  1. Well, someone had to do it !?! Going by the replies on here, the average age is 47.76 ! ? Cheers.
  2. Don't know much about it other than encouraging people to cancel their gas and electric direct debits. Problem is, there was a bloke on Sky News this morning saying if they do that, they will have their services cut off and then be charged to have them reinstated, and, as they will be classed as bad debtors, they will be put on the highest tariff and maybe even a pre-paid meter. Cheers.
  3. Ray was 70 last week. Still fit and agile, just like Buck ! A good man, still at it ? Cheers.
  4. "Once we were heroes, Once we defended our wives and children. Twice when the barbarian was knocking on the door we fought them and defeated them. Now, the barbarian isn't rebuffed, they are picked up mid channel and brought and treated better than our own ! The older generation are angry, their spirt may be strong, but their bodies are weak , will the younger generation rally to the cause as their dads and grandfathers did ? I doubt it, but if they do, it's not the barbarians that we need to defeat.....Its the traitorous politicians that need defeating ! " Cheer
  5. "Mansplaining" at its best ! ?? ! The feminists must love you ! ? ! Cheers.
  6. Women playing football ? We'll be letting them int Working Men's Clubs next ! Cheers.
  7. All the hi tech gear in the helicopters, aircraft, etc was destroyed, rendering them inoperable. We did the same after the gulf wars, but loads of lo- tech equipment was left operable. I saw lines of land rovers with just delivery mileage, left in parking lots where they had been off loaded. Some of my pals ended up with a few. The reasoning was it was cheaper to leave them there than take them home. Cheers.
  8. 70, and as pert as a rutting buck ? Cant wait for the season to start and getting some serious work into the young dog ? Cheers.
  9. I never mentioned getting on the property ladder ? Im talking about living within our means. I agree it's extremely difficult to get onto the property ladder, but I know plenty of 30-40 year olds, including relatives, who have maxed out credit cards, overdrafts, up to their eyes in debt, just to have the latest iPhone and a new leased motor. Their priorities seem to be live for today, "keep up with the Jones's ". My priority would be to live within my means and save up the deposit for a mortgage. But each to their own.....I choose my path, it may not be the path others
  10. 40 years ago we didn't have £50 a month mobile phone contracts. We didn't have Amazon Prime, Netflix, Apple, Sky monthly contracts. We didn't have a new car every two years on lease. We cooked our own dinners, we didn't have them delivered by Just Eat. We would get a bus, not an Uber. Absolutely nothing wrong with any of the above, but if you are going to live above your means, don't blame the government.........blame yourself. Does anyone take personal responsibility anymore ? Cheers.
  11. I'm certainly no supporter of taxes, but I consider them a necessary evil. Forget benefits for a moment, what about the armed forces, the NHS, education, the police, fire services, ambulance services, old age pensions, roads and infrastructure, etc ? All paid out of taxation. The lower the taxation, the less we can spend on all of the above. Of course vast amounts of money is wasted, just take the millions we spend each day on illegal immigrants, then the almost $20 BILLION we give away on overseas aid each year, all taken from the tax pot ! I hate to sound like a politicia
  12. Most food is zero rated for v.a.t. Household gas and electric is rated at 5% v.a.t., and this is because the EU imposed it upon us. Boris said he would remove the 5% v.a.t. on gas and electricity when we left the EU........sadly just another broken promise by a politician ? Cheers.
  13. I thought it was all part of the "Net Zero" plan ? Keep petrol, diesel, gas, electric prices artificially high so we wean ourselves off them and reduce the carbon emissions. In 2008, Oil was $130 a barrel, petrol was under £1 a litre, now oil is $90 a barrel and petrol is almost £2 a litre. Go figure ! Cheers.
  14. So he's blatantly telling Welsh farmers that he puts Bangladesh taxi drivers before them........ Yet Wales voted the f****r into power ? Dear God......... Cheers.
  15. The lads family have appealed to the ECHR, but they have said they can't interfere in British law. Strange......didnt the lefty lawyers find an out of hours European Court Judge who over ruled British law to stop the plane load of illegal immigrants taking off ? Cheers.
  16. The guys a "Shock Jock" , simple as that. He makes his money by making outrageous statements and accusations, but I don't agree with fining a man £40 million just for talking shite ! After all, most of us do that on a daily basis on here ! ?? ! Cheers.
  17. You have to ask why there wasn't one policeman who said " hold on ! This is absolute bollocks, sending six policemen to arrest an old soldier for re-tweeting an image that is only offensive to a tiny minority of people, who are constantly offended at everything ?". And what the f**k is a "non-crime hate offence" ? It sounds like something out of Orwell's 1984 or something by Kafka ! Cheers.
  18. Me and the missus were talking about this recently, why there was so little information of what happened to the poor lad. Evidently it seems it was some sort of tik tok challenge where they tighten a ligature around their necks until they pass out, which went terribly wrong. Cheers.
  19. Just watch GBNews, simple ? Cheers.
  20. f****n' great ! ? ! Cheers.
  21. Seen a lot of first cross non-ped whippet x greyhounds over the years, and owned a few line bred. Insanely fast and easily capable of taking daytime hare, downside is they break easily and most lack the stamina for more than a couple of decent runs. Upside is youll not get better for the exciting runs. Cheers.
  22. It took you some time to come up with that one ! ? Northwoods was a proposal that was instantly vetoed by Kennedy. one of the high ups in the American government said it would be impossible to keep something like that a secret........but you believe the Americans faked six moon landings , and not one of the literally millions of people involved blew the whistle, and everyone involved has kept quiet all these years ! ? Cheers.
  23. Pelosi is now in Taiwan. Escorted in by 8 F15's and 5 refuelling tankers. No in flight incidents, but the Chinese aren't too happy ! Cheers.
