    No, I’m actually an uninterested bystander as I doubt any of the summer rhetoric will transpire into winter reality Cheers.

    To anyone thinking of voting “Green” next week; Zac Polanski, the Leader of the Green Party has re-tweeted a tweet saying that the police who took down the Somali maniac who had just stabbed two innocent members of the public , and was coming at the police with a knife in his hand, acted “with undue force “ !!!! My personal opinion is that the police should have kept kicking him until he was in a vegative state and the knife dropped from his hand and he was no longer a threat , and they should be commended for their bravery . Cheers.

    I wish Google had been available when I was still in formal education , I’d have been a Professor by now We weren’t allowed anything in the exam room with us, all formulae, equations snd mathematics had to be shown in the papers margins. Later on , we were allowed a slide rule, I doubt many today could use one, or a mechanical , not a digital , micrometer ! Yes; Google truly is “ our friend “ Cheers.

    Lateness

    chartpolski replied to WILF's topic in General Talk

    I’m definitely a compulsive obsessive when it comes to being on time for meetings, appointments, etc ! I think it is just common courtesy and a sure sign that you are reliable. Just yesterday my missus had an appointment I was taking her to, the appointment was at 9:30 and at 9:10 I said “ come on , let’s go “. She said “ there’s plenty time”, so I said ok, get a taxi or the bus, because I’m not going to be a party to you being late. She had a “ face on” but got in the car. We got there at 9:25, and she was called at 9:30 ! I didn’t say anything ,but the smug look on my

    It’s part of our ongoing education process; I write something and he goes on Google to see what it means , it’s something I’m going to talk to the Education Secretary about to have it added to the curriculum. Cheers.

    You’re a sly one , Gunty You bring me into a thread that has stalled, knowing that I would give a reply guaranteed to get the saluki blind telling us their dogs were as good as any purpose bred lamper Kudos. Mate; kudos Cheers.

    I had a short list of who would be the first to bite But to be honest, you weren’t on it Max entered a retired coursing bred bitch in one of the lamping competitions, and I was told by people who saw it run the lamp that it came back with its rabbits as quick as it went out ! Must have been an exception Cheers.

    I think Salukis and saluki types are just “point & slip” dogs; and if you can get one to come back to you, it’s a keeper . Cheers.

    Bill Ramell, also known as Bill “ when I was a minister” Ramell Cheers.

    Yeah I watched Emma Lewis, she’s a local MP, a very impassioned speech. I doubt Starmer would dare to sack her, she’s old school Labour and would probably win her seat as an independent. Gardiner should have been charged with treason when he accepted £500,000 from a Chinese spy and gave her son a job in his parliamentary office. MI5 had her kicked out of the country. He’s not known as “Beijing Barry “ for nothing Cheers.

    Anyone else having problems accessing the site ? A little while ago, I couldn’t get on , kept getting a message “server not responding” so I gave up and didn’t try again for a week or so. Now it’s hit and miss, sometimes get the same message or get on but it’s incredibly slow. Has IanB gave up on the site, has he stopped getting maintenance done ? Where are the moderators ? I think the site hasn’t long to go, over 70,000 members but probably not even 20 posting with any regularity. Virtually no hunting posts. Is it because social media has overtaken forums li

    55 Labour MP’s didn’t turn up to vote. They are the cowards. They didn’t have the integrity to turn up and vote against Starmer or even turn up and abstain in the vote. I think Farage SHOULD have been there, but I can see his reasoning to keep a pre arranged canvassing day in Norfolk that was organised well before the vote, but was it impossible to do both ? Anyhow, the leftist Starmer supporters will make a big thing of it and turn a blind eye to the 15 Labour MP’s who voted against Starmer and the 55 who stayed away. Lowe will, quite rightly , in my mind, try to make pol

    At the moment I’m finding watching politics more exciting than watching Newcastle, but “non desistas, non exieris “ as they say Cheers.

    Starmer shows huge political naivety with almost every decision. Kemi, and I’m certainly NOT a supporter, played a blinder by asking for a debate and a vote on whether Starmer should be referred to the Privileges Committee that she knew had no chance of passing but would put Labour and the Speaker in a no-win situation. Speaker Hoyle couldn’t refuse the request as it would look like he wasn’t impartial and supported Starmer and Labour. Labour MP’s had the choice to vote with their conscience or toe the Labour line. Starmer had three choices; Refer himself to the Privil

    It’s quite telling that a lot of the Labour MP’s who voted against Starmer or refused to vote were North East MP’s. Normally a staunch Labour area. Maybe a clue as to how next weeks local, Welsh and Scottish elections are going to go ? Cheers.

    Did he not vote ? It was pointless,Starmer put a three line whip on his MP’s and they have a massive majority.The motion was never going to pass. Badenoch proposed it knowing full well it would fail but it would make Starmer look like both a coward and a bully. I think Starmer has played this terribly, he should have referred himself to the Standards committee, now all his opponents can call him a coward. Cheers.

    The Speaker of the House yesterday granted a free vote in Parliament to have Starmer appear before the Privileges Committee to answer questions on the Mandelson Affair, but But Starmer has ordered a “three line whip” on Labour MP’s , meaning any Labour MP voting FOR the inquiry will be thrown out of the Labour Party . So much for a “FREE” vote …… Cheers.

    Might get some summer hunting or maybe some fishing Cheers.

    Isn’t there a super injunction, (D Notice), on this preventing reporting ? Cheers.

    Oh dear …… could you not have got it fixed ? Or maybe have the leg removed ? Or worst case scenario, if it was needed, you could have got one of those little doggy wheel chair affairs that the poor dog could have dragged around ! O callous youth Cheers.

    I got the ferry over from Holyhead last time to Dublin, but Albert Titterington who runs the All Ireland Gamefairs paid the fair and paid for my accommodation in Ballycommon as I was judging the whippets at Birr Castle. I took two dogs over that time and managed a couple of spins pn hares and a days fishing on the Grand Canal. I look forward to seeing the lads, Rab had a fortuitous meet up with our mutual pal Bobby in Benidorm a week or so ago , they both just happened to be there, it wasn’t planned or I may have went Cheers.

    Stranraer not far from me but Newcastle Airport is a lot closer and cheaper than the ferry and I may even manage to blag a free ticket Cheers.

    My pal Cookie is planning to come over to to see Rab and the Sniper, we were going to come over together but he wants to take his dog and get the ferry, I wasn’t going to take a dog and it’s far easier for me to fly, but we will work something out Cheers.

    And I’d gladly give an opinion, but I’ll say it’s only MY opinion , it doesn’t mean it’s correct. As for advice, that’s a different mattet. If I can give good advice on something I’m knowledgeable on, I will give it, it’s up to the asker if they will accept it. In this case, your knowledge of hounds and foxes far, far exceeds mine, I don’t need your word for it, I checked with reliable sources Cheers.

    Confucius said, ( or maybe it was me ); ”When you pretend to be an expert on something you know nothing about…..you’re soon found to be a fool .” Cheers.
