  3. In line with Mr Bolam's thoughts; I would suggest that you target specific areas with reward posters. Badgers Mount, Rowdow (backof Otford/Kemsing) etc. You'll know the sort of places I mean. Hoping that you get your dog back soon.
  4. I can get by turning off smartscreen for this site but thought I'd best let you know
  5. Fraid so. Is something happening with that chap(ess) testing1 in the members bit ? Or does someone keep reporting the site ?
  6. Seems to be ok now on Edge.
  7. Thanks Steve and ThrustSSC
  8. Just tried with IE exactly the same with IE and Edge. Came up posting this reply as well.

  10. It seems this problem has resumed. Fine yesterday but today same problem as before. MS Smartscreen kicking in. I'm running Windows 10 with Edge browser.
  11. Might be ?? Go to the bottom. Court results - Horsham - West Sussex County Times
  12. Anyway.....Back to Longleat Have you ever seen the following duos in the same room ?? Lord Bath/Bill Bailey The CEO/Tony Blackburn Tall Dark Haired Animal Keeper/Mark Webber
  13. Brilliant ...You sure it was woodsmoke
  14. Sorry to hear of your loss. If I may ask.. Which vessel did he sail on ? The "Ohio" an American flagged British crewed tanker...should have sunk twice but was brought into port saddled by two RN vessels..quite an amazing story....Operation Pedestal...I believe the "Old Man" of the Ohio was awarded the George Cross (?) Is any one aware of Merchant Navy Day ? The MN memorial at Tower Hill? the fact that after years of discussion with local councils that they're finally allowed to fly the "Red Duster" permanently ? I'm afraid my previous coments about recognition still stand .
  15. Thanks Stubby.....I've sailed with some of those who were on these convoys in their younger days (when I was in my younger days ) though most of them have now "crossed the bar". If I've never achieved much in life at the very least I can say I've bought and shared a beer with some very quiet, brave men, both engineroom and deckside.......
  16. Sadly the British Merchant Navy was generally treated shabbily during WW II. The Losses on the Murmansk run were horrendus as were those on the Atlantic convoys. If you research it you'll find tales of incredible bravery and selflessness but also tales of horrors you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy. Tankers were their worst nightmare and has been quoted "I prefer ammo ships meself.......boom !....you'll know nothing about it." If your ship was sunk...your pay stopped. I think that was changed towards the end of the war. William Doxfords at the Pallion works on the Tyne and the yards in Greenock and Belfast could not produce new tonnage at the rate they were being sunk, hence in the later years "Liberty Ships" from the states....first vessels to be modular built (eg built in sections at different yards and final assembled in drydock). Overall the whole series of affairs was not a good reflection on the ship owners or indeed the government of the time. IMHO opinion British Seafarer's were (are) the finest in the world. They have never received full recognition for WW II actions and I doubt they ever will.
  17. And perhaps offer a "Job Finders Fee" either straight payment or percentage of price, on confirmation of job. That way you'll only pay for work coming in and not the prospect of work
  18. Brilliant.......JRT/Goat :lol:
  19. Fair play to you Rob At the very least dog will have a happy home with someone she knows and trusts.......someone else in another place will also rest easier.
