  1. Haven't watched Ememrdale Farm since those "badger baiters " beat up Seth the gamekeeper. That's when the helicopters stared to appear in friendly skies above an once green an pleasant land.
  2. People are just taking the piss and may pretend that they never have Corrie on the TV in their house, but ...the next it is on you will all be looking to see who is wearing poppies. All will have them, not just the psychopath.
  3. My post isn't about Coronation Street, more about I notice daft things. Everyone on the tele is wearing poppies for some reason (11th of November is when they should be worn) on live shows but that episode of Coronation Street would have been filmed a few weeks ago. The writers and producers put a poppy on the most hated character for a reason, their own reasons.
  4. I watch very little TV apart from sport but that thing tonight struck me as very strange re Corrie.
  5. Got home several hours ago. Did jobs that needed to be done then turned the tele on to watch Southampton v Newcastle. 2-0. No complaints. But, before the game started I watched Coronation Street. Something that struck me was that the only one character that was wearing a poppy was the hated Jeff person. I just found it very strange that the nice characters had no poppies but the evil c##t did.
  6. For what reason do you think that she should not be bred from? She is 9" but was she not produced from similar sized parents?
  7. That's not too bad mate. Wouldn't comply with current regs but most domestic installations don't. Seen far worse.
  8. Sockets with integral RCBOs are on the market and easily fitted, isolate the supply, remove the old socket and replace with new and put a plug on the flex is probably the easiest way to do it. I will leave my input at that.
  9. Opening up a can worms but ...the manufacturer is covering their arse, correctly, by stating that the pump is not a portable appliance, it must be "hard wired", meaning cannot be plugged and unplugged into a socket. The supply cable, the flex that would usually come with a 3 pin 13 amp fused plug attached to it, should be connected into a fused connection unit, hence in did not come supplied with a plug. The circuit that the FCU is supplied by, your power circuit that probably powers your kitchen sockets should be RCBO (not RCD) protected at origin at your consumer unit (fuse box). Not a
  10. We were on the part refurbishment and extension of Ashington high a few years ago, a kick up the arse from Bedlington. I was surprised at the amount of Bedlingtons about. Modern KC stuff but still more of a terrier type than toy poodle with a bit of substance and colour, not like the light bone and dirty white or pink coats found in some show dogs. I find it strange that a pit village in northern England gave the name to a breed now found throughout the world. The locals still seem proud of their dog.
  11. Thankfully seems like there'll be other days for him. That's a good bag of rats.
  12. You're not building a large wooden boat by any chance?
  13. Not the perfect breed of dog to do the work allowed now in the UK and never were, apart from the jobs that they were developed for. But will hunt, run and catch anything and are very nice animals to own. Depends on how much you need to catch and how often.
  14. I agree 100%. My use of the word "honest" has been misinterpreted. The point that I was trying to make is that he did not feel the need to disguise his extreme left politics too much, and his plans for the UK if he was to become PM. That's why I "liked" him as even many born and bred Labour voters could not bring themselves to vote for him. Much to the disgust and astonishment of the middle class working class heroes who are now regrouping and rethinking ways of implementing their dreams.
  15. That's a shame. He was honest. An idiot but an honest idiot. He was the only reason that Labour were unsuccessful in the last election. Now his devotees who have learned not to be so honest will be more successful.
  16. Are you thinking the character of the dog was captured by the work done in the 1st or 2nd stage and has been overworked by the 3rd? I do not think so but wondering why you ask the question. All 3 images are very, very nice.
  17. It's always going to be about money, that's the modern game in England and I think everyone gets that and no one holds a gun to any one's head, but PPV is a step too far I think. Good reaction from those donating to "food banks" instead of paying to watch the games. Particularly Leeds fans according to reports.
  18. I see that Mike Ashley has spoken out about the PPV matches as a piss take of fans wanting to watch their team when not allowed in the ground but already forking out for Sky and/or BT. Fair play.
  19. 2 scared teams played each other tonight. Good players in both squads but the managers are not playing to win games, just for survival in the league.
  20. He will be along soon enough, or will he?
  21. How are Sunderland doing?
