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.

hungary - in the hungarian constitution, so "they" were nothing to do with it

Hi,
Am not too hot on stock market e-magazines-any hard copy recommendations?

GB

Yup. It's a good TV programme. I'd buy a classic car anytime from that guy and so would wifey.

Lately, we've watched Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes seeing how the other half live (particularly the billionaire other half). We also watch 'Posh Pawn' but have gone orf 'Pawn Stars'.

We're also 'Wheeler Dealers' fans (as should anyone else be who owns a car and wifey is learning tons and tons of stuff about them)

Currently we're into 'Westworld' (sci-fi western) and 'The night of' which are holding us with the really good potential for their story-lines

And for the first time, after watching one and a half of the first two episodes, we've stopped watching 'The Apprentice' this year. What a bunch of tossers! Where do they get these twerp candidates from?

The Missing is also good (we think)

There is a story in the Mail this morning about Iraqi soldiers "apparently" torturing youths in Mosul. Together with lots of outraged comments. Now last time I looked the Iraqis and Kurds were still more than 5 miles from Mosul. But don't let the facts get in the way of a fabricated page filler.

ExecLine, yes that guy knows what he's talking about(classic cars),
Wheeler Dealers were on last night too, they went to Poland and bought
a Lamborgini.

Q. Would you buy a car from used car dealer Mike Brewer?

A. Anybody would buy a car from Mike Brewer. He has such a high reputation.

I'm not so sure about trying to sell him one though. Mine is very soon going to be for sale and it's in damn near perfect condition. He always wants a motor with something wrong with it, that's going to be dead easy to fix.

Yes but he's got a very good mechanic(WD'S, Mike Brewer)LOL!

Yawn...What's your point Hays? We are far from a GE.
Of more interest:
A Labour source said "progressive" leaders from across the EU would be invited to a dinner with the shadow cabinet, followed by a conference featuring speakers from "parts of society that have not had their voices heard in the Brexit debate" including business and trade unions. Suggestions are invited as to what will be on the menu. Dinner menu that is, because the rest will be totally irrelevant. My suggestion is that they serve Abbot and the Thornbury woman last otherwise they will have to call Pizza Hut again for a refill.

UK police arrest teenager on terrorism offences over item found on London train

LONDON, Oct 21 (Reuters) - British police said on Friday they had arrested a teenager under terrorism laws following the discovery of a "suspicious item" on a London underground train near the Canary Wharf financial district a day earlier.

Officers discharged a stun gun during the arrest of the 19-year-old in north London who was detained on suspicion of preparing terrorism acts, London's Metropolitan Police (MPS) said in a statement.

"Officers are keeping an open mind regarding any possible motive. They are not looking for anyone else in relation to this investigation at this stage," the statement added.

The suspect item, which is still being forensically examined, was found by staff on Thursday morning on a train at North Greenwich station in east London near Canary Wharf and close to the O2 music venue.

The station was evacuated and bomb squad officers carried out a controlled explosion to make the item safe. The investigation into the incident is being led by London's Counter Terrorism Command.

Britain is on its second-highest threat level of "severe", meaning an attack is considered highly likely. London's police chief said in July that it was a case of "when, not if" there would be an attack.

High visibility patrols, including armed officers, will be deployed at transport hubs following Thursday's incident to reassure the public, the MPS said

PUTIN a man with balls
OBAMA a man with slit a gut less leader . but a leader by name only a coward

the world is in a mess down to weak and poor governments , only interested in their own ends not real leaders , we must return to having men with guts to run governments not wimps

.

I wonder who wrote the below and of whom does it remind me?


"Fascism was an explosion against intolerable conditions, against remediable wrongs which the old world failed to remedy. It was a movement to secure national renaissance by people who felt themselves threatened with decline into decadence and death and were determined to live, and live greatly."


"Together in Britain we have lit a flame that the ages shall not extinguish. Guard that sacred flame my brother Blackshirts until it illuminates Britain and lights again the Paths of Mankind."

America and the rest of the west stand by and allow millions to be killed,

after the last war the powers said they would never let this happen again

2016 and it is worse than in 1945 .

the world as no leaders with balls or guts

the USA now a third rate shithole

sadam gadaffi should of been left alone they were better leaders than the scum now

hey rosie, it's time for your medication :-)

Canada walks out of trade talks with EU
Canada's trade minister walked out of talks with Belgium's French-speaking regional government, drawing a last-minute attempt to rescue the free-trade deal between the EU and Canada to a temporary close.
Speaking after fruitless negotiations, Chrystia Freeland said: "It seems obvious for me, and Canada, that the EU is not able to have an international agreement even with a country which has such European values as Canada, and even with a country so kind, and so patient as Canada"
