  1. Are we starting a “dead pool “ ? Cheers.
  2. This is the same as the one I got in New Zealand; I also got a jade “infinity” pendant; I was gifted this piece of jade to have a go at making something myself, but I have neither the confidence or skill to attempt it; Cheers.
  3. I tend to take a very patrician view on here; Scotty, Francie, mChull and now Mitre…..I love them all like prodigal sons ! LOL ! Cheers.
  4. He makes me smile with his Forrest Gump humour ! LOL ! Cheers.
  5. I had a jade pendant I got in New Zealand , same design. It represents the Māori myth that the South Island was brought up from the sea bed by a Māori god fishing from the North Island. Cheers.
  6. My favourite of the many stories about OZZY was when Tony Iommi advertised for singer for a band he was forming, and OZZY turned up at his door barefoot, dressed in a kaftan and had an old tap on a piece of string around his neck ! He got the job ! LOL ! Cheers.
  7. I like to think I’m one of a kind , mate ! LOL ! Cheers.
  8. Hephaestus, Greek god of metal workers, or Vulcan , Roman god of metal working. Quite apt ! Cheers.
  9. Aubergines starting to show; Sweet peppers ripening( Nice clean cabbage; Another jar of pickled onions; Cheers.
  10. I’ve never seen a blue merle saluki or greyhound……must be unique ! Cheers.
  11. Yes, I think Celtic and Rangers would be Championship level. AT THE MOMENT. I also think they wouldn’t take long to get up to the Premier, certainly not ten years. It’s all about money, mate. Celtic aren’t bringing in the money playing in Scotland, if they were in the Premier the money would go up exponentially. It seems like £100,000,000 is becoming the norm for elite players, £60/70 million for average players. Celtic simply can’t compete with that while playing in the Scottish League. A sad state of affairs, but that’s the way football is now. Cheers.
  12. I was thinking of taking as much metal away with a drill, then using a dremel to get “almost there” then needle files to finish ? Cheers.
  13. UAE; New Zealand; Missus says there’s a bag full of foreign coins somewhere. I’ll have a look tomorrow. Cheers.
  14. It’s got me looking in all the draws for foreign coins ! Im sure I’ve got a couple of Canadian loonie bird dollars and some different Arabic ones with falcons and such on ! I’m going to give it a go with the dremel ! Cheers.
  15. If I’m reading this right; these are 3/4 collie, 1/4 greyhound, or there about ? The type that Collie John who used to be on here breeds ? Cheers.
  16. Yeah, Tesla’s are for the young ‘uns ! Cheers.
  17. I don’t know too much about EV’s, but they seem to be the new addition to the “white goods” like washing machines , driers, ‘fridge freezers, with “ built-in obsolescence “ . When the battery degrades, its uneconomical to repair, so the whole car is scrapped. I’ll stick with the petrol/diesel for as long as possible, I know enough about them to just about keep them going ! LOL ! Cheers.
  18. Blame Scotty ! He’s an agent provocateur, always trying to wind me up and get a bite !! ! LOL ! Cheers.
  19. I entirely agree ! The “Champions League “ should only be for the league winners, but money rules now. Im old enough to remember, and went to all the home games, when Newcastle won the Inter City Fairs Cup” the precursor to the Europa League, and we only finished 10th that year ! Cheers.
  20. You’re after a bite but I’m sorry to disappoint you mate. Pre-season is just the amuse-bouche. The Premier is the entre’e. The Champions League is the Main Course. Cheers.
  21. I’m a fan but it doesn’t rule my life mate. A pre season kick about means nothing to me; if it gives you unbridled pleasure , good, but Newcastle will be playing in the worlds greatest league , the Premier, while Celtic will be playing in a backwater league where only they and Rangers would only be able to survive in the EFL Championship or the First Division. Im assuming that Celtic have qualified for The Champions League ? Perhaps Newcastle and Celtic may meet, that game will count, not a pre-season kick about. Enjoy the win mate. Cheers.
