  6. Heaven save us all. That giggling prat Vine is back on Radio 2. It was a joy to hear Vanessa Feltz last week (and I'm no particular fan). At least she let all her contributors speak without interrupting and giggling. He has started already in his inane way giggling and making flippant remarks about the impending Danish Ash disease. He seems to think that It's funny.

  7. One of my two old ladies passed away tonight. She was a domesticated feral cat who was 22 years old, so a good innings. Will miss her a lot. Her twin sister remains. They were like chalk and cheese.

      Don't talk about a potential "great prime minister" like that.

       

      Wait a second. I didn't think it was normally considered good form for foreign poilitical "leaders" to interfere in this country's business.

       

      Not that little matters like this seem to concern "The Donald", you understand.

       

      I'll refrain from saying what I think of Trump's "advice" about Brexit and potential trade deals.

      I have no idea what you mean, Horse. I myself need a passport to get into parts of Cornwall, so why should anyone else be different? And anyway, I'm not grown up enough to do 'patronising'. I have occasionally been known to do a little underscale teasing from time to time, though.

      I see people pass way every day at work, some are expected, some not. Some deaths are better than others, and sadly some down right cruel and distressing for all concerned! For some if it a relief and others the end of their world. Sadly as I discovered a few years ago, the same can also be said with the passing of our pets!

  16. is INCANDESCENT that the BBC has given up 'The Open' golf to the Murdock Continuum and yet again thrown away a superb annual sporting event. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-3254566/BBC-TV-rights-Open-year-early-Sky-Sports-broadcasting-Royal-Troon-2016.html Remember the 'half live coverage' of F1 given away to Sky being described by some ****wit woman sports director as "A good deal for viewers"

      Quite agree with RE6/6 - there was some benefit switching between BBC and Sky News, until they both concentrated on la-la-land,

  19. is getting rather browned off with all the politicking going on...particularly the 'unpleasant brigade' droning on. McCluskey on one side and Redwood on the other. Bring back Spode and his 'Black Shorts' for a laugh. Thank Heavens for our hobby to focus on!.

  20. was listening to Hendrix's record of 'All Along the Watchtower' on the radio during the eclipse with Dylan's ghostly lyrics! All very fitting for the occasion. The only other track that would have fitted might have been Spiderbait's 'Ghost Riders in the Sky'!

      Actually, if listening to Hendrix you should have been playing Voodoo Chile, which has the line "the night I was born, the moon turned a fire red".

      A long hot summer means the awful prospect of CK's exposed knees.

      In my case, a long hot summer is more likely to mean the painful prospect of a beetroot tan.
