  1. I was pals with Lee Evans, the double Olympic Champion and 400 metres world record holder. He was , alongside with Tommy Smith and John Carlos, part of the civil rights protests at the ‘68 Mexico Olympics. I had his 50th birthday party at my house. Going farther back, I was pals with Jimmy Nail when we were mods and swapped Lambretta’s for a while. My family get a few mentions in his book and tv shows Met a lot of sportsmen and celebrities, mainly because of working for an airline. Cheers.
  2. Man up , mC mate ! Remember, Covid is just a “mild cold” ! LOL ! Cheers.
  3. Totally unsuitable for the UK, but I’ve always liked the hounds, like the blue ticks, black mouth curs, coon hounds, etc. Seen one or two in Australia and the US but sadly never got to see them work. Cheers.
  4. Devilled eggs with garlic mayo and smoked paprika; Cheers.
  5. I’m neither a Tory or a closet Tory. I despise Labour, Tory and Lib Dem equally. It just amuses me that you use copy and paste articles quoting far left lunatics to justify your rather sad hatred of the Tory’s when they are all as bad as each other ! I also find it strange that if someone doesn’t support the policies of the left, they are automatically labelled a Tory . At the upcoming council elections, I’ll be voting Reform Party, if they aren’t standing a candidate, I’ll vote for an independent who’s views most fit my views . Cheers.
  6. Premier Inn ? Living la Vida loca, eh mate ! Cheers.
  7. He could be in the Hindu Kush tribal lands, Ulan Bator or Sunderland…….somewhere deprived and dangerous ! Cheets.
  8. Complete meltdown by O’Sullivan; leading 10-6, then lost seven in a row to lose 13-10 and out of the World Championship in the quarter final to Belgian Luca Bresel. Cheers.
  9. Richard Burgon, far left Labour MP, who said “ Corbyn lost the General Election because he was to conventional” , and said he would “uphold the three pillars of Corbynism if he bacame Deputy Leader of the Labour Party” ! I think he may be joining his pals Corbyn and Abbott soon if Starmer has his way in purging the far left ! Richard Burgon says Labour lost under Jeremy Corbyn because party was too 'conventional' INEWS.CO.UK Exclusive: Richard Burgon says he wants to serve in the shadow Cabinet no matter who wins the top job Cheers.
  10. My political position is somewhat to the right of Maggie, and nearer to Ghengis. The liberal left will be the perpetrators of the decline and fall of the UK. Cheers.
  11. Id say it was a result of left wing liberal policies that has seen six million illegal immigrants cross the southern border, the liberalisation of drug use, the breakdown of law and order, the lefts loathing of the white working class, the lefts support of any minority above supporting the silent majority, not corruption. Cheers.
  12. That’s what I like about this site; the threads meander more than a country stream ! Cheers.
  13. Not biting mate, just sitting here with a pitying smile on my face ……..LOL ! Cheers.
  14. Bit of home cooking; BBQ chicken, Quail egg quiche’s, Chocolate cake, white chocolate on the outside, dark chocolate inside, Cheers.
  15. Someone said recently the the US was the most corrupt place on earth. Well, they most probably haven't been to Egypt, or most places in the Middle East ! Or been to the likes of Nigeria, or most places in Africa ! Or Thailand, or most places in Asia ! Or most places in the .......Well I could go on, but I'm sure you get my drift ! ?? Cheers.
  16. Twice last century, the west made the wrong decisions; Patton wanted to defeat the Soviets at the end of WW2 when he had al the forces in theatre. MacArthur wanted to nuke the Chinese during the Korean war. Both requests blocked by politicians. Just my opinion, of course. Cheers.
  17. Saudi has ALLWAYS bought REFINED oil products, petrol, diesel, etc, from around the world, including from Russia. There’s a reason for this, Saudi exports around a quarter of the worlds crude oil, but has little or no refining capacity, so re- imports some of the refined crude oil it exports , which it uses internally and also exports. Its allways struck me as crazy, why not use some of their mega wealth to increase refining capacity ? I can’t answer that as it’s way, way above my understanding of economics and international relationships. Saudi is buying a lot more Russian refine
  18. If the left wing loonies had of got their way and Corbyn had become Prime Minister, this imbecile would have been Home Secretary! One of the four great offices of state ! A woman who is numerically illiterate and can’t even put her shoes on ! I don’t like Starmer, he’s a lying chancer, but at least he’s realised Labour can’t win with the lunatic left on board, so has started the defenestration of the lunatic left with Corbyn and Abott, now I see why that old communist McDonnell is keeping such a low profile……don’t forget, if the Corbyn supporters had got their way, McDonnell would be Chan
  19. The most inapt nick name in sport; “The Jester From Leicester “. Hes about as funny as toothache…. Cheers.
  20. As good as he’s ever played ! Cheers.
  21. He offered to employ Tomo on either a wage or “all you can eat”. Tomo accepted the latter and bankrupted Ken ! If only he had asked, I could have warned him ! Cheers.
  22. The Iranian guy tried to take the piss out of O’Sullivan by smashing the balls all over the table at the break-off, like O’Sullivan did to him at the German Open, but Ronnie is the best player ever, and it worked for him, it didn’t for Hossein and Ronnie is punishing him ! Can he win his 8th World title ? I wouldn’t bet against him …… Cheers.
  23. To be honest, even if there is the minutest threat of an event that may end my life, I’d rather we we were prepared for it ! Not much chance of avoiding a nuclear conflagration, but might be handy in event of some catastrophic weather event. Not that it would make much difference to me; I’ve got the alert turned off ! The missus will let me know if owt’s up, she usually does ! Cheers.
  24. There was someone on, surprisingly, Sky News that completely debunked the assertion that Brexit is to blame for food inflation in the UK. The UK is around mid table, and Germany has higher food inflation than the UK. Its easy to find a report to suit any narrative, far harder to find, (and for some to take), the truth ! Cheers.
