“Oh I did a health and safety talk today and………” zzzzzzz…..zzzzzzz…..zzzzzzz You know how they say hundreds are leaving the army, those are all the ones that had to listen to his method statement briefings……

They are too cold and too flimsy mate, this job will be 100mm insulation in walls, floor, roof. 100mm stud walls Sheathed in 18mm OSB, floors are 7 x 1 1/2 again with OSB laid on top, roof the same. Wrapped with breathable membrane and then clad in powder coat black corrugated steel……so it will be a proper all weather all year round home. Still thinking about inside but I’m guessing it will be a timber clad scandi type job, she wants a Belfast sink and all that caper……statics are only about 40mm walls with polystyrene insulation, take some keeping warm in winter mate. This li

Same as that, they came here with a view to do the tiny house and she decided he was a non starter (after 3 years) and binned him……not a minute too soon to be fair, blokes in tatters as a man ! Lol (Ask Stiff ! Lol ) Thanks for the offer mate, duly noted…… She is off to Cyprus for a work meeting (that’s obviously going to take a week !!) and Dad is here living on anti inflammatory tablets……I’m getting it all wrong mate ! Lol

Yes mate, it’s nice to be at something that’s interesting. Been retired 9 years now so it’s a novelty doing a bit of graft…..not sure my joints agree, they are like “hold on ! What the f**k is going on here again?” Lol

My daughter has decided after 6 months of mortgage that it’s a massive scam and is selling her house and wants me to build her a tiny home on my place (she has also aimed out the boyfriend as well which is a bonus ! Lol ) So for any lads that may be interested, I’ve made a start and here is a few photos. Ill post a few more as we go along The base is an old 2 berth caravan that we stripped down and tipped, I’ve then had a local old boy weld me up a 6m long frame to fix on the top of the caravan chassis, the chassis are approx 1300mm wide. All strong box tube, we wi

Yep, I totally get all that mate, There’s plenty of value in everything you say. Somewhere like I live is isolated for kids, without a doubt but it’s 10 minutes into town car ride and my lad can see all his pals, go to the pub for a night out without fear of getting stabbed, everyone knows everyone and they all watch out for each other…..so it’s swings and roundabouts mate, but I do take your point. My opinion (and it is only just mine) is that our kids are going to have to deal with stuff we wouldn’t have dreamed of in our wildest nightmares and will be less free than we ever were….

I totally get the attitude of it’s a noble thing to stay in your area, but at the same token who would want to be 75 and living on some estate in Peckham or Catford ?……bars on your windows and doors and afraid to walk down the shop ? Obviously I understand the mindset of wanting to get the f**k out, who wants to live amongst these people when you are completely helpless to stop it ?…….you only get one life and at some point you have to not think about “you” and think about your kids. Its a hard one, I don’t think there is a right or wrong answer, you make your choices and live with it.

I watched a good documentary on YouTube about people from your manor mate, it was called something like “The last Eastender” or something like that…..it was about that very thing, family's who had lived down the same street forever and the daughter was moving away, another was an old girl and there was a bus driver. The funniest was a paki who could see Tate & Lyle out of his front room window saying how all the old family’s had moved out and the area was changing since traditional east Enders like his family had come to live there ! Lol

No, you wouldn’t get me back to London if you laid on a luxury state procession ! Lol

Didn’t know that mate, great all that stuff
-
That’s it, I’m all in on stuff like this….. Dutch for gloves is “Hand Shoes” ! Also, live animals in the English language are Anglo Saxon words but it’s dead form are Norman words……which probably tells us who was doing the farming and who was doing the eating ! Cow/beef Pig/pork etc etc
-
I blame the capitalists for taking everyone’s Billy cans, there a billionaire somewhere with millions of them in his shed ! Lol What are those Scottish isles where you can hear a distinct Scandinavian twang in how they speak, a leftover from Viking settlement…..I just think stuff like that is amazing

He’s up there walking the dogs 4 nights a week so if they’d have landed, he’d of seen them…..so I for one believe him !

I did, I watched the whole thing. Spread load and point load…..simple as that imho

Because they are our allies? We should have finished the job in Iraq 1st time around, but we didn’t……Isreal know the score, you have to level these people completely because they don’t forget and they don’t forgive…..hence having to go to Iraq twice, alright they made up bullshit in the UK to make the case for war but we was always going to have to go. I wouldn’t imagine anyone in Europe can do anything nuclear or otherwise in a military sense without the United States say so……that’s why it will be good when Trump wins because he will just pull the funding and Ukraine/Europe v Russia

Absolutely, we have poisoned two generations with this 3rd world culture…….we literally burned out our own foundations with it. I genuinely now believe we are seeing a country in its death throes……

Something is definitely in the air boys……there’s too many things going boss eyed in too many areas, people are murmuring…..it’s all going to go wrong ! I don’t suppose we should be surprised because the only cure for insanity is a massive helping of even more insanity !……..

I don’t know anything about Blinkden, but let’s just consider this: The man who potentially holds war in Europe in the palm of his hand is……David Lammy !!! A very ordinary solicitor who was the progeny of Bernie Grant and who’s sole credentials for the job is a life crying “racist” and throwing verbal rocks at the police about the plight of the “poor black man” Its him against an ex KGB colonel playing with catastrophe !……..brilliant !……what better man for the job huh ??!!! f***ing hell like, what f***ing morons are voting for these people !!!

My brother was probably deadly serious ! Lol ……but no, I agree, they must think “Oh f**k off, I’ve never heard that one before” lol He also grabbed hold of 007 Sean Connery at a golf club out in Portugal or Spain and was going to give him a hiding for being a rude c**t but Forsyth and Tarbuck calmed the whole situation down and sent over a bottle of champagne with their apologies ! He may have been 007 but he wasn’t born in Brockley ! Lol

Yeah, strange how that stays in the memory…..I’d just got through the tolls at the Dartford Tunnel and my Mrs phoned me and said “America is under attack !” Funny how you can remember it so precisely.

You did well to stay awake after a walk like that mate, fair play to you ! Lol

My brother did the same with Frank Bruno, they was staying in the same hotel in the Channel Islands and got chatting, my brother is about the same height as Frank and my brother says to him “You ain’t that big, I’d get in the ring and fight you for £2 million”…..he said Frank just did that deep laugh he used to do ! Lol
