  1. I’m crying out for some sun to ripen up my tomatoes at the allotment ! Global warming seems to have bypassed my little bit of this green and pleasant land ! All the rain we’ve had , even the ducks look unhappy ! LOL ! Cheers.
  2. Cloud seeding has been used for years in arid areas. It’s used a lot in the US, Europe, the Middle East, Russia, China, Australia. Its nothing new. It’s used to encourage rainfall . I read the Tenessee Bill and they deliberately avoided the use of the word “Chemtrail” because of its association with conspiracy theories. They were more interested in banning Solar Geoengineering, which aims to block the sun’s harmful rays from entering our atmosphere. Cheers.
  3. Ahh ! Godwins Law ! LOL ! I didn’t spot it mate ! Cheers.
  4. Why “sorry charts” ? I’m quite willing to believe the channel 4 “expose” on Farage and Reform was an establishment stitch up, all the evidence points in that direction. Of course there are conspiracies, but I believe in the formal description of the word “ conspiracy “, which is “ when two or more people conspire to break the law”. I don’t believe EVERYTHING is a conspiracy. I’ll use good old Occams Razor theory, that the simplest explanation is, usually, the best, such as “ when you hear hoof beats, assume horses…not zebras” ! Cheers.
  5. The rain hasn’t let up all day from Northumberland to Yorkshire and I concur completely with your assessment of the game ! Cheers.
  6. They are getting beat 2-1 at the moment! Shit, I’ve done it again, haven’t I ? Cheers.
  7. I’m sorry if some of the posts , ( some of which are undoubtedly mine) , have upset you; but moaning about posts being hijacked or going off topic is guaranteed to do one thing; make them meander even more ! Its not meant to upset anyone, if we didn’t inject a bit of humour, sarcasm , whatever, then the site would truly die. I try to post as much about dogs as I post in the general section, but you can only talk so much about rabbits and rats , and not other quarry, without attracting the ire of the moderators. Im sorry if you feel your thread has been ruined. Cheers.
  8. Don’t get him started ! NOBODY has walked on the moon ! LOL ! Cheers.
  9. To quote that old THL saying; “ if only you were closer”, you’d get your eggs for free, got to take care of my protege “LOL” Just back from feeding the poultry and collecting the eggs. Hens, ducks and quail . Cheers.
  10. Been for my hearing test, very good for a man of my age, they said. Eye test on Sunday, last week had my yearly meeting with my doctor, all fine and been to the dentist to sort out a chipped tooth. Like a vintage car, us old ‘uns , need regular maintenance ! Lashing down here aswell, just having lunch then on with the Barbour and waterproofs and out with the dog to the allotments to see to the poultry. My missus is down your way for a while, she won’t be happy if it’s pissing down ! Cheers.
  11. Yeah, Chipper Smith . First person I knew who had working teckels. Cheers.
  12. Doing a lot of posting this morning mate! Bored ? Is the rain keeping you indoors? Cheers.
  13. I saw it done, a few times ! Cheers.
  14. Not sure if this is relevant for the thread, but the non-ped whippets often threw a “bully” type in a litter, possibly a throwback to when terrier was added to whippets to give them a bit more “fire”. I had two, one looked exactly like you’d imagine a bull/whippet to look like. It was well bred, 3/4 whippet 1/4 greyhound. It was too slow for racing so I give it to a lad and it had a good career at ferreting. The rest of the litter made the grade and looked like whippets, The other one I had was bred from the very best scratch dogs and won scratch races but looked like a bull/greyhound.
  15. The missus is off on her travels again so I’m a bit bored! LOL ! Cheers.
  16. I’ve never seen the point of a bull/whippet; slower than a whippet and not as game as a bull ! There; back on track, with a contentious comment ! LOL ! Cheers
  17. Yes, a sad state of affairs ; 14 years of a crew without a compass; now a new crew about to scuttle the ship ! Cheers.
  18. I fear the site is drifting along like a rudderless ship ! An absent owner and non-existent moderation. Cheers.
  19. I think the meandering nature of threads on THL is what keeps them interesting and relevant. Cheers.
  20. Just had a look and as of 2024 the US has twice as much gold reserves than China and Russia combined ! Gold Reserves by Country 2024 WORLDPOPULATIONREVIEW.COM Cheers.
  21. If China is going to bring down the West by returning to the gold standard, and not by obliterating us with nuclear missiles, I could accept that ! Cheers.
  22. When the crash comes, if it does, and if I’m still around, I’ve got my allotments, poultry, dogs and fishing gear, I’ll probably not starve, I live a pretty frugal life anyway! LOL ! Cheers.
  23. Glad I’ve got my own little gold and silver reserves then ! LOL ! cheers.
