  1. Eat them ? Most people these days think you're wierd if you like rabbit and pheasant !
  2. I've just replaced the coil, so I'll take it for a good thrash around and watch out for nasty emissions ! That's the wife, not my pick-up !!
  3. im sure it said on the radio there actually protected you have to a licence to trap them but once caught they can't be re released obviously because there non indigenous....so why the protection in the first place? All wildlife is protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act, I believe ? But I've got 4 terriers and a lurcher - and I don't think any of them can read !!
  4. https://drscdn.500px.org/photo/67648525/m%3D1170/a1907f0f6e9928a2ba7af7ae92b250de Look on the bright side, chaps - something else to shoot at !
  5. Predictably 'hard line', but another prominent politician has now said it out loud......... http://www.foxnews.com/world/2015/09/30/japan-not-taking-in-refugees-says-it-must-look-after-its-citizens-first/
  6. Breathe abdominally (by pushing your belly in and out), rather than just breathing into your chest. Hope that makes sense...... Anyway, it takes some of the pressure off your ribs, and helps prevent chest infections, which can occur because you're not breathing properly, due to the pain. And don't be tempted to wrap anything tight around your ribs to ease the pain........also makes you susceptible to chest infections. Get well soon, mate !
  7. I'm a gnat's pi55 under 6 foot and my brother is 6" 2...... One of my old rugby clubs once had the annual awards presented by Martin Bayfield, who's 6" 10'..............Jesus, he's big !
  8. Gordon Ramsay serves pike at his restaurant. Shouldn't imagine he gets it out of the Manchester Ship canal, mind ! What have you got to lose ? I'd give it a go - try anything once, me ! (Except for Morris dancing and incest !).
  9. Nothing great about London ! Apart from the fact that you left ! ?
  10. Are they positioned in a window They've been outside most of the summer, same as always. Then they'll be in the conservatory when the frost starts. To much sunlight Probally I have some outside also but in shade all the time I seriously doubt there's more sunlight in Wales than in England. Everything else is the same, except our water comes from a borehole so no chlorine. They seem well enough on it. Light quality could be better, though ! Unobstructed windows, less air pollution etc.......money plants don't like full sunlight. And anyway, I thought you lived in Surrey, no
  11. When I first heard of this story, it made me physically angry ! The soldiers were bought here for training (some of you may remember that our our old pal BPR was stationed at the same barracks). While here, they, and others among them, abused our hospitality and facilities in the worst possible way. I believe that their behaviour immediately puts them outside any asylum process. No claim for asylum should even be considered, and any lawyer that accepts their case should be ashamed of themselves ! I also believe that all foreign-born criminals should be immediately deported, on their releas
  12. Is this some sort of pi55-take........? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3254542/Now-freed-Libyan-soldiers-sexually-assaulted-three-teenage-girls-seeking-asylum-UK.html
  13. No chance of him ever putting the policy into action, but at least there is a voice of dissent.... Donald Trump: I would send Syrian refugees home - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-34397272
  14. Gypsy bare knuckle fighter, by any chance ?
  15. Bit of a tangent, but my fave fighter is Henry Armstrong, "Homicide Hank". Back in the days when there was only 8 weight divisions, and one governing authority (therefore only 8 world champions), he held 3 titles........at the same time !
  16. Sigmund Freud called it "the narcissism of small differences"; the tendency of closely allied people to engage in constant feuds. So the National Front split, the BNP was born and then morphed into Britain First, following a series of rifts and power struggles among people who essentially share the same views. I think the problem of the far right has always been bringing small, disparate groups under one umbrella, and keeping them together. If that could be achieved..........
  17. Well done to the lad, BigMac ! He's already a better man than most of us........
  18. I think it is meant to deter, yes....when it fails, they trot out " extreme right" and if that doesn't work, they'll resort to "neo-Nazi".......
  19. A case in point at the weekend..... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3250896/Cereal-offender-Hipster-hating-mob-attacks-novelty-cafe-anti-gentrification-protests-turn-violent.html .....and not a "far Right" follower among them !
  20. The "Who are Britain First ?" piece was nothing more than 15 minutes of interviews with a couple of muslims, an ex-member and several known opponents......with a couple of sound bites by Paul Golding and Jayda Fransen.....all put together by a clearly biased reporter ! "Who are Britain First ?" - let's ask the imam of the largest mosque in Luton.......BBC journalism at its best !
  21. Later this morning Victoria Derbyshire is looking at Britain First (BBC2 9.15am), then tonight there's "White Supremacy", examining the KKK in America (BBC3 9pm) - part of a series covering similar "issues". On the downside, its presented by that tw4t, Reggie Yeats. Don't expect balanced, objective journalism, mind you !!
  22. But that coin has a flip side...... It ends when enough of us say "No more !"..........
  23. I swear I haven't made this up! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/art/what-to-see/sylvanian-families-isis-banned-freedom-expression/
  24. In today's Times (page 50)......... "Hundreds of Iraqi migrants, who have travelled north through Europe to reach Finland, are turning back, saying the country is too cold and boring. 'You can tell the world I hate Finland. It's too cold, there's no tea, no restaurants, no bars, nobody on the streets, only cars', declared Muhammed (22), on the Finland/Sweden boxer near the Arctic circle." Made me smile !
