> Learn how to ride a bike


giggirl, Southwark Council were funding free cycling lessons a while back (they may still)...check them out...before the dosh runs out. Otherwise...just buy a bike and teach yourself...I did... at the grand old age of about 30! Or take up PGC's offer. There's nothing to it. Good Luck xxx

To play the piano like the guy in B Bumble and the Stingers 'Nut Rocker',


and the banjo as good as the weird geezer in 'Deliverance'....


Having a twenty eight inch waist and 6' 3" tall.


Seeing the Northern lights.


Experiencing a glockenspectre.


Discovering a pair of Peregrine falcons nesting in the garden.


Being fluent in Mandarin, Russian, German, French, Spanish, Arabic and Glaswegian.


Knowing and understanding the complete works of Shakespear.


Receiving something good from a brown envelope.


Spending an evening with Peter Ustinov, Charles Dickens and Ho Chi Min.


Find a soul mate whilst I can still do it.

Oh my goodness...just seen all of this...


Ruffers, my apologies, I too didn't see the bit about tickets in your post...did you add it as an edit? only I haven't had a chance to go back until now...but thanks very much for that.


And sandperson, equally to you...thanks very much for the link.


Last night I received a real surprise of a PM from another lovely forumite (Mr. X) who "knows a man who can get tickets"...there are no guarantees...but he is going to try for me - which is really kind. My fingers are crossed. But if his efforts lead to nothing, then I shall definitely try both your links. So MASSIVE thanks to all three of you. I am so so excited, it's unbelievable.

The Kop eh? Liverpool...the only serious rival to Man. U, in my opinion.;-) Now that would be some match...I may well take you up on your offer next season...thanks Annasfield. xx

*sniggers*

Apologies for completely going off the deep end this morning. Myself and the end of my tether have long since parted company, but that was no excuse to call anyone names. I just find that it's impossible to write anything with any degree of thought or sincerity on the forum these days, mired as it is in the puerile and snide.


As for my subsequent post, again, apologies. I should have said something at the time rather than just editing my original post, but HAL, your ebay sleuthing last week made me deeply deeply uncomfortable. BBW was roundly slated for similar facebook behaviour and I found it really creepy.

    • I would recommend Lucasz - he responded to our request very quickly, gave us an excellent quote and cleaned up after himself. Will definitely ask him to do any future jobs. 
    • General view is it is tokenistic from Iran, not looking to harm life but show that they are retaliating. Same thing happened after the earlier Israeli attack back in the distant part. There will be debate, even at the top of the Iranian authorities.  Israel even without the US hold the cards.  Although are in this position due to decades of US support. As per my post on the other thread much of the reason the world is in this position is botched US post second world war middle East policy.  Supporting both sides in the Iran/Iraq war being particularly striking Trump mark 1 emboldened the right wing in Israel, perhaps pushed Hammas to more extreme action, and led to the Iranians going rogue on nukes.  I think that the latter was to put them in a stronger position in opening up grade, a country not able to sell vast quantities of oil ,(and gas?) But how does the world move on from this mess? By all means give other views to my simplistic ones   
    • The NYT ( that right wing alarmist rag) has reported that Iran told Qatar so they could prepare. Iran and Q are on good terms so Q won’t retaliate, esp as Iran is only targeting US bases, which everyone knew to expect.     If anything, it draws Qatar into the dialogue and Q will privately be urging Iran to back down. 
    • If the Qatari's decide to retaliate then it's all going off...but I suspect the Iranians are hoping for this - one inaccurate missile and the Qatari's may have to. I think the Iranian leadership is working on fast-tracking their own demise and the Americans and Israeli's planning for regime change, maybe with the many political prisoners the Israelis tried to free from the Elvin prison today. What a mess but clearly Iran was becoming a big threat to not only Israel but many of the other Gulf States and was clearly doing scary stuff with nuclear weapons that required action.
