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?
-
I guess you’re right.

Consider it a lucky escape. £600 well spent.

I thought there was a 60 and over club on here as well. -
Had he landed one on you, on film, he’d surely be looking at porridge.

Petition for legislation for winter and all season tyres
Mick Dempsey replied to Big J's topic in The Lounge
Well yeah, but it happens every year in Sweden and very rarely in the UK. Once every 7 years or so? People are used to those conditions in Sweden, so they either have the appropriate tyres or vehicles or they stay at home and make porno films. -
People are nuts, glad you’re ok. He could apologise to the coppers as far as I’m concerned.

I know what you’re thinking, what’s with the two stupid branches? Well, the client was a bit of a mind changer if you know what I mean. We were going to take the left stem down to a totem pole (which we did in the end) but the day before he decided he wanted branches left to look more natural. I told him it would look stupid, it would make the job more difficult, lowering everything to avoid the branches, and that he’d likely change his mind but he was resolute. I had organised subbies and everything so instead of just walking away I said ok. In the end he agreed and we just cut those branches off!

59 today, so one more year in the club. Photo taken this summer, biggest tree of the year.

This is one of those that’s been knocking around for a few years. Funniest comment I read on it was from August Hunicke who said.. “If that was his wife what’s the betting he slept on the sofa that night?”

Well it’s easily done, IF you can get the work. 5 jobs a week, 5 clients to visit at the weekend or in the evening, two jobs a day sometimes, there is a lot of buggering about. I’ve only worked a handful of days in utility work, railway line stuff, hideous if I’m honest, but I know people that do it and earn a living ok. For the OP a foot in the door of the sector, recession proof steady work, knowing what you’re doing week on week I can see the attraction.

Yes, fantastic fun.

Rudgwick football club trip to Amsterdam 92 ish. Every man Jack of us got larruped non stop, played some kind of mini tournament, which was incidental. Spent every day getting stoned in the Hill Street Blues bar in the centre, then evenings strolling round the red light area.

Scenic Caves on the Niagara Escarpment

He’s trying to build subscribers to his YouTube channel so he can fight Logan Paul for a chance to appear on Strictly Come Dancing. -
Saw that earlier, very apposite.
-
You haven’t a clue, but nice try.
-
Certainly looked more coherent, Walker did well against Mbappé, Kane excellent (apart from..) Change luck for belief and I think you’re closer.

When I finished playing for the village they dragged me out to referee a couple of matches when they didn’t have an available ref. One match was ok, the next was a nightmare, the opposing team constantly accusing me of bias, the manager coming on to the pitch to confront me, all in an effort to get me to abandon the match. I was harangued especially by one player openly insulting me. When I blew the final whistle I confronted him (in an aggressive manner) and all of a sudden he didn’t want to know, walked off ignoring me. It’s a very hard job, everyone who plays should ref a few matches. Pic of me in ‘94 ish

It’s a Pavlovian response when I see it. Anyway, no offence intended Alfie.

Took down a couple of magnolias this week. I was struck by these seeds in the ‘fruit’ Bright red, like something from a sci-fi film. Thats it really.
