  1. Seems to be making a lot of political decisions though. Websters has Politician defined as; a person who is active in politics, esp. as a job. Seems there is quite the precedent for allowing Advisors to run the show from behind the curtain. https://blog.oup.com/2019/03/how-tony-blair-advisers-changed-government/ If you think driving a few hours to drop your kid off is bad wait til you hear what Alastair Campbell got up to during the Blair Years.
  2. But you did just post a Twitter comment, with zero context. All Politicians are liars, you must know that by now, surely? You seem to have an issue with Tory lies above all other parties. It really clouds your judgement and cheapens any valid opinion you might have had.
  3. Id not bother with the X27 if you already a Maul. I think the X27 is a fad to be honest.
  4. Are you asking me to form an opinion on a tweet you posted with some quotation written by a Shane Bailey?
  5. No, I do agree there. He really has to go so as to maintain some form of grip on the 'lock-down'. If it Dam walls where cracking before they've certainly burst now.
  6. Would you leave you children for extended periods of time with anyone other than family? Pedo's are never the ones you expect are they?
  7. I hope it does not split then. Four months lying on the ground would have done little to reduce the MC. Might be worth keeping in a cool garage or shed for a few months before finishing? Another option would be when it splits if fill the split with something? Resin maybe? I'll have a look at Axminster for some knives.
  8. With an honest description I assume?
  9. Very nice! How long did you dry the wood before carving? What knives do you use? Was thinking of getting some of my own. I really like Danish Oil, its food and Child safe, really makes the wood pop and has a shell like finish.
  10. You certainly know your stuff. Some pretenders here.
  11. Define idiots. You're claiming its idiots who are not social distancing yet you've just described the majority of Sweden. Lumping the minute number of weirdo's who think 5g causes C-19 along with those who dont social distance is simply stupid. Sweden also has a vast immigrant population/problem, these people generally dont care about Social Distancing, in Sweden or their home countries. Their ghettos are over populated and sub-standard as well. Below is some pictures of Swedes going about their life during Corona Times. You've been conditioned to call people who do this in the UK 'covidiots' by the media. Yet for some reason when Sweden does the same on a national scale they are not idiots?
  12. Global Warming? Ok. My living is made with neither. By the time I retire in 25 years I'll be in the same industry as I am now I expect. Thats Oil and Gas. Gotta keep the Oil flowing! Get this earth warmed up a little more, bloody freezing up my way.
  13. Id be interested in the 390? I have a knackered one at home that I could cobble together with this one to make one good one? But would need to be posted though? Ive had a few in the post over the years.
  14. Cheers. How do you check what Pension you have? Or are you referring to a Private Pension only? How do you find out how much assets you need to qualify?
  15. No no, its on his own head. But the Tory Remainers will make full use of this to dispose of the architect of Boris Brexit plan. At least Starmer is now saying he's not gonna try and drag us back into the EU. But who cant trust politicians? I guess the Party have finally realised that the general population do not want back into the EU and its a losing policy to pin your flag to. But what he says and what he does could be a very different matter, considering he's another Remoaner.
  16. Agreed. Although I fear the Remoaners will use this as leverage. Stupid Dom!
  17. I have to agree here too. I think he should be hung out to dry for his actions. If you're gonna advice and this advice becomes enforceable by the police then you better make damn sure you follow that advice. Id have done the same as him, mind. But that's not the point.
  18. The Civil Service is becoming the Tail that wags the Dog. Unaccountable and unelected shadowy figures that have got to big for their boots. There seems to be little civility from them these days nor do they seem themselves as servants.
  19. Ah yeh of course. Never thought of that aspect before. Hoe many days before you travel out?
  20. A million pounds or a million Kiwi Dollars? How old are you if you dont mind me asking? Ive thought about emigrating to a English Speaking Country before. NZ and Canada seem to fit the Bill. Even the US but seems really hard to get in there and the people are proper crazy. I think at 41 I might have left it to late?
  21. Another thing on my 'to-buy' list is a Trencher. I really like laying Pipe and I think it would make this much easier to attain.
  22. You have to go into quarantine before you're allowed off-shore in the UK sector? Canny be easy, especially with the HMRC still breathing down your neck. No, they where a proper bunch of twats. Imagine Abbott having anything to do with this? She could not even leave the house with the same pair of shoes on, its frightening to think people would still prefer that shower of twats to be running the show. but still, if they're moaning about Dom and moaning about finding the guidelines to confusing I guess they have it pretty good.
  23. No, I do get what you're saying. I certainly dont give a shit and its clear those that do are Leftie Luvies and Remoaner Tories with an Axe to Grind. Just more politics and regular folk get sucked up into it and start frothing at the mouth. But Dom really should not have gone so heavily against his own guidelines. Three big trips away when others are getting fines for it? Its the kind of hypocrisy we can really do without. Yeh, putting lives in danger? More wank. Seems to be the same twats that fail to understand the governments guidelines and get so confused by they they make memes instead. Anyway, on a brighter note Off-shore workers returning to the UK seem to be exempt from the 14 day quarantine.
  24. Good point! Ive not ploughed any virgin territory in years!
  25. Thanks for the heads up and info. More food for thought! Virgin ground is definitely what I'll be needing worked at some point. Looks like I'll have to maybe increase my budget!
