  1. According to America's budget office, they have borrowed 50 billion dollars per week for the last 5 months. A figure they say is unsustainable. Fucks sake, if they go bust, what then? I'm going to give them beads another shake.
  2. Nobody was on their deathbed wishing they'd spent more time working.
  3. My Mrs has developed a thick skin to my sense of humour. I've had a litter storm of official looking HMRC letters of late. As I brought her her morning cup of tea she asked what were the latest letters about. Grim faced, I told her it was bad news, I had been ordered to serve on a minesweeper in the Strait of Hermuz. " Don't be daft" she said " "do you think I was born yesterday? You're too old" Now loooking ashen faced I started to pack some clothes, picked up my phone and pretended to speak to some head honcho in the navy. I looked round to see her reaction and she had
  4. I feel better now after your reassurance. So much so that I'm happily trotting off to bed with a warming mug of cocoa, my rosary beads and worry beads. Thank you and good night.
  5. All my wealth is going to Mchull. Anybody born and bred in Hull is deserving of my humble possessions.
  6. I must admit I'm getting scared now. I'm not normally phased by world events or medical scares, because dying at my stage of life is something which is going to come relatively soon anyway, not that I'm inviting it or looking forward to it. But the potential for this war to escalate and the subsequent global ramifications for future generations are huge. It's beginning to hit home just what a firestorm this is becoming. I'm scared of desalination plants being hit, the Strait of Hormuz remaining a war zone indefinitely and even the possibility of Israel deploying a nucear warhead. I
  7. I hope Im wrong, but it seems staged to me. I think the wolf was a 'dropper'. Probably been 'dropped' numerous times. It seems to know what's coming.
  8. Here's my mate ringing his bell. Apparently there is a tradition on the ward that patients who have had successful treatment sing a song or perform a poem. One patient roller_ skated out of the ward, down the corridor and out of the main door. My mate couldn't think of anything so just invited the nurses to join him for a drink. Which turned into a few drinks.
  9. I'm meeting a friend tomorrow who has just finished his last course of treatment. Apart from tiredness, he hasn't had any side effects . The ward sister rang a special bell to send him on his way and to signify successful treatment. He's now officially in remission.
  10. I'm watching Madrid v Man City. What a hat trick by Valverde! Men against boys at the moment.
  11. You couldn't write it. I wonder if they argue when they are putting out the bins? Lol
  12. It never ends well when working class people brag about their former poverty. It can get quite heated. 'I was poorer than you!' One up manship takes many forms.lol
  13. I've been browsing and reading about the 'war'. One thing struck me. The American right swept Trump into power. Rightist think tanks led by Steve Bannon , Charlie Kirk, Tucker Carlson and others have been strategising the right's forward march in America and Europe. Decades of liberalism, rightly or wrongly have been pushed back. The right seem united on immigration, race, the 'castration' of men in modern society, opposition to Islam and the promotion of christian values. But the right is divided on Israel. Many right wingers led by young men like Nick Fuentes, share nazi ideolog
  14. " spitting prick". Correct.
  15. Interesting. https://youtu.be/LCO98felMvQ?si=NEv8pJw0o-WO_pq2
  16. So much for the new manager bounce. Time for ...........Big Sam!
  17. Agreed. Great game . Barca in their Dyno Rod strip were second best. Silly lad at the end to concede that penalty.
  18. One of the reasons lurchers are used instead of straight greyhounds is to slow them down! Some of the 3/4 bred dogs can almost match greyhounds when they are timed at a greyhound track. The same is true of the straight deer/ grey according to Doherty's book. I had a 3/4, not from Hancock, but it wasn't an all or nothing type bitch. It's temperament was quite cautious. We all say we had a great dog in the past . Well this 3/4 I had wasn't great but a definite good un. Cracking worker and brilliant, sensible pet. She was good in moonlight as well as the lamp and great at
  19. There's also the school of thought that America's economy relies to some extent on periodically deploying its weapons so that somewhere in the world America, or one of its arms customers, is engaging in war. I see Trump as a useful idiot and frontman to the " dark forces" which really control America. There may come a time when he will have to be disposed of in some way or other. I think Vance is a lightweight whose opinion, if he has one, matters little. It will be fascinating to see where this war goes and how the Republicans hold on to power as we approach the next electio
  20. Result! We kinda supported the yanks but not really. That's diplomacy.
  21. Some reports suggest the Israelis started the operation and the yanks kind of felt obliged to join in. Their stated reasons for the attack have varied. Genuine regime change for the better would be great, but highly unlikely. According to Trump and Hesgeth, the 'war' is almost won so we can expect the american fleet to be leaving soon. Trump and co will be very aware of the effect the military operation has had on the global economy so it's unlikely to last much longer as far as I can see. Will their stated aims have been achieved? Who knows? Since nobody knows what the aim
  22. I'm all for cultural relativity, cross fertilisation of ideas and multiculturalism. I am a modern ,broad minded individual. Henceforth, I am adopting a Muslim value. I hereby announce that my left hand is assigned bum wiping duties and my right hand chip eating chores. Also I always wondered why Dr Patel made me wait so long and washed his hands after the initial shaking of hands. I can't help being left handed.ffs.
  23. Does that happen ? We could quickly remedy that get _out clause by a change of law to prohibit it. A mix and match of western and Islamic law to suit ourselves. It's only a musing anyway. It would never happen. But seriously, I genuinely believe that those industrial scale rapes only happened because the perpetrators knew the chances of serious punishment were slim.
  24. With regard to law, it seems reasonable to me, to try a man based on his own ethnic, cultural or religious norms. So for example, a Pakistani child rapist should be sentenced and punished under either his mother country's laws or Shariah law. Either way he would face the death penalty.

    Pet hates.

    Danny Dyer. Plastic prick with a silly geezer's walk. And the Gallagher brothers. For the same reasons.
