just be the name of the manager of the checkout girl herself, either way its only to log that the sale was to a non member

I wish they would stop all this, do they honestly believe people will change the way they vote because of these reports ? There is only one poll which matters, lets just wait and see .
