<t>There is no such thing as society. There is living tapestry of men and women and people and the beauty of that tapestry and the quality of our lives will depend upon how much each of us is prepared to take responsibility for ourselves and each of us prepared to turn round and help by our own ...

What's normal????????

Vesuvius

<r>Well we know what happens to the Brits, they eat macDonalds, Kentury Fried Chicken, Dominos Pizza and die young <EMOJI seq="1f444" tseq="1f444">:lips:</EMOJI> after becoming obese, and having been told to exercise their way out it it all! :yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

Oh Horrah Horrah I am over the Moon! One down, 300 or so to go :-6

Vesuvius

May they all rest in peace.

Vesuvius

<t>I don't watch the programme, cannot stand it, but can't help reading about it...I think the poor lass has been manipulated. She was obviuosly chosen for the 'gawp' factor...and is now paying the price. 
 
Did anyone try to judge her mental state BEFORE she went on? Or, was her fragility ...

Vesuvius

Maybe it was an ice lolly that had half melted??????

Vesuvius

<r>Very sexy eh? Oh well Oscar, depends if you like T.Rex against Raptors :wah: That's how the current political lot look like to me anyway! 
 
Not much to choose between them, load of old cobblers.:p 
 
No chance GB will rise again. Please God! He may be a fundamentally decent chap ...

Vesuvius

Best poured directly down the sink IMHO.

Vesuvius

It is a thrilling victory, I am very pleased. My donations go to children's charities in the developing world, so no, I won't be donating, but really pleased with the news.

Vesuvius

The dying gasp of a dinosaur :-6

Vesuvius

White meat???

Vesuvius

Well, he's not everyone's cuppa :-6

Vesuvius

The French and the Scots always did have a special relationship. Usually in joining forces to fight the English

But I find it difficult to fault since I am of the Armstrong Clan, well half of me is, and I do love the country.

Vesuvius

Nice one Oscar :yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

Vesuvius

<r>Voltaire is also known for many memorable aphorisms, such as: "Si Dieu n'existait pas, il faudrait l'inventer" ("If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him") 
 
But Scotland? And he speaks from the 18th century, and as far as I am aware he never visited Scotland, and had a ...

Vesuvius

Hi and have a good time here. :-6

Vesuvius

<r>Hmmmmm :-3 
 
Tend to agree with a lot of what you write. 
 
Would feel better about Cameron if he would come out of his closet and tell us all he is NOT going to continue to take the £20,000 a year expenses on his mortgage on his home in Oxfordshire! Set an example for example <E ...

Vesuvius

<t>Yes I do remember that :wah: he puts his foot in his intelligent mouth, or seems to, and you never quite know if he is being serious or taking the Michael. 
 
He is excellent on TV.....what the heck is the name of that prog??????? 
 
I don't beleive he is what they call a 'shyster ...

Vesuvius

<r>Or snake <EMOJI seq="1f444" tseq="1f444">:lips:</EMOJI> 
 
But needs must....the Chinese make a really smashing dish of snake, by all accounts, who was it who went round the world? One of the ex Python mob??? Super series, snake is a delicacy, but beyond me to try any, although this is ...

Vesuvius

It's summer :-6 (well supposed to be, not much evidence of that weather wise) :-2 in summer forums die off a bit...they come back when the BBQ's finish!

Vesuvius

Hi and where did you find that picture of me as a baby :yh_rotfl

Vesuvius

heck :sneaky: You are going to upset the 'animals R us' peeps :-6

Vesuvius

They do say his buffoonery is a cover for an very sharp intellect

I like the man too, he seems actually to be honest!

Vesuvius

<r>Hardly a very friendly way to reply to my post by telling me to wake up! <E>:)</E> So both Victoria and Openmind have firmed up my feelings on the subject, which is to say begin with our children. Your words simply confirm that it is they who are the most important. 
 
Teach our children ...

Vesuvius

<t>I strongly feel a dog, cat, mouse or bird is less important than our own human children. 
 
I do believe if we are civilised enough to look after our own, and manage to prevent abuse or death of the children in our or any society, then the net result will be that animals will be treated ...

Vesuvius

Thanks for pointing this out! There has been an insiduous, creeping, underhand control of our society for the past 11 years, and this is but one example.

Vesuvius

I suppose getting slaughtered is as much a matter of freewill as wearing 6 inch heels

Or eating yourself sick. However, could we please start with the drunks, make them pay for treatment, and see how it flows from there :wah:

Vesuvius

Agree wholeheartedly Oscar! Well said! it's really social engineering plus getting poeple to vote for Nu Labour! Although it has to be said the Tories have no policies to stop this rot, or to bring back a return of some moral standards.

Vesuvius

very true Oscar.

Vesuvius

<r>Ok, how about this then.... I don't have a clue how most of you will feel about this rant, but we went to see the new Star Trek movie, Great Movie :-6 
 
Almost spoiled by hordes of people eating popcorn loudly, slurping drinks, getting up for the loo, talking through the film, laughing ...

Vesuvius

Great post Oscar, and I would add only I would love to know the real reasons behind the reluctance for the main political parties in the UK to draw a halt to mass immigration?

Vesuvius

<r>Get up a protest at local councils bullying you to recycle and then dumping the whole lot in the same place <E>:mad:</E> 
 
Going green has to start at the top, and how can you be encouraged if they take this kind of advantage? 
 
Other than that, don't wear Green with Blue :p as ...

Vesuvius

But, something tells me, however dreadful this is, that we must address human cruelty to other humans first, in particular babies, such as baby P.

Reminded us that if Turkey joins the EU, approx 80 million Muslim Turks will be queing to get here.

Vesuvius

No never you and I was talking about my best friend of course

Vesuvius

<t>Oh goody, another mate who loated Blair as much as I do :sneaky: 
 
Actually I am very sad for you Oscar, because having alliegence to Labour all your life it must be a huge disapointment to you and I can empathise with that. 
 
A basically honest man GB may be but he has no ...

Vesuvius

I SO agree Oscar!

I still honestly do not think there is any real danger of them getting into any kind of power though. Maybe a storm in a teacup, and if only Cameron was more OPEN about his policies?????????????

Vesuvius

<t>If we want to be sure we have a so called democracy, then we must sit back and watch. No choice. 
 
He is the leader of a political party which is, like it or not, gathering ground. 
 
Many people say they no longer trust Labour and are not entirely happy with Cameron, some are ...

Vesuvius

<t>I hate to disagree with a mate, :-4 but GB is dead in the water :rolleyes: and I know how much you like him, and basically he may well be an honest man, but he has done so much harm to the country, his fiscal policies were/are extortionate to the working people, and pensioners, he sold our gold ...

Vesuvius

Oh tell me about the moustache

All fine whiteish hairs, but in MY magnifying mirror I can see every little one :yh_rotfl I would rather have the hairs back on my legs, why did they feel they had to move upwards :-2

Vesuvius

Absolutely gorgeous. :-6

Vesuvius

By the way that is one lovely picture. :-4

Vesuvius

Not sure how you manage all that Oscar

I am done in with a 2 and a half year old! After 5 hours I am ready for a nap! Well done you :-6

Yes absolutely spot on!

Vesuvius

Yes, try that Oscar! If it works in the US why should it not work here???? About time the police took such things seriously, your post made me hopping mad!:mad:

Vesuvius

OH saw this, I missed it as I don't watch the prog, he was over the moon about her voice! I can see why now. :-6

Vesuvius

I thoroughly enjoyed that, thanks :-6
