In essence, I think that is quite true but a lot of laws nowadays have unexpected consequences don't they? Hunting has never really been about the fox, deer or hare, in a way they are almost peripheral. I think the government got it wrong and made far too much of a class issue that didn't exist...

From what I have seen, the ban gave the sport a massive boost that no one expected. There has been a huge increase in the number of urban people following our hunt. Most came along to see what all the fuss was about, liked what they saw and the people they met and have stayed around. Some have...

Good call Junior. My son and daughter will get to ride out with the Cowdray hunt for the first time this year. Should be a good day and the weather looks set fine for a hack around Petworth. Enjoy your day.

Exactly the opposite. The Barclay brothers want reforms, but the islanders don't, "Preliminary results released earlier by the Returning Officer on Sark showed that only five of the 28 candidates who received the most votes were pro-reform." So Sark is still a beacon of Feudal enlightenment...

I agree with this entirely. The difference between informed consent and presumed consent cannot be addressed, in my opinion, with ethical satisfaction. But where do you stop with this? Remember the Alderhay body parts scandal? On clinical grounds you could make a sound scientific arguement for...

Does the heater knob turn very easily and did this happen suddenly? If so, it could be that the control cable has simply dropped of the back of the knob or at the other end where a flap deflects the air over the heater matrix. I can't remember whether you need to take the glove box out, but it...

I love this argument. If they are obviously so bad, why didn't the current government change them? Was 11 years not long enough to forsee the consequences and take alternative measures, or did Brown actually believe that he really had put an end to boom and bust?

If you are contributing to a pension scheme, it could well be worth your while paying just a little tax at 40% as you will then get tax relief on all your pension contributions at that level.

Either you are deliberately being stupid or just a stroppy fool. I have not changed track at all. You are the one who has been misleading, not me. I never said it was the first authors thesis, I merely said what her thesis was. I also never claimed that the report was about alcohol, did? I...

OK, you obviously haven't even looked at the report or you would know what I was talking about. The first authour is employed by RCSI as a research officer and her thesis is on alcohol and sexual health. She did not have a PhD at the time of writing that report, so by your definition is not...

From the link that you gave. The Irish Study of Sexual Health and Relationships: Sub Report 3 - Sexual Knowledge, Attitudes and Behaviours - A Further Analysis Author(s): Cousins, Grainne (RCSI) / Layte, Richard / McGee, Hannah (RCSI) Actually, I was trying to make the more general point that...

Except that this is a report primarily written by a PhD student/RA who is working on a thesis on aclohol & safe sex. The state has been lnown to manipulate quite a few studies and insist on changes or even halt publication when they don't like the results. That aside, the authors do say...

Mandela and FW de Klerk shared the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize and oversaw the transition from minority to majority rule in SA. Both probably have parts of their past that they are not proud of but were both instrumental in change for the better. For me, the bravest and most outspoken voice against...

If this advert is not suitable for viewing by children as the product is a fatty gloop, why are Heinz showing it being used for making the childrens lunch? That is certainly inappropriate.

Go on, I won't complain :D I hope you get something suitable soon, I know what it is like to be made redundant. Perhaps I didn't put that very tactfully earlier, but there are plenty of people who dislike the construction industry just as others dislike aninal testing, nuclear or defnce...

And a good thing to. These builders have been putting up over-priced, poor quality, high-density and inapproiate developments for far to long. Anything that slows down the concreting over of the country is a great thing as far as I'm concerned. Hopefully, this will last at least until the...

I've heard that andre kanchelskis is training with us pre-season

Well at least this time the manager has been replaced with plenty of time for the new one to prepare before the season starts. Also, the clearout of unwanted players seems almost complete. I'm really pleased to see Mickey given a chance to build a new double promotion winning side again.:lolol:

I used to do a lot of slalom canoeing in the 80s. Travelling around with the boats on a roof rack would occaisionaly cause birds to get blown into the back. You tended to notice them when they started to smell. One day returning from a slalom in Llandysul, coming up a steep right-handed hill...
