    Weekend

    Is that the Hunters Race show? Where you at Denmead little show last week? I'm not sure whether I feel most sorry for the girls or ponies in this heat. My weekend will be mostly running small girls and ponies to polo and horse shows so I guess I know how Mr Starry will be feeling. Enjoy your...

    Going to Chamonix for a day or so

    Before we had children, we used to spend a month each summer climbing around Chamonix - a friend owns a challet in Argentiere just up the valley. Try all the different telepheriques/telecabines etc. A good walk is from Aguille de l'index to lac rouge and there is even a little place where you...

    How old is too old?

    This hot weather is certainly having an affect on El Perv. I think he needs some bromide and a cold shower. I suspect that his testicles are also over full at present. He makes Les seem quite restrained at times.

    O/T Wiper Motor trouble

    Its going to be ~12V. How is the power delivered to the motor? Are there brass contacts on the hatchback door that make the circuit? If there are, these often corrode or become oxidized and you should give them a clean with wire wool, emery cloth or a fine grade of "wet & dry" and then cover...

    Socio-Political question

    Yes, I would agree with that entirely and would put myself in the category that feels disenfranchised although I would not describe myself as left wing. I haven't voted since before John Major became leader of the conservatives. I find that there is little of substance in anything that any...

    Socio-Political question

    Hang on. You ask what some of us mean when we use the adjective lefty. A few people have then given lists of attributes that they associate with the use of that word or a definition to help you clarify its meaning when they use it. You then say that they don't appear to know what values they are...

    Socio-Political question

    I have not proved any point other than you are incapable of forming a reasoned and logical arguement - and you have really done that yourself. I said that you responded in the manner of a lefty. I did not say that you were a lefty. If you cannot understand that difference then I think that...

    Socio-Political question

    Thank you, I am glad that you liked those examples. I don't think you have understood my post, though you have behaved in the manner of a lefty in your response. Did I say that the medieval catholic church was lefty? Did I say that ALL guards at concentration camps were? But, as you obviously...

    Socio-Political question

    Lefties are people who always know the RIGHT answer to everything. They believe that they do no wrong and it is always the blame of others, c.f. 4x4s. They harbour guilt for things they know little about and happened long ago in the past. They think change for changes sake is a good thing and...

    Used Submarines

    But what if that is what the chap in his gin palace has already done? After all, he could have bought a submarine hunter.

    Excellent news about time this Government did something right 10 million scroungers.

    Re: Re: Re: Re: Excellent news about time this Government did something right 10 million scroungers. No, I think I did it more justice than it deserved.

    Used Submarines

    So if you can afford $550000 you are not an "upper crust tawt" and in your "gin palace" already?

    Excellent news about time this Government did something right 10 million scroungers.

    This is just like the assault on disability living allowance. It targets the most vulnerable people who are least able to defend themselves but are often in the greatest need of a little extra money. It is a disgrace and embarassment that this government targets such groups to get an easy...

    Redundancy

    It could be a blessing in disguise, but not a pleasant way to start the day. Have you thought about training to do the new home inspection reports? The timing could be good and it may fit in well with your other skills while allowing you to develop your own business. I just paid a designer £900...
