Get yourself a man cave , mate ! LOL ! Cheers.

Yes, of course I’m well aware of the “establishment “ but you still haven’t explained why Farage is a “wrong ‘un”. Wheres your proof of the nonce accusation? That’s an easy but terrible accusation to throw about without proof. Cheers.

I agree it’s us and them, but that doesn’t explain how Farage has been exposed as a wrong ‘un ! He's suspended the whip from one of his MP’s while allegations of wrong doing is investigated, which is right and proper. The Lib/Lab/Con uniparty has sold us down the river. Is Reform the answer ? I don’t know, but I’m willing to give them a chance, I don’t want more of Labour or the Tory liars. Cheers.

How is he a wrong ‘un mate ? Cheers.

I’ve been looking for a decent hacking jacket/sports coat, perhaps you could recommend your tailor, Jermyn Street , I assume? Cheets.

I may be completely wrong but my initial reaction is that Lowe had been used , probably without his knowledge, as a “stalking horse” or as a “useful idiot”. I think he had his ego stroked by Musks support when Musk said Farage should step down, and Lowe take his place as leader of Reform. Lowe cast the die and crossed the metaphorical Rubicon by challenging Farage, but, unlike Caesar, didn’t have the Legions at his back. Was Andrew Pierce, an arch Thatcherite and True Blue Tory , who did the interview and wrote the two page spread in the Mail, a Tory newspaper, complicit in settin

A “stitch up “ ? A bit premature that Wilf; I watched Lowe making his move to take over from Farage last week and commented that it wouldn’t bode well for him. Let’s be honest , Farage IS Reform, and Reform IS Farage. Lowe is a very successful business man who had come into politics late in life and is a rank amateur compared to Farage in the Byzantine and Machiavellian world of Westminster. When Lowe sanctioned the two page spread in the Mail saying Farage was a messiah and not a Prime Minister in waiting, he must have known it was win or bust, and he was never going to wi

Was there any Brits who hid in their lofts to avoid conscription during the two world wars ………? How many Americans ran off to Canada to avoid ‘Nam …….? Cheers.

“Two to three hours to catch a rabbit “; Yep, sounds about right! Should do ok on the fens ! LOL ! Cheers.

I asked Hamed Guhnaim if he preferred feathered or smooth, he said coat and colour made absolutely no difference to performance; I personally prefer the feathered black & tans, but my preference is based on nothing more than aesthetics; Cheers.

My missus is going shortly, just got her new evisa, multiple exit re-entry, done in minutes. No visa necessary for the UAE, so I’m surprised that anyone really into Salukis doesn’t have a trip out there and see them first hand. Cheers.

We used to fly in crate loads of Thompsons from Africa for the Saudis to run with their Salukis. But it’s not all droppers, the Bedouin are allowed to hunt for meat and the rich have “ hunting camps”; a huge convoy of water trucks, catering trucks, trucks carrying the tents , carpets , etc and a fleet of Land Cruisers. They go on hunting trips for days. I know Saudi and Emirates who fly their dogs and falcons to Pakistan and North Africa to hunt gazelle and bustard. I used to be in the desert every week end with my dogs, but to be honest, if you saw a hare, let alone got a r

In my younger days I was a regular at “Rotten Rodney’s “ snooker hall at South Shield’s, sadly long gone. I regularly had 50+ breaks, due more to my opponent’s incompetence than my skill, but now I’m just an armchair fan. To misquote the Great Groucho ; “I have my political views, but I also have others” ! LOL ! Dogma and intransigence has no room in my thinking. Happy Lent, Ramadan and whatever other archaic and irrelevant religious nonsense is going on just now. Cheers.

Was hit by a wave of nostalgia scrolling through the pages of the auction, as I’m just about old enough to remember shops like the Ironmongers, the Drapers, the Hardware store , etc. If I won tonight’s Euro Lottery, I’d be bidding on a lot of that stuff and filling rooms in my mansion with it. Sadly I’ll just have to stick with my man cave to remind of what seems like a simpler and better past…… Cheers.

A DEERHOUND x ?!?!?! In a coursing bred ? Sacrilege , I say , SACRILEGE ! You’ll be giving my pal mC nightmares ! LOL ! Cheers.
