And I thought your cellar was stacked with wine. Or have you drunk it all?
Woke and in favour of a functioning NHS and criminal justice system, benefits for the less fortunate, decency and honesty. So delighted to have got rid of the Tories #FBPE

And I thought your cellar was stacked with wine. Or have you drunk it all?
Stuff just gets overwhelming sometimes. If you can look at yourself and think that is a kind and decent person, you are a winner in life. I think you can.
I can relate to almost every part of this post. I'm pretty private and find it difficult to be that honest, but I've found support on here that has really touched me. Remember to look after yourself first and foremost, and the rest will be easier.
Hi wren. You're new to me but I see the best people follow you. Look after yourself. And never forget how to smile.
Should be the department for wtaf. ..?
For law, go to David Allen Green and those he responds to. Peter is great, but he's a political communicator rather than a legal commentator. Imho
Might be nonsense - had a quaff myself!😉
I also strongly recommend looking at the blue sky legal bods for proper analysis of the reality when numpties wang on about legal stuff. I can point you at a couple of good starting people...
And the sad thing is politicians have learned to go for the 5 second clip rather than the proper presentation of an argument. Therein lies fuckage and trump's popularity. I despair at times, but do my best to educate people in real life!
The BBC was always a propaganda wing of the government. This used to be essentially benign for us (eg ww2). A completely revamped structure, mandate and management is now required as a matter of urgency following their failure to challenge opinion against expertise. And it's getting worse.
I am a bit of a news junkie. Some years ago, I knew the real details of a couple of news stories and saw how inaccurately they were reported. I now assume reporting is wrong, but try to sense what is the truth. It's not necessarily poor reporters, just failure to spend time to understand?
This place gives a great insight into what is really happening. It is so sad how broadcast media has largely failed the UK. In particular, the BBC should be ashamed of itself for its failure to provide "balance"
See you in 3 hours then! 😉
Timeline cleanse
This is brilliant...
I hope today goes as well as possible and you feel encompassed by love. I am so so sorry.
Oi, you're meant to be patient and wait for the first frost before picking. Or is that why there aren't many left when I go hunting?
It was tongue in cheek. Anyone with Trump's body would be at risk.
It's more probable Putin gave him something healthy, but Trump's body reacted badly.😉
They did have a body double. Sadly he died after a massive myocardial infarction.
Many a happy hour spent rummaging around the ferrets! Never leave without a ferret shackle.
Cannot tell this lot how valuable their explanations are to a big swathe of us on here as replies muted, but they open ones eyes as to the misreporting of all legal cases in the public eye.

Filled in the form from my MP, - but it is so un-nuanced. Priorities include Brexit, immigration,NHS etc. A priority of mine is immigration, but that safe routes should be established and asylum seekers welcomed and rapidly integrated into our socioeconomic culture. Ask better questions?
It's so much worse than that. It is the casual use of the concept that history is written by the victors, whilst just assuming they are the victors. It is utterly disgusting
I can only wish you as many of those moments as you clearly deserve.
Hard boiled eggs are a favourite...
Suspect I'm older than most of you, so I could volunteer as...
🤣 It's hard realising one is not invincible.
After years of problems, I discovered drugs!
Lucky you. Mine was fucked when I was thirty - though all fine in my sixties!
Makes the card reusable - what's not to like?

All the best wishes for your mum and you all.
Having laid in the road with a fractured femur for two hours whilst the police begged the ambulance service to send someone after I was randomly attacked, I'll never forgive them either.
Ditto
Don't worry, there will remain evidence of your presence for years to come! In my experience.
Sex?
And only half mashed with raw lumps
Agree!
Tesla cars may not have become anything without his investments
To be fair, Elon was rather better at playing with inherited wealth than Trumpty Dumpty.
It just doesn't work. The cybertruck played to his demographic and has been an unmitigated disaster. The other businesses make more sense for his alignment to gov
From what I gather, European leaders are massing around Ukraine's leadership in the Trump meeting. Trump's only agenda is that he feels loved and respected because he was denied that as a child. Putin's win could be very short lived. 🤞🏽
Fuck knows why. He's the Gerald ratner for the brand.
Is there a point when these people will realise they are actually in a tiny minority? Most humans are fundamentally compassionate
Operator, yes, I’d like to report a murder.
For those not in the know, DAG is a world expert in the validity of the phrase "enshrining in law"
Tesla pre-existed Musk and he doesn't look long for this world! Just maybe that brand will recover from a temporary fascist owner? I wouldn't go there though
Always useful to check in on the news occasionally
Ghost written by?....
Evening BP. Looks like you've confused your nav lights?
We threw a couple of the RYA yacht master books at him which he devoured and asked lots of questions. Also got him involved in passage planning and every element of boat handling, so he's already there really.
I would pottering down to Clacton to do it, but suspect there would be a long wait
Night old girl
Absolutely loved it and was a real asset for two old boys in our late 60s! I'm no sailing expert, but it was great fun teaching some core skills like knots, line throwing and sail setting. Music PhD, so an interesting character as well. He's signing up for a day skipper course!
Left in the capable hands of my brother who is now in Combarra - Very jealous! He's got another week before the owners appear. Work commitments unfortunately - got a business to run and elements are difficult on board.
Abandoned ship last Thursday - back in UK. Sadly ran out of my available time☹️
A friend has one - stunning dog and lovely character. Takes some exercising.
Been there, done that! Late night visit to the loo after a few sherbets and selected wrong door in a hotel. Locked out of my room stark naked.
I don't know how well you know the rias altas, but I will forever think of Ares as the wet place. Having returned to boat and changed to dry clothing, we went ashore again to encounter their "Bull Run". Another dowsing! But how joyous
I have always maintained that anyone who steals my identity would do well to get away with a small loss 😂
It's so irritating sorting everything out again - some things are smooth, but Barclays is impossible. You can only have one mobile device registered, and have to use the old one to allow the new one. Yeah, right.
Re Orca... Don't really know - just saw the interaction reported on GTOrca app and thought "That's where we were"!
And getting to grips with new phone!
We crossed from bel isle to Cedeira a week ago. Basically fine, but the swell was really messy. Cedeira to Ferrol move coincided with an orca contact within a mile at same time - nothing heard on C16. Crew/passenger changes, so currently pottering and in Coruna now
No problems crossing Biscay apart from a messy swell, but a simple slipway landing was too challenging and carefully protected phone in pocket was fucked. Now on new phone. Hello all, how you doing?
We came to the same bar where my brother was last year when we lost to Spain in the men's version. He went around congratulating them all and was presented with a Spanish flag! Sadly, there was limited interest in this match from the locals, but it was still hugely friendly. As it should be
Spent the evening in a Spanish bar with really friendly locals in Galicia. Good game, and fun to the end
I'm a bit sad this thread is just us - the joy of blue sky is random interventions going off on weird directions. But you are brilliant on here. Thank you, and goodnight. (Should I use the heads, or just piss off the stern downwind?)
There's always a use.
You have to find a use for those poor leftover bits of line. It's like Battersea dogs home rehoming
Looks very pretty - but surely a sheet bend performs the same function? Meanwhile, I have invented the Biscay melon knot..
I didn't thank you for this offer - but hopefully we are sorted. ♥️
Wtf is a Carrick bend? I know bowline, clove hitch, round turn and two half hitches and prussic loop from climbing days. And sheet bend. And reef. Pretty much a bdsm pro?
There is a huge joy to be derived from teaching simple skills like knots and line throwing whilst learning new understanding of music.
There's a very complicated story as to why we have been let loose on this boat, but it all starts with music. And Ealing. Brother, skipper, is a professional fartist at the Spanish ladies Or flautist?
Our press ganged cabin boy with no previous experience of sailing is a teacher with a PhD in music... So we're having fun with noises!
In last night's winds we were obviously next to the noisiest halliard slapper!
Still in Brittany. Went from La Roche Bernard across to Crouesty before the storm, getting a bit of west in on basis of forecast. Out of here tomorrow to Huat then bel isle anchorage. Off to A Coruna thereafter, orcas permitting. Forecast looks perfect and swell should have died
Spot on. But why do Western governments continue to allow such leeway - that is what really confuses me. Why. And why are protests considered so inflammatory?
I don't quite comprehend the continuing pussyfooting around the Israeli government. What happened to their ethnic brethren will be a stain on humanity forever, but that gives no rights to repeat the hell on others.
At 14 I was heavily into DIY...
I hope you were gent enough not to charge corkage.
And I'm sure you tried your best to correct that illusion.😉
For the benefit of doubt, I should clarify that this thread is entirely about saving people. And that last bit of cling film should do just that.
Ooh posh. Ice rinks in place of bike sheds. And who was RD?
Would a whole roll wrap Farage? Just trying to help...
Well, pre internet, anyway...
Isn't that how everyone learns? 🤣
No dilemma really. 99.9 percent of people are good at heart, though some have been waylaid.
Good on you. Whatever subsequently transpired is irrelevant.
It squeezes into every convo
I've only done an inflatable doll - and as a teen that wasn't too bad. She never came to life though☹️
I've just realised I'm a bit conflicted on this. I would always help a fellow human in distress, but I also have a sleep technique when under other stress of imagining clever ways to assassinate certain public figures. But they are always quick and painless!
Snap!
Imagine being the guy who didn't save a child's life when they could have.
