    It’s what long range ballistic missiles do mate, Cheers.

    What about Voyager ? There reams of data it’s sent back, or the Hubble telescope ? Im not having a pop mate, I’m just intrigued as to why you doubt the evidence Cheers.

    Francie, do you honestly believe nothing can leave our atmosphere? What about ballistic missiles that leave our atmosphere then re-enter ? Cheers.

    Possibly the worst England performance I’ve seen. Not a single shot on target in the first half. Foden as a “false number 9”, whatever that may be ? Had the least touches of any England player. The only actual attacking intent coming from Mguire and Burn, two aging centre backs, when they came on for the last few minutes. Cheers.

    Is its name “Krypto” ? Cheers

    Just google “ benefits of space exploration “. The benefits are too many to post on here but include computers, electronics, miniaturisation of components, c.t. Scanners, understanding and using radiation, experimentation, innovation, etc. Cheers.

    So you’re the fourth owner ? Cheers.

    How many owners has the bitch had ? Three ? Cheers.

    Most deer/grey first crosses I’ve seen were slow to mature, so this dog couldn’t have done much at two year old, maybe not even one season ? And studded out at under two years old ? £1200 to transport from Wales to Scotland ? He’s having a laugh we’ve had deerhounds, greyhounds and crosses sent back and forth Ireland / England for £120-£150 ! Could be genuine, I don’t know, but it doesn’t sound kosher to me Still “you pays your money, you takes your chance” as they say. Cheers.

    PDSA here will only register you if you are in receipt of council tax reduction and you must produce a letter from the council as proof. They will do standard things like micro chipping, fleaing and worming for a charge, which is normally cheaper than the vets. Cheers.

    While I don’t disagree, I ask how much better they could have been if they COULD read and write ? Cheers.

    About 15 years ago, mate. Some of the people who were illiterate had never had a job in their life, constructing a resume’ for them was difficult as they didn’t even have a school leaving certificate let alone any qualifications and no work history, but they were threatened with benefit sanctions if they didn’t have an email account and resume lodged with the DWP. Cheers.
  15. chartpolski
    Yes, but that’s because of where I live, I don’t think illiteracy is a problem peculiar to the north east, I’d guess it’s country wide Cheers.

    I was probably a bit naive when I asked them why the pipeline would need trace heating in Saudi Arabia. They said the crude needed to be at a fairly high temperature to flow. Cheers.

    I knew the two lads that had the company that installed and maintained the trace heating on the Saudi pipeline. They did a cable jointing job for me. That would be about 45 years ago. Had them at my house in Jeddah a few times. They offered me a franchise for domestic trace heating in the UK but I didn’t take them up on it. Cheers.

    I think I’ve told you this before; some years back, I did three months pro bono work for the DWP. It was when they were closing the dole offices and going on line so I was helping claimants to set up an email account and construct a resume’. I was appalled at the number of people in their 40’s and 50’s who couldn’t read or write and had opted out of school at 12 or 13 ! Surely the education system should have picked this up, that they were illiterate before that age ? How they got through life is beyond me . Cheers.

    I’m a bit of a stoic and a fatalist mate, so life has to go on. We are lucky to have a grandson who appears to be turning out to be somewhat of a child prodigy and is unashamedly spoilt rotten by us and his Saudi family, but he is pretty grounded. Ive no experience of the modern state school system , both my children were privately educated as is our grandson , so I can’t really give any advice on the subject Cheers.

    Ah, OK, these threads do tend to meander So I’ll just repeat what I said earlier. I don’t think I have the academic ability or patience for home schooling.. Cheers.

    I thought that was what the discussion was about ? Cheers.

    I have absolutely no experience or knowledge of autism, so best to adopt the maxim of “say nothing and let people assume I’m stupid, rather than speak and confirm it”. I lost both my children to cancer, so I know the heartache children can bring. I wish Bendigo all the best with his son, that’s about all the input I can give Cheers.

    How dare you question his credentials? He is a sage, a seer, a savant ! He sits atop his very own mount Olympus and hands down wisdom like a modern Buddha or Zeus He doesn’t need to explain; he simply says, and it is ! So sit back and look on in wonder at this latter day prophet Cheers.

    Just my view, but a pipe line from the gulf through Isreal to the Mediterranean and Europe makes perfect sense ! Quicker , easier and cheaper than the alternatives. Currently, oil from the gulf goes across Saudi to the Red Sea then onto ships and either north through the Suez Canal, with the SCA charging huge transit fees, or south through the Bab Al Mendab, a dangerous “pinch point”, round the Horn of Africa,, where ships are prey to Somali pirates and incur huge insurance premiums, then round the Cape meaning travelling far further and costing more. We are seeng the problem wi
