That's a blast from the past mate - I remember throwing that up out of my nose when I was 14

I bet that strange smell is in the air just before a storm mate..a weird but nice smell...

Also cruised by these two places the other night. Thought the first was a mosque at first but one of the other guy said he thinks is a little theme park And think I did a half decent job shining the boats bell. Apparently I had just zoned out and was polishing it for two hours ? the mate said he thought I was dead because he didn't hear a peep out of me the whole time ? And yesterday was Friday which means fish day so the mate cooke dup some shrimp and crawfish etouffee and it was great ? he added cream of mushroom to his with made it much lighter then when I'm used to bu

Got some short ribs ticking over

Got a new office and lovely as it is I’d still go back to a mk5 smiley tomorrow fancy a 7.5 ton Iveco truck next but that can wait for a couple of months when I finally pack in work

I honestly remember as a kid scraping the bottom of the frying pan out with a bit of bread because we had no butter,life’s ups and downs,my kids laugh and roll their eyes when I tell them about going to bed at times hungry.

Was looking for something else and found this gem in my album

Tbh even though I supported the strike a 100pct and stuck it out till the bitter end I lived about 7 miles away from the pit I worked at so did not get the help from the food kitchens sett up in mining villages and I only went picketing a few times it put me off idiots smashing and turning car's over one night picketing Dinnington pit. I spent the winter of the strike poaching anything edible and saleable to look after my family.

My office for the week

I think they fear a job interview more than the rape charges

Get on the frosty jack mate

Nailed a whole bottle of whiskey to myself last night, absolutely hanging today

......and yet we are constantly being told how hard we have it now. Hard times build hard men. Hard men build good times. Good times produce soft men.

I know that going to bed hungry feeling all too well . I reckon that's why I'm a fat feck now . I eat any food at any time , because it still feels like you don't know when you'll get your next meal. My kids also can't comprehend that. Their was never enough food to go around. You had to wear second hand clothes. I didn't have a bed , and I slept on a sofa under old army blankets. Gas and electricity could be cut off , and you'd sit in the house with candles ( that weren't scented). Any parent/teacher/adult , could give you a beating ,just because they felt like i

Nothing interesting for me - I'm waiting for my Last train and, it's a big 'un.... lots of wagons and 4 locos that need splitting and sorting for early Monday morning. There is a cold Henry Westons waiting for me in the fridge at home though

Met er indoors in town,had a bite to eat in the sun,scorching day,even the deer were in the shade.

Oh yes google mate..of course…even minter

Did the second shed this evening .Warm start but cooled off nicely as the action heated up .All dogs worked well ,no fights of any consequence .My old girl was a pillar of restraint with the Russell’s that she usually hates lol.Finished on 248 which was a bit shy of my prediction of 300.Still decent bag though .Had couple Bedlingtons along tonight which worked like trogons .Few water breaks in which my two insisted on getting in the bowl Young bitch still a bit sore from the other night I think . Bite on bitches eye looked worse than it is .All washed off and she’s fine .

Had a forum member down for a stalk last eve .Too much grass cut for my liking tbh honest but we pressed on until I found the right field for a wait .I know this ground like the back of my hand .If they ain’t out when the shadows are longest it’s time for a stalk before dark . A muntie buck with a huge pair of in velvet antlers came our way but disappeared in the hedge before a shot could be lined up.Grass here is still uncut mind . As the shadows lengthened we wandered on a bit to the next field and sure enough there was a doe and yearly pricket out in the grass picking at seeds .Ne

Protest in Swindon tomorrow. Outside the wyvern theatre.

Good. Folk around here are generally a quiet bunch but, they will react to anything that they think is not right. The head teacher at a local primary school wanted to have unisex toilets for the kids. The parents weren't going to let her get the thin edge of her weird wedge in at all - she couldn't show her face in the playground at drop off and picking up time in the end.

Moochers was destroyed by one man. He had been banned from moochers and most other sites, but Carreg allowed him back on. Lots of members who actually did a bit and added to the site left because of him. Cheers.

You need a good dose of covid Tim, I haven't smelt anything for two years, the only smell sensation I get even with the worst of smells is garlic ! I could be stood next to a rotting corpse and all I'd get was garlic, still in the habit of sticking me head in random holes to smell for fox though ?

And I can remember when all this was just fields ?.

Never been mate they reckon it's a good day out when I worked at the pit they used to put coaches on for lads and their families for this event that was just a glorious piss up for some of the lad's. I remember two mates coming back from the event sporting black eyes as they had ended up in a club near the event and jumped on stage and did a moonie that the regulars didn't find funny. Lol

Unworkable and worked out pits that a lot were dangerous though anyone that wanted to work in the industry job's were still available though it ment a lot of miners upping sticks and moving to different parts of the country. The pit I worked at a lot of Scottish lad's moved to the pit village and settled in S.Yorks.

Scargill had a mandate to strike without voting for it as it had already been voted on by NUM members, dirty scummy scabby bast@rds from the Notts area broke away from the NUM, started a break away union the UDM and worked thru the strike, Scargill was far far from perfect but he was 100% right about the pit closures, one of the happiest days of my life when they closed the Notts pits

There's a Durham Miners Gala every year in July. It's a celebration of working class community,solidarity and internationalism. 200000 people generally attend. All the old pit villages still parade their banners. Miners who stuck it out and miners who were beaten up and fitted up by the police at Orgreave are feted as heroes. I find it really moving. But I know a lot on here will laugh and sneer at that.

Internet is the most catastrophic thing to ever hit humanity

Ironic the only one wearing a skirt in the women's bogs is a fella
