They might send him as a cultural ambassador to Papa New Guinea or Sunderland.

One thing is for certain; they will have to sell before they buy. Levy won't change his tight fiscal policy. I reckon Lloris, Rose and pretty well all of their established defence, Lamela, Dier, Wanyma.......... The only thing they can't yet sell is their striker as they only have one. Lamela would be a good buy for West Ham. IF he can stay fit he is a very good player.

This news is good for my Fantasy Football Team. I've got Gazzaniga in goal and his clean sheet prospects have taken a turn for the better with ten white shirts camped round his penalty area ? Can't see Kane getting the Golden Boot in the next couple of years it takes for Mourinho to be sacked again.

What he said is that the Tories have turned their back on the People's Vote - whatever that is. Wasn't it the people who already voted? And Corbyn has indicated that he would allow a second EU referendum if people wanted it, but not for a referendum for Scotland's independence even if the people wanted it, so he is as inconsistent as ever. The Brexit Party hasn't gone anywhere, neither has Farage. If you want Brexit to be done and there isn't a Conservative MP standing in your area then you probably will find a Brexit Party candidate. If you don't want Brexit then safest to vote Lib-Dem a

They have made 2 mistakes on the same day. Mourinho can't build without spending big and Levy won't spend. Looks like a match made in Hell. ?

There was something bubbling at Tottenham. Too many senior players not committing to extending their contracts. I'm still not sure whether the problem was Poch' or Levy.

If your gaffer knew that he would have bought you a car. It would have been cheaper than replacing the engine in the bulldozer every year.

I'm guessing that you didn't own the bulldozer ?

I've done a fair few interviews and have picked up on the body language signs and the reliance on evidence that the suspect thinks cannot be disproved. He shows all the classic signs of guilt. That is not to say that he is of course as some people react differently to pressure and stress than others and I have no doubt that he will have been coached prior to the interview. But all in all, he gives the impression of being guilty in my opinion, for what it is worth. And to be honest, I don't think that he will get any protection from the press. They will use professional psychologists to st

I remember the commentators saying that Dier was the first name on the team sheet, yet he has just slipped into oblivion. England need somebody to break up the opponent's play especially with the number of bodies they commit to attack these days.

You will know when it is the right time. ?

On about collies for hunting; at one time I had three, two were ISDS registered so they had come from working trials stock and the other was unregistered. They all worked a beating line under control (which was a rarity on our shoot ? ) and would also work individually. One was like a springer, covering miles of ground flushing and retrieving, one worked like a pointer freezing whenever she located a bird that was reluctant to flush hiding in a bush or down a rabbit hole, and the other was like a bulldozer. No cover was too thick for him. Whenever Gem froze on point one of the others would ru

Anyway; looking at Inger-land last night and the game before I think that they desperately need a defensve midfielder to break up the opposition's attacks. In both of the last two games nobody has laid a glove on opponents when they counter attack, they just cut through us like butter. So, is either of Declan Rice or Harry Winks any good in that role? Could one or both of them be our Kante? If not, who else is there? Henderson is third in line at Liverpool, Dier is third or fourth in line at Spurs after being a regular and all the others seem to be foreigners. Both Winks and Rice played last n

I had a springer who used to accompany me when mole-trapping around the farm where we used to live. Without any training she quickly picked up the habit of running ahead to check the trap sites and would indicate traps with moles in them. She also used to find traps that foxes or badgers had dug out and abandoned nearby. Now we have a small Fox Terrier x JRT that we got from the local refuge. She comes with me on Mole patrol and has also started to check the traps and indicate any with moles in them. Last week while i was tidying up a Putange site where a trap had been dug up

At last a party with sensible policies: The Monster Raving Looney Party manifesto: A. AIR bags will be fitted to the Stock Exchange immediately, ready for the next crash. B. BRITAIN will exit Europe and join the Duchy of Cornwall to benefit from tax exemptions. C. CAPITAL Punishment will be opposed on the grounds that it is unfair to Londoners. D. DATA will be secured, placed in a brown bag and hidden in the PM’s socks and pants drawer. E. Education. All University Tuition fees for women would be free as we are strong believers in Female intuition. (Due t

There are loads of those on youtube ?

You are welcome. Glad you have had some benefit out of using Putanges. ? If you are using a Mk. 4 trap for rats then I would suspend a couple of Frolicks dog biscuits over the treadle using a short length of fence wire. These biscuits have a strong smell and rats love them. And if you cover the trap to keep most of the rain out you only need change the biscuits every two or three weeks. (They are also brilliant baits for carp, chub and barbel). Make sure that you recess the trap as in Katchum's photo by placing a couple of flat pieces of wood to raise the trap floor either side of the tr

I made some similar ones out of welded garden mesh that I'd bought to make swim feeders for fishing. I put a ridge tile over the top to keep most of the rain out.

It is interesting that they were linked to Canada as a lot of people don't realise that when Columbus supposedly discovered America the Basques were already there fishing the Grand Banks and drying cod on the shores of what is now Cape Cod. The boats Columbus used were built by Basque carpenters and his crew were mostly Basques. They just went there to dish, he went to further his own reputation. The Danes were equally adventurous and pushed the boundaries of exploration way beyond what we were taught in school. As I've said before, the Normans were third or fourth generation Danes and t
-
I think so. But from your point of view it is better to tell your mates that you are descended from heroic ice-age hunter-gatherers rather than some wop waiter from Benidorm.

And when the Swedes, Norwegians and Danes get their DNA results they'll find a little bit of Paddy ?
-
Actually I got it wrong. It was the Basques who migrated up the Atlantic seaboard, not the Catalonians. I have just been applying for and downloading a fishing licence for Catalonia and that had stuck in my mind, but it wasn't them, it was the Basques who's DNA is embedded right up the Bay of Biscay, into Brittany and Normandy, Cornwall, west Wales and into Ireland and the South-West of Scotland. A lot of people wonder why they have 'Viking' ancestor. What that relates to is that the Scandinavians who travelled extensively. Just before the Norman Conquest there were two large Danish settl
-
In Arry's case he is obviously related to the Iberian coastal foragers who migrated up the Atlantic seaboard looking for mushrooms ?
-
The Iberian may be Catalonian. During the Ice Age the sea receded causing a land bridge between England, Ireland and France. Coastal dwellers from Spain and France followed the shoreline and some settled in Ireland, Wales and Scotland. Until DNA tests became more easily accessible historians thought that the Spanish blood found in parts of Ireland and Scotland was from Spanish sailors who were shipwrecked trying to get back home around the top of Scotland and the west coast of Ireland after the Armada was defeated by Francis Drake's naval force. DNA tests have disproved that theory and place t

And there seems to be a couple of places in North London where the practice still goes on.
