I reckon if Nicola Sturgeon gets Scottish Independence she'll be rallying the clans and marching south.

Now it makes sense.

Think back to how important that gravy was on the day that you chose to freeze it. Is it more important now? And why would any sane person freeze gravy? Ok, you had too much gravy at the time when you decided to freeze the surplus and now you have none but ...it's just gravy.

Seems like you're living the dream Toolebox. My dream anyway. We all make our own choices but some make better choices than others ? Any photographs of the Fox Terrier type in your breeding?

Not sure if you were agreeing with me or not. But not a mental illness to the down trodden that have f**k all. They are given false hope by people who promise them a Utopia.

Does Nicola Sturgeon and her party honestly believe that if Scotland were to leave the UK and become a "country" that the EU would accept them? This is most bizarre thing ever to be muted in our history to date. Even more bizarre is the fact that this delusion has not been officially addressed to the nation, our nation , by Government. Who know it is a joke. The second that Scotland would cease to be part of the UK every UK military installation in Scotland would become an occupying military force. The UK would need to leave, quickly. That would be relatively easy in comparison to th

Seriously though when I hear these "modern man" types talk I really don't understand how they can cope, long before the pandemic. The good side is they have no problem working weekends or holiday periods. Anything to get out of the house and also balance the credit cards maxed out by their nearest and dearest. Women have always worn the trousers but now seem to do nothing in return and these poor b*****ds don't have the local club as a retreat as former generations of men did. Sorry for going off on a tangent on your thread Socks.

The lad I mentioned has started work on a man cave, we used to call them sheds, as he enjoyed having a space of his own. Only taken him nearly 20 years to stand up for himself.

A work mate who was furloughed for a few month stuck in the house with his wife and 2 teenage daughters ended up living in a tent in his back garden. He's not into camping or the outdoor life in any way but got to the point where he couldn't handle being couped up with his family anymore. He's back to work now and regained his sanity.

If you've recieved NHS notification to self-isolate it still applies even if you yourself test negative. I'm doing that at the moment but luckily can work from home. Lads on site only get stat sick pay.

How many of those wanting a ban bother to check how their chicken and bacon is produced and are willing to pay the bit extra for meat and eggs not the product of intensive farming? They love animals but not that much.

Done

I have noticed a lot more Patterdale types with pet owners in recent years. Two types seem to be emerging. Tiny black dogs (11") and massive (16" +) chocolate/liver coloured.

A school were boys hunted, were taught to shoot and prayed at a Christian church. No doubt for the officer classes rather than oiks like me. A long gone England that many are happy to consign to the history books. Too happy in my opinion.

What a great photograph!

I don't think she became the PM but I don't keep abreast with current affairs. But some of them Durham university lasses were very posh.

I always thought a lipstick lesbian meant a faux lesbian? Trendy young good looking women snogging their mates on nights out or dabbling in threesomes but not actually gay. I was lucky enough to know one personally many years ago.

Great news about the fishing but is it just a coincidence that no sooner have we left the EU than we seem to have gotten our seasonal snow back? ?

That just about sums up the attitude of the political elite in modern Europe. The same as the Jeremy Corbyn disciples, if you do not regard him as the answer to all the word's problems then you are too stupid to have an opinion worth listening to. I very rarely talk politics but have got on my high horse a bit in this topic. I am sick of the attitude that if you are white and working class but do not have a Che Guevara tattoo then you are a sub species. Ironic really as these middle class working class heroes have become the very thing that they purport to despise. That's me done and I'm

Cheers chartpolski.

It's interesting that you make the point of getting something that you voted for. I'm not pretending to be an expert on the EU and have not read a great deal about it not being a political animal, and a little knowledge is as they say a dangerous thing . But ...as I understand it, the fundamental of the founding fathers of the Council of Europe, the base line in the development of the EU, was to prevent extreme nationalism. No longer should the masses be trusted to give power to "political parties" such as the German National Socialist Party by means of a democratic voting system. These import

I have always thought that membership of the EU was less beneficial to the UK that to other countries. My reasons may be dismissed as naive or irrelevant in the 21st century and probably no doubt xenophobic to those who disagree. Basically we are unique as an European country that was an EU member. It cannot be disputed that we are an island. The R.O.I position being complicated by N.I. and Iceland is officially a non-EU state. One of the fundamentals of EU foundation was to prevent future wars in Europe in the aftermath of WW2. I can well see the importance of this to other countries wh

I hate throwing anything away but there are times when you must face the facts and just try and remember the good times that you had together and move on.

That's a very good point regarding a gundog's continuous motion. I always used terriers for what is now called bushing to find and flush (catching was a bonus) for lurchers or whippets or the gun. I never felt the need to add anything else but they were jack of all trades and were only worked for sport/fun. Recent years I've been going out with a friends ESS's and their drive and work rate is incredible and a joy to see. But I find them hard to read as they go 100 mph all the time. I could well see a running dog having the same problem unlike following a terrier that has different gears and wh

LED lamps (bulbs...but I was taught that bulbs are something that you plant in the garden) are made in most fittings now. Take the head light to an electrical wholesaler and they may have something that fits.
