Random Irritations

The media does not think you need to know.

Tbh nowadays the BBC would probably describe the D Day landings as provocative.

The media do want you to know thats why the clock was in the news 7 odd years ago when it was actual news as opposed to very old news that it is now.

The smug smuggers on Ch4 Help We Bought A Village or Chateux DIY or similar. Basically you bought a pile of rubble for tuppence and now flounce around like you're Lord & Lady of the Manor.

Smug smuggers.

If you buy a chateau does that not literally make you lord/lady of the manor?

Dunno. Knew the spelling looked wrong though but couldn't be bothered to Google!

Because it is relevant to the current situation. You cannot negotiate with people whose stated objective is to wipe you from the face of the Earth.

Both are correct. But by any spelling it's a French manor house

I thought your spelling meant they did up an old toilet

Relevant how? The suggestion was that the media are keeping it quiet. That rubbish, it's just old news.

I had to Google it...quietly as it seems not knowing means I'm a certain type...

A doomsday clock in Tehran counting down to the day Israel is destroyed...I think!

I'm a bit disappointed when I land on a thread that I find very interesting,
make my comment on it,
wait for a response,
and then the thread falls off the face of the earth.

 

[AmandaJR]

Actually just re-read Ian's post and think the reference to "sort of people" isn't for those unaware of said clock rather than those who put it up.

So I could have just asked on here and left google - especially as it kept just telling me what the time is in Tehran!

 

[GreiginFife]

The Islamic Guard basically set up Hezbollah and Hamas as a means of destroying Israel from “up close and personal” as it were, it should come as no surprise to anyone what kind of people they are. Clock news or no clock news.

I had exactly the same last week. Massive bag of chips for four folks and a Large curry. £6 later and the chips were stone cold. Spent most of the night watching the kids do Martial arts and I could have ate me toenails. I was proper bogged off.

Says the guy who flounced and deleted his account only to return a year later!

I didn't moan about it anyway, I simply said this is a big reason I never play in a roll-up. I am completely happy with this decision.

Right then, who was @3 jabber ?

 

[KenL]

Well looks like it’s properly kicked off in the Middle East and Iran has got involved now - the poop has hit the fan

Could get political.
