    Jokes???

    A burglar broke into a house one night. He shined his torch around, looking for valuables when a voice in the dark said, "Jesus knows you're here." He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his torch off, and froze. When he heard nothing more, he shook his head and continued. Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the cables, clear as a bell he heard "Jesus is watching you." Startled, he shined his torch around frantically, looking for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, the beam of his torch came to rest on a parrot. "Did you say that?" he hissed at the parrot. "Yes", the parrot confessed, then squawked, "I'm just trying to warn you that he's watching you." The burglar relaxed. "Warn me, huh? Who in the world are you?" "Moses," replied the bird. "Moses?" the burglar laughed. "What kind of people would name a bird Moses?" "The kind of people who would name a Rottweiler Jesus."

  6. No help, but they're not that expensive. Some of the images are quite old. You do get 10% off if your an Arb Assoc. member. If you have a semi-savvy computer team, they should be able to create topo's from other sources of aerial photography.

  8. ^That makes no sense.
  9. He could, but he didn't.
  10. Yup, Pretty grim.
  11. He means, I suggest, that the 'virus' are people of non-white skin colour. Which makes him a bit of horrible racist, if that was what he was suggesting. If not, then I apologise for any percieved insult. Eggs is real.
  12. Haha. Bless you and your wee petrochemical socks. That's the nicest thing anyone has said in ages.
  13. Yes. If it was made apparrent that most nannas are going to die as a result of inactivity. "Take it on the chin" Who shall we call upon to govern us, now that all the kings are gone...
  14. It was left open on purpose.
  15. Ok then, so if they have the right people, why didn't they follow their advice ie: lockdown 4 weeks before it was instigated, and doing something more useful than telling the over 70's to avoid cruises etc.? I'd like to know what you think their reasoning is? Why employ experts if you don't act upon their guidance? Graphs look swanky, I appreciate you've done some research, but the graphs would look much different if the gov had acted in a professional manner.
  16. How many do you have?
  17. Just playing by the rules.
  18. Why not? If that is the case, then what's the point of them if they don't know what they're doing? If I was responsible for looking after 70 odd million people, I'd be hiring the very best people. I'll be able to source, or point you in the right direction for logs. If I make some money off it, then by all means you can have a coffee on expenses. If not, I'll buy you a pint.
  19. Mate, I'm just a scientist who works with trees. If I had a clue about politics, I'd probably be a politician. I know a little bit about viruses and how they work but I'm no epidomologist either. I'd prefer it if the people 'in charge' seemed to have a clue. I really think that the gov deserves a hiding for the way they've handled it. I can't see how anyone would think anything other than that. Unless of couse, you can enlighten me on the good work the gov is doing?
  20. Well, I have no political affiliation for starters. I'd probably vote for the green party if proportional representation was a thing. In my day to day life I see huge amounts of social division and injustice. I'm close friends with people who are heavily involved in the social care sector. I make decent business choices, which sees me alright. I employ a few people too. Both of my companies are limited companies. My accountant advised me to go that way (everyone should get an accountant). I've been on the bones of my arse more than once. I'm lucky and everyone needs a bit of luck. So, tell me about the good things the tories are doing or get back yer box. When you say that all government are cnuts, I think it's a bit defeatist. They're only that way because we let them get away with it.
