I had a quick look through the links. What is it that is so controversial?

We are always at the beginning of the end of our current way of life. The only constant is change. When did our current way of life begin, and what was before it?

What did you learn today felling these trees in sub zero temps? Tell us, you be the source of info, you are the horse’s mouth.

My old boss used to say on a cold day ‘you can always work yourself warm’ He did die of hypothermia lost in a field as a 82 year old wearing his pyjamas after wandering out of hospital in January, so I guess he should have picked up some wood and run about a bit. Live and learn.

You cannot argue with that sort of laser sharp insight, bravo!😂

As the old saying goes. Lock your dog and your wife in the boot of your car for two hours, when you open it see which one is happy to see you. (Don’t do this by the way, it’s just a saying)

I see Trump is selling his own NFTs, when I saw the vid I thought it had to be a spoof or fake, but no, it’s real.

Exceptional keeper, had a mistake in him, but 6 league titles, 3 FA cups, 1 European cup and 440 appearances tells its own story.

No, not sure if he ever addressed me by name, although he knew it. Strange guy, had an air of silent menace. He’d come in late afternoon, insist on buying us a drink, no argument. No chat, no laughs, once asked me during the 98 World Cup if I’d seen who was in goal for Nigeria, I replied (in a South African accent) ‘some black fella’ which got a few laughs…..he didn’t laugh.
-
That was sort of the point!
-
I can honestly say, I didn’t like him or trust him (he lived next door to the pub and I did a little bit of tree work and stump work) but cross him or take him on? No way!

I was down the Mucky Duck once (2000), bit pissed, and going on about the Hanse Cronje match fixing scandal. ’Typical bloody South African’ I said ‘corrupt as the day is long’ Who was I talking to? Honest to God it was Bruce Grobbelar! He is one scary dude by the way.

What do you mean by that?
-
‘Illegal drug smuggler’ Give your head a wobble mate.
-
Same as you when you say it was an either/or.
-
Did a little research (just googling around of course) It wasn’t an either/or situation, it was Griner or nothing, Paul Whelan is being held on espionage charges and his release wasn’t on the table. Its diplomacy not a pick’n’mix.

Tell us about her Anti American sentiments.
-
So now it’s ‘she’! It’s not about what I think, it’s what you write ie. ‘she he oddball freak’ referring to her as ‘it’ You saying all that because she has different views to you on politics? On another note, am I the only one honored with your passive-aggressive use of the surname? It’s nice to think I’m special and all, but do you bestow this accolade on others?
-
You thought she was transgender didn’t you? Now you’re back pedalling like mad! Lovely to watch.
-
So why were you calling her ‘it’ and an oddball freak?
-
Brittney Griner isn’t transgender, born a woman, lives as a woman.
-
Point missed.
-
39 billion dollars worth of arms sales to foreign powers between 2008 and 2017 according to wiki (let’s not get bogged down with precise figures and agree it’s a lot) But call this guy “the merchant of death” and all of a sudden we’re Snow White.

Doesn’t the Uk sell arms to Saudi?
