  1. I've heard of him, but never seen him play. I thinks he's probably at the lower end of the top 100. I missed today's game, I was making sure I had everything done before O'Sullivans game tonight. I think that this will be Browns first major final, and good luck to him. Theres some very good players in the top 100, but the top 3,4,5, are out on their own. Cheers.
  2. That's a good question, Tomo. My daughter in law is scrupulously clean with our five year old grandson, washing his hands every five minutes. When he's here, I have him down to the allotments, eating tomatoes straight from the vine, eating blackberries, raspberries, etc. He climbs in the hen and duck houses to collect the eggs, digs in the soil, plays with the dogs I know she's not that pleased when I bring him home scruffy, he's straight in the shower and his clothes straight in the wash, but she accepts that he's getting an education he otherwise wouldn't. I think b
  3. For christs sake don't mention "disrupting DNA" ; it'll have the resident conspiracy theorists lunging for their tin foil hats ! ? ! Seriously, though, well done , and good luck going forward ! ? ! Cheers.
  4. If this was the UK the first thing the police would have done is arrest the old lad, impounded his guns and revoked his sgc. Well done to the old fella ! Cheers.
  5. I remember back in the early 80's in Saudi Arabia they were selling Lada Nivas 4x4 brand new for the equivalent of about £1,000 I wanted a cheap, robust 4x4 for going in the dessert with the Salukis so thought about buying one. When I mentioned it to my pals they recoiled in horror, you would think I'd just told them I had a virulent, highly contagious dose of pox ! They made it clear I wouldn't be going out with them, no one wanted to be asked to tow it home ! I bought a second hand Range Rover instead........ Cheers.
  6. I know Skoda are now a different motor to what they were. But to people of a certain vintage, the mere mention of "Skoda" has them howling with laughter and dreadging up old jokes about skips ! Cheers.
  7. HAARP Alaska......... One for the conspiracy theorists. Cheers.
  8. Tinned tattles, one minute in the deep fat fryer, excellent ! About 25p a tin at Aldi. Not gourmet, but a bit of Maggi seasoning and almost as nice as home made chips ! Cheers.
  9. Texas frozen !!!!! FFS, I blame that bloody global warming and that retarded little Scandinavian bint ! Cheers.
  10. life+on+mars+david+bowie - Google Search WWW.GOOGLE.CO.UK Cheets.
  11. I remember many years ago, my brother and I used to go to Wallsend Rising Sun Whippets on a Sunday morning, then afterwards go to the Rocket bar in Longbenton. We had to pass our mums house on the way and would call in, she wouldn't let us leave until we had bread dipped in the Sunday joint juices, as "it would put a lining on our stomachs" for the drink ! ? ! Bless her ! Cheers.
  12. I remember your classic cooking posts, Tomo; "Gas Mark 4, 30 minutes", Whats happened ? Your missus banned you from the kitchen ? Get some recipes up mate ! ? ! Cheers.
  13. We used to stand around waiting for mum to take the beef joint out the oven, crust in hand ! Cheers.
  14. Beef dripping or pork lard on bread, with salt and pepper ! A staple food of my youth. We were ok though, cholesterol hadn't been invented back then ? Cheers.
  15. Same here ! I fancied classic pork sandwich, the kind you used to be able to buy at the pork butchers, (remember them ?). Roasted a 2.5 kilo loin of pork, rubbed the rind with olive oil and sea salt. Dipped the stottie cake, ( that's a BIG bread bun to you southerners ?), in the meat juices. Sage & Onion stuffing, pease pudding and the creme' de la creme', Colmans English Mustard ! Must be served hot, of course ! A sandwich fit for kings ! I was looking forward to it so much, taking pics didn't enter my mind ! Cheers.
  16. Caramac ! Now there's a blast from the past ! Last time our Saudi daughter-in-Law was here, she asked if we could get caramac, as her mother loves it, but can only buy it on line. We found it in Poundland, of all places, and bough a suitcase full. Cost only a fraction of the price than online ! Cheers.
  17. Just shop at my local asda, mate........nobody even looks up when the alarm goes off. Cheers.
  18. Working dog lads will go to people who breed working dogs. The peddlers, profiteers, and breeders of non-working bred pups will still have people buying their pups, but genuine lads will still either breed their own or go to people they trust. The price is immaterial to me, it's how they are bred. If you want it, you'll travel anywhere and pay what it's worth to you. Cheers.
  19. Don't forget pikeys and Bruce Willis ? Cheers.
  20. "Pinnochio Syndrom" and "Disappearing Dick Disease"...... Very rare conditions, almost unheard of to get them simultaneously, could be linked to Covid , or having the vax, or maybe not having the vax, depending on what conspiracy theory you adhere to. ? Cheers.
  21. County Offaly is nice; a bit remote and rural, but that suited me ! Stayed in a little place called Ballycommon, fished in the Grand Canal and exercised the local hares. Cheers.
  22. I didn't say you did. You said "life as we know it". I just asked a general question concerning possible extraterrestrial life that may differ from "life as we know it", i.e. not carbon based, or on a goldilocks planet. As for what other elements do I think life could survive in, it depends what you mean by "life" .I know physicists contemplate different dimensions to the ones we recognise, so any possible "life" forms out there may be way beyond anything we can comprehend, living in elements we don't even know exist. Cheers.
  23. I've been happily married for 45 years.........I'd like to make it to 46 ! ? ! Cheers.
  24. Does does it have to be "life" as we know it ? Why do we think "life" needs to be carbon based and can only live on a "goldilocks" planet ? Cheers.
  25. I could write a long list, but my missus has a look on here now and again, so, for the sake of matrimonial harmony, and anything for a quiet life, I'll hold my tongue ! ? ! Cheers.
