  1. How many years have we been talking about this ? We need to get organised and do it ! Im not getting any younger, you know ! LOL ! Cheers.
  2. I have to respectfully disagree. Taylor hit two nine darters in the Premier League and I’m sure his averages and number of 180’s are still the best. He was exceptional and a long way better than his contemporaries. Yes, there are more players playing to a very high standard now, but I think he would, in his prime, be the one to beat now. Littler, in my opinion is the only one who could match or better Taylor’s record , because he’s young enough and good enough, as long as he keeps his head. I notice once or twice he showboats a bit, nothing wrong with that unless it’s seen as trying to
  3. The proposed law has now been discontinued due to the upcoming election. Any proposed new legislation has to receive Royal Assent today or It will be abandoned. That’s not to say the Tories or Labour won’t try to resurrect it after the election. Cheers.
  4. Don’t know about “things can only get better”; I can only see accelerated national decline with a Labour Government, as we will surely have on the 5th July…… Cheers.
  5. I think the Hunting Act has it covered by saying it’s illegal to hunt MAMMALS with a dog ; there’s no mention of native or non-native species. Cheers.
  6. I’ve never seen a working Dogo in person. Has anyone else on here ? What could they do here in the UK that a purpose bred lurcher couldn’t ? There’s dogs here that take everything in the UK , including the big deer and boar, so what would be the point of a Dogo ? I’ve often thought about having a working type Borzoi or Chartpolski or Azawak or whatever, but what would be the point ? There’s probably better lurchers available for the quarry we have here, so the “exotic” types would only be an indulgence. Just my opinion, of course. Cheers.
  7. BANZAI ! We will never accept defeat Cheers.
  8. You’re like one of those Jap soldiers, holding out on a remote Pacific island , long after the war ended, refusing to accept the result, mate ! PMSL ! Cheers.
  9. Hesgoal. You have to download some app. Cheers.
  10. I won’t be, I’ll be watching it on a snide channel, if I can stay awake long enough ! LOL ! Cheers.
  11. I don’t know if he’s been on the front line or not, but if he wins it will be massive for Ukrainian moral. It would be the opposite for moral if he WAS on the front line and was killed or, even worse, captured and paraded on tv . Just my opinion, of course. Cheers.
  12. We both do our bit, mate, I grow stuff, keep poultry, etc and she cooks stuff. Been married 48 years, so it must be working ! Cheers.
  13. Peter Hitchens ! My old adversary , LOL ! I once got the better of him in a debate about the pros and cons of the U.S.S.R. back when he was a communist before his lurch to the right. He wasn’t amused and name-checked me and slagged me off in his Sunday Mail column. Ive softened my attitude towards him since his conversion to Conservatism, and I agree with a lot of what he says on his regular appearances on GBNews, so yes, peoples views and opinions can change with age, experience and a changing world . Cheers.
  14. My missus has been busy in the kitchen while I was at the allotment; Two spiced mince & onion pies; A ham & sweet pepper quiche; And there’s a cheesecake in the ‘fridge ! Cheers.
  15. When she was asked her views and opinions on Hamas and her views and opinions on Israel’s right to exist, she wouldn’t answer and said that had nothing to do with the student protests, she said she had something to do with “world communism “ and the protests were about overthrowing the capitalist system ! Another over entitled, over opinionated woman, with probably no idea what the history of the “Middle East problem” is and most likely couldn’t point to Gaza on a map ! Just another revolutionary student who will probably grow up to be a Labour politician…. Just my opinion, of cou
  16. Fico was about to introduce a law banning Slovak public service broadcasting and replace it with a pro government broadcaster. A lot of people see this as an attack on free speech, the assassin was supposedly angry about it. Cheers.
  17. I could be described as a Panglossian Noctivagant ! A happy lamper ! LOL ! Cheers.
  18. Some better pics, please , and any information on its breeding ? Thanks in advance . Cheers .
  19. I thought it was a Village People tribute band …… ! LOL ! Cheers.
  20. Didn’t know there were tin mines in the north east. May have been but I’ve not heard of them. Cheers.
  21. I remember an old miner saying “ I like them that shallow, you can look up and see the turnip roots” ! Cheers.
  22. There were pits in the Newcastle/Northumberland area that went miles out under the North Sea, a standard joke was “ No wonder the Germans are pissed off with us… we’re pinching their coal “ ! Cheers.
  23. Both my children had what was known as “Mid-Atlantic” accents, but my daughters accent would change to the accent of wherever the accent of the person she was talking to was from; American, Canadian, Australian, New Zealand and even Geordie, but my sons accent never changed, I guess it may have been influenced by their jobs. My grandson has a very neutral accent, but for some reason he’s the only member of both sides of his family that “rolls his R’s” . Haven’t got a clue why . Cheers.
  24. There’s the Porn Hotel in Pattaya; Freudian Slip, perhaps ? Cheers.
  25. Had the opposite on Saturday ; it was a nice day and my missus hung out the washing to dry , as did at least two of the neighbours, then a bloke who’s just moved in behind us has a bonfire , billowing black smoke everywhere ! The ladies weren’t to pleased and the lady next door, a fiery young filly, leans out of an upstairs window and gave the fire starter some choice words ! The bloke seemed genuinely surprised, put the fire out and came round and apologised to the women . Fair doe’s to him, he probably realised he didn’t want to piss off all the women in the street when he’s just
