Reported for cultural appropriation ! Cheers.

I was never a hoarder, far from it; “everything has a place and everything in its place” was my credo ! Then I got two big allotments and now nothing gets thrown out ! Everything goes “down the allotment”. Ive become an accidental re-cycler! Coffee jars , milk containers etc find a use. Old pots and pans become poultry feeders, old duvets, blankets become plant fleeces in the poly tunnels, every gets taken their, “just in case I need it “ Cheers.

I’m sure Howe won’t be sacked but he is an honourable, honest man and he seems really depressed at recent results and performances. I hope he doesn’t think he’s taken the team as far as he can and resigns ! It was only a week or so ago we went to Paris and played a draw with PSG but we’ve got some very difficult games coming up. If we can get a result at Spurs, and let’s face it, they are in a worse position than us, and can get past Qarabag, (who ?), in the Champions League, the mood in Toon will improve Cheers.

Almost 100% but none of them live on the islands, we kicked them of when we let the Americans use Diego Garcia. The Chagos islanders now mainly live in Mauritius and Crawley, but almost none of them were born on Chagos but would like to live on their ancestral lands. Mauritius and Starmer are using UN rulings to take over/give away the islands, but with delicious irony, the UN has now said the islanders human rights and wishes should be taken into consideration, Leaving the human rights lawyer Starmer with an almost impossible dilemma; give the Chagos islands to Mauritius and trample o

From what I understand Mauritius and the Chagos Islands were part of the UK’s British Indian Ocean Territories. They were separate countries but administered by the same Foreign Office department. Mauritius gained independence from the UK during our “retreat from east of Suez” in 1968, but we kept the Chagos islands. Mauritius NEVER owned them or had a claim to them but in recent years decided to ask the International Court of Justice to rule on who owned them The court gave a NON - BINDING judgement that the Uk should negotiate with Mauritius about handing them over.

With due respect mate, your dogs are NOT “double muscled” They are well muscled and conditioned and a credit to you, but , “double muscled” is a genetic abnormality found in whippets. There are technical and scientific names for it. It’s got nothing to do with exercise or work or training. As I said, I had a whippet that had true “double muscle” and it was very evident just looking at it. It cramped up badly after just one 150 yard run and I had it put down. Cheers.

That’s enough from you Fletcher Cheers.

I just smile indulgently at the japes of the youngsters . I look upon them as prodigal sons, wayward waifs, truculent youth. I live in hope that a mere morsel of my patient attempts to educate them helps them on their journey through life . Cheers.

I once put a post up on here called “are pures really pure” ; where I traced the ancestry of a deer/grey I owned all the way back. On the deerhound side it had Anastasia Nobles greyhound outcross, and on the greyhound side it had Orfords Bulldog outcross and even further back it had “rough haired Scottish greyhound”. So I guess pures arent REALLY pure if you go back far enough Cheers.

Alas, fleetingly, we moved in opposite strata’s of society Cheers.

The “Lord Orford” legacy ? Cheers.
