    I wonder if that's the same Irish lad I met some years ago ? He was breeding Saluki/Greyhound/Borzois. He had three 18 month old dogs with him. Very nice looking dogs and he said they did daytime hares and offered me one for £300 with a trial. I was tempted but had two running dogs at the time so passed on it. Cheers.

    Are you old enough to remember when the census papers were sent out years ago, and it asked your religion ? Thousands of us put "Jedi", I may be wrong, but they had to accept it, then people started saying "pagan", "anamist", "Druid", etc. Off topic a bit, but I thought it was funny.......a mans religion should be his to disclose or not. ? Cheers.

    Pedantic, I know, but he has never had American citizenship or passport. He had a Green Card, which gave him permanent residence, which he gave up last year. Not that I have any support for Sunak, but you know me.....a stickler for accuracy! ?? Cheers.

    The truth is starting to emerge as to why Suella Braverman was sacked/resigned as Home Secretary; She evidently sent a classified email, using her own, unsecured email account, to another MP. She also inadvertently copied the email to the MP's wife. If that wasn't enough, she mistakenly forwarded the email to a parliamentary staffer ! All of which is illegal and contravenes the ministerial code, as well as being extremely stupid ! The contents of the email ? ........CYBER SECURITY ! Six days after being sacked/resigning , she's back in Cabinet as, yes you've gues

    Now, I'm not looking for an argument, and as I don't believe in god and couldn't care less what colour Jesus. But how can you say Jesus wouldn't be white ? He was certainly Semitic, Jewish, and in the three racial categories; Caucasian, Negroid and Mongoloid, Semitics are classed in the Caucasian group, so, I'd guess he was more likely to be "white", albeit with an olive hue, than "black" or "yellow" ? Cheers.

    I rented an xr2i years ago, to go and stay at a mates hotel in Great Yarmouth for a darts competition. When I returned it they said good job you took out the extra insurance. I asked why ? Some f****r had the spot lights off the front when it was in the hotel car park and I didnt even notice ! ? ! Just hope it was a lamper ! Cheers.

    I'm no Sunak supporter, but I've just watched PMQ's and I thought he did well. He beat off Starmer easily, even though Starmer went down the "politics of envy" route by asking about rich people and non-Dom status. I don't trust any of them, from any party, but I guess I have to at least give Sunak a while to see what he comes up with. Cheers.

    Me and the missus have recently had legal advise about this and other things, as we would like to leave everything to our grandson. P.O.A. Over health care just means if a doctor, working for the government decides I need to go into a home, my wife can refuse, and keep me at home, otherwise they could put me in a home against her objections, It also give the POA control of bank accounts. To have full control,over everything there needs to be a trust set up, they quoted me £7,000 to do this. We had two wills made and a seperate trust fund for our grandson, this cost £250, f

    chartpolski replied to Borr's topic in General Talk

    Doesn't work that way mate ! The care home took control, through the government, of my mums pension and bank account. She had about £10 k in the bank, they had control of the lot. If there's anything left over, it will have to go through probate, and my sister, who's taking care of things, has been told it will cost at least £1500 solicitor fees.. My mum was a cantankerous old woman, and a lot of this could have been avoided if she had signed everything over to my sister before they declared her mentally unfit to make those decisions. Cheers.

    My old mum died a couple of days ago, aged 92. She used to tell me never get in debt for anything. If you can't afford it, you don't need it, or save up for it and pay cash. By the time you've saved up for something, you'll probably find you don't want or need it anyway. Her and dad bought their council house years ago fo £13.5 k, they payed cash, almost their entire life's savings, they refused to "have a mortgage hanging round their necks" ! Offered to buy it for them but they said it wouldn't feel right. They wanted something to leave the four kids, but sadly the government made h

    As I keep saying: "conspiracy = more than one person conspiring to commit a crime". Cheers.

    I've supported Farage for years. ? As for conspiracies, you don't seem to understand that there are conspiracies going on all the time, and the vast majority of people understand that, and what "conspiracy" means........they just don't see EVERYTHING as a conspiracy! ? I believe, along with the Warren Commission, that the JFK assassination was a conspiracy, in that more than one person conspired to break the law., the definition of "conspiracy". Cheers.

    I wouldn't hazard a guess mate, but you said you thought a missile couldn't be launched without a "lock on", I simply answered you saying they can ? Cheers.
  23. chartpolski
    "Lock On After Launch" (LOAL). A pilot can launch a missile then lock on once the missile is in the air. He doesn't have to lock on to a target. Cheers.
  24. chartpolski
    Yes they can....it's known in the old naval parlance as "a shot across the bows" ? Cheers.
  25. chartpolski
    Two Russian fighters fired a missile "in the vicinity of" a British RC 135 spy plane. Im sure the missile wasn't "locked on" or we would have a downed spy plane. More likely a warning or testing our reaction and defences ? Cheers.
