10 here, if you include the Waitrose Cookery School, but I'm in the middle of London. It might take me a long time to get to branches that are only a few miles away. More importantly how do you get the round-robin distance?No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -
Waitrose opens here at the end of the month. I am looking forward to the bargains at the end of the day
In my experience they do the best reductions of all the supermarkets. And have the nicest food
I was in the co-op in Cromer at the end of the day. They go in for enormous reductions a few minutes before items closing. I saw something nice for next to nothing but was body-checked out of the way by a young mother who grabbed the lot! It takes a fair bit to body-check me, so they obviously breed them tough in Norfolk.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -

That's true, but another question is whether any infinite series of digits will also appear at some point in pi? Worrying about that sort of question is how mathematicians come up with different sorts of infinity. Lydia will be along in a minute to explain it.No reliance should be placed on the above!

Leaflets that lure you in ..... seen a great price for a day trip over the water, just £15 return. Conditions: must sail before 6.30am - upon looking at the timetable there are 2 choices, one sailing at 4am and one at 5am. Now, I don't mind getting up early for a bargain, the trouble is accessing that bargain.
Options: Investigated
Bus - not running until 6-7am
Train - not running until 6:48am
Taxi - online quote shows £14
Car/parking: £7
Walking - free, it's only 6 miles ... but it'd involve walking from 2-4am in the pitch dark across two towns I don't know and across an open/water/harbour area I don't know too.... so potentially high risk/high potential for disaster.
So, yet again, car ownership trumps public transport.0 -
Ask their lorry driver!10 here, if you include the Waitrose Cookery School, but I'm in the middle of London. It might take me a long time to get to branches that are only a few miles away. More importantly how do you get the round-robin distance?
My local Waitrose is a small store, as is my Sainsburys and Tesco, but about a mile away is a bigger Asda, Morrisons, Tesco and Sainsbury.
There's another five bigger Waitroses within about 5 miles. We haven't much of a high street but within a few miles of some really good shopping centres.There is no honour to be had in not knowing a thing that can be known - Danny Baker0 -
That's quite likely but we only know the first "bit" of pi.
The site only checks the known region of it. A four-digit number sequence has every chance of turning up in that region, a five-digit one less so and six-digit ones more rarely. I don't know how many digits a sequence would have to have to not be found.
I tried my 8 digit birthday and it was not found. That site uses the first 1.25m digits. I feel sure that loads more digits are known. There's no length of a sequence that automatically cannot be found in those 1.25m. For example, the sequence 926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751 is contained in it, even though it's 95 digits long.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -
Waitrose Cookery School ... way to go .... "purchase chilled meal for one, open microwave door, remove inner carton from package, !!!!! plastic covering, place in microwave and heat for the number of minutes the packet says". That's a short class.10 here, if you include the Waitrose Cookery School, but I'm in the middle of London. It might take me a long time to get to branches that are only a few miles away.
Easiest way is to guesstimate.... it's unlikely a stalker exists that knows your postcode and would bother to check and call you out over 2-3 miles.More importantly how do you get the round-robin distance?0
