    Didn't check out the footage ,guess it was mainly chimps ? 

    Saw it on the news, out of hundreds saw one white arm? From the size of some of them wouldn't say they were starving! They needed charging by horses, water cannon and the dogs sent in, would never happen though.

    You saying about guys who aint big names.Ive got a pal who started DJing in the 80s who was part of a group that included Colin Dale,Colin Favour,Eddie Richards etc.Around 1990 he came down to kent from Croydon to play at one of our parties and ended up getting a bird up the spout.Whilst the others went on to be well known professional Djs he stayed down her and became a painter and decorator and just Djd and and produced stuff as a hobby..Ive seen him so many times outplay big name DJ's and take parties that are pretty dead and within 3 or 4 tracks have everyone up having it with people dancing on tables.He has such a skill at reading a crowd and knowing what they want.Ive even seen a very well known DJ  not want to go on after him.

    That's some names from the past that've jogged the memory! I had a mate like your pal, he could always get a crowd going, let's just say he enjoyed the more social aspects of the scene! He started off in pubs clubs etc with the old double deck setup and talking over the records, I can remember him saying to me "I was a Dj when it meant you were a bit of a prick" He can';t half mix though.

    My mole munching mate had. He had some still in the freezer and often enough mentioned that I should sample it. Only trouble was; It must have been in there about six fukking years, by then. I could never quite fancy it therefore.

    Had a swan hit the wires, here, some years back. I stuck it in the freezer and canvassed several local taxidermists, to see anyone could use it. One bloke summed it up: " In thirty five years at this game, one thing I've never been asked for is a stuffed swan. "

    I took it back to the river side. Overnight it was reduced to a husk and a few feathers. Wish I'd had the fukking trail cam then!

    There was a taxidermist, back in the day, who notoriously ate the body of everything he mounted. Forget his name now. But, I had a Grey Phalarope by him. Wonder what That tasted like?

     

    Apparently they used to eat the young ones fattened on barley , the old ones being too tough. Used to be served with the neck and wings as decoration, might try this with the chicken on Sunday!

    I cringe when I think about the classics I got rid of.fiat 131 miraflores twin cam sport,mk11 escort Mexico,rs 2000,loads of mini pick ups,toyota crowns,landy pick ups,imps,BMW 2002,old jags,etc etc,etc.got a few classics in the garage  now so still can drive a few old runners.

    Nice selection there, the fiat 131 would probably be dust by now, haven't seen one on the road for ages, my uncle had an orange one and his mate the grey one, used to love those things!

    i always think these driven dogs dont belong and should never be in the hands of ordinary folk like myself or others,i looked into the purchase of this breed before i got the spastic shepherd ,and i went to a trainers home ,where he ''introduced'' me to his dogs,and i saw them and what they were capable of and thought ,fuk that!!!too much drive and dog for my needs,i struggle to get out enough at the present time with work ,and imagine one of these bored out of their tits ,theyd implode/explode or just basically maul the shite out of someone

    Couldn't agree more. Frightening thing is that youngsters around me are starting to get these dogs, don't know from which lines tho. Was talking to a kid with a dutch shepherd pup, he seemed sensible and was training it and it seemed a well mannered little thing. Saw another group of kids with a malinois, looked a year old or so, the thing was pulling, lunging and the kid holding the lead had no control over it, looked like a ticking timebomb to me.

    ok thanks mate , what  do you think of the dutch Shepard   compare to the bel mal , ? five only ever seen 1 dutch bitch, and it was nice animal, good guard, nice temp , agile fit dog . think few lines got apbt in them from what i read on the net .. a bloke i know who used help the police pick  pups and help train few cop dogs, had couple bel mals , had big strong male 70 odd lb , very switched on type dog, but he loved well bred gsds as well , think they out crossed few mals to gsd

    Here's a dutch shepherd pit mix for you

    I've never seen that ad before mate lol

    I first came across it in 1992.

    Not many pubs had it on tap back then. 

    That tune has been stuck in my head for years! From the 80's!!

    The Olympian that got stopped ,I just dont get it,in my area ,coursing a problem ,old bill dont pull over a mini cooper with some blonde hairdresser driving it ,they tug a white transit ,if it so happens theirs only a Barrow, mixer in the back and it's a builder on hes way to work, he is not being victimised, he just happens to fit the criteria of the criminal they are after ,so sorry black guy 20 to 30 driving a half decent  car  you do fit the bill ,for stabbings ,dealing  ect ect ,have a word with your community, they are bringing it on you ,no one else ! 

    When we got stopped as kids the coppers treated us like shit, you just accepted it as the way things were, they were coppers we weren't. After a while you learn if your mouthy and get all hyped up, they keep you for longer, then you learn to play the game, know your rights, stick up for yourself in an intelligent way, and your on your way. I remember seeing a black fella stopped in Trafalgar square in his Lotus Carlton, this must have happened a lot as he calmly got out his documents and was soon on his way. Now whenever I see a black person stopped it goes from 0 to 100 in seconds, no wonder the old bill can't win. Saw a bunch of coppers and black schoolkids last year, if we would have talked to them and had their attitude like these kids have we would have been taken round the corner for a kicking!

    I think when you look at these old images it’s easy to see why some say the Apbt is the original Bulldog and why some still refer to it as the Bulldog.All the dogs have a descent bit of muzzle,the stuff with with the nose pushed back was the beginning of the show stuff that goes all the way to the the modern British bulldog.Also as we all know most breeds who’s muzzle has been dramatically shortened can’t get round the block let alone have the wind to bring a bull down,so I go with modern gamebred types being the original bulldog,the squashed muzzle bulldog being a show offshoot.

    Indian sonny wrote a good piece on the Colby dogs a fair few years back now. Basically he states the breeders were so intent on keeping the line "pure" that the performance side of things suffered terribly. See if someone can find the article, tis an interesting read...

    Don't know if this is the right article, but what is says rings true for any line of dogs and the work they do.

    Great clip.i still have dreams about the racing days.i cant describe the feeling of bieng out on the bangers.more addictive than minge

    Used to love the banger car races when I was a kid at Harringay stadium, big old lumps like Austin Cambrige's with scaffolding bars for roll cages. if we were lucking at the end they'd have a roll over competition, just to have a bit more destruction!

    There will be f**k all wrong with him. 

    All he has to prove is that he is “incapable” of under standing certain words used and their implications in the caution process and he’s away Scot free  . 

    He will never face criminal proceedings, rather some vague semi effective social order  . 

    amazing what can be delivered if you know how to work the system to your advantage   

    Apparently he's a public schoolboy, went to Cambridge and was in the foreign office, wonder if mummy helped him get that job?

    She likes the right kind of rough...a technique called super cropping is based on this. 

    Just looked that up, went from super cropping to topping then fimming, hit the r instead of the f when looking it up, better clear my search history!

    They thrive on a cycle of flood and drain. 

     

    That's why the plant's called weed!!! Remember reading in a book years ago that the Mexicans would stick nails through the stem to give the plant some extra stress!

    The Mrs has shown me how to make a very effective facemask out of a single piece of kitchen roll,  two lastic bands to hook round your earsĺ, a bit of glue and a couple of paper staples.  It's very blue Peter but cheap, simple and effective. all it is, is a sort of pleated arrangement similar to a fan.  She is clever as well as performing well under load.do you follow.?  Facemasks are quite ineffective against viruses though.


    She's taking advantage of the situation, it'll be a bag over your head next!
