      Did you know BoJo has 6 kids and so that makes him an environmental terrorist.

        Great story there Les. 🙂

        Gotta say you are a bit more Bike cultured than me. I guess thats because of my age so my bike culture is Japanese. Hey Ho.

          Quote: Gilera Nordwest 600.

          I had no idea they made such advancements. For me a  Gilera was a skool leavers bike like the one Dave posted up.

          Yeah, We some times go get our fresh from Leicester MKT. G Linekers (foot ball star ) dad had a stall there..

          Yesterday I got: 4x corn on the cob, 3x obergene, 1xKG of blue berries, 4x fresh fig, 3x punnets strawberries, 1xlbs of runner beans and 4x sticks of fresh sugarcane for £7 smashing supermarket prices.

          Oh, is it even possible to get fresh sugarcane from a supermarket?

            Funny how simple things become so complicated. I had a similar conflict with Direct vacuum cleaners. Make no mistake, do not go anywhere near there offerings and watch out in the small print on Amazon and e-bay, etc who is providing the product.

                    Would you believe it. I received a letter today from the DVLA asking me to go back to truck driving.

                    One more thing about opening the boarders to Europe. Our minimum wage is massive and the foreigners took all the jobs off the kids. Now every one thinks they have to go to university and stop in halls of residence and get into massive debt and become over qualified and then cannot get a job and so a degree becomes worth what?

                    He he. 🙂

                    Talk about the butterfly effect.

                      When I first became a lorry driver when I was in my 20’s, I was treated like an engineer.

                      When Labour opened the boarders to immigration and the foreign lorry drivers started to poor in it did not take long until UK lorry drivers where treated like door mats.

                      Here is what happened to me.

                      At the time I worked for Brake Brothers with guaranteed overtime even if I did not do it and more often that not, did not.

                      Final salary pension.

                      Free shares often @£1000

                      Free fancy food stuffs.

                      Then that all went by the by.

                      Foreign lorry drivers where provided with housing and so in being paid, also paid the company back for accommodation.

                      pay rises stopped.

                      In addition managers saw what companies where doing (nation wide monkey see) and so jumped on the band wagon by providing accommodation for foreign lorry drivers cheaper than the company and in the process systematically looking for any and every opportunity to dismiss a UK lorry driver from there jobs. This happened to me whist boxing clever managers profiteered from the foreign drivers.

                      leaving the only place to go for UK lorry drivers to go self employed, to try and maintain standard of living.

                      Foreign lorry driver saw the benefits of this to get money home and jumped on it.

                      Again pay spiraled down.

                      I am so glad we left Europe and I blame Labour for all the shit we are currently in from the past 15 years..

                      Starma makes me want to piss. He is clueless.

                        Well. Ive decided to go back to work.

                        The planned idea in retirement was to go to Australia until Xmas and see most of my village of my age who emigrated there.

                        That obvs no go, Auz gov, corona.

                        And others we looked at until Xmas, maybe: India, Barley, and so on and all a no go.

                        Ive been getting under the misses feet and so I’m off back to the grind on Monday.

                        Its funny when I look around at the world now and see peeps lives why in there 50,s/60.s they live in a 3up, 3down with 2 new cars on the front is because they have now where to go except to be a bigger consumer.

                        Looks like I will be getting gold teeth, a bigger monitor and whopping hifi speakers. Hey ho.

                        Eye on the prize maybe Australia next year.

                          Quote: Today we deprecate lard, then it was an essential part of the war time diet.

                          I never really liked beef dripping sandwiches when i was a kid in the 70’s. They was kinda OK. But I don’t think I could do one now. Unless my mam made it. But she just does TV dinners now out the freezer. Cannot think which is worse. 🙂

                          It did come as a surprise when I founds out that Americans eat or used to eat on average 250KG of meat per year.

                          The latest is that the kids are switching to vegi burgers?

                          Arf arf. 🙂

                            He he, there is a strong tangent to metro exodus Sam’s story there. A funny stealth game well worth a visit.

                            But, yeah, I also find out that the worlds Aquifers are drying out at an alarming rate.

                            So it looks like no lessons have been learned from the Aral sea.

                              I was thinking the other day about the last ice age. 10k years ago. When the med/sea would have been much lower if not just lakes.

                              I wonder how many lost cities are down there.

                              I guess the latest geological tool is the satellite. with them they can see all sorts of lost stuff where people settled.

                              It would be good if they pointed one at the med to see what they could uncover like all the lost cites in northern Africa they have found. Now deep under the desert.

                                Some really good points made in this thread. You know, knowledge is power/ enlightenment or something. So thanks for sharing

                                I will talk to the kids today about xenophobia. Clearly they need to know about it.

                                  So IRAN. I was pretty much brought up in a nut shell that Arabs are a bunch of dirty arse stuffers etc.

                                  Then I find out the whole world owes IRAN a great deal for giving us modern society and so on.

                                  Blokes like Alf Garnet etc are responsible for seeding many young peoples minds with his bollocks or so called humor.

                                  I does make me smile when I hear people say I’m not a racist. Like it then gives them a platform to go off on one.

                                  But yeah, I think I am comfortable in saying I am not a racist. I guess like most things it depends on how much pressure we are under to start mouthing off on some type of ism or false science.

                                    It did come as a surprise that they need natural gas to manufacture carbon dioxide.

                                    So am I right in just thinking that they just burn the bugger to get co2? when the atmosphere is saturated with it!

                                    Lads?

                                      Sounds like you have spend some time in Gaza. That place is a future shock movie right now. Well has been for years.

                                      I guess the next big question is now that china has clocked how good the rest of the world are at developing vaccines. When and what else are they going to release on us. Will they be targeting the old and infirm again or fertility next time. Oh, my bollocks have gone black and fell off.

                                        @ EDP. The net result is that politicians would like nothing better than to kick the whole mess into the long grass and hope that it all goes away.

                                        He he. 🙂 I’m sure they would as normal.

                                        EDP you got those rss feeds well tuned. ty for the heads up on that.

                                        @JCD. As far as I know all will go well with who ever takes over? But for sure if I am given a cool down period to shop around and find cheaper then I will switch. Pretty sure it will get messy then.
