  2. "Yull hev a greet crack, begorrah to be sure !"
  3. I've got very eclectic tastes from 60s to 80s to "easy listening" and a lot of things in between, but most of all it's guitar bands - The Smiths, Undertones and Manic Street Preachers especially - mind you, I could listen to Tony Bennett all day long !
  4. Be careful - there's a heck of a lot of sediment. If it gets back into the wine, you won't shift it. It's a nice wine though.......very sweet, VERY strong ! Good luck, mate !
  5. Trade wars, a new Cold War, leaving the EU or international jihadis ? No - Donald Trump will bring the apocalypse....apparently ! (Actually, he doesn't even make it halfway up the list, but never let the truth get in the way of a good story, eh ?) Trump presidency rated among top 10 global risks: EIU - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-35828747
  6. It was on the news 2 or 3 weeks ago that he was terminally ill. Terrible way to go, poor man. Irritating little chap, but a damn fine magician !
  7. Under-educated, under-worked, over-paid !
  8. My sister is a chiropodist and she has a treatment she uses for very dry and cracked skin on feet, but it works just as well on hands. Mix a good handful of porridge oats in some room temperature olive oil (cheap stuff will do) and let the oats soften a little. Then just immerse your hands in the mixture. Repeat three times a week...........
  9. Surely, he's close to unstoppable now ? US election: Trump advances despite Ohio loss, Clinton extends lead - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-35818487
  10. I've only had them once....... "We have been asked to contact you by your internet provider, regarding possible issues with your computer". I could barely hear him over the background commotion. (Is that the subtle aroma of rat ?) Me:"So you know who my internet provider is ?" Him: "Of course". Me: Sky have asked you to contact me ?" Him: We are contacting all Sky customers". Me: " I'm not a Sky customer !" Him: "All internet providers we work with". (His exact words) Me: (Pause) " Where are you calling from ?" Him: "Erm.........London". Me: " What part of London ?" Him: "
  11. Psychologists mat Goldsmith's have found a solution ! (They get paid to dream these things up !) Ethnic Playmobil could help immigrants settle at school - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-35783388
  12. There's a nice part of London ?
  13. Think I've got it ! Thanks, mate !
  14. What are you trying to achieveWhat device type are you using....? TOR and VPN are different animals VPN tunnels are single point, TOR by design needs 3 points of encrypted nodes, hence the slow performance I just want to watch TV - specifically, to unlock geo-blocked content. It's something recommended on sites I've seen, but I don't know anything about it other than that. I have both an android device and a Windows laptop. Can I have the last bit in English, mate ?
  15. And there seems to be in-breeding among the judges, not just the dogs ! http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/6998187/Things-get-wuff-at-Crufts-Row-as-judge-awards-a-top-prize-to-her-sister-and-hound.html
  16. BMW........Black Man's Wheels. Nuff said !
  17. It's true. We are rather partial to a bowl of rancid head soup. I've had rancid head a few times........
  18. The slower line speed could be a problem ! We only have around a meg, on a good day....... ......despite living in "the most forwzrd-looking and fastest growing city in the country".
  19. Isn't a VPN an add-on piece of software ? I only want to use geo-blocked content, not all that deep, dark stuff !
  20. My dog found a badger skull the other week.....probably not even 6inches long !
  21. Roe, sheep.....sheep, roe........ Just like that !
  22. Isn't the dark net where the paedo's and nut-jobs hang out ?
  23. That's a cracking little whippet !
  24. .....for beginners, please ! What is it ? Why use it ? Pro's and Con's ? Is there a good free one ? Cheers chaps.......
