Paulus. Since I came back into civilisation in 1984, there were only 2 coppers working Polesworth, Austrey, Orton on the Hill etc etc. which one of the 2 ran Salukis? There was only one bird man at the time and he lived in Wharton just Opposite the Fox and Dogs. Now lives in Aberdeenshire by the way. Ring any bells? Jok.

My Blackbird. The original import which went to a geezer in Cumbria who owned a motorcycle helmet manufacturing company. The bike went round and round on a circular stage for 7 years with only the cleaning lady giving it a dust. I got wind of it whilst racing at Donnington, made an offer and it was mine. I managed 174 mph outside Assen on the thing. Now that gets the blood rushing. Like yourself, age took over. Gone. Shame. Jok

My mate Chris had a Granby Yamaha which a hell of a lot of gears. He, foolishly let me loose on it and I ended up going straight through a pub door in Moulton, Northampton. He, foolishly, challenged another good friend to a bumper to back tyre race along Kettering Road, Northampton. My friend sat behind the wheel of a hyper spec Mustang which ran straight over Chris. Things we do. Jok.

My mate Joe raced both of the Maico’s at Polesworth. I think he still has all of them. And a Harley, an Indian, a huge Yamaha and dozens of lawnmowers. Hell of a guy. Have a look on Google at the meetings. Stypers Hill, Polesworth. Some big names have been there. I think there is a Boxing Day meeting coming up. Thinking about it Chris Walker won there a few years back. Jok.

Paulus. Did you ever get to the Polesworth meetings ? Stylers Hill. Jok.

Nope. The original breed was derived from the Newfoundland and Chesapeake retrievers. Bred originally as life saving breed. Anyone can check the Kennel Club requirements which show the silver as unrecognised as a breed. The AKC do see them as a breed but they must be registered as a chocolate Labrador breed. Therefore it seems fairly sure that a silver is a non breed. IMO. Jok.

Tuesday saw my boiler blow a wobbler. Kitchen, dining room and conservatory full of condensation. Basically fckd. I guess I am one of the fortunate few who has a niece, qualified as a gas fitter with British Gas. 3.1/2 hours later and being able to locate the part, we were up and running again. I guess this young lady deserves a great Xmas box. By heck though,it makes your bum cheeks go a bit. Jok.

Where are the rabbits coming from? Jok.

Charts. That ain’t no lab and you know it. Jok.

We had a tin basher who confided that 6p in every pound went to the charity. Basically all the remainder was his and administrators. We used to blindly give to tins for the local Air Ambulance but now any collections are delivered direct. Jok

Bird. Thought you were another one gone. Jok.

Nice pics Ross. As you may have guessed I’m not going to make it up. I’ll keep you informed. Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year yo you and yours. Jok.

Totally with you Charts. Just got in and was confronted with this. What the fck.?? Jok.

Ok. Sorry guys. Just didn’t make sense. No more ado. Jok.

Gentleman. I was not ‘defending the Hun’ as was so eloquently put. Merely asking a question which still nags at me. I can see both sides of the divide but seriously doubt the outcome. You are saying, I think, that the goalkeeper, who’s feet are planted in goal whilst holding the ball, only has to stretch his arms in front of the goal line to make it admissible. There is no logic to this imo. Jok.
-
I put another post up here last night regarding a goalkeepers feet. It didn’t reach the thread. Why? Jok.
-
Charts. Going on your response, just. A football being round can only have one grounding point. The whole ball cannot touch the ground so if the axis is over surely that means out of play. I think I know what I’m saying. Jok.
-
Not to be fazed. On an earlier post I asked a question and, probably was given the right answer. However, I’ve been thinking about it more and more. The goalkeeper caught the ball, in the air, and landed with both feet behind the goal line. Now, is the ball in his control or not? If the ball is in his control then that surely means it went went behind the goal line. The argument was that the ball needed to pass the goal line but in my opinion it did. I don’t follow football. Jok.

I think the Dukes land , around that area is well gamekeepered. From memory they use the Angus Hotel. Slither in after a shoot and sit as close as you dare to, hopefully get some info. Maybe even need some beaters which would open a door. Just a thought. Jok.
