I know the feeling My missus insists on reminding me that I’m 73, not 23 ! Usually when I tell her I’m going lamping with my p***y pal, or when I’m going coursing with my pal who is literally a third of my age, or when I say I’m going for a drink with my nephew and his ultra pals before a match ! She never mentions it when she tells me to get in the loft to fix a dripping ball valve, or go up two storeys on a ladder to clean the gutters. And she doesn’t see the joke when I say we’ve been married almost 50 years and even the train robbers and murderers didn’t get that long

Burj Al Arab in Dubai hit by missile and on fire . I had dinner in there some years ago with my daughter, the only seven star hotel in the world. Cheers.

They are on the east coast of Saudi, they should be safe. The British Embassy has contingency plans to evacuate in the worst case scenario. Thanks for your concern, I appreciate it Cheers.

Getting very serious now, DBX has just been hit. My family would have been flying JED-DBX-NCL if they hadn’t cancelled. Cheers.

Don’t blame Pickford, blame Newcastle! Im a supporter, and don’t know what’s going wrong , but it’s obvious that Wissa and Waldermat are very VERY poor and very VERY expensive replacements for Isak and Wilson, and Elanga isn’t as good as Murphy! A disastrous transfer window. We are missing Bruno and Livremento, but that’s no excuse. Forget European football next season unless a miracle happens and we win the FA Cup or the Champions League ! Cheers.

That’s crap money ! I was getting that almost 50 years ago as a specialist / instructor working for the Royal Saudi Airforce at their Air Defence Centre, and I had absolutely no worries about Boris blowing my head off Cheers.

Yes mate. It’s in as new nick. All I’ve done is clean and oil it and fit a new breach seal. My p***y mate zeroed the ‘scope in and I’m getting head shots on rats at about 30’. It’s a bit of sport and keeps the rats down. Cheers.

I worry about them, Iran has just hit Riyadh, but my family are in Jeddah, but they live within sight of one of the biggest air bases in the Middle East. I lived out there for 26 years and was there for both Gulf Wars and worked on that base, but to be honest never really felt in danger, but who knows, if it escalates? Cheers,

Who’s surprised ? The US has been building up assets in the area for months . Once the two carrier groups were in place it was obvious it would start. My daughter in law and grandson were due to come here for the school holidays but have just cancelled as civilian air space is being closed all across the Middle East. Cheers.

To paraphrase Monty Pythons; “ Is he dead ?”……”well, he was coughing up blood last night !”. Cheers. -
Reform were the only “right of centre “ party on the ballot. I don’t class the Tories as right of centre , but they only got 1 1/2% of the vote. I’m assuming Tory voters moved en masse to Reform, Advance got less votes than the Raving Loony Party, so I’m guessing any right wing voter who was thinking of voting for Habibs party had second thoughts and voted Reform. Reform doubled their vote from 18 months ago. So, far from splitting the right vote, they actually United it. I understand you hate Farage and Reform, but what was the alternative ? Id rather vote for a p

Wilf, 47% turnout is huge for a by election. It’s the same turnout they had for the general election. Cheers.

Again , how did Reform split the vote ? They didn’t, as I said in my previous post. Cheers.

How are Reform splitting the vote ? The Tories lost their deposit, getting only around 1 1/2% of the votes . Even if every Tory voter had voted Reform, it still wouldn’t have been enough. Advance were absolutely dismal, getting only around 150 votes. Reform doubled their vote from the 2024 election, meaning, in my mind, they United the right vote. They were beaten because Gorton is 46% Muslim and Denton is 6% Muslim and they voted as a block with other left wing Gaza supporters . No, Reform didn’t split the vote, they were beaten by a left wing party in a constituency that
