  1. I did say press also, but yeh, apologies for that, it was a "just got home after a shit day comment" you could be in SA now for all i know. however, you missed the point I was making, which is, you can't call one lot a bunch of nutters and the other all right for doing the same thing. who's to decide which cause is ok to plant bombs, it's either wrong or it's legitimate. Unless you can define when such actions are wholly justified, which you wouldn't be able to. would you support the IRA if you found out, as well as bombing England, they were bombing South Africa? would this fact make them any less the cowardly cuns because all of a sudden they are bombing for a cause you believe in? or would they be terrorists for the bombs in Britain and freedom fighters for the ones in Africa?
  2. without wanting to get into the Ireland thing, this highlighted bit shows, that despite numerous responses from you over 3 pages, you have no idea what you are talking about, and , as others have alluded to, you think mandella is a liberating freedom fighter because the BBC/press in general has told you that. Planting a bomb killing innocent people to achieve a political aim is either terrorism or it's not. make your mind up.
  3. Just spent some time In Lincoln, muck pigs out and rotate the fields for next years crops is the answer, along with hang around in shit tracksuits looking like extras from a Sacha Baron Cohen film.
  4. Grandfather came over from Ireland to guard POW's up in Cumbria, always used to say they were just normal lads who happened to be on a different side, reckons they were genuinely horrified when shown the images of the concentration camps and stats on the round up of jews etc, just as horrified as he was when shown what he was going to be showing them. Nowt to do with the subject, but my uncle still has a silver cigarette box with a German regiment badge on and a picture of some German woman inside, obviously a sweetheart of a prisoner, should have it looked at and valued/displayed somewhere I think, but he just keeps it in the display cabinet at home. and the sweetheart, the picture is from he neck up so I don't know.
  5. used to read the "queue this side" on bus stops as "queen this side". thought that side of the bus stop was for the queen only, and used to tell people they'd get in trouble if the police came for standing in the queens space edit: for sense as keyboard fucked and half of letters didn't appear
  6. watching it, Fascinating and humbling.
  7. no, neither would I, I'd employ a chauffeur to drive it.
  8. easy now, I have an Irish name and of Irish stock, could end up in the caravan of your dreams, all i have to do is grab and a luxury life of feeding horses and counting scrap money awaits
  9. indeed, was wondering if that's what you were getting at, but had you down as more intelligent than that to be honest, so just presumed it had stated pikey somewhere I hadn't seen. you usually just go with he facts you see, so found it unusual you would be incorrect
  10. he is entitled to it, he isn't a pikey, don't know where you get that from, whether he should get it is a discussion on the system of getting it. As it stands, working and paying in for 40 years means he is entitled to it. don't agree he should get it mind, but there's loads worse and loads richer, rather someone who worked for 40 years get something than someone who's done nowt for 40 years
  11. Just started dating a girl with eczema - i'll say one thing for her, she's got cracking tits.
  12. nightmare flash backs at he mention of that place, swimming in pyjamas with Beryl Stone pushing me away from the side with a stick and hoop when trying to grab on. that's the way to learn eh? swim or drown. Broken floor tiles that cut your feet and stinking, stinking toilets. in between the two pools, there was actually a "public baths" down a corridor, where people, without a bath at home I presume, could go and have a bath. some strange people in there when i wandered in as a kid, including one man pissing in the said baths. Got hammered off my mam for going in, so she must have been wary of the place, but I, along with loads of others were allowed to wander between the two pools in just our trunks. ah the good old days
  13. yes fake, was doing the rounds a couple of years ago as an Australian politician then.
  14. One on Chaddock lane? used them also, Wanderers fan, got two tyres put on before driving to Wembley, gave me a discount when he found out that was the reason for the new tyres in fact, wouldn't surprise me if he frequented this site, such was his choice of words when discussing the match and Bolton in general, never asked him though

    agree,can't usually be arsed with it tbh, but tonight the lad wanted to watch it. good players,but fuckin hell what a bunch of diving wankers,,both teams.
  16. maybe,but people provide their bank details now when they get a letter, the only difference is you'll know instantly, and yes, the phone number /email would have to be registered to the car, not much of a hard thing to make a pre requisite to vehicle registration. not saying that it is going to happen, but i know the cameras have the technology to be able to do it, should the powers that be decide they want to do it.
  17. your right, they do, so they may well think nothing of doing it with the new speed cameras, i just don't know if they will or not. i only know that the new cameras are due to be here next year and as well as speed, can do you for not wearing a seat belt or no insurance/mot etc. they are trailer mounted apparently, so will be used by the police, rather than fixed in any one location.
  18. F?ck knows, maybe the registered keeper will get the text, same as they get the letter now? I don't decide or owt, that's just what I know, the technology is already there on certain toll roads in Europe, Number plate read and billed from an account each time you go through a set point, can either set it up so it comes out of a certain account or log on and pay each time. wouldn't be much of a jump to put it onto speed cameras that read the registration. I don't know if it will come in here, may be all sorts of obstacles, financial and political, but I do know that the technology and cameras will be available to be here next year, the how they go about automated billing will be one of the deciding factors of whether they come in or not I would say.
  19. in the older style ones,with normal film, two flashes once you set the camera by travelling at speed towards it, then the picture is examined, at the time elapse between the two flashes, each of the white lines painted on the road represents 5mph, on examination, 6 lines behind your car and your fine, 7 and your fcked, if they can read the reg that is. That's also how they determine which car was speeding when two go through at the same time on two lane road, one speeding and one not. newer ones are digital and are linked directly to computer, but some are timed just be in operation at certain periods. the next generation, apparently due out next year, will take your picture, send you a text/email telling you you've been done and either ask for your bank details by reply or inform you of the amount they have just debited from your account details you have previously provided!then a letter informing you of your points/choice of speed awareness course. edit: the 6 and 7 measurement is for 30mph, obviously changes higher the speed limit.
  20. aye that works a treat, but, these folk who know best say to do it as Gonzo describes, they reckon it's best in the long run,but as Gonzo points out,not only noisy as fuck, but it's also hard to ignore your child when somethings obviously up with him/her, and for that reason iamout as the natives on here say, and always have been with mine.
  21. with you there mate,and share your pain, I fucked that method off after about 20 minutes,way I see it,any method that doesn't work after that length of time is shit anyway. pissed the wife off, but it's all right thinking these super nanny types on TV and writing shit in magazines know everything , but they don't have to listen to it all night with no sleep then get up at 6 and do a days work. I'm more favourable of he " you get up and give him what he wants to get him to shut the fuck up love" method myself, and I find that helps me sleep a lot better
  22. did he have a green and yellow scarf,? them Glazers out types usually do

    Gypos

    aye,I watched that,absolute disgrace, all this catching and eating rabbits and dear too,the "living off the land by poaching" tradition,all for the cameras, that lad didn't get that fat by eating rabbits he'd chased across a field. was pretty much bullshit to be honest, advertised as showing how gypsies settle feuds "their way", but the fight the lad had was not a traditional dispute settlement as his opponent changed at he last minute,and he didnt know who he was,so couldn't have had a feud to settle with him more likely a prize fight, which the other fella didn't seem too interested in,as one crack and he gave up. mind you, this coppers program that is on now,isn't showing the "normal" members of society in a good light either,so maybe he gypsies are watching that and thinking, "thank fuck we dont live like them"!
  24. Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your Captain speaking. I have good news and I have bad news. Which would you like first? ..." The good news" shout the passengers.... Ok, in about 100 years we will have 11 Oscars....
  25. Ladies and Gentlemen. This is your Captain speaking. If you look to the right, you will see the beautiful island of Giglio. And if you look to the left, you will see a man waving at you from a lifeboat. That is me
