  1. It’s Chinese rice-porridge,peasant food,a bit like gruel originally,I used to have it most mornings when I lived in Hong Kong from a street food place in mid-levels where a lot of the city workers got breakfast before going down to their offices in central. Its thickened up overnight got onions,garlic,ginger and chicken in,plus fried pulled chicken and fried shallots on top,perfect for a cold day,just been out for a quick walk round the lake behind me,going to have a bowl now.
  2. Snow forecast overnight so made congee for breakfast tomorrow.

    Israel

    I would have been there 100% if I was in the UK.
  4. Did a 20km section of a 76km snowmobile trail today,didn’t see one single person,but did see a few deer,a dozen turkey,a pilleated woodpecker and a red tail hawk JUST miss a red squirrel about 20 feet away from me.My brother in law saw a bear on the trail when he did it last year on his E-bike but today no trace except an odd little bear sign on the railway track.
  5. Couple of holes in the plot a good detective would have picked up on but overall good film 7/10
  6. Even Canute couldn’t command the tides lol
  7. You don’t answer to anyone,you have freedom,that’s priceless.

    He right,but not just young British blokes,EVERY British bloke who is sick of this shit,I went to a demo a few years ago and met a 70 odd year old British grandmother in a wheelchair who had got the train down to London from the north-east because she wanted change,everybody should attend,numbers.
  10. Temporary border restoration due to migrant pressure,the EU and her neighbours ain’t one big happy family.
  11. Just walked a ridge down through a local swamp,reminded me a little of Scotland,beautiful area,posters for bears and coyote in the lay-by,only saw a couple of beaver and an osprey.
  12. The Airsporter S was way out of my league and I knew it,I think most kids back then had visions of a feinwerkbau sport or the omnipotent HW35e as the ultimate whereas wolf dog strolls down to the store and gets a 900 Ft/Lbs BSA meteor without even being asked his age and gets to open-carry strolling round the neighbourhood shooting sparrows off the telly aerials.
  13. Reminds me of parts of Sunderland Leo,a friend of mines father got his own daughter pregnant when we were school kids,I think The Doors People are strange was about outcasts in society?
  14. I am an affable person mate,I don’t think of bad experiences,we learn from them and move on,everyone’s had unpleasant situations in their lives,it’s not good to dwell on them,positivity gets you through most things.
  15. Magic changing room helps mate.
  16. Not everyone gets hassle mate,I have met one or two people who weren’t nice but I was always on the right side of them,and I never drink,alcohol dulls your awareness of situations and people,I always like to be aware of what/who is around me,I think everyone on here has bumped into people who give off bad vibes,you pick up on it and distance yourself asap.
  17. The group who released Sarin?
  18. Fake passport costs good money,most people aren’t going to pay thousands for a genuine/fake book,yup the UK is tiny but some people just walk away from life’s through mental illness,or a need,most of those have to look back though and that’s when they resurface,human nature can’t not look back for most people,and it costs cash to reinvent yourself.Some people just don’t want to be found.

    Bare feet

    My kid studied gaits (I know,boring huh)but he reckons arch supports are helpful,I have some new boots so I am getting them,my feet are in good condition,I do some decent walks,we only get one pair of feet.I have seen feet of people who have never worn real shoes,they don’t look all that healthy.
