I once went sea fishing ( brave girl that I am )


I caught a large Codling and then started pulling a Mackerel in. The guy on the boat I was with took it off the hook and threw it back.

Now, that didn't bother me but my darling lady can't face eating one since.


Put her right off it has.

I have noticed 'bee miles' on jars of honey now. Agree, it has that effect on me too.

What Mr Ben says. Also that gruesome fraud "Lady" Gaga is putting me off music. Not just her own cheap derivative doggerel. All music. Stop her -NOW.

I have never been able to open a can of baked beans (which I lurve) without thinking of a news story years ago where someone opened up a can of beans and tipped out not only the little golden/red ball of yumness but a perfectly cooked mouse http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/wuerg/vomit-smiley-019.gif

I used to quite like Bright Eyes (tha Conor Oberst band, not the Art Garfunkel song, though I have a soft spot for it, loving Watership Down as a kid) until I went to a live concert.

His fans were singularly the least humoured most self regarding bunch of mopes ever and Coner, far from being the witty ironic satirist i though he was, was just as much of a self regarding, humourless mope.


It was about eight years before I was able to put on any of his songs again.

I occasionally indulge these days; a twonk he may be but he does write a good song now and again.

I like cycling- but its those hills that put me off- whenevre i head south and hit crystal palace hill I seem to decide it is better to cycle to the bottom of the hill and back 3 times rather than cycle up it ..............

Just watching Northern Exposure on DVD, but in searching out where it was filmed , I discovered that the spectacular and sexually charged Maggie is now a host of Tea Party events who says that Obama stole God from her children.


Ho hum....

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
    • These charity collectors are often classed as chuggers.  It can be scandalous that the charity/admin may keep a huge percentage of your donations and a tiny percentage is  actually given to the charity.   I can not speak for individual collectors - but it common practice.
