  1. Shane lived the rock'n'roll lifestyle and wrote some songs that will be remembered, and had a canny innings all things considered. Working class lads are lost. They walk around site as though they have shit themselves or have a muscular injury, that's the hard man walk. Dare you to make eye contact, and when you do, they crawl into a shell and have no idea how to hold a conversation with someone who is not intimidated by them. Then go home to a lazy fat lass who.
  2. So that's rural Ireland struck off the list of places to enjoy the final 3rd of my life. Sounds like Gateshead! Cheers WILF.
  3. Walked past a grown man standing at a bus stop this morning who was wearing a baseball cap. Grown men wearing baseball caps is a pet hate of mine but get that many like them, each to their own. This was a proper bobby dazzler though, blood red with a black prancing horse logo on it. He was waiting for a bus wearing a Ferrari hat. FFS man!
  4. Dogs just know don't they? Whenever my next door neighbour's brother visits him my dog, who is usually sitting in the bay window, barks his tits off. We've had a few "words" over the years. He used to think it was acceptable to park on my drive which is around the back. He once even parked on my front lawn. Usually when we pass he makes some comment along the lines of "that dog of yours is bad bugger, goes mental every time it sees me" to which I usually reply "aye, he can spot a wrong'n a mile off!"
  5. They never slandered,
  6. A difficult thing to comment on in text. Seemed like a good man, lived a proper life, and lived to a good age. And then, R.I.P cuz of Mr. jukel123.
  7. A none Christian British family, and Martin is probably 2nd generation immigrant or possible asylum seeker going on horrible gran's' accent. Yet very relatable to and very likeable. In many ways the quintessential middle class English family apart from family Sunday dinner is on a Friday night. An example of how this great country used to work, tolerant and accepting, multi-cultural going back centuries. A civilised society. My favourite episode, when we are introduced to Mr. Morris, nice gran's boyfriend. Wise words from gentile neighbour Jim is he Hitler? Filthy slanders!
  8. A lovely afternoon at a family gathering complete with pizza oven.
  9. I have never really understood the pro argument for killing convicted criminals. I get the just rewards and an eye for an eye part but personally I would rather be killed than spend the rest of my life locked up. Some crimes should be just that, once caught and convicted then they are removed from society and are never given the opportunity to re-offend. No convicted peodophile should ever be released from prison. I don't give a shit if we kill them or not, just do not give them a prison sentence and then release them once that term has been served. Some crimes should be life, locked up until
  10. That's the ticket... make love not war
  11. Beautiful looking dogs. But also I would imagine multi-purpose, for sport and a useful type to have around to keep an eye on things.
  12. That tickled me NEWKID, picked by me then the wife did her bit, as though picking them was the hard part Looks delicious by the way, talented wife!
  13. Relocation of the place to call home is my main objective. I can go anywhere in the world. Not saying that I can go anywhere and live the life of Riley, unless it is Mavis Riley, but have enough to go anywhere and live at least a modest, comfortable life. Out of all the places being considered outside of the UK France looks the most appealing. I came to the realisation that it is only because you get more bang for your buck in rural France than in the UK. But, I love the British Isles. Not the governments or the towns or cities or the people indigenous or alien, but what exists outside of
  14. Are we counting Facebook friends?
  15. Probably getting a better start growing up on the banks of the St. John's River than the Wear or the Tyne. Congratulations.
  16. After re-watching SAS Rouge Heroes had a look to see if the soundtrack is on Spotify, and it is. A great driving playlist with some of the best British rock tracks of all time with a few WTF? for passengers. Noel Coward between Motorhead and Sham '69, Arthur Askey and Vera Lyn together with Stiff Little Fingers and AC/DC. For those of a certain age.
  17. My two penneth, something said to me and my sisters by a brother-in-law under slightly different circumstances "is this what your mam and dad would have wanted you to be doing? "
  18. Banter. I have always struggled to tie down exactly why I find "banter" so annoying. And what is banter? Trying to watch LFC v ATM and listening to the commentary of "Fletch" and McCoist it has just dawned on me, banter is what happens when people have no craic.
  19. I used to own rare vintage bottle that I kept for years, to open on a special occasion. Looked for it when Newcastle won the League Cup but turns out someone had thrown it out years ago on account of it being 20+ years past its best before date. N.B. turn head to left to view pictures.
  20. That's good to know Jossa. I remember at one of the few meetings that I attended at Shotley Bridge club as a relatively young clueless fukwit, as apposed to now being a relatively old clueless fukwit, and Mr.Winch announcing that the RSPCA had returned the club's cheque. A donation was given to them annually from the club. Reason being, they can longer be associated with any organisation that is involved with the use of hunting with dogs. It seemed ridiculous at the time. Little did we know that times were a changing.
  21. Great start for Nick Woltemade at Newcastle. Played his first game, scored his first goal, won the game. I have heard that Virgil Van Dijk has already been on phone to him.
  22. Handle with care... seriously, there's some serious voodoo bad shit that they put in that stuff that can a turn a good man bad, seen it happen
  23. I commented on the display of Union Flags last week on route to visiting the parents. Well, it's that day again and the flags are still there. It just looks so so strange. The last time that I seen such a display was shortly after the UK left the EU and I needed a dog passport to travel to Republic of Ireland with a dog. Did not have a passport so just drove over via NI. The sat nav took me to Carrickfurgus, resplendent in red, white, and blue. Nice people and pointed me in the direction of Carrick-on-Shannon. These flags, the ones in my pictures taken today, they're all at half mast an
  24. Are you sure? Sounds more like the KC stuff.
