Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

Hays,
Not so.
I play chess and have dealt with a quite a few villains and even murderers, but, so far, have escaped being imprisoned or even worse been called "posh". Other epithets have been frequently used about me.
Also, met many who had dubious habits and methods of dealing.
But, being less than pure in all my actions in the past, consider myself lucky, but aware of human fallibility and sometimes have difficulty in condemning too harshly "some" others.

Hi Goldfinger,
You are right re being pised, but if you are teetotal you could always have a shot every time Labour admit they were wrong.

This is too true to be funny.
The next time you hear a politician use the Word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about whether you want the 'politicians' spending
YOUR tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective.
A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
A billion hours ago our ancestors were Living in the Stone Age.
A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
A billion Pounds ago was only 13 hours and 12 minutes,
and at the rate our government is spending it.
Stamp Duty, Tobacco Tax, Corporation Tax, Income Tax, Council Tax, Fishing License Tax, Petrol/Diesel Tax, Capital Gains Tax, Inheritance Tax (tax on top of tax), Alcohol Tax, V.A.T. Marriage License Tax, Property Tax, Service charge taxes, Social Security Tax, Vehicle License Registration Tax, Vehicle Sales Tax, Workers Compensation Tax.
And probably a few more not mentioned!
STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?
Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago...
And our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world.
We had absolutely no national debt...
We had the largest middle class in the world...
And Mum stayed home to raise the kids.
What happened?
'Politicians!'
I hope this goes around the UK at least 100 times

If you don't vote then you lose the right to complain. Every single person in this country should use their vote. Usually I have found that it's the people who don't vote who mouth off and complain the most.

Hope you had a good journey back and got plenty of layers on. I am sorry but it just pisses me off to be polite when someone cannot get off their butt and vote if they have a right to. It gets up my nose even more whenst they continue to pontificate what or should not be done - it does question the likes of a dim wit me, whether they have the right or not to put a cross on the ballot paper.

Well you should have taken the advice of an old girl - you should have stayed where you were - not as easy as that I know. Hope your little/big dog is well and excited to see you.
