If you want to read a fuller explanation then please pop over to the blue side for a fuller post on the matter.

Re: What AM I doing Today in the World?

I took six cuttings off my Coleus plant which has now reached a great size and I will be sad when it has to be binned as it looks superb at about 20" across and full of colour. Hopefully some of them will strike and I can keep one, my daughter has asked for another so if they all take root then...

Re: Central & Northern Ports

I think that is the general idea RS, if everything is not trying to get through the channel ports then the traffic problem will be seriously reduced, it should have happened years ago to be honest. Also if we do get that 'Northern Cross Rail' link as Boris has promised then cities like Liverpool, Ma...

Central & Northern Ports

Interesting to read that one of the benefits of Brexit will be a transfer of goods through Central and Northern ports giving a big boost to those areas. I was surprised to find out that there are more goods shipped through ports like Hull, Grimsby and Immingham than through Dover. The other advantag...

Unbelievable

For anyone with Netflix I have just started to watch a new series called ‘Unbelievable’. I am only up to episode 3 and so far it has me gripped, it is about the hunt for a serial rapist, but I will say no more so as not to spoil it. However what has come across very clearly so far is the awful traum...

Re: From the Island (again)

I would go along with the aquarium fish dumped in the lake theory, such things happen here also, I would further doubt if they could survive a severe Winter.

Re: UN + Greta

You have a good point about a birthrate moratorium, unfortunately it is not the Western nations who are responsible as our birthrates seem to be declining, but rather the third world countries who populate the planet on a vast scale. Whilst the West could probably feed and cloth more people the thir...

Just for laughs

A man and a woman travelling on a train and the woman says to the man “every time I see you smile I just want to invite you over to my place” The man is encouraged and says “wow that’s great, are you single?” The woman replies “No I am a dentist” Some people are like Slinkies … Not really good for a...

Re: What AM I doing Today in the World?

We have a similar area famed for rough crossings LLL, it's called the Irish Sea between ourselves and Ireland, I have had some scary crossings during the Winter months.

Re: UN + Greta

I totally agree, a child who has no experience or understanding of what she is mouthing off about, she is just a puppet and a mouthpiece for others, namely the 'Climate Change' lobby and who is paying for all of her globe-trotting activities? She has probably produced more CO2 in her short life that...

Thomas Cook Scammers

For any UK reader affected by the airline closure, already the scammers are phoning people up pretending to represent the airline and offering them a refund and guess what? They only need your card details and the 3 digits on the back. Most will know its a scam but at a stressful time your guard may...

I particularly value your input, Horus, because a lot of the fruit we get now originates in Africa, and I know you are our resident expert on Africa! :up Kind of you to say so RS :) I would not say expert, but rather knowledgeable of Africa, believe it or not I often find myself explaining to some ...
