  1. Anjem Choudary up to his old tricks?Sharia is alive and well and meting out "Justice" in an islamic enclave near you.
  2. From practocal experience a few snake skins in a house dont deter rats,though a resident cobra or python thin the numbers down significantly.
  3. Also a lot of my old mates who still live up-north have gotten their children into the sports,my mate in p/well shaun(a few of you know him)now keeps BOP's but his lads are into lurchers,Clucky also now has BOP's but his son has a dog,its sometimes a generational thing with the interests passed down.
  4. Tomo hit the nail squarely on the head,coal-mines and heavy industry,working-class districts always have more working dogs than middle class or upper class,when I was a kid there were loads of pigeon duckets,lurchers,terriers,ferrets around,plebian sports for the average guy that didnt cost a fortune,I live in a very nice area now,I maybe see one or two lurchers a year being walked if that?

  9. Theres a Sean Frain working terrier book in the local library,its been there for about 3 years and has only been on loan once,if that was a Plummer book someone would have long since snaffled it from the shelves
  10. Incredible number,how many would you average on a night in London back then?
  11. I have actually caught fish on a Toys'R'Us rod Nodaways I can cast a fly and have a cheap fly-rod setup I bought from flea-bay .
  12. The rats are sacred,dont think anyone would be popular if they injured or killed one,I remember shuffling my feet across the white marble floors so I wouldnt step on one
  13. That was the rough price when I was last there November 2010.
  14. Words,supposition,piffle,guys like David Copeland and Anders Behring Breivik either have a very focused mindset 100% for their cause or are wired slightly different to the average person,EDL are neither,they just like a bit of a ruck when theres no footie match to kick off at
  15. I once had to walk barefoot through a dark tunnel absolutely filled with dozens,maybe hundreds of them,the building I was visiting was in Deshnoke,its the Karni Mata temple,theres absolutely thousands in the temple itself,scabrous diseased things,I had to remove my boots before entering

    AMY WINEHOUSE

    Theres about 300 people a DAY die in the UK from smoking either directly or smoking related diseases,i dont know the stats on alcohol,but the two combined kill far more annually than any illegal drug in this country,and both are freely available in any supermarket,alcohol screws far more peoples minds than cannabis
