I used to always have an interest in how people were moved from country to country both legally and illegally,Ireland used to be a grey-area route into the UK now it’s a destination in its own right,Indians will use the new visa route to get in,the clock is ticking for Europe as a whole,the whole third world is filling the west,a dripping tap fills the bucket.

I don’t know mate,I have always had an interest in human migration but it’s quickening up nowadays and it’s large scale 1.4 billion Indians potentially given access to the EU can’t end well,their culture doesn’t mix with Europe at all,long term it’s not good news.
-
They say it’s to make it easier for the EU to get access to India’s huge highly-skilled workforce,meaning replacement in action.
-
It’s a mobility and partnership agreement to fast-track visas,the EU is getting more Indians
-
Europe has also signed a deal with India (bad idea).

Yup,the camera panned during her speech,but remember,they aren’t normal in the Hollywood scene,most are freaks

Good trip,I missed out on the Midway but there’s always next time,what did you think of the area around Laguna beach?Stunning coastline,my mate lives a stones throw away near the big bass pro in Irvine,he is a real free-spirit surf dude,your flight is today?

I have a grandchild being born soon in the sunshine state,that will be my next destination,I was actually thinking earlier me my son and his child will all have been born on different continents,California can wait a while,but I will be back Wiarton Willie the Ontario groundhog was on TV earlier predicting another 6 weeks of winter which is fine,i have enjoyed it thus far,watched Ice carvers earlier and been invited to watch a skidoo race 20 km down a frozen river later in the week.

Did a bit of research tats "Some component parts" for Crispi are made in China and Romania,I am guessing that could be the laces or the speed hooks?I had solid ice on both boots the other week,kicked them against a rock to break it off,warm feet always even when out in snow and ice daily,I think they are incredibly well made.

Come on man,it’s Bangers we are chatting about,the man,the myth,the legend,he laughs at injuries,he would still be putting the miles in if he was on his death bed,he is an ebeneezer,a crowd pleaser,a proper geezer
-
Don’t be nasty,take him out over the next week,give him a decent day out,he will enjoy it I think
-
Bangers is the one on 24/7

Oi,check out the statistics for this thread

It’s a pity you haven’t time to visit the avenue of giants and the lost coast heading up to Oregon mate,but there’s always next time there’s houses in the giant sequoias,real tree houses,don’t ask how but when you see a tree with a front door and windows in the trunk it’s a WTF moment
-
Which app is that on Leo? went to the cinema a few days back to watch The Housemaid,more twists and turns than an Italian alpine road,stars Brandon Sklenar of 1923 fame,the trailer for the film gives nothing whatsoever away 8/10
-
I haven’t been to Solvang mate,I spend a couple of months in LA a few years ago,right next to Compton then I moved to Corona del mar,two totally different contrasts,your going down through long beach,huntington beach and Laguna,surf central,beautiful stretch of coastline
-
California Karen’s you going down the coast Santa Monica,long beach,HB etc?Try and make a couple of hours for Corona or emerald bay,Corona because it’s just such a pristine town and emerald bay for scenery
-
There’s normally a couple from here go,I think @mel b will be going?

September I was on a rooftop above Whitehall,best seat in the house,always good to get an elevated position
