  1. Brilliant
  2. I’m no Tory but he made the labour bloke look like a dullard
  3. Having listened to rees mogg I feel this country went down the tubes when we got rid of serfdom
  4. For Difflock
  5. Just proves good old foreplay does have its place
  6. Where and when big boy?
  7. I’m afraid to like it in case I get removed from the forum along with yourself
  8. Did you see me in the pink shirt???
  9. back from QT, great time, didn't get my Qs asked, 200/6 odds. JRM got the biggest cheer during the introductions, amazing as Bishop auckland is a deprived area. he is surely going to be PM one day soon. i was the only that laughed at one of his comments which he noted so at the very least you will hear me laugh?
  10. A few weeks ago one employee was moaning about maternity pay and justified it by saying the business is flush cos one of my partners had just bought a new car. He actually downsized to a second hand mini due to downturn in profits!
  11. Buy cheap buy twice. I’d only buy second hand if you know the saw inside out
  12. but then you need a good manager. i have had 4 in 25 yrs, only one was great, one off on sick all the effing time with stress and the other two coasting, so i do back pedal a little, it's not just the younger generation unfortunately. (mind the great manager was someone i took on aged 50. he said he would only stay for 5 years and fank thuck he stayed 10)
  13. I don’t think there is mate. As galling as it is I think you just have to accept it and get on. Imho it is a generational/societal problem. I’m a boss of a different type of business but the same issues. When I started 30 yrs ago NO ONE went on sick, all put total, non complaining effort in and you were there to stay. Why do you think Eastern Europeans with poor English get a job here and are actively sort after by employers? Their work ethic. I’m currently looking to sack several staff because of their repeat short term absences. Life is too short mate
  14. no, the shed survived thanks to my hose action.it is behind the brick wall. the fence view is from farmers field. the russian vine in the shed photo has now mostly gone. yes barbed wire. you have a dirty mind, i was in my y fronts on the garden shed roof dousing the flames with the garden HOSE. it was 3am. thanks for concern
  15. is that something to do with whiskey?
  16. The damage
  17. His pants
  18. it was dark and they would have needed an image intensify
  19. I'm lucky if my stream clears my trousers mate. hopefully the fire destroyed the Russian vine I planted 20 yrs ago which has taken over the hedgerow and several trees
  20. At my age you go for a pee 3-4 times a night. Got up at 3 this am for a pee, saw 20ft flames coming from the direction my new lawnmower shed. Shouted my son out of bed etc etc, climbed onto the shed roof (made from 1”thick self milled spruce [emoji6]) with my garden hose in my y fronts. Firemen came and put it out. Verdict? Compost heap spontaneously combusted. Heard of it with wet canvas and hay stacks but compost heaps??? Eggs, do you mind telling me where you were at 3am this morning?[emoji1345]‍♂️
  21. Add in bald and bingo
  22. Never heard of ME! Google me
  23. Now you have taken it too far, that’s disgusting [emoji23]
