The rain hasn’t let up all day from Northumberland to Yorkshire and I concur completely with your assessment of the game ! Cheers.

They are getting beat 2-1 at the moment! Shit, I’ve done it again, haven’t I ? Cheers.

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.

A mere sprint ! Cheers.

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.

I am, just lucky I guess Cheers.

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.

Yeah, Chipper Smith . First person I knew who had working teckels. Cheers.

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.

The missus is off on her travels again so I’m a bit bored! LOL ! Cheers.
-
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

Yes, a sad state of affairs ; 14 years of a crew without a compass; now a new crew about to scuttle the ship ! Cheers.

I fear the site is drifting along like a rudderless ship ! An absent owner and non-existent moderation. Cheers.

I think the meandering nature of threads on THL is what keeps them interesting and relevant. Cheers.

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.
-
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.

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.
-
Glad I’ve got my own little gold and silver reserves then ! LOL ! cheers.

Lammy called Trump ”a Nazi sympathising sociopath” Trump has already said if he becomes President, he will only deal with Starmer through Farage. Could be some fun ahead ! Cheers.

BRICS is just a trade agreement, much like The EU, NAFTA, AUKUS, CPTPP. If they want to have the Chinese Yuan as their currency, so what ? The EU is one of the biggest trading blocks in the world and has its own currency, the Euro. What would happen if the BRICS countries demanded to be paid for their goods in Yuan and America, the EU, the Uk, and all the other nonBRICS countries refused and said they would only pay in their own currencies ? China couldn’t afford not to sell to the rest of the world. All countries will continue to have their own currencies and trade with each othe

I think the Rolex issue was just the culmination of many other issues ! Cheers.

Talking of Rolex’s, years ago I knew a bloke in the Middle East , his nick name “Dodgy Dave” should give an insight into him. Anyway, his missus wanted a Rolex for Xmas, so he bought a snide one in Thailand, then went to the Rolex dealers in Saudi, where he had bought his own genuine watch, and put on a sob story about the box getting damaged and could they give him a replacement box, which they did. He put the snide watch in the genuine box and gave it to his missus, who was over the moon! Of course the obvious happened and after a short while the snide Rolex packed in. She too
