  1. Big J just knocking it out of the park as usual. I'd vote for him. I wonder if he's got a fanclub I could join...
  2. Dumbstruck... 10 years, probably out in 6 unless someone inside takes it upon themselves to do the job properly... just throw him out the airlock and be done with it! Apparently he'd offer to rehome dogs on Facebook and gumtree and the like if the original owners couldn't look after it any more... and send pictures of them still alive after he'd already killed them, if they messaged asking how they were getting on. What the f*ck! 10 years?! Obviously, as a smelly hippy I think prisons should be primarily for reform and rehabilitation (and yeah, maybe a little bit of punishment...), but not for the likes of this! Chain him to a tree and leave him for the ants.
  3. Can you recommend a tape to make them thinner for dainty, feminine hands like mine?
  4. Yeeaah, that'd do it. Tie in point on top of them for lifting usually 👍
  5. Maaate... I was giving you an opportunity to share your opinion... Okay, we'll start here... Hmm. No joy so far. Care to suggest any keywords? Like I say... I do not know enough about the organisation to form a worthwhile opinion, so I'd be grateful if you were to help me fill in any gaps in my knowledge. Thank you 😊
  6. I'll take that as a no, then.
  7. Or, to put it more succinctly...
  8. Video of smashed Russian column deep inside Kursk... A big old mess that the Ruskies are going to find more and more difficult to tidy up the longer it goes on. Go on lads, wreak havoc!

  9. Ahh yeah, I see what you mean. I guess you could bodge job a lift with a bottle jack or two, depending on the terrain.
  10. You generally give top quality advice, but the feelings of the person expected to carry out the work are always to be taken into account as well. Let's rephrase the question: "A customer has asked me to pumice her bunions and stir the resulting scrapings into my cup-a-soup. I don't think the job is up my street, and advised her as such." Walk away, let her find someone else, don't undertake any work that you wouldn't be happy doing. Personally, I'll do any dirty little thing you want to a sycamore, but some other poor fella can butcher her oak trees for her.
  11. A popular trend on Twitter at the moment is telling Russian bots how to behave. Funny stuff!
  12. I had a track come off of those mini tippers once a few years ago, on hire, had to get the fella out to sort it. Is it the sort of thing that even a simpleton like me could manage, should it happen again in the future?
  13. Could you do another week now?
  14. Scrubbed up bloody well whatever it is.
  15. Two weeks at GCSE, two weeks at A-level, when I was at school. I did two weeks in the kitchens of a local hotel in the first block, and they gave me a job off the back of it. Since I already had a job when the second block came around, two friends and I went and volunteered on the Dorset steam railway for two weeks and had a little holiday instead.

    Jokes???

    One of my son's (age 5) favourite jokes at the moment, I'm not sure if he understands it though... he might just like it because of the funny voice I put on. A man goes into a bakery in Glasgow and points to one of the tasty looking treats in the display case. "Is that a cream cake or a meringue?" he asks. "No, you're right," Agnes replies, "It's a cream cake!"
  17. ...are you just quietly skipping over Stevie P's very specific question there?
  18. Speaking of Tate, something I find particularly funny at the moment is the angriest and shoutiest of the right wingnuts currently questioning Tate's gender at birth... saying that his sloping shoulders suggest that he was in fact born a woman... And Tate himself is currently angry and shouty about the raciest of racists saying that he is too black to be British... Tricky to feel sorry for him, to be honest.
  19. Gosh, I hope not! As I'm up the hill and my wife is in the drink...
  20. Have you got any specifics on that? I honestly don't follow anything they do, but I always thought that the idea behind the service they offer was solid, and entirely necessary for certain situations... but I can absolutely see how it could be abused by walty types. It's the same as any volunteer service I'd expect, you'd get people showing up who genuinely want to help out in a shitty situation, and you'd get others who are only interested in helping themselves... and one of those types of person generally shout louder than the other.
  21. I'll admit, I'm not entirely up to speed with the machinations of the various social media platforms... I'm just not involved with them... but when did LinkedIn change from being a networking site for career-driven people from a variety of sectors into... whatever it is now?
  22. A fella on my arb school intake volunteered with them for a bit, he never told me what colour Power Ranger he was though... 🤔
