You paint me as some sort of Bufton-Tufton type figure!

Dave Spart came to mind first

re larger one It was some kind of wooden building, still around in the 50s as some kind of tea roon, cum cricket changing rooms I think

Bensonby, never out of the pub eh?

Arise Sir Rolly Firkin

Amongst all this it is apparent that it is not scumbag dogs to blame but scumbag humans. We can control the breeding and reproductive actions of dogs, but sadly we cannot do the same with scumbag, rubbish. moronic. anti social retards that have these dogs. As a dog lover of many years I know that ...

I thought you'd get the allusion Bensonby

hung by my own petard eh?
Rule one....... get your facts right
it was of course Dick the Butcher.

And for those below the age of 35 the phrase

"I think we should be told",

Is a regular Private Eye phrase, sort of a smile icon from before computer days.
I believe Bensonsby is a Private Eye reader so he should have cottoned on.
you want Debate?

Henry VI part 2 Jack cades speech

Irony check please Barty

I didn't say that at all Barty. I am just intrigued. But I disagree with the phrase...... "anyone can comment on the law with an ounce of authority" we used to call them as did that barrack room lawyers. Now here's one just for Bensonby to comment on with authority :lol: How many Lawyers does it ...

So tell us all Bensonby, just what are your legal qualifications /standing/employment/studies that enable you to speak on legal matters so authoritively?
Surely not just the part time hobby you claim.
I think we should be told.

Well said Nork1!!! Sadly that which many of us perceive to be the problem in society today is barred from open debate . We know what the cause [causes] are, we are not allowed to say out loud for fear of being howled down by a noisy and active minority professing freedom of speech for some, but not ...

6 million passengers using the station? 6 million divided by 352 = 17,045 per day for a 24hr day thats 710 per hour/ 11 per minute for a 12 hr day thats 1420 people per hour/22 per minute crowding onto the platform. predictive accounting from the Royal bank of Scotland it seems that'll be two coffee ...

oft misquoted from Punch magazine circa 18-- and something. "Punch isn't what it used to be and never was" Over the years its has morphed somewhat. Again, Catscratch, if you read my previous contributions to the thread, I also supported the fact that the postmen wouldnt work in such appalling ...

Last bit was meant to be childish...... I apologise for my sense of humour, its the only one I've got. The mess is present day society, that all our elders made Our youth will continue to make it worse no doubt. Only my opinion, to which I am entitled, whether anyone else agrees with it or not. No I ...

<<<pssst.....between you and me....a lot of us rail staff wish BR was still with us.....but don't tell anyone I said that So does the rest of the UK, Are you advocating re-nationalisation? Is this current opinion among railway staff [ working class section naturally]? :) I think we should be told ...

Its interesting and revealing how many that have a go at me always bring up the subject of what newspapers they assume I read. How do you know? You assume I read any newspapers at all? As for respecting ones elders, well, are they not the ones that got us into this mess? [or not depending on your ...

Its not just here either,

"apparently fit young girl"

When you get to my age boy, all women under 60 look fit, its getting out the chair to grab them thats the problem.

Oh him , I think I sold him a motorbike once. On reflection, I think my problem is to do with my perception of the attitude of the liberal middle classes,[as seen on here] The Guardian /Independant reading crew, towards the ordinary working man, by which I mean the people doing the jobs at the sharp ...

To clarify. Paddy and Barty are quite right, and in general I am in agreement with the tone of what they said. but I am not advocate a return to some mythical golden age, the past is past, and often bad, thats why its good to reflect upon it. We pay for services which are very often unsatisfactory ...
