My old neighbour had a few Rottweilers over the years they were big friendly playful dopes, really well trained and behaved. There was no fookin way I would trust them or turn my back on them though. I could stamp a jack russel into the ground but not a ten stone bag of muscle if it's animal instinct kicked in for some random unknown reason. 

Xl bullys, pit bulls etc are breed for one reason.

Go on then, what do you do to  stop the wrong person owning the wrong type of dog?

I mean that's fairly easy to be honest, because in an ideal world my general conditions for dog ownership would be pretty strict and preclude about 80% of any dog owners today from having one. I think the huge majority of people are incapable and unwilling to provide the minimum standards to provide for a dog,  in particular those who are absent from their dog's life for most of its life, while at work. Dogs are social creatures and should be in constant company. If you can't provide that, you shouldn't have a dog.

Go on then, what do you do to  stop the wrong person owning the wrong type of dog?

Stop the type of person who wants a dog as a weapon from having any kind of dog, don't just say they can't have a certain kind of dog. Otherwise you'll just get a weaponised spaniel, or a terrier, or a collie.

Remove such bellends from the equation and the market for that kind of dog goes down anyway.

And how on earth would you do that? How do you know if someone is responsible enough to own xxx type of dog?

That's the one, so the article said that the Labour peers blocked a bill by 206 votes (I think that was the number I read) with 174 members, not all of them turned up to vote, how is that possible ?

 

Thanks for the ID 👍

I found this at the base of an oak.

Any ideas on the ID?

I’d say almost certainly not. 
Cut it to the yellow line this year, then take it out completely next year or the year after.

I see that you've played choppy conifer before.

The top yellow line is where the customer wanted it cutting down to. The next yellow line is where they decided that it really needs cutting didn't down to although they only tell you this once the once the blower has just been switched offand the van fired up. The third and forth line happen within a frenzy of pissed offendnish and the fifth and final like is underscored in red as its the final, thats it, we'll all agree or there's going to be a fight.

Fair play to Mr OP if you can sort out that design of lanyard, you may need a budget akin to NASA' S but it could be doable.

As for high clipping a topper, it's the bomb. I can put up with any downsides as I would rather spend five minutes smashing the fook out of any saw that has the sheer audacity to get itself stuck in a fork than descend  three feet to retrieve the cheeky bstard.

Btw, I'm not a shill for big ring bungee.

So what in your opinion has changed from when I was a youth when this work was all done by indigenous British people to now when it’s primarily carried out by cheap European Labour? Be both know the answer to that but you’ll continue to ignore reality.

 

Empirically I don’t see what you’re saying reflected in everyday life. The plumber I know is still a plumber, the sparkie I know is still a sparkie, the farmers are still farmers. I’ve personally been with the same company for 25 years now. 
 

You can down play the utter failure of mass migration in Sweden all you like. Again, reality does not reflect your point of view as the link I provided from Swedens very own PM shows. The reality is far darker than he dares mention. 
 

When my kids went to the British International in Stavanger is was a very multicultural school. It was great and the kids thrived. Thankfully my kids will never have to experience a multinational school in the U.K. 

Ime it was done by kids earning £1 an hour. I know it's the truth because I did it along with loads of other kids who wanted a bit of extra pocket money.

It wasn't fruit picking it was hand weeding, lettuce picking and packing, leak picking washing and packing, etc, etc. I think that I can still smell that onion stench now!

These seasonal jobs work well for imported labour because, well, it's seasonal. I guess its difficult to make a full time career out of it for British workers.

Cheers for the link to the test.

I'd assumed I was a psychopath, but according to that test I'm all clear, which is amazing.

I think I might celebrate by letting off some fireworks, inside an elderly care home 

They would probably appreciate that. At least they would go out with a bang.

Boom, tish.

It’s not that they turned a blind eye, they didn’t know she was killing babies.

They didn’t have procedures in place or they couldn’t believe it was down to her.

They are culpable but not of murder.

 

I don’t know how to absorb these cases, they make no sense, why did she do it?

What kind of neurons in her brain got so misdirected that a woman would do this?

I find these things exasperating, can’t compute if you know what I mean.

From what the Mrs was reading out this morning it sounded like the management had a fairly good idea of what was going on, or probably what was going on. They ignored the consultants who raised the alarm.

I don't think that any of us can ever comprehend what goes on in the minds of these people. The Mrs used to work in a high security psychiatric hospital. Without gong into any detail she had to go through the files of the patients, basically they see an opportunity to rape, kill, harm someone and they just have to do it. That is one type of patient, I can't remember what the clinical description of those is but the other type of patient is the head worker type who manipulate and basically try to destroy the lives of other people mentally. And then there are patients who have both traits.

At least she was found out before she became the next Harold Shipman!

This should be a good enough reason to bring back hanging.

I hope that they are going to go after the management who turned a blind eye to it all.

I'm bang into flatbreads at the moment. Flour, salt, dash of olive oil, water. From start to putting them in a dry frying pan is about ninety seconds. Hot enough and they blister up lovely.

I'll have to give that a try as I have a tub of chilli hummus going out of date.

I thought that I would revive this extremely popular and interesting thread.

Both worth a watch imo.

I'm sure I've seen that clip before and that some people were suggesting that it was a monkey.

Whoa, whoa, whoa sweet child of mine, hang on in there for one minute. Government cover ups, DEFRA sounds way too much like DARPA which funds Boston dynamics bigdog program. Bigdog, big cats being spotted, hmm far too much of a coincidence!

Was it something like this that you saw? 

Granted that's an earlier version so itty may have looked a bit more like this.

I’m having a nice full bodied red this evening 

Now that's a steak!

A bottle of this with some chicken kebabs, which looked a bit rank as I defrosted the chicken fillets in the microwave but they tasted ok, homemade humus with chili and flat bread.

Please rank in order of credibility;-

 

UFOs
Loch Ness Monster
Ghosts

QAnon/Global Cabal/New World Order
Big cats in Britain
Yeti

 

Personally, I'd put UFOs somewhere around the middle.

 

 

Not sure how to rank them tbh, probably all at the bottom, is there any credible evidence for any of them?

Ufos are real but it doesn't mean that they are aliens. Aliens I think are very much real but very, very far away so it's sort of irrelevant, unfortunately.

Big cats, yetis, you would have thought that someone would have caught a decent bit of video evidence or at least shot one by now.

How did I know you where gonna say something like that? 🙄 You're certainly not one for owning your mistakes are you?

 

Anyway, lets move on.

 

Funny you should mention Morrisons (no apostrophe required   ) I get my marrow bones from there, one of the few places outside of the local butchers that sell them. They still do a genuine butchers range in Dundee. Not seen if they do Flat Iron though. One of my daughters used to work in a Dundee butchers and when I asked them for Flat Iron they where quite surprised. A 40% discount was rather welcome though. 

 

 

Bleeding ell, I remember the girls back in high school being bitchy but they have nothing on you.

It was a joke, it's fairly obvious that my grammar is a bit crap to say the least. If I was applying for a job or writing a report I would put a bit more effort in but since I'm only posting on a forum, on my phone, using a Swype type of keyboard is not that important imo. 

Anyway, marrow bone from Morrison's, now that's a good call. I bought some yesterday but tbh whenever I cook them most of the marrow bone just ends up as a puddle of oil in the bottom of the roasting tray. I think this time I might try to cut them with a hacksaw and see if that helps.

Yesterday's effort turned it like this

I yeeted the tomatoes back into the fridge and swapped them for the black kale which tastes great when fried with a bit of salt and pepper.

 Yes, but minus points for create. Double cringe for hear. 

Well I've got to give you something.

In regards to the aldi steak Morrison's used to sell all of those cuts which were fantastic but like all big supermarkets they have cut right back. It's probably good news for the local butchers though.

I'll be eating and drinking this.

The three beers cost more than your create of wine which sucks. I don't think that you can buy a bottle of wine over hear for less than £5.Those are some crazy low prices you have over there!

Did I use your correctly?
