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.

It hasn't for me. Maybe you are not sitting up straight (possible leaning quite a bit left).

Probably your sixth glass of gin Stan.

Ah back to normal now we are on another page.

At least Corbyn faces up to his own party, while Wavey Dave ducks and weaves his own backbenchers, while pumping himself up and trying to get himself noticed on the stage abroad.

He is now leading a minority government!

Has Georgie Boy rewritten his budget yet?

Put the LSD away stan !!

Stan,

There does seem a problem when posting sometimes.

I get duplications which I put down to me being cack-handed.

perhaps coffee and sandwiches will do the trick eh?

certainly mustn't do anything to upset those IS chappies, 'cos they'll get very cross and beastly indeed, and then what will do?
put forward some mug to refill their coffee mugs?

"Put the LSD away stan !!".. it's all in shares JTB so I can't.

seems to me that fred's solution would just be nice cosy chats with IS (with coffee and sandwiches of course), asking them not to be naughty boys and what nice pressie would they like to persuade them to agree

At the end of the day there will have to be "talk TalK" to settled the multitude of problems, what I prefer is actions prior to that which don't escalate the number of innocent people killed for other people's satisfaction preceding the talking.

Nor do I want to see the armament financiers and "gun runners" moving the "money" on to another event.

Putting the actions down to being "pragmatic" and "the way it is" and if I don't do it somebody else will, so why shouldn't I profit.

Benefitting from the sacrifice of other people's lives.

"Not putting their own lives on the line but playing war games from their own armchairs and cheering the others on."

I would like to see "those" concerned in the atrocities, at the Hague trying to defend themselves.

so what are you ACTUALLY proposing in your "actions prior to talk-talk"?

It looks like the terrorists killed and arrested this morning may have been about to commit a bombing today. There could be others about to do the same. In the 'ticking bomb' scenario, do torture the ones arrested today?

I am not in favour of the death penalty, but the French do have an event method of dealing with treason. They guillotine you face up.

torture?
good heavens no ...... merely some friendly questioning over a cup of coffee with steak frites on the house at lunchtime

A mathematician, a physicist, and an engineer are all found guilty of treason and are sentenced to beheading by guillotine.

On the day of the triple execution, they are brought to be beheaded. The priest blesses the execution, saying all is done in God's name, and the King orders the three executed.

The mathematician is to be killed first, and the executioner gives him two options: would he like a hood on or off, and would he like to be face up or face down.

So the mathematician says "Well, they all arrive at the equivalent state of beheading, so it's an arbitrary choice. I suppose I'll take no hood and face down, since it's the simplest solution."

So they lock him into the guillotine, the executioner drops the blade... and it stops inches from his neck.

The priest exclaims "It's a sign from God! This man is innocent! He must be let free!"

The King agrees, pardons the mathematician, and lets him go.

Next up to be killed is the physicist. He is given the same options: hood on or off; face up or face down.

So the physicist thinks, and says "Well, I've spent my whole life looking up at the stars and studying them... but it's broad daylight. I will take the hood to make it dark like night, and face up towards the Heavens."

So they lock him into the guillotine, the executioner drops the blade... and it stops inches from his neck.

The priest exclaims again "It's a sign from God! This man is innocent! He must be let free!"

The King agrees, pardons the physicist, and lets him go.

Finally, it's the engineer's turn to face the guillotine. He's given the same options: hood on or off; face up or down.

The engineer ponders, and says "I've spent my whole life studying machines and mechanical devices. If I am to be killed by the most efficient killing machine of all time, then I will look at its workings while I die! Hood off and face up!"

So they lock him into the guillotine, and the executioner is about to drop the blade, when the engineer exclaims: "I see the problem!"

Lordy, lordy, you have posted something interesting.

Keep it up or perhaps not!

JEZZA JEZZA JEZZA JEZZA !!!!!!!! :0)

Wavey Dave is dithering again.

Put is right foot in, take his right foot out and vote it all about?

A man of political conviction!
