  1. These days you can live " among 75 women in the women's prison" . Just put a skirt on and declare yourself a woman . Job done.

  4. Some are dangerous walking time bombs. In my more 'authoritarian' moments, I fantasise about locking them up before the inevitable happens. https://genius.com/Gilbert-and-sullivan-ive-got-a-little-list-lyrics
  5. In a pub on the 11th. It's the headquarters of Royal British Legion. There were maybe 150 servicemen from RAF Spadeadam in uniform and 30 or so vets. I found it moving. Nice to rub shoulders with some decent blokes. Not a paedophile , nob jockey or a fuckwit in sight.

  8. What happened to Dave Angel? Great Fast Show character. And right!
  9. My old man used to repair our shoes. He would cut leather and nail and glue new soles and heels on. The trouble he should have stuck to the day job. He was a shit cobbler. Half way to school and either a heel or a sole would fall off. Back home he would accuse me of being rough on the shoes and playing football in them. The truth was I used to take my shoes off and play in goal rather than wear them because they always fell apart. I remember once there being football trials for the county. You had to have proper football boots to get on the field. I had to borrow a pair from my c
  10. Anything juicy to tell us? You can't just leave us hanging like that.
  11. Tell the truth. You'd be destroyed because nobody would fancy you. I heard your last lover say he was very disappointed with you. " Lacking passion, warmth and imagination" were his exact words. One day I will reveal that lover's name. He's on here. To that person..... Don't annoy me or I will grass.
  12. When I first started work there were lots of ex servicemen who had fought in WW2. Some had lost a leg, others were missing an arm and a lot had shell shock. Every pub had some poor sod marching up and down the bar believing he was still on parade. I remember asking one guy if he'd killed any germans. He said he hoped not, they were just in the f****n war like him. He said all he remembered was firing his rifle from a trench, with his trousers around his ankles and "skitters flying from my arse" from dysentery. He said you don't feel brave, or anything except fear and misery with uncontro
  13. I don't know mate. Several tourists were drowned in Teneriffe yesterday. Just unusual swell in the waves. I've often thought when I've been there that tourists were taking liberties with tides they know nothing about. Like cops the sea can be a good servant but a cruel master.
  14. You may well be right. I got into a pigeon English chat with some Filipino trawlermen up in Ullapool. They had just about emptied a couple of charity shops up there. One of them insisted I talk to his Mrs on video chat on his phone. A beaming lady with half a dozen nippers greeted me with big smiles, waves and hellos. Quite a nice moment.
  15. No I mean know the skippers. Scary feckers who have no moral compass and no or little fear. Some Thais actually swam for the shore to escape the conditions on the ship. Their abuse was proven in court, but the skipper got off with a slap on the wrist.
  16. I came to the conclusion religion is the exercise of ultimate power, which often leads to sexual abuse and the extortion of money. I go with the belief that if there is a power out there, you are best communicating with or feeling that power in the natural world. In the seas , the woods and the mountains. How's that for today's thought for the day? Lol
  17. I'm a bit cynical Mack. Would the young lad really have received enlightment? Whatever that is? He would be more likely be loopy because of sensory deception and no human contact. But if he did, or thinks he did, good luck. There's millions of ways to live life. Most don't get the luxury of choice. But if that is his chosen path. Fairplay.
  18. I don't agree. There are modern slaves in the fishing industry. In the old days if you were a trawlerman, you got a share of the catch and the skipper got two shares. An ordinary bloke could make serious money as long as they didn't blow it on drugs or drink etc. Then the skippers realised they could employ foreigners for a tenner an hour. Then a fiver an hour. Then a few quid a trip. I know of foreigners being beaten up, constantly bullied and physically abused. One skipper used to throw the few quid he owed them onto the deck to humiliate them. Others received no money at all. Some were inju
  19. There's a Buddhist temple near me. I often go there for a walk around the gardens which are very peaceful. I've spoken to lots of mostly young people there who have decided to become monks. People from all over the world. They all say they are seeking peace and meaning in their lives. They all reject the materialist world. Fair. I quite often go into the temple just to observe and have occasionally spun the prayer wheels. But nothing came of my prayers, so I figured there was nothing in it and nobody out there.lol
  20. Financial crime is very common. A Chinese woman has just been sentenced to 11 years for financial crimes which netted her over 5 billion pounds. Yes 5 billion pounds! Something to do with bitcoin, I don't even understand what it is tbh. If somebody had said to me at say 30 years old, you can make 5 billion for your family and serve 40% of an eleven year sentence, I think I would be very, very tempted. In fact I would jump at it. A mate of my mine is an much more awkward leftie than me and is currently serving 5 months at 75 years of age for refusing to pay a tax bill of 20 grand or

    The whole point of my argument is the rich don't pay their fair share. The whole system is rigged so we pay far more in proportion than they do. It's a crooked deck. There are better ways to do things. Let's see how the New York fella gets on.

    Is that the best you can do? Poofter and racial slurs? Debate by cartoons ? Which of the man's policies do you disagree with?

    I think a lot of us have come to that conclusion.

    Correct. My mistake. Born in Uganda to an Indian multi faith family. Whatever that is. He may have adopted his wife's religion. Or he may been from an Indian family who retained their religion after partition. I'm not sure. But, fair. My mistake.

    I hadn't realised Russia was in the discussion. Where did that come from? They've been doing f***ing great since they rid themselves of their royalty and their tsars. Pity some of their royals came over as refugees and joined our public payroll. Still they keep the Germans and the Greek contingent company eh? Russians' living standards have improved beyond measure. A far cry from millions dying from starvation whilst the tsars partied. Same as the chinks. Once they got rid of the landlords they flourished. They too moved from starving peasants to a serious world leader with a scar
