The government will f**k this up as all governments do. They will bring in draconian laws about owning and carrying knives, maybe even licensing certain knives. The people who will suffer will be the bloke walking his dog and having a Swiss Army knife in his pocket or a bloke like me going to his allotment with an opinel pruning knife. Every prosecution for carrying a knife will be hailed as “winning the war on knife crime” but the wrong people will be targeted. The wrong’uns will still carry on no matter, but the everyday bloke going about his business will suffer. Ther

A Freudian Slip as his mind is constantly on the “gravy train” perhaps ? Cheers.

And Starmer has instantly refused to accept the non-binding vote and will go ahead with removing the winter fuel allowance. All while the news is breaking that he accepted ANOTHER £20,000 in accommodation gifted in an £18 million pent house in London. Hi excuse this time ? His son needed somewhere to study for his GCSE’s……. The man has no shame. Cheers.

The US is at DefCon 3. It isn’t now and never has been at DefCon 1, even during the Cuban missile crisis. That post is just a dictionary description of DefCon 1 Cheers.

Exactly ! Put the words “Saudi “ and “ throat cut” in the headline and you are guaranteed to get views, “ click bait” as it’s known, but there was nothing threatening or sinister in the gesture, he was simply directing the camera man away from the crowd back to the ring, which the article confirms. But read the headline, put 2 and 2 together to get 5, and “hey presto “, jobs a good’un ! LOL ! Cheers.

Calm down Bangers mate ! He didn’t make the “throat cutting gesture” to the boxer if you read the report, he made it to the camera man as an instruction to pan away from him. Cheers.

Remember way back when they could do a six months course for a trade ? They were known as “diluties” Cheers.

It’s a shame you don’t have a mate who’s a nuclear physicist to hang around with ; you’d have that pesky nuclear fusion sorted in a few weeks ! LOL ! Cheers.

I allways cut the cigar plug off. If you don’t cut it off, then tape it securely together so there’s no movement between the “male “ and “female “ components . Cheers.

Whatever your view, the Yehudi have played a blinder, ( pardon the pun) , everyone in the Middle East is now looking at their tv remote and thinking “ what channel do I click on and this thing blows my hand off ? “ Im not being facetious here, my 9 year old grandson is at school out there and I worry about his safety. People will be looking at everyday objects and wondering ! Cheers.

It’s interesting that you say “ more permissive days”. Alf often mentioned Mary Whitehouse and things like nudity and sex were far more restricted in those days, but anti semitism, racism, homophobia were acceptable. Today it’s reversed. Nudity and sex is acceptable on TV , but if you are accused of being a transphobe, homophobe or racist you will be cancelled in a heartbeat ! Sargent Major “Shut Up “ calling the concert party “ poofs” would never work again ! Cheers.

I apologise for what may have appeared as a sarcastic comment, it wasn’t meant that way, and I agree it was meant as a satire. I for one see it in a completely different light now as a “ grown up” than I did back then as a callow youth . Cheers.

Jim Davidson has a show on YouTube. , it’s very good. Cheers.

You mean he was an actor ??? Quell surprise! LOL ! Cheers.

I’m watching a lot of the old repeats but I think Alf Garnett in both versions of the show is a bit dated now, still funny but not as much as it was. I like It Ain’t Half Hot Mum, still as hilarious as ever. Rising Damp and Porridge are still great , and of course Only Fools And Horses are timeless classics. Rab C Nesbitt is just insane in a funny way ! Cheers.

My brother and I were ferreting a bit of permission he had, and a sandal and sock wearing shithouse came by and started berating us while his border collie was chasing the cows around the field. My brother gave him the stare I knew would ,and had in the past landed us in a bit of “soapy” and told the bloke “ get that dog under control and f**k off before I bury you both in this hole I’m digging “ ! The bloke beat a hasty retreat while shouting he was going to ‘phone the police. This was before mobile ‘phones so I knew I had a while to calm my brother down , get our gear together a

You’ve got a fairly wide choice mate ! You shouldn’t lose any sleep over it ! LOL ! Cheers.

That immediately brought to mind an episode I’ve mentioned on here before; My brother was walking his terrier and lurcher when the terrier squatted for a shit. A woman driving past stopped and jumped out of her car and started shouting at my brother “ I hope you are going to pick that up !” My brother stared at her with those dead eyes you associate with a mass murderer, picked up the dog shit with his bare hand and smeared it over her windscreen ! The woman went into hysterics and my brother walked away. He wouldn’t wipe his hand on the grass until she was out of sight

Family should NEVER try to teach each other to drive ! I tried once or twice with my wife but was glad to pay for lessons in the end ! Cheets.

Two old pals of mine, Captain Ron Edwards and “little” Jeff Dickinson, built a boat on the Red Sea in Saudi and sailed it to the Philippines and bought one of those small islands with the intention of starting a Dive School. They soon found it that it wasn’t as easy as they thought, having to boat in water, food, fuel, supples, building materials etc. and it fell through. Jeff headed off to the Florida Keys and joined a gold diving salvage team and was in the film “ The Gold of the Ochatya”. I got a call from his ex wife a couple of years ago to inform me he had hung himself from the m

I got a box for my mothers uncle who was a retired marine engineer. His name on the box and each individual cigar. Im sure I saw his eyes moisten as he looked at them and I’ll bet he was thinking of his time steaming around the South China and Andaman Seas….. Cheers.
-
Not quite; the houseboy used to bring me a box back every time he returned from leave, and I don’t even smoke, but nice to have for guests ! Cheers.
-
Mackem, I’m sure you’ll recognise these; Monogrammed cigars from the Philippines. Cheers.

I like to consider myself a “sophist”, in the original Greek meaning of the word, certainly not in the modern interpretation, although I’m sure there are a few modern sophists on here ! LOL ! Cheers.
