There are 1,500,000,000 Indians. There are bound to be one or two that’ll try and over- charge a naive tourist, but surely you can’t tar them all with the same brush.

It’s a frequent occurrence and ‘normal’ behaviour for kids now. One earlier this month near Glasgow where a 13 y/o girl was beaten after being rendered unconscious and it all being filmed by other kids. It makes me seethe watching this stuff, and I think I could happily knock seven shades of sh!t out of those cowardly little b*****ds.., children or not. God only knows how it would make me feel if it was my child. I’m pretty sure those kids and/or their parents would be getting a proper hiding.., and I’d been looking at a bit of jail time Girl, 13, dragged unconscious thro

Mobile phones and the fact everyone has a camera/video recorder in their pocket all the time. And the fact anything you do might wind up there for all the world to see. Have a straightener in the street.., some w4nk will put it on Facebook. Have a bump in your motor.., it’ll wind up on Facebook. People at their lowest ebb or most vulnerable, someone will serve them up for the entertainment of millions on Facebook. A couple of years ago a fireman was overcome fighting a fire and as he lay dying in the street with paramedics desperately trying to save him, people were actually filming it…, no do

To be fair, we could solve that without France. Remove all incentive to come here and they’d stop on mainland Europe.

‘Live and let live’. That’ll be lost on a few off here.

Eubank v Benn - the tribute act this weekend. I’ve just bet Eubank.., does anyone see any other outcome?

Warrior. Watchable if a bit corny in bits.

Fistful of Dollars. Now watched the dollars trilogy with my 15yo lad.., over 40 years after I watched these with my old man.

I wonder what the average age of a combat soldier was.

Last post reminded me of when I was a boy in the 70’s and all boys played football every day. There weren’t a lot of black or mixed kids around us or at our school. Of the three lads I knew (or knew of), two of the were nicknamed Pele. Neither were very good either. Can’t imagine it happening now, but no-one seemed to mind it at the time.

To me the merlin app is incredible. I can identify plenty of birds by their song, but there are plenty I can’t. The app lets you know what’s around you even when you can’t see it, especially the little brown jobs, the warblers, black caps, white throats, chats etc. This time of year is the best too, when the dawn chorus is in full flow. Such a buzz watching the birds pop up on the app as it picks them up.

Curlew yes. One near me has just a little bit of car alarm now too.

Not much of a rugby fan but I remember the nation being absolutely captivated by this match.

Gets weirder and more needy by the day.

I couldn’t give less of a monkeys about the whole lot of them, except the paedo prince who should be locked in the tower. Regarding queen horse face, and king sausage fingers.., if you’re the king and can’t decide to call your missus the queen, then what’s the point in even being king?

When I was a kid we had a telephone in the house identical to the one in the photo. Those of a certain age will remember the trill sort of tone it made rather than the bell sound of other phones. Anyway, my mum used to do her nut as a starling would sit on the fence outside the kitchen window mimicking the sound of that phone, and she’d run off to answer it.

Really interesting observation that. Corvids are very smart so there’ll definitely be method to them doing it. Not the same but I posted on here last year about a starling around me singing what sounded like a pond full of mallards. Never managed to record or ‘merlin’ it yet.

Pop not really a word up here, was just the juice lorry. They certainly kept the dentists busy in the days before the word ‘diet’ might prefix your fizzy drink of choice.

Well I never. UK Supreme Court rules legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex - live updates WWW.BBC.CO.UK Judges say the "concept of sex is binary" while adding that transgender people...

Went to stock car racing quite a bit many years ago as had a mate that raced, bangers were usually at the end of the night and always good fun.

Just witnessed one. Rory McIlroy completing the slam. Incredible drama.

It’s a beautiful day here, but with April’s showers in the post for next week. I’ve already spent over an hour tidying and watering the garden and getting pots ready for planting. Going to head out in a minute and do a bit more, but thought I’d have a quick look on THL and see what’s cooking. FFS! Surely some of you have better things to do on a Friday night or a glorious spring Saturday morning than come on here for this sh!te?

Had more sparrowhawks in the garden the last few weeks than I’ve had all winter. Don’t know where they go. Been a nest on a golf course 2 minutes from me for a few years now. Last Autumn there were 6 young birds kicking about together, I assume all fledged from the same nest. Quite a sight.
