  1. You forgot Racine torture ,were intrepid standards ever sought after .Saying that when an uncle gave me his when he bought a supreme you couldn't wipe the smile off my face and the plans to use it. Nice to see you post again ,old farts certainly welcome
  2. It's far worse than that there's the "always" and the "traditional" voter that lack brains . We have always voted ........(usually like generations before them) the proud working 'class' ( pronounced like ass) And the Tory heartland of the south who think they are different and not 'working class" (pronounced like arse) And those that think liberal but act puritanical Yes voters are insane they repeatedly do the same think trying to get it to come out differently .with the party system you can never get democracy you get one set of two ,when one set goes out the other set gets in and all the time they get away with it your vote is wasted . There's the chance of a difference but those parties with Britain and Brexit or regaing power from WEF or the UN or WHO or the EU will bicker and fight ,the heads wanting to keep their power instead of joining and not splitting each others vote . The best way to get democracy is ditch the bastards and vote on everything of importance online with postal voting for those that refuse or to stupid to use technology (or refuse to as if it's the devil incarnate) it's not impossible let a score of elected form sides for the mundane stuff and let the masses have a voice not a party with agendas
  3. I think the Tories ARE labour but a little bit more fluffy ,they certainly are not Tories of the past . I guess their manifesto is to not get elected at the next election so labour have to sort England out ,even labour will be hard pressed to make it worse but going by the past....... Perhaps the "new" parties are hoping they DONT get in ,unfortunately they split each others vote but if they got together with Farage at the head they could do well but unfortunately well meanings and getting Brexit really done won't help them solving the sorry mess of the last 30 years when it all started going down hill. As I used to say to the old lanc pilot now sadly gone we have seen the best of it it's all downhill from here we will end up with a Tory 1984 or worse a labour 1917 .or worse a caliphate under one of the new guests arriving daily at dover whilst the Tories and labour tell us how they can do better then ignore their own words and do far worse
  4. You sure are !you quoted your own blank quote to reply to yourself. YOU are the idiot your not surrounded by them https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/8d8dd5skfg554hzudoxy1/Screenshot_20231016-120935.png?rlkey=y6r9memwzmxpt1o9axa9hzz1i&dl=0 I don't know why I posted the evidence ,going by experience your too thick to go back and remove it so you don't look stupid to the world
  5. If "holiday" is sitting in hot sun drinking **** and eating greasy snacks some English hating dago has spat in I won't bother thanks .
  6. Whhhhaaaat youl be telling me you can't eat dolphins next
  7. Bread is very underated I have caught every UK fish I have ever caught on bread at some time , yes even pike and perch I presume they see it sinking and grab it instinctively? As for mullet they are finiky at the best of times and catching them on anything hard ,I once saw one heading for the hills seeing a small feather drifting down towards the surface never mind a bit of bread ,only ever caught two small ones as I don't fish for them since I was a kid desperate to try to catch them in port Seton harbour long ago
  8. Don't have a clue about fighters I am too busy listening to his commentary
  9. No worse, his is made of steel and only one tab,theoretically you could drill a hole and bolt it together once you want it to hold proper weight I spotted a set of dexion shelves in a skip up the road ,they were narrow only about a foot wide with steel shelves .I bagged it but realised they were to long to go where I wanted them . Being steel I cut off 6" from all the shelves with a angle grinder and bolted it back together ,I have no doubt if you did have a chieften engine it would hold it
  10. This guy has a good sense of humour
  11. First glance I thought the first fish was pouting wearing lipstick ,how about instructing the scores you catch to swim down to Tilford so I can try and catch them
  12. Yes growing slowly ,once you get all the main ones the rarer ones come far slower .I started collecting intrepids 23 years ago but still have approx 25% of reels and boxes to find .The first two reels (I have one) I will never get the boxes all my fastly dying intrepid workers cannot remember what the boxes looked like they had labels but just a brown cardboard box as far as I can find out they were sold by a couple of tackle shops so may have relabeled them as their own as many did then) so they won't be complete and there's a few gladding boxes I have yet to find but the hardest are the late ones ,by then there were far better reels for the same money so sales slumped ,most were just reboxed old stock trying to look new.
  13. I have dexion shelving in my shed (the gkids call it my shop) very strong but due to the weight on it (mostly many flavours of fizzy drinks cans ((bubblegum flavour is the favourite this month )) it's sagged trapping my tool box . I don't keep tackle outside (safe area but I don't take chances) so live in the loft but my intrepid collection lives in the bedroom (Mrs loves waking up to see them .......not!) In my corner and my pc desk is my work bench so the Mrs punishes me by "tidying" everytime I play on it (usually when I'm in the shed hunting for some special tool to fix something Something going on in the shed all was fine yesterday but for some reason the window now has the most spider web I have ever seen I think a family has moved in on, I have to spray round the cameras tomorrow (anyone with CCTV will know the problem ) so they will get a bit aswell . The buggers have acreas all round the house but they just love annoying me ,i dont bother them in the fields why do they find the need to dangle on my cameras setting off the motion sensing I had to shut the gate so the foxes didn't do it now it's bloody spiders at least the door bell is left alone so it gives its little beep when someone creeps up the garden .Once winter comes things improve. I have put a brace on the back stretch of dexion but I cannot do the front edge or the drawers won't slide out I may have to screw wood to it obviously the 3/4" thick shelves are to bendy. My son bought some off some shopping channel pretty simple to instal but badly designed ,you bash the horizontal bits into the uprights with a mallet but it's only supported with a little tab that's pressed out that locates into a slot .it seems ok but I wouldn't trust it with any real weight on it unlike dexion and it's bolts and braces . PS my Mrs would "tidy" the **** out of your mancave ,you wouldn't find a bloody thing
  14. There's always the ones who inwardly gloat about others problems .My mother in-law was told she had a year max left when she must have been in her 30's ,she died in her 80's ! I wonder now how many are prematurely dying due to government mistakes in COVID and the present petty union interferences ,they don't care no-one ever gets punished they just say " lessons will be learnt" then forget it instantly and get a pay rise and people don't keep pursuing them to get them punished IE they may eventually get sacked at one place then get a job with more money down the road.
  15. Never used a feeder ,I bought a bag of 20 mixed size ones (those old style ones with the lead strip along one side) from Gerry's of Wimbledon ? (Think that was the mail order of the time) but to date never used one ,never even used a PVA bag I am far to tight to throw bait away . Unfortunately all attempts to cure hook wounds from maggots have failed so I cannot even use the last maggot on the hook and bandage it up for next time An unfortunate bit of "just in case "thinking that went wrong
  16. I am a compulsive sorter and a just in case person. Rather than forgetting things I now have several complete sets of tackle which contains everything needed ,long gone are the days of borrowing bits from a box and forgetting to put it back and raging on the bank. If I go carp fishing everything I need is in one big box and rod bag ,everything needed for piking is in another holdal and seatbox and my tiddler bashing stuff is in another .Sea fishing is the same one complete set for shore and one for boat. It's getting so bad even my metal detectors have their own set in their carrying bags (digger ,finds bag and pinpointer)and every ordinary bag I have has a set of painkillers bog roll and plasters and a silicone folding cup for the pain killers to fizz into (effervescent co-codamols)" just in case" I know if I grab a bag for anything everything is there and believe me if I use anything it's not put away until it's replaced . Tidying my shed is a different matter to get something put away I need to move something else so it goes round and round first clearing one part by cluttering up another ,I love sorting things into boxes but those boxes take up space I just don't have Just in case works ,we didn't need to buy anything ifood wise n the first lock down for two months (we had enough for 6) because I had stockpiled food "just in case" .hopefully there's another one or the year or so stockpiled will taste yucky when it's needed lol not gone as far as sorting the food store how would you do it by name or can colour it's not simple
  17. They hide bad news if at all possible ,who's paid enough to tell people really bad news ?. Perhaps only the hospital vicar hoping for late converts leaving something in their wills will do it At least with bad news you have time to prepare your family rather than suddenly dying in a week . Bill my deceased head bailiff finally relented (after months of me telling him to get medical help for his bad back) and visited the doc got an invite for a scan 3 days later and was dead in a month .He never told his Mrs how Ill he was so she was unprepared for life after him .Luckily his son lived up the road so could help but my Mrs would be buggered ,I have a note book I keep updated in the safe with everything I can think of I do in everyday life but she has no clue to and I mean everyday stuff her epilepsy wipes her short term memory every fit she has so it needs to be on paper even bad news is good news sometimes What's best ?news that's bad for you or no news that's bad for your loved ones once the bad news is really really bad news when it's to late to do anything once they realise something amiss and you croak two days later . IE I changed the filters in the water filter yesterday and realised unless you realised how it works you wouldn't have a clue changing them in the future .I marked the pipes that need to be removed to get it out and where they plug in and where each filter goes so with the diagram I made that lives with the replacement filters there's a chance she could change them and I also made reminders in my shared calender so the dates are noted .She probably won't bother but I am a " just incase guy" it's better to waste MY time than do nothing and punish others for not trying to help them once I have gone in the skip
  18. I tend to keep quiet when they have a needle in their hand . Had my CT scan yesterday ,unlike the last visit the place was packed and obviously confusion about as a porter who spoke very bad English may have brought the wrong patient? .Despite asking the obviously confused old lady in the bed several times her details her answer (all times the same) differed from what they expected .On questioning the porter if he was sure it was the patient he stormed off flinging the door to leave despite the notice telling users to press the green button to open it and disapeared (later seen smoking a fag under the sign saying no smoking by the entrance as we left) The old lady was obviously sentient enough to raise her eyebrows at me and waved back when i waved across to her so I suspect she have the correct answer and the fault lay up in the ward she came from rather than her not knowing who she was. The radiographer (or what ever CT scanner drivers are called ? )Seemed to be a one man band ,a nice black man with a great sense of humour as I accused him of taking my blood to sell to vampires outside the entrance and to be careful if I faint because there's no chance of him lifting me back up so roll me into the corner until I comeback to my senses .The cannulae was in place before I realised it none of that if it doesn't work the first time stick it in again until it is .After asking my my details again (the third time since collecting me from the waiting room 12 feet away) he led me into the next room where the scanner was and asked again then I laid down and the scanner started whirring then obviously the iodine was injected and suddenly I got hot starting from my arm .Not unpleasant but weird I told him to increase to full power as there was a lot of fat to get through which set him off again and a minute later the whirring increased and the bed starting started moving after a couple of holding my breath for ten seconds it was over ,8 minutes (I forgot to remove my watch but I had both arms above my head ) not the 30 in the leaflet and I was taken back to the previous room ,obviously the post scan setup didn't use the black bloke so I sat for 15 minutes waiting for a silent nurse to come from a staff room (staff only on the door) and again ask my details and then remove the cannular and sent me on my way ,no smiles no small talk not even a gold star for being such a brave boy a vast difference from the smiling chatty first guy . Still not got any feedback from the biopsies from the bum camera so won't expect the results from this for a little while I presume. Another annoying thing was once I installed the frimley app I had to fill in a form with the details and then again when I checked in to see if it was going ahead in the morning but on checking in there was an exact same paper form to fill in ,the attractive receptionist laughed when I asked her if she though looking at me I was too old to use modern tech ,she said it was normal but didn't answer why the online version wasn't used . In all an ok visit as usual at frimley
  19. I can see old reels of film reused to grab what was ordinary boring everyday scenes to pick out individual frames which no doubt occur unseen to extract the odd ones for their comedic value , I have no doubt every reel once processed (theres 25 to 30 every second so plenty of them) had hundreds of what was before hundrum worthless rubbish will be announced as some sort of miracle shot patiently waited for by the photographer as if he was waiting for the shot for half his life as it seems to show a skill rather than an accident. Even a blind man can get a bulls eye on a dart board with enough darts there's no skill just luck
  20. All seemed fine when I had the camera ,in fact there was more staff than patients .There's a group of union controlled doctors and nurses who stand around causing the population to think the NHS has ground to a halt but most are working doing their jobs . I guess the pan bangers are such a group while the rest raise their eyebrows and do their jobs. My missed appointment Wednesday was at 9.30 pm something unheard of so obviously money above the norm is found to pay most probably private companies to work unusual hours as most high cost tech is not owned or operated by the NHS but leased and installed in hospitals along with their operators. On actual visits to the doctor's all the staff seem to be there but the waiting room is empty which doesn't make sense ,one conversation from the receptionist I hear was there is no vacant appointments today but aside me and one other the waiting room was empty and in the half hour we had been waiting (actually so early the machine didn't see half an hour ahead to log you were there) no-one had gone in so bugger knows what the staff was up to the only person seemingly doing anything was the receptionist ,most of the calls are callers starting to get angry because you cannot get anything unless you use one of the many apps the practice uses instead of carrying on as they did pre COVID which worked just fine imho The non ever used 32" TV and dedicated pc has gone the apple tablet that was hidden behind a cardboard sign in the hall is missing the tablet and it's clone that couldn't be used in the waiting room has gone and the screen that advertised various local firms in a loop has now gone blank but is still switched on .so the NHS isn't short of cash by any means another strange thing is 90% of all the posters in the waiting room have gone and only ones refering to the NHS are left ,the rack containing a score of pamphlets concerning various medical problems has gone I guess to not encourage you to bother the doctors when you notice the symptoms on the pamphlet you appear to have .
  21. I had a telephone appointment with the diabetes nurse .We have a pattern where I take glucose reading for the week leading to it and then I send the Apps results to the surgery (with that hard to find email address) and the pdf is put on the system for her to use to base my meds on for the next 6 months. Call came and the pdf hadn't been put on the system despite having a whole morning to do it (how long does it take to right click on a pdf and drag it to my details) she disapeared for ten minutes (the whole time the appointment is supposed to be) they can't find it it 'was' there but has disapeared (they obviously 'cut' not 'copied' an amateurish mistake). I spent five minutes reading out the details from my app so the nurse could judge what to do .I did my bit but they couldn't be bothered to employ people to do theirs . I am not sure what's going on in the world ,since COVID it's gone to pot ! is there something in the water it's not only millennials going mad it's hitting all ages .luckily our water is very clean I suggest you filter yours before it hits you! There is something going on perhaps some drug in the water to control the masses and it's not just about punishing you to force you to buy a bonfire sorry en EV car! And sit in your front room huddling round a candle while they live off the fat of the land.Theres a worldwide agender going on with the governments willingly installing carrots and sticks (in the case of the UK BIG sticks) to force it in ,either a powerful alien species has got Intouch 'advising' us to mend our ways or big money and power is involved ,there's a toss up between the two or both! As the WEF said you will own nothing and be happy ,we know it's we will own nothing while they own everything and be very very happy .
  22. Had a phone call today from frimley park hospital ,hi are you attending your CT scan tonight as we haven't received your online questionair which we need to process you. I told them I didn't know a scan was in process (a follow up to my bum camera last week ,it was mentioned by GP she wanted me to have one ) I said the NHS app hadn't alerted me with a notification an appointment had been made .Didn't you get a letter or email from the app .The NHS app ? No she said with a strange laugh our my frimley app !?! Never heard of it I said I only have the evergreen app (the one used by the GP for practice use) and the NHS app why would I need another one ? She said with a laugh all the departments have one . I installed their app and there was the appointment and the form she needed . Anyway I had no way of getting there and back at 9.30 pm the last bus is at 6pm so I had to remake the appointment for next week It seems the NHS is once more not talking to patients but also to themselves ,why so many apps? why not just the NHS one why are departments relying on patients having their app for messages but not mentioning they need it .will our phones soon be full of apps for each department instead of one all encompassing app like the NHS one . Forgot to mention even if you have the evergreen app which used to be used for online consultations (you cannot just get an appointment now) you need another app (which I deleted because it refuses to work on my phone ) to make an appointment to get a time to submit your online consultation which could be days away ,you in essence make a queue to join another queue to send in a form to join the queue in the waiting room if it's deemed by someone you need it The app is called patches the screenshot is from the part of the surgery you used to fill in for an online consultation ,what the hell are old or illiterate (or both) doing ? https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/r9oxw5t8l3t5x8l71k4je/Screenshot_20230928-170218.png?rlkey=bgn3zaqv3qoqbkpnly1l0t17c&dl=0 Your not going to fit all these apps on your big button extra loud home phone it's crazy The surgery is also very clever hiding it's email address making it very difficult to submit all these bloody BP and glucose tests they keep asking for . Annoyingly both evergreen and the surgery have no problem telling me I need 28 COVID and flue shots but making it impossible to message them back ,we can't have these annoying patients disturbing whatever they do today
  23. Been watching this channel ,strange you don't see it on the big four ,good old khan turning my birth place into a third world country https://youtube.com/@londonukstreetnews?si=VUCg64IHJrD5E1Pd Strange the English language has so many xx in the words it's as if some are censored ,spotted one where an immigrant raped a girl and as the father spoke not only was the word RAPE changedin the subtitles the word coming out of his mouth was aswell .Spotted youths using the word " unalived' aswell to get around the censor .
  24. Strange how fish seem to know the opportune moment to take the bait ,rolling a fag ,pouring tea or some mechanical hitch and away they go . Ofcourse the worse time is when you have been sitting biteles for hours and you get a fish on and suddenly the other rod gets a bite and you need three arms and then an hour to pick up all the split shot you were sorting on your lap when it all happened I remember one time my reel was off the rod after one of those terrible sliding screw reel seats of old came loose and ofcourse I got a bite ,how the heck do you reel in with a rod in one hand and the reel in the other ,it felt like nice fish before it snapped the line and buggered off
