Jack S it was for metalwork - top bloke and I thoroughly deserved the battering he gave me 😃 In his lesson I made a trowel that my old mam used to flick dogmuck into next door's garden with. Proper good, hand crafted and riveted - the trowel, not the dogmuck. TH, yes, the trackie bottomed twat. IH was the one dishing out the broken nose. It was all good fun back in the day.

Aye. Rancid cunt.

ah yes, the tanking. To the uninitiated, this involved him back handed slapping boy's bare bottoms in the changing rooms. I sincerely hope he ended up getting done. Cunt. Back then there was also violence. Sometimes deserved e.g. when I got battered with a big metal ruler after making a kung fu fighting star in metalwork and lobbing it across the room at my mate. But other times, well that lad got slapped full in the face ( by a teacher) on a coach back from some trip or other after he slagged off BWFC (he was a City fan) and then his nose broken after his head being slammed into the desk by a different teacher. But then again there were some cracking teachers and one who directed my career by encouragement, and if he's still with us I'd thank to the bottom of my heart. It was a different world. I left in '81.

Aye; one day we turned up with cossies ready for swimming and he decided it was long jump day. So just dressed in trunks we got marched down to the long jump pit. Lasses playing rounders were pissing themselves. Nothing odd about that change of plan at all was there? Or the time one lad forgot his trunks and so same teacher made him swim naked.

A-bombing them counts as an invasion I guess.

Fucking freezing at the best of times, but totally unheated if you did the lifesaving classes after hours. Diving down for a rubber brick etc. Only good thing about that was it was mixed and the lasses changing area was open plan 😃

Having been a great supporter of the Derwent Pencil Museum... Derwent Pencil Museum | Derwent UK (derwentart.com) ... I stupidly bought into the narrative on their forum board. I'm ashamed to say I did engage in protests against rival ink-based museums, and once - and I'm afraid to say this - fire-bombed Michael Parkinson's house in protest at his constant proselyting of Parker pens. Thing is, I was young, naive and a big fan fan of pencils - - but unfortunately I was easily lead.

Seriously though, I was a keen contributor to an allotment one. Lots of great tips and help with growing stuff and making the most out of a small area of nature's finest in non-rural areas. Top lad ran it and kept us all up to date with his "adventures" with rhubarb, cultivating spring onions and even, at one, point, using a goat to carefully manage the site. This became our inspiration and many on the board, myself included, learnt invaluable lessons for self sustainability. Unfortunately a few years ago, he just lost the plot.

I was on flower arranging one. Great stuff and some really good folks on there I'd like to think of friends now. But unfortunately a few years back it kicked the bouquet.

used to be on an origami one. Great it was, until it folded.

unmannedspaceflight is a cracker for keeping up with space missions. Many on there are the actual people remotely driving the rovers on Mars etc. Has kicked off before now on there though when someone tries to mention politics or biology, which are big no-no's. Did try an experiment a bit back to see if boards could get as mardy as this can; so I thought what's the most innocuous subject I could think of? Stamp collecting! So I went on one and sure enough in the first few posts I read it had all kicked off because someone had not read forum rules about quality of images to upload for appraisal of their stamp, got told off, got back in sweary mode - and it booted off. So it's not just us! So I tried to think of another; butterflies I thought. And I was right - there was no argy-bargy that I could see, but when they showed the pictures of their annual get together it looked like half a dozen extras from The Hills Have Eyes. Any butterfly seeing them come at it would fuck off sharpish. Probably why their numbers are dwindling (indeed, I have seriously seen fuck all of them round here this summer, so there might be summat in it). Didn't we invade a banjo playing forum in the States many many moons ago, telling them we were banjo enthusiasts from Burnley 😄

Yeh, it was obviously bad enough but the pics just send you over the edge 😞

I read that as Dick Emery at first 😃

Maybe where they chuck stuff and have changed the weight of the discus or javelin? Women's discus record is longer than the men's but the discus weighs less. Or summat. Equestrian triathlon would be great. You have to swim your horse for a bit, try to keep up with it on a bike (so it would act a pace maker) and then ride it home for the last leg. In the paralympic equestrian, does to horse have to be disabled as well? They could get that Dujardin lass in to knock them out of shape. 3 line whip.

Serves it right for driving a capri

Well at least it all turned out nice again in the end.

Hotel Feronya reunion party ?

yeh, but she's flatpacked as well. Assembly instructions are a bastard:

As I said before, for a fraction of all this and Rwanda money etc you could just pay the people smugglers to become border guards. Sorted!

Aye that's the annoying thing about what happened now and recently. But then again you could get the best manager possible in and max the performance, and it's still cup football. The latter fact does mean you're in the hands of fickle fate to some extent. Other teams at a EC or WC could have a golden generation on the pitch; one keeper fumble or a bad miss; you're playing in someone's backyard and the environment is against you or the heavens open and level things out; couple of crucial injuries at just the wrong time. So that's the problem measuring success in comps that only come round every two years and can hinge on just one 90 minutes. We could max everything out and still fall short. If someone had got the very best out of Sunday's team we could still have fallen short at the very end against a highly talented team, especially if luck was against us. That's cup football for you. But for all that, there's no way on earth he can said to have got the best out of what he had. All I'm saying is that even if you did, there's never a guarantee, never will be. Manager of the year will always be judged on what they did over 40 league games, not what happened in the FA Cup.

"TV on the Radio". Used to love the shout-outs written in by kids who would usually give the game away that they weren't quit as hard-boiled as they'd think - "to Rock God, from Sexwolf - good luck with your o'levels"

From CNN Company debuts vending machines selling ammunition in 3 Southern states | CNN Vending machines selling ammunition will now be in grocery stores in Alabama, Texas and Oklahoma – a move that has generated mixed feelings from officials in those states. American Rounds, the distributor of the machines, uses AI technology to scan the customers’ identification as well as facial recognition software to verify a customer’s identity, according to the company’s website. The software works together to verify the buyer’s age and that the person using the machine matches the identification scanned. Each machine sells ammunition for various firearm calibers, including rifles, shotguns and handguns, according to American Rounds.
