Not a place to take a dog; hot, crowded, and idiots wanting to buy your dog. I’ve never taken a dog with me, far easier without one. Cheers.

I thought it was the stop off at Kirkby that was closing the pubs and blocking the verges and lay-by’s ? Some of the lads set off the other day in vardo’s, going over Hartside and dropping down to Kendal. I usually go but haven’t been for a couple of years, might have a look this year if I’m not busy. Cheers.

A good read , Ray. Reminds me of a tale I’ve told on here in the past; me and LDR were out coursing first light up Northumberland and then two tractors appeared on opposite sides of the field and came at us in a pincer movement ! Now LDR was half my age and a very fit young bloke. He took off like a whippet, cleared a stream and vaulted the barbed wire fence on the other side. I approached the stream with trepidation but managed, just , to clear the stream but grabbed the top strand of the wire and fall backwards, ending up horizontal, inches above the water ! I was shouting “pu

Sorry to hear this, Ray . I’m same age but no problems up to now, but I’m resigned to them coming ! Ive got a 28”, 70lb bitch who’s a bit of a handful, but I’m ok with her, in fact seriously thinking of getting a pup ! Hope you recover soon. Cheers, Richie.

Eyup Keith ! Hope you’re well mate ! Cheers.

I had a few drinks with the Dortmund fans when they played Newcastle; an excellent bunch of lads. I had them in some of the roughest bars in the Toon and even had them drinking Newcastle Brown Ale. They arranged to meet my nephew and his mates in Dortmund for the away game and look after them, which they did. Cheers.

Especially when espoused by a left winger…. Cheers.

I wasn’t aware it was a competition ! Just Saturday night banter. Cheers.

Being in the company of Messers Biden, Sunak and Starmer, even without alcohol, wouldn’t just dull my senses, it would make me consider self harming ! I’d have a better conversation with the local paraffin, sharing a park bench and a bottle of Thunderbird ( can you still get Thunderbird ?). Cheers.

Just my opinion, but it may be what Man U had but have now lost; the “fear factor”. Any team going up against Real Madrid may have a psychological disadvantage and not play with the confidence they would against other teams. As I say, just my opinion. At least my grandson will be happy, he called me to try and convince his mother to let him stay up to watch the game even though it’s a school day tomorrow, he will go to bed happy ! Cheers.

When the choice in the US is between bonkers, (Trump), and senile, (Biden) I use the “pint test”. Who would I rather have a pint with, and it’s 100% Trump ! In the UK if the choice is between bonkers, (Farage), deluded, (Sunak) , or opportunist liar, (Starmer), then it would obviously be Farage ! Hardly a scientific way to pick a leader, but sadly, looking at the choices we have, I can’t think of a better way !!!! Cheers.

You know the old saying mate; “ if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it’s probably a duck, not a chicken !” The absolute definition of Occams Razor ! Cheers.

German is a strange language, words like “zeitgeist “, “schardenfruede”, etc, that we don’t have a single word equivalent in English, and now I have “fernweh” to add to my vocabulary to bore dinner guests with ! LOL ! Cheers.

You’re a capitalist running dog, Praetorian Guard to the devilish overlords who’s only role is to destroy the Proletariat ! Or, maybe you just found an occupation you enjoy………. As you mentioned; “Occams Razor”; the simplest explanation is usually the correct one. Cheers,

Shed ? SHED ? I prefer to call it “The Fortress Of Solitude” or “The Cave Of Manliness “ ! LOL ! Cheers.

The Bushido Code isn’t a bad thing to base your beliefs on. Kanpai !

No, Japan was one of the few countries our airline didn’t fly to. My missus and her pals used to fly to Seoul on the red eye and do a days shopping and fly back on the return flight. We had hubs in Thailand and Philippines so it was around that area of south east Asia I used to frequent mostly. To be honest, I’ve never fancied Japan, don’t know why, might add it to the bucket list. Cheers.

Seppuku. Cheers.

If there wasn’t so many witnesses, I would have been sorely tempted to give him the “double tap”….. Cheers.

Every Democrat and left wing commentator that I’ve heard being interviewed has said “ this shows no one is above the law” and “the law applies to everyone”. Well , Trump is awaiting trial in Florida for having classified documents at his home. Biden had classified documents piled up in his garage at his home…. But no charges have been brought ! “ all equal under the law” eh ? Cheers.
-
Evidently he can only pardon himself with Federal offences , not State offences . This trial was brought by New York prosecutors not Federal prosecutors. Nixon, Clinton, Biden have never been charged and taken to court, seems a bit political to me, wether he did the crimes or not. Cheers.

To paraphrase Billy Connolly; “Any one who shows a desire to be a politician should be barred from ever becoming one” ! Cheers.

Trump found guilty of all 34 charges !! Cheers.

Looks like one of those WW2 leather jerkins that dustmen used to wear ! Not knocking it, have you seen how much they cost now, if you can find one ! Cheers,

Cameron entered a Coalition with the LibDems; Nick Clegg as Deputy Prime Minister, who immediately did an about turn on University fees, and his side kick Ed Davey who as Post Office Minister did a Pontius Pilate and washed his hands of the Horizon scandal; “ nothing to do with me mate “ ! Theresa May entered a “confidence and supply agreement “ with the DUP, until they disagreed with her Brexit deal and walked away. So, I’m not keen on either arrangement. I’d rather have a government with a huge majority of , say, eighty seats so they can get things done ….oh ! Hold on, that didn’t
