  1. I didn't want to tell you your own business.
  2. On a cheerful note, I've shot with a pair of South Africans a few times and they were quite convivial (if still fairly stoic). The bald blokes at Bisley. I bet someone on here knows who I'm talking about.

    ArbDogs? Pics!

    On the dog market, I had a look online earlier and the very obvious thing has very obviously happened. Loads of dogs at a fraction of the prices they've been for the last three years. People fed up with coming back from work to piss and destruction left by hastily bought and poorly maintained mutts.
  4. Middling. It might be OK to you. I had it confused with District 9 for ages, which is dreadful, so it's somehow tainted. edit: Same director as District 9 too.
  5. So when someone says they've never met a nice South African, they mean they've never met a nice (Royal) South African? DiCaprio's character turned out to be OK so that fits with your hint that Rhodesians are a bit easier to love. And the long haired mercenary, Kruger in Elysium is the typification of a true Saffer?
  6. You see. That's still funny now and was at the time. Sod him if he won't let his guard down.
  7. No no. Interested to learn. What's your connection? Have you lived out there?
  8. I'm generalising. Is there a big difference with borders? I just think of any white man in the southern quarter of the African continent as being like the characters in Blood Diamond.
  9. I don't think of South Africans as corrupt as much as I think of them as scary. He'd have shit you up all the same if you'd complimented him on his car, wife and dog.
  10. It won't surprise anyone who has seen my efforts on the cooking thread to discover that I don't wash my baking trays or frying pans. Good tip anyway though.
  11. If you don't screw the ladder down, I assume the mill slides on the ladder and the ladder sticks to the wood?
  12. Do you screw it down to a cut surface?
  13. I like to think it’s something racy. Ideally not a fly fishing vest full of Semtex.
  14. I once attended a lecture on feminist jurisprudence in a little black dress and high heels, also sporting a skinhead. Went down a treat. I’ve since made further use of the heels with my burka. Got ID checked on the door of a bar once. My driving licence was in my phone case, tucked in the garter of my stockings. Bouncer took one aghast look at my hairy thigh and waved me in. Proceeded to win a dance off and score a crate of WKDs for my mates.
  15. I meant tree work over the height limit (if the height limit exists).
  16. Good answer. Different question but nevertheless a good answer.
  17. Killing people a necessity of life. Deep, man.
  18. Have the petrol engines got a good reputation? The 998cc 3 cylinder in the 107 is chain driven and apparently hard to go wrong with.
  19. Sorry, no. My little Peugeot (107) is on 14" steels. Did consider a Panda for the AWD and roof rails but the Yellow Peril came up and was just too cute. In hindsight, I could have waited and then I probably wouldn't perennially have an inch of water in the back footwell.
