Indians changed all that; even under the burden of being labelled 'Pakis' by their Brit

 I remember when these P shops first opened, they got a lot of flak & racist abuse.

Now, many of them are doing extremely well, & have big businesses.

All because they understood that they had to work hard to get on & succeed.

Too many people, especially young graduates think they deserve high paying jobs immediately after Uni.

All I get is the occasional 'error 502', but no captcha nonsense.

A wise man once told me if you tell people what you donate, it doesn't count.

 Yes, selfless giving.

Wow. I consider Malkovitch to be one of the greatest actors of his generation. I'm biased though because I got to see him live many times before he was famous and met him personally. What happened?

 Yes JT, I agree.

He was superb in 'Portrait Of A Lady'.

“ Nyezhov “ ?

Went to live in Siem Reap and drifted off the forum, don’t believe he has been reincarnated as his style would give the game away.

 Always wondered what happened to him, his humour was always spot on. Made me larf a lot

you are not accepting money "under the table"  from someone here to keep trying to get rid of this subject,  are you ??? ????

 

Nope, but if we don't keep on topic... etc.

I have a lot I could say about 'her' & many of the other alleged accounts on here.

When they built your house did they silicone the sink in the benchtop? Mine have the excuse that it makes it easier for him to fix things later. 

I said it was new, why would it need to be fixed? 

 

Best not to answer your first question, off -topic & all that...????

Nope, no silicone used, & around the gas hob the silicone is intermittent.

I don't think a lot of the wiring is correct either, but that's for the future.

Continuing to rain, the fish in our pond are loving it.

They're up to 500gms now, since we bought them in October.

Do you live up here Rob?

You have my vote for MOTY.

After you finish your traineeship that is. 

 

Ask you builder to show you his spirit level. They are too lazy to use them, always do the drains by eye, and the result is, the drains don't drain.

Thank you Bobby, your support is noted ..

When the house was being built, the only time I saw a spirit level it was covered in plaster & lying on the floor.

Surprisingly, the doors are all hung correctly.

Perhaps we could have a WOTY? ⚓

There are many candidates.

Or TOTY....best trolling story?

On another forum, many years ago there was a thread from a guy who alleged he'd bought a new Audi.

It was all bolleuax, but made for interesting reading.

Back on topic....????????

Still raining, but it's nice & cool.

Allegedly, the builder is coming round tomorrow to sort out the drains, which don't do their job properly.. i.e, drain. ????

Doubt he'll come though....????️

Holler. 

This looks ok:

Ebert gives it 4 ⭐, so it should be worth a gander.

Stella Artois, what a magnificent pint that was.

I bought a bottle from Makro a year or so ago, lower strength, tasted like shy**.

Levi stay press trousers. ben sherman shirts with a pleat on the back and a hanging tab, sabre jumpers and crombie overcoat or a harrington jacket, dr martin boots, would have been late 60's early 70's

Looked a lot smarter than all those hippies, unwashed dreamers.

Loved my DM's, Cherry Red & I was constantly polishing them. For which I had the pish taken out of me!????????

@4MyEgo

Take it easy mate, speaking like that is heresy & you'll get burned at the stake or worse.????

You have to be afraid, that's part of the plan, so that the pharmaceutical companies rake it in.

Why not make potatoes out of meat, or Brussel sprouts?

I say that, coz it seems a bit odd that if one doesn't want to eat meat, then copy it?

There was a post about this in the last 6 months I think.

Try doing a Google search, as that function on here is rubbish.

If you can't find it, try pm'ing one of the mods.

Let's change the subject, eh? We all know what'll happen after all. 

This is on topic - sort of, coz there are monkeys here.

Matty Hancock says there's an outbreak of Monkeypox in the UK.

Vaccines at the ready boys....????????????
