China haven't won a real war in over 100 years. They haven't the spirit for it. Technology is one thing, but when it is boots on the ground those single sons, the Little Emporers, will disolve like rice paper.

Very statesmanlike I don't think P.s. "Sick to DEAF" got to be a wind up or fake post. Boris went to Eton. He is edjukated

There are two prices for many things in Cyprus; local & tourist. Ifyou are lucky you will find things become less expensive in time. Winter heating costs will not be cheap. Most of the local wood is pine and they don't yet have any oil or gas of their own. Water is getting expensive too. For me, living in Cyprus would be too claustrophobic.

Nowhere is perfect. Cyprus is too small with hardly any decent fishing or hunting. The weather is good for about 4 months of the year, but winters are cold and wet and summers are much too hot. Many of the houses available on the market are only suited to the 4 months of temperate weather. Cost of living is getting high. France has good weather in parts and you can choose what sort of climate you prefer. However, the weather is not what it used to be. Plenty of good fishing. Hunting and shooting isn't what we are used to in the UK and doesn't suit me. Cost of living is higher than th

Marshmallows have been mentioned in the past.

I quoted a guy €300 for a mole job as I didn't want to travel so far. But he accepted the quote and paid me even though there was only one mole. He called again two years later and we did the same deal.

We used to collect our own nests and bloodworm. The nests would be reccied in the week then dug up on Friday night as we didn't have a freezer back then. We used smoke tablets from the iron mongers to sedate them.

Only done one this year. As you can see I disposed of the nest ethically

He'll be in Bridlington. That is where all the WMC Treasurers used to head for with the money they had embezzeled from the Club funds. -
Most of what he wrote was bollox and the rest was copied from others.

We have a pair in our porch awning. They must hibrernate between the roof tiles and boards. It amazes me that they survive the winters that regularly drop below 10C on a night for two or three weeks. There is a street lamp just outside our garden where moths congregate. That is bat cafe. Just a bit of useless information: Izaac Walton wrote about finding hibernating swallows in a tree trunk. My bet is that he found bats and mistook them for birds.

When I was fishing last week I saw a bat flying about at around 3:30 in the afternoon. You can see it just under the tree Around the same time last year and about 20km away I saw a bat flying around the river bank just before noon. They may well be confused youngsters.

It has been that nationally for years. They have to draw a line somewhere. In France it is 2kph over the limit for a fine and 20kph for vehicle confiscation and a ban.

Firstly, traffic speed enforcement isn't carried out by coppers. The people sat behind the cameras are civiians. Same with parking tickets. All civilianised by the local authority or privatised. Secondly tax discs wasn't been a police matter for several years before they were scrapped. Again civilianised. Those tickets issued for contravening bus lanes, junctions, weight limits, etc are all issued and posted out by the local authorities. Police haven't done any of that for over fifteen years. Still, why let facts get in the way of your opinions?

Don't think for a minute the beat bobbies support the increase in speed cameras. It makes their jobs harder. When they parked the camera vans at Sheffield airport quite often they discovered that the cable used to charge the camera batteries had been disconnected overnight. A chief inspector set a trap for the culprits by having cctv cameras set up in the garage. Next morning the cameras hadn't been charged. Someone had switched off the circuit on the master consumer unit.

He'll be hoping to sell them some ships. He's heard they haven't got any aircraft carriers or subs.

The first reason is right. Russia doesn't do goodwill gestures. It will be the same if they manage to secure a coastal strip. It will be constantly under attack and could not be sustained long term.

There was a mass exodus of unemployed from my part of the world about 20 to 25 years ago. They wanted to live the high life in places like Blackpool and Skeg Vegas, flaunting their Job Seekers Benefits.

No coincidence that some of the cities that make the list are far too expensive for most people to live there. And they don't seem to have much in the way of social housing for the immigrants. Strange that.

Not all union leaders are ultra left wing. But they have to be left of centre as it is the ones on the right side of centre who are usually screwing the workers. Bliar being the exception.
