...and you know who you are, you filthy mole.


When you're mate asked if you had watched any of the paralympics, you're reply of


"Why would anyone want to watch that shit, a bunch of spastic cripples..." you said it so loudly and laughed so wildly that your great big fat white gut, feel clear out over the top of your grubby jeans.


Keep your redneck Queenslander (judging by your accent) thoughts to your self.

He has probably totally missed the irony - his "bunch of spastic cripples" are much fitter than he is and *much* closer, physically and spiritually, to the British competitors who won medals in the Olympics. Of course many Aussies are currently labouring under a massive inferiority complex anyway since "Team GB" tonked them so thoroughly at the latter event...

Keef, I don't know of anybody who thinks like he does. I don't keep company with arseholes.

Madworld you do tend to jump down people's throats without really reading what they were trying to say. I don't keep company with arseholes either, but that doesn not change the fact that lots of people won't really give the paralympics the time of day, and lots of people will laugh at the term spaz or cripple.


That's the world we live in, like it or not!


For my part I do lots of work with blind sports charities, and sit next to the England Blind cricket team manager every day at work. Sorry if I sound defensive here, but I feel like you're suggesting myself and Simon are on the same page as the drunk Aussie bloke.

There are 2 formats. The international game uses a normal sized ball with a rattle in it, and it's bowled underarm (although some of them are feckin fast!!!). The domestic game in the UK uses a larger ball (biiger than a cricket ball but smaller than a football), also with rattles in it, this is bowled overarm like normal cricket.


The new England captain Matthew Dean scored a century in his debut as captain (against the West Indies) about a week before KP did it.

Sorry AFN - are you making out that since I work the advertising industry I'm a... 'filthy mole', 'swine', 'immature', 'arsehole' 'pigman'?


I'm astounded to think that a toilet mouth is the making of a gentleman.


Is this how we do it? Having exhausted the scorn we can pour those who may deserve it, we then extend our aim to spatter our diseased prejudices over any other target of our choosing? What a shame.

blind cricket, excuse my ignorance, but are the players totally blind or partially sighted. How big is the bat if they are using a bigger ball, is the ball as hard as a normal ball and finally is there someone calling direction of stroke as i can,t imagine the players would have much reaction time.

Advertising Industry? Sorry i thought you were just opposed to the rituals of the Catholic Church, had no idea that you also offer spirtitual redemption through object fetishisation.


But no in answer to your question i was just pointing out the fact that the popularity of the event is specifically linked to the viewers which in turn is linked to the advertising and prominence of the scheduling within a tele-visual context. if the audience ain't there then advertisers won't sell. We are all complicit within this little capitalist conundrum.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
