  1. He he. Ive been to the US a few times and its quite breathtaking on what they can tuck away, Man V Food (TV program)is a prime example
  2. If we are taking control of the USA sorting out the bacon issue needs to be at the top of that list.
  3. Did you actually read Mark Bolams post and then my reply before replying to my post!? No chips. I know plenty of very decent down to earth hard working people who have more than a few well deserved bob (as I have already mentioned). Sounds as though you have summed it up though, the arseholes are the ones with chips on their shoulder, maybe they begrudge giving some grunt their hard earned cash. I prefer to work for rich people because they have the cash to pay for the job. Just not the ignorant arseholes, Im not sure why you dont understand that?
  4. I doubt it as surely no arb rope would ever pass a LOLER? Ive used petrol to remove resin from ropes, my guess is if petrol/oil attacked arb ropes a lot of us would be well and truly fecked by now (in the fact a fair bit of unburnt petrol and oil escapes your chainsaw and no doubt covers your rope) , I did leave a piece of climbing line in a jug of petrol to see what would happen, nothing visible ie it didnt melt, expand looseits colour or become brittle but then I didnt break test it. Ive read on here that butter is supposed to be good at getting rid of sap, that or leave it to dry and it eventually flakes off.
  5. Well then Trigger, your talking shit now explain yourself.
  6. So where did I say all rich people are asreholes? People who tell you how to do your job and that you should do it cheaper when they have no clue whatsoever are arseholes whether rich or poor, have a PhD or not. Just because they have a better education or more money doesnt give them the right to talk to people like they are idiots. I also don't agree that 'rich' people won't rob you. I few I know do it indirectly, they aren't doctors or bankers though, usually run sun bed shops as a front or own night clubs.
  7. What kind of an education is that then? One that teaches them to be assholes? I have no time for rich people who tell you how to do your job and then tell you to do it cheaper when they have 1 they have no clue about it and 2 spend more money on petrol for their Austin and range rover in a week then you are charging for a bit of honest hard work. I have worked for plenty of decent down to earth people with plenty of money who know the value of it and hard work.
  8. My latest besterest song
  9. Class I bet that makes you laugh every time you think of it. I know everyone says these ignorant rich cnts are rich because they are tight, bollox I bet they are rich because they are the 1 in a 100 of us that are psychopaths (the none murderous kind) that can bend a lot of people to their will, good to see they dont always win
  10. Maybe it's lost limbs, rotten and knackered and it's that or fell it. What would be the general consensus be then? As skyhuck says I would of expected/preferred to see it hit harder back to the old pollard points.
  11. Edge of tomorrow, watched it last night for the squillithin time, brilliant. A wonderful life. Ghostbusters. They are films I can watch again and again.
  12. Yep that's exactly what happens. I know for a fact that with a lot of big firms come the end of the month someone pics and chooses who is getting paid and who is getting bumped until maybe next month. Good on the guy, no one got hurt and he certainly made a statement!
  13. Yes but then I surround myself with like minded people butI have seen plenty of the opposite. That isn't the issue though is it. The issue is if people have to put their hand in their pocket to pay for services a lot won't. Imagine the state of the place when some wont or can't pay for bin collections, think of the increasing amount of uneducated people there would be due to not going to school etc etc. I just don't see how it could work.
  14. Is that a serious question? If so of course I wouldn't! But, you know what ,there are people in the UK who do do that because they are either slobs or flat broke. Make people pay directly or should I say give them the option to not pay for the services mentioned and the problem would drastically increase, it's not rocket science.
  15. Well I for one am glad we are forced to pay taxes for many services, health service, roads, schooling, waste removal etc etc. It is far better than the alternative, stopping ever 100 yards to pay road tolls while watching sick kids wandering about during school time fly tipping rubbish. Straight into third world poverty. Mps claiming for duck houses and gardening and multi billion pound companies moving money about to show low profits are what need addressing imo.
  16. God help whoever is listening into my conversations! Must dash as Abi Titmuss is knocking on the door trying to deliver my George Foreman grill
  17. London plane, horrible in the summer as has already been said, horrible and slippy in the wet, smash to smithereens or tangle like a twat when they hit the floor making them a PITA to climb, clean up or chip. Whoever wrote that program needs shooting.
  18. Its my all time favourite of all time favourites atm mate.
  19. I've never had finance on purchasing equipment but I'm fairly sure in some circumstances your better off than buying it outright.
  20. HA, I asked if I could have some (last time I scratched my eye) no chance was the answer They are indeed amazing! Had a few badly scratched eyes and arc eye more than once (you would think once would be enough of a warning!) , both horrible and have no doubt had a negative effect on my eyesight. You can understand why HSE are fairly hot on eye protection.
  21. Speak for yourself there mate! Dont worry, there will be plenty of trees around long after we are gone, no matter what happens to the planet. Well, until it is gobbled up by the Sun. Interesting thread, would be nice to see a few photos if you have them? DED had made its mark long before I was interested in treework.
  22. Well then, are you a non smoker teetotaler?
  23. I guess you have never smoked or drank alcohol then otherwise how much of a hypocrite are you? Sad and unfortunately more too common tales from Timon indeed. Great news for the tight arses who can use plenty of excuses not to give to charity, charity's are ran by billionaires and peadofiles and all street beggars are smack heads. Again it makes me realise how extremely lucky I am. Where the blame lies is difficult to say as it can stretch right back to the Afghanistan poppy farmer.
  24. Have a good one all.
