    Narrated by Sir Lawrence Olivier. And just before Europe decided to forget that GB saved the world.

    I've probably came across it in the past without knowing what it was, and just kicked the shit out of it, same with asbestos. But found it about 2 years ago in terraced buildings undergoing full referb/new build in the shadow of Alnwick castle. The job got stood down, reason being possible anthrax spores. Apparently they live for centuries and could have been on the animals used in the production of the original build. Samples were taken, came back negative.

    Great film, never been able to listen to Raglan Road since without that scene visualising

    Spare rib soup, that was another one. Basically ham and pea soup, the secret ingredient split peas and the ham not much more than rib bones but with lots of fresh veg from the garden/allotment. Delicious.

    Mam used to make it, mouth's watering at the memory. The word panackelty was sometimes used but more often she just called the dish tatey pot. Mam was from the Teams though. Going off on a tangent... she always maintained that when playing out along the Teams river baby otters where a common site in the murky black coaly water. Dad would always tried to correct her, they would have been rats not otters man! but she always stood her ground, no, they were baby otters. Was never really sure if she believed it or not

    Trevor's 1st day working in the fetish dungeon did not go well. The brief was: use a couple of rampant rabbits then whip it.

    No need for PLI or RAMS? Just need dogs?

    Intelligent, articulate, class, style. He proved that you can rise to the top in UK politics without having any of those qualities.

    I had intended to watch the fight. Had some daft hope that Iron Mike still had 1 last great fight left in him and would show some of the devastating power and controlled aggression that he used to have. But apparently not. I say apparently as I fell asleep on the sofa before the fight started. I don't know what time I nodded off but when waking up 6ish discovered that my glasses had fallen from my face and onto the floor, only realising when I stepped on them. Also before falling asleep had taken delivery of an Indian takeaway. Mutton tikka starter, chicken vindaloo, plain pilau ric

    You never loose your punch or They never come back Should be interesting.

    A sad situation but lovely eulogy, I should be so lucky that someone writes anything as good when I pop me clogs. Seemed a proper terrier character and lucky too, even though dealt a bad hand early days ended up being given a good quality of life with decent people. RIP.

    One of the 1st terriers that I seen worked was a dog called Flint. Long backed, bent legged Sealyham type that was taller at the back than at the front with a head like the proverbial bucket. Beautiful to my eye at the time. Well named but chosen not as a poetic connotation to hard microcrystalline quart but after the character that James Coburn played in a film that was often on the TV.

    If you're looking for names with a British connection then some of our rivers have good terrier names. Tyne, Tweed, Clyde, Dart, Dee etc. There's loads of them.

    It's just some nonsense regarding aboriginal Australians but funny when all the PC stuff backfires on people. Live by the sword, die by the sword

    Turns out he's a proper Nazi and his latest book has been banned by the PC police always thought he was a c**t! I will task one of the youngn's at work tomorrow to source me few copies if any are still available, not that I'm a Nazi, but banned/withdrawn books are only ever going to go up in value

    The Wheaten x EBT pics, lovely looking dog. I've never seen a 1st cross. The before and after shaved pics, a wolf in sheep's clothing, would be a handy type to teach uneducated dog owners to keep their rescue shelter sourced curs on the lead

    9" or under?

    Bring back the toy poodle/cocker spaniel composites. That's all I used to see round here post Covid after years of conflict with owners of dog aggressive labs and such. Loved the cock-a- poos. Even if they had a go they could be easily kicked into touch or flipped by a terrier. The trend seems to be going back to bigger dogs now. Got 4 problem dogs/owners on the go now: A very large show type Stafford but possibly AB blood - do you know his breeding? He's a rescue. Is he OK with other dogs? He's rescue (FFS!) An EBT - are you sure he's OK with other dogs? He's a rescue. A G

    I was going to try and think of something clever, and get into a silly THL nonsense exchange of words. You almost got me. Did you say your Hail Mary's and make a good Act of Contrition? No matter. One the 1st lurchers that I seen run got killed when a hare took her across a motorway. She kicked the hare up a few fields way but it was good hare and a good bitch. We were young. Seen many foxes take hounds down the same route but most were controlled. Seen a clever rat avoid the easy option of going to ground and run across a usually quiet road just a car was passing and a terrier
