My daughter has decided after 6 months of mortgage that it’s a massive scam and is selling her house and wants me to build her a tiny home on my place (she has also aimed out the boyfriend as well which is a bonus ! Lol ) So for any lads that may be interested, I’ve made a start and here is a few photos. Ill post a few more as we go along The base is an old 2 berth caravan that we stripped down and tipped, I’ve then had a local old boy weld me up a 6m long frame to fix on the top of the caravan chassis, the chassis are approx 1300mm wide. All strong box tube, we wi23 points

A mate of mine sent me a class photo I hadn't seen for 50 years. I think it was a passing out ceremony for something to do with the Catholic Church. A lot of the lads on the photo are dead, did jail time or had horrible lives.The lad on the left was a brilliant footballer and scrapper. He had a spell as a pro boxer. The church bought us football boots and shirts. And the teacher told us how to play. In my case, Mark, Tackle .Head Pass. Nothing else. Lol. The priest used to come and give us pep talks. " You are representing your school, your religion etc. We used to go out fired up. I was wel9 points

I believe in random events influencing lives. We are just pinballs bouncing off corners. Something happens along the way which dictate or change your whole life. Often you can be enjoying life and then an event happens, maybe a personal tragedy, which changes how you view your life. It's chaos. You can plan all you want, but random events have more influence on your life than a million life plans imo. The biggest equaliser is your health. If you lose that you lose everything. If you're lucky with your partner and your health, it's as good as winning the lottery. A guy once told me8 points

It will be Alexa next. My brother in law has worked on computers since their inception and won't have one in the house.He's not particularly conspiratorial in his mindset either. I've just come off the phone to BT. They are changing my landline to Digital and wanted my permission to monitor all my digital activity " to improve the service". I declined. Orwell underestimated Big Brother's potential.7 points

I’ve got two brothers, one older, one younger and they have never been out of the UK , never had a passport, in fact I don’t think either have been on holiday even in the UK ! But they are happy with their lot. I worked with people abroad who spent every leave back home, even though they could have flown anywhere in the world for free. I took the opportunity to go everywhere I’d ever dreamed of, ticked things of my bucket list; the Alamo, the scene of JFK’’s assassination, the pyramids, bridge on the river Kwai, Ayers Rock, Lawrence’s railway and , of course, to indulge in my passion7 points

As 'el elano Espanol ' so eloquently put it no lol. The wife used to speak Spanish and German and obviously Romanian and English. My kids were around it young and know lots of words so I'm sure the lingo part of the brain developed and they'll learn languages, I worked in UK most of the time we were based in Romania, I came close to learning french but without learning the language properly and being able to converse in past tense my conversation skill were not up to par plus they spoke nasal patois french which added an element to it. I may have another go at some point. The wife's father is5 points

Too much GB news there mate. Money rules. There's no real left in this country. Not even a Labour party. No real representation of ordinary Joe. There's a bunch of liberal, pinko, hypocrites who like to sound 'right on' and pious, but when push comes to shove, they shaft ordinary folk. Starmer is portrayed as a dangerous leftie. My arse! He's a bootlicking, money grubbing,treacherous establishment man. We are on our own. We are just nuisances, especially pensioners. We have outlived our usefulness and cost too much in state pension benefits and NHS use.4 points

Yes mate, it’s nice to be at something that’s interesting. Been retired 9 years now so it’s a novelty doing a bit of graft…..not sure my joints agree, they are like “hold on ! What the f**k is going on here again?” Lol3 points

If only I were closer as they say, I'd give you a hand..strictly labouring. Useless as a handyman. I like messing about with projects like that though. A bloke up the road from me bought a dilapidated cottage. He had no skills, just learned them as he went along. I give him a hand a few hours a week. I enjoy watching it take shape. Amazing what you can do with a bit of sweat and determination.3 points

Well some little bits arrived from that temu. Brilliant little site that temu for fishing gear. We all know most things now are made in China. All the top Angling company's will have stuff made over there for the cheap labour. These little rat / mice surface lures are mint. And I'm pleased with the look of the other lures too. A don't even think there's a tenner here that I've spent. If I'd of bought these from local Angling shop I'd of been looking at easy 20 quid 4 quid an 5 quid here an there.3 points

In Arthur's case yes, Americans would confuse a Geordie accent with an Irish accent. I have have been assumed to be Irish, Welsh, Australian and "incoherently drunk" in other English speaking countries. That's just the way I speak. Oh, and stupid, but that's just in England2 points

Personally i think theres a lot to be said for kids growing up in a City like London.....we talk like its gone downhill but it was always a shithole but its a shithole that teaches you a lot about yourself and about life in general,it puts you into situations where you find out if you can depend on yourself....stick a kid raised in rural Berkshire onto a rough London council estate and he wont be street savvy enough to cope whereas the council kid into a rural area will probably flourish.....my belief is that id rather have certain life skills even if i no longer need them....than need them an2 points

Way off topic but the Chindits always strike a note with me. An old chap that I became friends with, Arthur "Mick" Casey. He was one of them. I wrote about him on here a few years ago but got shot down as I referenced USA WW11 special forces, apparently the USA special forces had no involvement in Burma? Long story short an old chap used walk his Jack Russell on land where we had our gardens and there was still a few rabbits and hares etc. Everyone tried to avoid him because he could talk the hind legs off. Always about the land we were on, he lived there before it became a council estate2 points

Was just talking to a man on site today about the very thing if I was starting out young again or single it would be a small bit of field or woodlands and one of those on it mate it's the way to go at the minute with the way things are. Look forward to see the process2 points

They are too cold and too flimsy mate, this job will be 100mm insulation in walls, floor, roof. 100mm stud walls Sheathed in 18mm OSB, floors are 7 x 1 1/2 again with OSB laid on top, roof the same. Wrapped with breathable membrane and then clad in powder coat black corrugated steel……so it will be a proper all weather all year round home. Still thinking about inside but I’m guessing it will be a timber clad scandi type job, she wants a Belfast sink and all that caper……statics are only about 40mm walls with polystyrene insulation, take some keeping warm in winter mate.

And it isn’t just the case of the pagers exploding, Hezbollah will now look at all their phones, computers, electronic devices in a different way now, plus they will wonder who in their organisation is complicit in this ! I wouldn’t like to be the bloke who bought all the pagers ! Cheers.2 points

It was on every front page here Mack. The BBC Director General says he cannot see a way back for him at the BBC. I don't think he gets it. "No room here for paedos of any kind " would have been more like it, but perhaps not accurate.2 points

You’ve got it the wrong way round mate, the “Establishment “ are the lefties, the politicians, the civil service, the MSN, the heads of the military, the NHS, the Bank Of England , the heads of the police, heads of the University’s, all Common Purpose indoctrinated in the ways of the left Cheers.2 points

Mate, . .youre the born wanderer. You must have travelled more miles than Marco Polo. You should have' Just passing through' written on your gravestone. I used to fancy myself as a nomadic gunslinger in the wild west or the 'littlest hobo'. But I read, much to my disappointment, that nomadic gunslingers didn't really exist. They were a Hollywood creation. And if I were a stray alsation, I'd probably end up in the pound and get put down.2 points
