I was bartering for this in the old suq in Jeddah in my poor arabic and the guy wanted SR300, then my son spoke to him in arabic , showed him photos of his Saudi wife and his son and suddenly the price was SR100 ! Cheers.

And tagalog, Thai and various central Asian dialects…… Cheers.

My two children went to school in the Middle East in an English/ American school curriculums and learned Arabic as their second language, but when my son went to boarding school in England for his final few years, he was taught German, for some reason that escapes me ! My two nieces who are New Zealanders we’re taught Japanese and Chinese as second languages. Id say these days, just in my opinion, mind you, the languages a youngster would need are, in order of importance are; English, Chinese, Spanish, ( because of the South American countries that speak it), Arabic, Japanese, Frenc

I once spent an entire long haul flight trying to converse in my pidgin Italian with a steward , he kept me well supplied in drinks and was very pleasant, but as I disembarked, he whispered “ by the way, I’m Spanish”, I replied “ ces’t la vie” and he laughed…. Cheers.

Surely you get your own southern hemisphere’s version, Aurora Australis down there ? Gu’day, mate !

I speak English, well, as much as a Geordie can ! And also get by in Arabic. I can have very basic conversations in a couple of other languages, and can manage a menu in a few other languages. Interesting that Spanish is a Romance language, but the Germanic/ Anglo Saxon “carnage” isn’t to far from the Spanish for “ butchery “. My grandson is fluent in spoken, written and reading English and Arabic and is learning Japanese. Three massively different languages. He’s won his school spelling bee two years in a row against older children, so I’m guessing he has an aptitude for it !

Newcastle have had a roller coaster ride with managers over the years, some, like Alladyce, McClaren, Joe Kinnear, Bruce, we’re hated by the fans and achieved nothing. Some, like Robson, Keegan, Benitez, we’re loved by the fans but, again, achieved nothing. We’ve had the all out attacking and flair of Keenan’s “Entertainers” to the dire, soul destroying negativity of Bruce, who championed “ not getting beat over winning” ! Now we have a manager in Howe, who is adored by the fans and is playing the football most fans anywhere would like to see. Will he win anything ? I hope

Perhaps the pervert got turned on watching that fat tart shitting in the fountain ? Cheers.

We don’t molest seagulls, though…… Man jailed for performing sex act while kneeling over captured seagull NEWS.SKY.COM David Lee, 40, told police that he believed the seagull was hurt and that he was searching for a vet's number... Stones, glass houses, etc, LOL ! Cheers.

There’s a complete breakdown of society that enables these freaks to think they can do these things. We are seeing the decline and fall of western society, it’s nothing new, think of the Roman Empire, the mongol empire, the Austro Hungarian empire, the Soviet empire, and others. There isn’t a strong man or a strong political party that will say “ stop ! Enough! This madness has to end”! Just look at what happened yesterday, a Tory from the “far right” of the party, a prominent member of the ERG, crossed the floor of parliament and joined Labour and was welcomed with open arms by Star

I ferment gallons of nettles ; no, not for drinking ! LOL ! It’s an excellent liquid fertiliser for tomatoes ! Cheers.

Moyes out; Lepetegui in ? Cheers.

Yes, they have the same greyhound dam, an Irish coursing bitch sired by Mafi Magic the Irish coursing champion. The sires are pure deerhounds . The sire to my bitch is the grand sire to the pup, so they are very closely related. Cheers.

It’s imported Bombay Sapphire Sunset gin with Fevertree rhubarb tonic, ice , and lemon slices , gay, or what ! LOL ! Cheers.

To be honest, I had a cocktail or two to celebrate Newcastles victory over Burnley and let my, usually, impeccable spelling slip ! But I’m happy in the knowledge that one of my acolytes would leap in to correct me . Namasay, Salam Alaykum, Cheers. (please select your own salutation, I’m an equal opportunities smarmy git).

“If you hear hoof beats; assume horses, not zebras”. Unless, of course, if you are on the Serrangetti ! After all, theories are just that…. Theories. Cheets.

I employ Occums Razor on numerous occasions. Better than spinning a coin or Rock Paper Scissors. Just my opinion , of course. Cheers.

Called in to Gins house last week and saw a group of seven roe sunning themselves in a field and on the way back one was dead on the central reservation. I see them standing on the hard shoulder of the A1 nibbling the tops off the newly planted trees. Cheers.

They can’t send them back here because the Irish Supreme Court, with the backing of the Irish Government declared the UK an “unsafe country” meaning they can’t send illegal immigrants back here, but I’m sure they could, in EU law, send them back to France, but as they threw away all their passports and I.D.’s how do you prove the came to the UK from France? I can’t see them volunteering that information ! Looks like Ireland is stuck with them…..unless Sunak bottles it and takes them back, or they wait till Starmer gets in and Labour will welcome them with open arms. Cheers.

Depends how far you want to go back ? Indo-European? Cheers.

Well it’s not Welsh, is it ? LOL ! Cheers.

Great game ! Bingham played the best I’ve seen since he won the world championship. Cheers.
