Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

 

Mathew 4:19

Grangers law : anything i say will  turn out the opposite or not happen at all!

Life insurance? you wont enjoy a penny!

"To compel a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of opinions which he disbelieves and abhors, is sinful and tyrannical." Thomas Jefferson

In government speak,

 

"To help to make the right choice" == "To force to do as they are told"

"It would send out the wrong message" == "We're wrong, we know we're wrong, you know we're wrong, but we can't back down on this now"

"Consultation" == "We'll listen to what you say, then ignore it"

Deserves the response "Yes, but only if I can then beat you around the head and body with a cast iron frying pan until you stop moving"

 

Seems fair to me.

The two ronnies. :D

Edited by barry luxton

Free to choose apart from the ones where the trust poked their nose in. Common eel. tope. Bass and sea bream. All restricted.


New for 2016 TAT are the main instigators for the demise of the u k bass charter boat industry, where they went screaming off to parliament and for the first time assisting so called angling gurus set up bass take bans with the e u using rubbish exaggerated info collected by ices from anglers, they must be very proud.

Upgrade, the door has been closed with regards to anglers being linked to the e u superstate and the failed c f p. So TAT will no longer need to pay monies to the EAA anymore as that org is no longer relevant to the u k . Goodbye to the europeon anglers alliance and pathetic restrictions from the e u.

Angling is better than politics, ban politics from angling.

Consumer of bass. where is the evidence that the u k bass stock need angling trust protection. Why won't you work with your peers instead of castigating them. They have the answer.

Recipie's for mullet stew more than welcomed.

Angling sanitation trust and kent and sussex sea anglers org delete's and blocks rsa's alternative opinion on their face book site. Although they claim to rep all.

new for 2014. where is the evidence that the south coast bream stock need the angling trust? Your campaign has no evidence. Why won't you work with your peers, the inshore under tens? As opposed to alienating them? Angling trust failed big time re bait digging, even fish legal attempted to intervene and failed, all for what, nothing.

Looks like the sea angling reps have been coerced by the ifca's to compose sea angling strategy's that the ifca's at some stage will look at drafting into legislation to manage the rsa, because they like wasting tax payers money. That's without asking the rsa btw. You know who you are..

Mine are mostly work related as in all the management BS we have to listen to, current favourites are :-

 

360-degree feedback

An exercise in box-ticking

Bring to the table

By close of play

Going great guns

It's a finely balanced situation, weighted heavily toward the customer

Jump through hoops

Keep me in the loop

Lets park that offline for a moment

Lets take a blue-sky approach

Low hanging fruit

Out of the loop

Pro-active

Take it to the next level

There is an issue around

Think big

Think outside the box

We need to get on the same page

We need to touch base offline

We really need to push the envelope on this one

We're on a 3 way street here

What can you bring to the table?

 

I mean, WTF do most of them actually mean !!!

 

i really,really,could not work with people.so far up their own @rse,that would come out with crap like that.

sorry,i wouldnt last 1 hour.

God, theres two words that REALLY do my head in.

 

The first is `devastated`.

 

No longer are folks upset. No more do cars and house get destroyed. No, we need to most extreme word to use to cover the situation. Spin it up to the max, make it sound as bad as it can possibly be.

 

Devastation is Hiroshima..........think about it.

 

 

The second one is the word (and it grieves me to type this) `fantastic`.

 

Listen to Talksport, not one person can manage to go more than a couple of minutes without using the word. It is probably the number one most overused word in the land and unfortunately its a diesase which is spreading globally. Its actual meaning comes from `fantasy` so its used out of context to try and represent something good.

 

It REALLY makes me cringe to hear it and I end up swearing at the radio or the TV. My mates know better than to use the word in my presence these days!

 

Its probably a bit of middle age dementia but who cares eh! I`ve been aware of the massive overuse of the word for years and I still can`t accept it!

 

Take ten minutes and just listen for the repetitive over use.................
