No - married with kids, I believe. Don't think the guy who plays the creepy gay vicar is, either. (Edited to add - I checked, and he is ! When I say "I checked", I mean I asked Professor Google.........not, er, you know, "checked" in that way........note to self - stop digging.) The good lady reckons that the chap who plays Ken Barlow's ginger lad - the one with anger management issues - is definitely a shirt lifter. That Sean, who works in the Rovers..........not sure about him !

He got the sack a couple of weeks ago (before he was found guilty of anything !).......... .........I hope he takes the creepy gay vicar with him !

Intent ! Gun, knife, acid, hired van, Biro refilll.....inanimate objects can't do 5hit ! My mother in law detest my shotgun ownership, on the ground that "guns kill people". One day, when I was said of hearing her wittering, I opened my cabinet, took out a SxS 12 bore and stood it in the corner of the living room. She queried my point, so I told her "That can stand there for ever more, until the day it rusts into ground - it's not dangerous until someone picks it up , with the aim of doing harm !" The defence resets it's case.........

It's well worth it ! Tuvia Bielski was a genuine hero ! Ray Mears did a very good episode about the Bielskis......his "heroes of bushcraft".....!
-
Anthropoid.........the true story of the assassination of Reynard Heydrich, by the Czech resistance. Well worth a couple of hours of our time ! (It's an excellent remake of Operation Daybreak - one of my favourite films.) I'm also like Defiance - another true story, this time about the Bielski brothers, who ran a Jewish resistance unit, in the forests of Belarus. Again ,well worth a watch......

On behalf of all my fellow Notts lads.......welcome !

silly question but I'm new to this

Functionality, mate ! If it does it's job, it's good enough - but you'll get some stick off some just for having a .22 !! -

1. The general license allows for "pest control or crop protection". Corvids certainly qualify for the first...... 2. Ask him - most farms have an incinerator, of some sort. -
Five AR-15s !! Jesus, that taking home defence very seriously !
-
For me, it's always about functionality ! Can do it's intended job, to a standard that's acceptable to you ? If it does, it's a useful tool........ if not, it's a pile of scrap, irrespective of make, model etc.

True story....... In the dead of night, my former father-in-law mixed up Preparation H and Ralgex ! (The most unholy noise you've ever heard !)

What's the difference between a computer and Jukel ? You only have to punch information into a computer once !
-
20/20......... vision..........blind ? Never mind. I'll fetch your coat !
-
Wouldn't do much for me - I don't like trifle ! It's the jelly.........yuk !! I did once see a recipe for the ultimate use - bacon moonshine !
-
I wouldn't want to belong to any club that would have me as a member !
-
Animal rights activists have broken into Battersea Dogs Home, and released over 400 dogs....... .........police are desperate for leads !
-
Apologies for any unintended connotations between a station called Union Jack and a track titled "Mother Tongue"..........I've only just spotted it !
-
I listen to Union Jack Radio (if you have DAB, I highly recommend it !), and this is one of their current favourites.......
-
His brother tweeted that he (the brother) is "Heartbroken. Gutted"..........though obviously not as heartbroken as Mr and Mrs Steenkamp ! I think 13 years for cold blooded murder is still ridiculously lenient.

I get through shed loads of bacon - barely a day goes by that I don't eat it - so I tend to buy cheaper stuff. Can't be doing with smoked bacon though........... The other day there was one of those yellow label "Oops" things in the supermarket - Wiltshire dry cured back bacon - 6 rashers (hardly 2 days worth !) for just over a quid. Gotta say that the difference was remarkable. A much better, deeper flavour and no white snot all over the pan ! Wish I could afford it all the time ! I am of the earnest belief that whatever type you prefer, there is nothing.......nothing.......that can

Fair enough. That's what I get for not bothering to click the link !

It was on my local news a couple of nights ago. He was importing them as antiques or deactivated, and "refurbishing" them. Some found their way into criminal hands, so my sympathy level is zero !
-
Mate, I love mine ! I could have sold it so many times, but I'd never part with it - it does the job beautifully, for me.
-
It was me - and that's my gripe with them - overrated ! Apart from "Eleanor Right" ( which I have to admit liking), their songs are nothing special - most of them could have been written by any averagely talented songwriter.
