Nasty Paint

A perfectly pleasant terrace of fairly new houses, paintwork fine, won't need painting for several more years...... then a philistine decides to paint his woodwork white.... and spoil the whole terrace...

there's always one....it might have been worse

thank God that stone cladding has gone out of fashion.

the pity of it is that he probably thinks he's added value to the house.

major source of bullshit in Dorset

In response to the refusal of planning permission for wind-chimes in Dorset

Mike Cheshire of Ecotricity , major source of bullshit in the county , said:

"It's disappointing that North Dorset District councillors seem set on rejecting new sources of green energy for Dorset."

This means Dorset is still one of the only counties in England completely reliant on other parts of the country to keep its lights on, with no major source of energy of its own.

Mr Cheshire is telling a porky, a big one.... Dorset produces oil and gas... Wytch Farm on the fringe of Poole Harbour produces energy in quantities that make the wind industry's contribution look piddling...it produces probably 7,000 cubic metres per day

Even the little nodding donkey near Kimmeridge, which has been pumping oil since the 1950s, is currently producing 65 barrels per day (10.3 m³/d). The oil from that little well would probably provide as much electricity during a year as the proposed subsidy generators ( a claimed 9.2MW peak output. )

Mr Cheshire would be better off working in the field of methane production by anaerobic digestion...bullshit is useful there.

Who is she?

'Nikki' 'Sinclaire'..... who is she* ?

her details on the EU page gives her birth details as

Born on 26 July 1968, London

A search of the registry via Ancestry.com reveals no such person born in England in that quarter of 1968, not in London or any other place.

Sinclaire is not a common name, just one birth is listed in England in that quarter, Neil, in Yorkshire.

There was a Nicola Sinclair ( without the e ) but born in Hampshire, not London.

In a bankruptcy case her name was given thus;

SINCLAIRE, Nicole Caroline, also known as Nikki Sinclaire,
lately known as Nicola Caroline Sinclair,

so which statements are true, name, date of birth ? place of birth, all, some or none ?

How do you check if a politician is employing a close relative if the politician is using an assumed name ?

Nigel Farage asked of Rumpy-Pumpy " Who are you"

he didn't get an answer, neither did I when I asked the question of 'Nikki'.

* What would be the situation under the new 'Hatethinkcrime' laws for saying nasty things about a lesbian if she/he/it was in fact a transvestite bloke called Gary ?

Friday Music... Tuesday

Ruby Tuesday.... not the shouty Stones version....

Friday music

A favourite band of mine; usually it is the clarinet playing of Larry Shields that I follow through a number.... but on this track it's the complex rhythms that the drummer manages to conjure up that grabs my attention.

and talking of conjuring.....

What news today ?.... well in The Land of The Religion of Peace it seems they approve of Paul Daniels about as little as they do Jack Daniels......here

......and we are told that this culture is somehow 'enriching' when it reaches our shores....

...... makes a city 'vibrant' so I hear.

they just don't think....

A commenter on Conservative home, following this statement and article

asks..........I wonder if our regular poster "haddock" will make a comment here?


Oh dear dear dear, don't these headline writers/idea specialist have any knowledge of the coarse and smutty sub-culture of our land ?

mMe ?

Comment about a lady's fishy box ?

Couldn't possibly.



These people, with this level of thinking skills, want to run our country. ...

........ be afraid.

I wouldn't piss on one if he were on fire....

POLICE POWERS

Police will have powers to enter private homes and seize posters, and will be able to stop people carrying non-sponsor items to sporting events.

police enforcement of a supplier's monopoly ?.... for fuck's sake just how low can the police sink ?

No wonder the police in England have lost the affection and respect they used to earn from the people they protected.

An Englishman in his Castle has a similar story about those you wouldn't piss on if they were on fire.

And we fell for it.......

from the leaflet issued by the Labour government in support of a Yes vote in the 1975 referendum.



and people still believe what politicians tell them......

Man from Fife fucks the economy of a country

What is it with people from Fife and other people's money ?

John Law .... Economist

Gordon Brown ....useless wanker

Change

Does anyone believe you will get anything worthwhile from this guy ? The change you will get is the equivalent of loose change, and not much of that.

Play the spot the difference between parties;
.... on Europe.... do you see any ?
....on NHS ?
....on Overseas Aid ?
....on War in Afghanistan ?
....on Immigration ?
....on Islamification of Britain ?
....on printing money ?

help out here, my eyesight isn't what is was but I can't see a bit of difference.

Loose change is what you will get, a bit of loose, non-committal change of current NuLab policy to make it future BluLab policy

There is a party with policies that would change things, not loose change,
the full Pound Sterling.


Change!.... the same stupid, facile, wet soppy mantra that worked for a wet soppy President.
The boy Dave has not the intelligence to work out that he is not going for the post of US President nor are we in the USA. The lack of cretins, in the audiences of meetings he attends, who shout yeah ! right ! way to go ! Whoooo ! at every fucking silly trite utterance should have given him a clue as to the character of the nation he is talking to here.
What a twat,

Support your conservative instincts and vote for UKIP, much as I fear five years of Brown I suspect this little man will take us down exactly the same path to the same place, the same destination.
It doesn't matter if you walk down the right hand edge of the path or the left hand edge, time to get off that path.

There is a party heading in a better direction.
They need your help in path building.

Old Christmas Day

studious robin.

Today is what my parent's generation here in South Wiltshire called " Old Christmas Day "
so here is a festive robin to mark the occasion.

This particular robin came and introduced himself as we set up to fish in Poole Harbour, he was rewarded with some crumbs from a sausage roll but he wasn't too interested in the food, he seemed to enjoy company. For three hours or more that we were there he kept returning to hop around near us, watch what we were up to and chill out in the chilly weather.
Fluffing out his feathers against the cold he is intent on learning how to bait up with ragworm by watching how Bruv does it.

It is strange how this little bird has worked his way into the British way of life, when I was a kid we all used to go out bird-nesting, seeking out nests and watching the cycle of building, laying, hatching and flying off; we used to take an egg from a nest to add to our collection, pricking a hole in the shell and using a grass stalk to 'blow' the contents.
No boy ever had a robin's egg in the collection, lore had it that a crooked little finger would be yours for life for such a wicked deed. Other eggs were taken as food, moorhens and coots on the local lake lost many clutches of eggs to hungry boys away from home when hungry, which in the 1950s, was at most hours of the day. Wild food, boiled up in an old OXO tin over a wood fire, scrummy indeed.



No we didn't catch anything.

the kick-off ?

Will this be the kick-off ?

"Islam4UK - which calls itself a 'platform' for extremist movement al-Muhajiroun - plans to parade through Wootton Bassett, in Wiltshire, in the coming weeks."

The muslim protesters may well find out that many of the same gentle old people will be there to meet them.... but they will have lost their gentle demeanour.

I shall go along, ( to watch of course ) if I get wind of the timing, as will many others.

Historically many improvements to our life have started out in the sleepy towns and villages of the West Country.... The economy built on wool in medieval times, the Industrial revolution in Cornwall, the recognition of worker's rights in Dorset..... not in Northern towns or cities but among the yokels in the West.

The answer to everything,.......

42

The answer is well known

This year 10th of October

101010

equals 42 in binary notation.

Perhaps everything will become clear then, including the biggest mystery of the universe, that is, why anyone would vote for that cunt Brown the Ruiner.... and why anyone ever thought that wet fucker Cameron would be any better.

Seasonal greetings.......
