  1. find your ex ,invite him back for a meal , hint that the ceilings falling down ,the thought of forgiveness (and maybe rumpy pumpy) will spur him to repair it ,once its done kick him out ,hey fixed ceiling AND a further turn of the screw ,what more could you want :D

  2. i blame "consultants" and "advisers" very highly paid "experts" who control the goverments :mad:

    portmouth are the same ,they HAVE to go ahead with that tower otherwise it would cost the taxpayers £4 million NOT to build it ,another fine decision by our socalled public servents :mad:

  3. TEN SHILLINGS that was a weeks wages in 1850 ,tell long dead victorians that and theyd spin in their graves (if they wern`t buried in a paupers mass grave ) because something goes to a charity does not make it worthy ,in a caring world there would be no need for charities the government would see the good they are doing and fund it ,give money to charities and you give the government the excuse to ignore them

  4. we had "star" traffic control system installed in our village ,the residents were "consulted" then their veiws were totally ignored ,the village councillors as usuall butt licked the higher etchelons who inturn butt licked theirs , at a cost of £58,000 (and i`v seen higher costs)a mini roundabout was installed at a "T" junction ,pinch points were installed at the local school (so you can buckle your wheels on unlit kerbs) the junction next to the twin bridges was changed so the traffic ran past the pub (cars park on both sides of the road )and one bridge was closed and the other traffic light controlled ,lots of grumbles followed in the local rag for over a year .

    NOW they have decided it was a waste of time and are going to restate the village to EXACTLY what it was before AT A COST OF £30,000 ,guess who i blame :mad:

    Aldershot on the other hand has gone mini roundabout mad (although roundabouts there are no signs ,just give way boards :confused: ) and are putting white lines every where ,marking bays where cars have always parked anyway, chevrons in the centre of the road which are so big you have to go on them to pass parked cars, whats going on :confused:

  5. or do as a farmer friend did ,he used to slave year in year out selling hay etc ,in the end he converted all his outbuildings to stables ,rented them and grazing for a nice income ,has lots of attractive girlies about ,still sells THEM hay AND sells their horses dung :D:D

  6. when i say dig a hole i was being kind :) what i meant is that i catapult a minion from the battlements where he falls (or she) their family bury them any worms found in the process are returned to the mansion , after a while several worm factories form at various places on the estate ,fed by 40p`s worth of ex employees , ofcourse they finally wear out but new "wormaries" can be procured for a nominal sum at the job centre :D

  7. wouldnt it make sense if tuna are getting that rare is to mix some dolphin in with them ,who would know ?

    it might catch on and instead of tuna, cans of dolphin could be sold ,seems the only usefull thing a dolphin could do , going bbrrrriiitt bbrrriiiittt whilst spitting water at all and sundry and heading a beachball seem hardly an excuse to take them out of the food chain :)

    they must be easy to catch ,just sound a horn under the water and they come (as demonstrated in flipper) as soon as their head appears thrust an explosive mini harpoon between their eyes and bobs yer uncle

  8. same as most reels ,its set below the breaking strain of the line so if moby heads for the horizon he can take line .....and not you :D lever drags are great you can have them on tight but if mr fish does a runner you can loosen it off before mr rod breaks ,a tip always on returning home wash the reel then loosen the drag right off ,it stops the plates "welding" together :)

  9. in the real world i agree but what happens when they run out of a workable and financially viable patch do they stop or does the patch grow smaller ,times have changed (hopefully) he started in the melee and companies wern`t so caring for their franchisee`s only in recovering the cost of their outlay
