I know there is a lot of jest and tongue in cheek humour in some of these posts but I am increasingly seeing really mild mannered compassionate people expressing more and more what could be considered extreme views. Think it was Wilf who said how brutal and inhumane the most normal person can be when there backed into a corner and feel they have no other option. Cant see any middle ground for this issue now its going to go one of two ways and either aint pretty!

I've had this discussion on here before, the thing is most of the stuff in UK shops is purchased from China its just rebranded and sold at x10 plus £. Watch the "independent traders" on ebay slowly drop off as people catch wind they have been buying in bulk adding a mark up and selling on at a profit and nobody bats a eye lid as they put a union jack on their advert and claim they are a "UK trader". Unless we bring manufacturing back to the UK and stop screwing over the consumer TEMU and sites similar will be the only place to buy stuff before long.

And if not delivered in the time frame stated they automatically give you a £5 credit. Get most of my terminal fishing tackle from there now as its the same quality but more than half the price. Word of caution gets addictive things keep popping up for stupid money to add to the cart, all those 50p's soon add up

I bought 3 cat fish rods, 50" net for the trip and blanked so if you decide to give it a go give me a shout as your more than welcome to borrow the rods and net as you will be passing me on the way there

Difficult one to agree with you on this as I have one son who still lives with us, gives us a peppercorn rent and has saved his entire working life. He now has enough to buy a small house outright but chooses to live with us as its easier. The other is married with 2 kids and is on the rental market which is partly their choice as the government fund the rent with benefits. They dont want a mortgage as it would impact on the benefits and in turn mean they would have to curb their current lifestyle. Financially they are better off than we were at their age and the advancement of tech has

70's/80's for me but it wasn't easy and in all fairness as kids there was no money we made our own entertainment which seems to be a lost trait with the youngsters of today. Seems to be a real hate on for anyone in the 55+ bracket from youngsters at the moment, heard some pretty nasty vitriol on podcasts etc.

Andrew Bridgen already saying we are at war with Russia and Rishi has brought the GE forward so he's not in charge when its officially announced. National service, preparedness message from the government, emergency alarms tested on phones, NATO "training" on the Russian border etc. Bridgen is a bit "out there" but he's not like the rest of the sheep in government so who knows.

Its crazy to think 2.5 days to go from car to class 1, 1 day reversing, 1 day driver training, half day test. Obviously have to do your theory first, which judging by our drivers appears to be the hardest part 100% pass rate with our lot on the driving though.

Just passed this in Umberleigh North Devon, couldnt stop but did a google search and found it as I was gutted I didnt get a picture. Passing today looked like somebody had thrown red paint over it but stunning all the same.

Blood test now apparently but dont even try the doctors even though the advert on the TV says all men over 50 should get tested the gestapo on the reception wont book a appointment unless you got blood in your piss! Interesting about the nettle tea, I've reverted to being 8 years old and don't drink any liquids after 7pm still getting up once or twice in the night though........dropped off the cliff when I hit 50.

It is mate a 10 minute walk from my house, I reckon there's only 10/15 carp place is a shit hole really. I spent 2 weeks baiting and cleaning a spot every evening a while back the day before I was due to fish it some little scrotes lobbed 2 shopping trolleys right on my spot I have 3 other tickets but keep getting drawn back there. I pick a bag of rubbish and dog shit bags up each time I go, annoying part is there are bins dotted around the place but its free fishing so I give a little back that way.

No mate pond off the back of a38 have to battle the druggies drunks and shopping trolleys but there’s something about it keeps me wanting to fish it. Walrows had some investment lately cracking venue now doing 30’s every week and cheap as chips just had a knarly looking 16lber

Holiday Inn one of the corporate hotel chains taking them owned by IHG group, Ive already wrote to them and advised I will never use them again.

Funny you mention that St Johns lane near the centre was called Kebab alley by the locals when we moved in its now had its name changed to flip flop alley. We moved there a little over 3 years its changed massively in that short period of time we are right on the outskirts so we only notice it when we venture into the town. Thanks mate appreciate the thought. We just got the house to where we want it and now we may have to have them move in, like you though I wouldn't have it any other way.
-
Bridgwater, its why we moved down that way and looking like they will be moving in with us for a bit now. In all fairness Im not sure its migrants going to be moving in on this one think its a divorce settlement issue but the shortage is definitely down to "over crowding" in the area. Latest figures show there are just 267 council houses available in the whole of the Sedgemoor area and the local Holiday inn and care home are now housing over 450 illegals. You don't need to be a mathematical genius to work out what shit storm we are walking into.

So true, my lad and his wife just been issued a section 21 on the property they rent with their 3 year old and 6 month old giving them 2 months to move out. Mortgage and 3 bed rentals beyond their joint incomes so 2 beds are there only options. Letting agents are so inundated they are only taking on 7 applications before shutting down adverts, shocking situation.

Probably did mate but never paid any attention to them always after the marbles in the bottle. Did get stuck in the mud over at Pill once managed to drag myself out but was absolutely covered in it got one of the biggest bollockings of my life off my Dad.

Eid riots in Southall London and not one mention on MSM Nigel Farage SHOCKED by Eid RIOTS in West London as youths throw RUBBISH and bottles at police (youtube.com)

Used to find loads when we were kids in the mud on the River Avon as well as clay pipes and codd bottles, being kids we used to just smash them up especially the codd bottles to get the marble out. Understanding the history behind them now makes me feel a little ashamed.

Two Tier policing at its finest, apparently they broke away from the march they organised to cause the damage. Anyone who's been caught up in a police escort for a football match knows you step one foot outside the cordon you get battered, arrested and sent straight to court that's even if they don't serve you a section 60 before you get that far.
