Re: USA

Arnie, at the end of the day l really couldn't give a toss about what goes on in the USA. lt's what they do that affects me, my family, friends, my country, even bloody Europe that gets up my nose.

Yesterday

Yesterday, for the first time in my life, l read the budget speech word for word. Although a life long 'right leaning Tory' after the incompetence of the past 14 years we desperately needed change. As far as l could see the budget gave hope that things might actually 'change', a light at the end of ...

USA

l feel no elation in that Donald Trump has won. But, at least it was a resounding victory and so should calm divisions over there. All the same it's worrying that so many US citizens still live in the Stone Age with regards to Abortion. It won't take long to find out how Trump intends to stop the Wa...

Best boss's

l don't know why, but, tonight my thoughts are busy with a former boss of mine. He was my Sqn. Leader when l was a Corporal in the 14th 20th King's Hussars. Many years later l was invited (ordered) to attend a Brigade Officers Conference. As we assembled several young Captains amused themselves that...

Re: Solutions

John, pleased to hear that the move went well, that's no mean feat at your age ;) . l see it as wise, finding somewhere away from the crows, off the beaten track even. With a decent 4x4, the odd trip into town for essentials and all's good to go. Any hunting/ trapping ? l know you likes your steaks ...

Re: Solutions

Ah, Pinky, how right you are -?-. From our day of birth until the day we die ... "we are all doomed" ! But it's one thing to take the risk of riding on a train, where any number of things could go wrong: you could get mugged and murdered, the train could crash, rain, a landslide or an eart...

Re: Solutions

Arnie, l am under no illusion, the pendulum probably won't ever swing back, because the earthquake of perverted western liberalism has tilted the clock tower. Our western societies have gone completely off the rails of common sense. As we chat Turkey and Egypt are building bridges, uniting the peopl...

Re: Solutions

Arnie, ... & all ... the few, l hear what you are saying, that my trawler idea smacks of Nazi tactics and is utterly unacceptable ! But l also hear senior police officers telling us that the public order system is in shreds: The police can no longer arrest criminals, because there are no cells t...
