I'm in England at the moment and it's the same, last time I was here it seemed pretty good price wise for food and drinks etc but now it's absolutely ridiculous the price of everything. Even public transport costs are an absolute rort.
And we lived in cardboard box in t’middle of a gravel track!
No the day should be written and said as 22/11/24 or 22 November 2024, not 11/22/24 or November 22 2024
I agree… just pointing out that there’s a logic to it. In fact these days it’s just about the only logical thing in America.
The original Gregorian calendar was based on the date range 1/1/0100 to 12/31/9999 or MM/DD/YYYY.
Good old Pope Greg. What a thought leader he was.The original Gregorian calendar was based on the date range 1/1/0100 to 12/31/9999 or MM/DD/YYYY.
Britain followed this till the mid 18th century (1752). USA discovered in 1492 and took it's date from Britain.
Australia discovered in 1770 and also followed Britains format but it had changed 18 years prior.
So both America and Australia are just copied cats and both are probably correct.
A petty explanation for a petty, pet hate

FMD! I can't believe anyone replied to that shyte LOL LOL
Me too
No idea. Had one go at it months ago and hate it. IN that time I have run about 20 recruitments and the new "thing" is for applicants to use some sort of AI to "write" their selection criteria and it shits me no end. They don't get interviewed.
NoSo, can we please record AI as a petty thing I hate
That’s random. How old?
