I'll turn it around for you J ? There'd be no desperate need for improved infrastructure if we: (a) stopped using productivity as the measure of success and switched instead to sustainability, and, (b) stopped importing unsustainable numbers of human being into the country we'd see an immediate, tangible decrease in the pressure upon existing infrastructure services. Bosh! Fixed in a oner!! Where's my cider....

Just so long as you stay North of the River you twat!

J, whilst I 'feel' your frustration, I am: (a) surprised by the apparent undercurrent of justification for the wanton destruction of invaluable habitat sacrificed at the alter of capitalism in the pursuit of threppence per board foot additional profit which might result from a tarmac super-highway, and, (b) saddened by the apparent disdain for such cultural, historic, and ecologically irreplaceable features of the West Country landscape. You seem to be advocating the wholesale destruction of key elements of a World Heritage Site which I find astonishing. This is a big old chunk of text (https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/media/38341273/biodiversity-guide.pdf) but if you cut to, and start at, p46 para 10.2 it provides a neat summary of the irreplaceable value of the very thing that seems to be frustrating you most at the moment. For the love of God J, and for the sake of your blood pressure, relax m'ansome, chop the van in for a heavy horse and drink more cider. You may not live any longer but you might enjoy it more.... ?

No.... Lord Lucan went ‘dark’ in ‘74 and has been doing all the Royals Black Bag Ops ever since. Keep it on the down low though - loose lips sink ships an all that. ?

Eeeee, back in the day.... Prob running on red and emptying the bowsers into nearest watercourse, Eeeee, the good ol days! ?

Tnuc!

How depressed must Dianne Abbot be feeling about NOT being mentioned in the reporting of Caroline Lucas “dream team” all female Remoaner cabinet ??? Remoaner Caroline Lucas blasted for proposing all-female national unity government to stop Brexit – The Sun WWW.THESUN.CO.UK CAROLINE Lucas has been blasted for proposing an all-female national unity government to stop a No... The reported list of recipients of the letter is scary enough but imagine Abbott being in there as well. She may be, Lucas ain’t daft, maybe she just realised that the mention of Abbott would heap even more ridicule upon a patently daft suggestion?

I’d just add, it wasn’t confined to N of England. It was also prevalent as far S as Oxford - AND its not an exclusive UK phenomenon. You’ve saved me the trouble of answering - Id simply have said Cologne. I think that scenario sums the situation up, and verifies your point quite adequately.

A guess, that just about sums it up Ed. You 'guess' I'm not troubled by something because it allows you to off-set against something that I am troubled by with something that might trouble you... Your logic is so flawed it is laughable. Have a think about that. There are many things in the world that are troubling. If someone voices an opinion about 1 of them, that opinion is in no way diminished by someone (like you) raising a counter point and saying "yeah, but what about...." If the issues you highlight above trouble YOU, voice your opinion. Don't be afraid, I'm not going to come along and say "yeah, but what about...." I'd more likely say "you have a fair point there fella..." If I want to NOT be surprised by the religious origin of someone perpetrating a crime, and if I want to note that it took the media quite some time to report an element of that scenario which could have been predicted with some considerable confidence well in advance of that report, and I want to pass comment on it - that is EXACTLY what I will do and I couldn't give a monkey's toss if you, or anyone else, thinks that is "racist." All it actually does is demonstrate that (a) you don't know me and (b) you don't know the definition of racism. *sigh*

Dhooooh! Stand down the pitch fork wielding angry mob..... Mmmmm, hold on, uninhibited inward migration from third world medieval cult cultures can be shown to be a resounding success....

I don’t follow football ?

Police officer attempted murder. It took best part of 24 hrs to get any indication of the perp’s ‘background.’ Muhammad Faisal Who’d have thought it.....

I was going to mention that! Timeless classic!! ?

Never grows old Mr S! ?

If Alan Johnson had run for leadership we’d be in a very different position now.

Conversely, I’d suggest, and taking full account of the elephant ? in the corner there, it'd be a touch bold to propose that landscape usage over the preceding couple o hundred years has had absolutely no influence what so ever upon the current perilous state of affairs.... ?

Superfluous Mr D!

Hedges and banks removed for the advantage of intensive agri industry, trees clear felled, vast swathes of ‘efficient’ mono crops - all gleefully delivered by government subsidy and hard done by farmers claiming to be the poor down trodden guardians of the countryside. Behold the the fruits of your labours and hear my scorn as you plead poverty and continue to rape and desecrate the very source of your livelihood.

All right Mr D! Don't panic, I can't see it being a contender for longest ever thread whilst yomeself and Silky Fox are still in the parish. ?

It usually is Gary ??? (I don’t mean better than yours, I mean better than most! ?) Im still sticking to ma guns though, at the customer (and my meaning is domestic + Cornish - whatever the Latin for that might be) interface, it’s pretty much a total waste of time / effort and serves little more purpose than self aggrandisement.

The wife returned home on Saturday after a 2 week absence at a residential course. She was somewhat dismayed at the scope and nature of that which had passed for ‘normal’ during her absence... EEEC283B-8644-4F81-BB5C-3D6148AF7469.mov

Not entirely accurate - Wales & Cornwall also proved ‘awkward’ for the Romans. Maybe it was just too challenging in relation to the potential gain ?

Not so fast Sherlock! Obv’s I can’t go into detail, but I suspect there are several more likely candidates for blame before the tree!!

?? where's that bang head off wall emoji gone.....?
