@Dovefromabove these things take months of planning. It's certainly not just a case of looking on Google Maps and thinking "That looks like the best route". There have been a number of programmes about moving abnormal loads. You look at the route and think they can't get through, but they do.
Oh I know that .., my tongue was in my cheek when I said that .., but I am puzzled as to the reason they’re going via the congested centre of the old part of Ipswich rather than the straightforward route taken by all other very large loads from Ipswich Docks straight onto the 6 lane A14 and then to interchange with the A140 … very puzzling.
I'm a cynical person as you may have noticed but if you googled 'King Charles Capercaillie' before today you would have been shown a lot of results about how the King's Scottish estates still prioritise sporting interests over the survival of the species. Now however you get a lot of results about the new coins with the bird on them instead https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/oct/12/royal-mint-unveils-new-coin-design-inspired-by-king-charles
I know it's an age/health thing, but embarrassingly, I forgot my credit card PIN. Trying to get through to the right person who can send me a replacement, has been a hassle. I know that they have to check my details for security, but all I wanted was for them to send a new PIN, or reminder of the old PIN, to the account holder, at his home address. What could be so difficult?!
Ironically, they said I wouldn't be able to use my card in the meantime. Well, I can't anyway!!
Of course, it would have been easier to drop into my local branch of xxxxxxx bank. But I can't. They've closed the branch. Sigh!!
When you get your replacement PIN @rowlandscastle444, visit your nearest ATM and change it to something memorable. As a reminder, I incorporate mine in a false telephone number (eg the last four digits, reversed if you like a challenge!) which I keep in a contact list of real contacts!
Oh dear, looks like my clever scheme isn’t quite as original as I thought! Might need to at least add a few more contacts to my address list, it’s quite short so wouldn’t take very long for a thief to check them all out! Maybe I should change my PIN to the last four digits of a real contact number!
For a card that I very rarely use and so would struggle to remember the PIN, I have it incorporated into a slip of paper kept in my wallet which purports to show an account balance written on it: £1,324.17 (PIN 7142).
