I can hear the cockrels crowing even at this hour.

Gasoline Alley - Rod Stewart

How ungrateful can these people be? It has been reported on the news that the influx of migrants in Hungary have thrown away food and water given to them because of the action Hungarian authorities have taken in erecting fences, closing their border, etc. They are further DEMANDING that they be allowed to continue their migration to wherever they want in the face of Hungary declaring that Serbia (where they currently are)is a "safe place" for them. Surely they should be happy that they have escaped from Syria, Iraq et al and have been allowed into Europe in the first place? What do you think?

There's never any continuity in banking circles/processes. I am with Barclays and had to show another form of ID at my branch if I wanted to withdraw more than ?50, and this even though they knew me!!! When I came to ED. the branch in L.L. allowed me to withdraw ?600 on one occasion without anything further than my debit card and tapping in my PIN, and this before they got to know me!!!

Down in the Tube Station at Midnight - The Jam

Agree, Otta. I also wonder at times if many people have seen a full-blooded (no pun intended) bull-fight. I would assume they are, or have been, available on you-tube, I have not looked. I was given a couple many years ago by a friend who had moved to Spain and was visiting (these were old VHS tapes!!), and I found it absolutely disgusting. The reality was nothing like the images that we used to be fed back in the day. The way those animals are tortured and a lot of the time even at the "climax" (such as I'm sure it would be descibed), the end is not clean and swift. Truly is utterly appalling.

Otta In the news today, 7 people have been killed since the begining of July (four of which were this w/e) during the annual bull running festivals in Spain. Not strictly the same I suppose as a bull getting its own back on a matador or a picador, but nevertheless if people will torment animals for sport.......
