C'est évident que tu n'as jamais été à Selhurst Park.. WTF is Selhurst Park? :confused: Can one fish there?

So speed does not kill. That sounds pretty counter intutive to me. Try this experiment. Find a block of flats. Jump head first out of a ground floor window, you will probably survive. Now try the same thing from a second floor window, and you will probably be seriosly injured. Once you have recoverd from that try the third floor, chances are you will die, but if not then when you recover, leap out of the fourt floor window and you will almost certainly die. The only difference is that the higher you jump, the faster your speed upon cranial impact with the deck, so speed kills. If I took a .303 shell and threw it at you you will probably live. The same missile being fired from a Lee Enfield will kill you. The only difference is the speed the bullet hits you. So how come speed does not kill? It seems obvious to me that the faster you are travelling when you have an accident, the less likely you are to survive, or am I missing something here? :confused: [ 20.

Nae bo'r ma man. A book well worthy of a plug.

Not reading anything at the moment but the last book I read was Sea Room by Adam Nicholson. It is about a group of 3 islands called the Shiants (Eilean an Tighe, Eilean Mhuire, Mol Mhor) in the Minch. An absolutely brilliant read, even if the blood that surges through your veins is English and not Scots like mine. Savage, cruel beauty. Même en France il n'y a aucun paradis comme ceci.

Well now, other sweaties may disagree, but they can make calvados, cider, andouille and boudin noir. Not to mention camember and bread. I'll trade that lot for haggis any day.

Elton. I hope I am not teaching Granny to suck eggs here, but are you sure that you don't have your SMTP server set up as an 'open relay'. This would allow spammers to send email using your mail server (so the mail would come from 'you') and there IS something you can do about it.

This is just plain daft. When are you guys going to wake up to the real world? I cannot believe that there are people who claim to be patriots and yet will let this country lose hundreds of millions in new investments. Not to mention the lower interest rates (and hence lower mortgage payments) they would pay if we joined the Euro. Why do you want Britian to lose out? Why just for once can't we get ourselves into the driving seat? Why do you always leave it to Germany in France to make the rules?

Because I will still have lots of family left here and I want whats best for them.

They do??? Not in my experiences as a kiosk owner!(I know that I live in Oz, but I hear the same from friends in the UK). The police come to me and tell me why it is pointless charging them because they were either p!ssed or under the influence of drugs, and I had given them a good hiding anyway, so it would be me who finished up in court if I took things any further. (Shades of Tony Martin). Great to see that salmon smolts are so well protected. I am sure that Tony Martin and many others in the UK will sleep more soundly in their beds knowing that! :mad: :mad: Different jurisdictions Tony Martin case: English LawThe smolt issue: Scots Law Salmon are heavily protected under Scots law

Andy is correct as far as Joe Public goes. If a water bailiff finds you with a smolt in your possesion alive or dead you might end up regretting it. I think that water bailiffs in Scotland still have the same powers of arrest as a policeman in Scotland. May I be so bold as to draw your attention to this document. Scan down to section 23. Pay particular attentionto paragraph 7. (7) A person who commits an offence under this section may be convicted on the evidence of one witness, and shall be liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. At the the moment level 3 on the standard scale is £1,000. Hardly 5 years in Barlinnie, but unpleasant all the same.

I would like to see as much freight as possible moved to rail. Not 'Just so I can travel at 70 mph', it would also mean less pollution.

Absolutely true. This is because one of the constituents of creosote (benzo-alpha-pyrene) is carcinogenic and is part of European Commission Directive 2001/90/EC. It has got NOTHING to do with the Euro.
