I din't grow up in ampsher and loved visiting Nanny Eastleigh (couldn't pronounce 'Drabik') and being called a 'nipper'. My favourite bar none thing that people darn ere say is: "Wah!" Some of yous don't even know that you do it. It's quite endearing you carrot crunching oiks.

I used to order swodfish when we ate at 2eyes in Shirley. Nothing special but better than quiche. 'Endangered' species aside (that's another thread imho) our diet is very much like that of reiligion. It's mostly down to accident of birth; you're born in Italy chances are you are a Catholic, your'e born in Spain chances are you're a Catholic, you are born in Ireland chances are you are one of two religions. Intolerance of other cultures, religions and people in general is the cause of much more barbaric acts than killing a few dolphins, 'man' has actually attempted to wipe other 'peoples' from the face of the planet! 'Man' ultimately does what 'man' bloody well wants to. It's not nice and I would like them to stop doing it, but I am sure there are things that I do that the Chinese would like me to stop doing. I commented earlier on vegetarioanism, but by definition I think a veggie has more right to condemn this than any of us meat eaters, in fact I am sure some veggies would offer us much more salient and less hypocritical overview on the whole killing other species subject. just mho of course.

I'll help you put it on.

Ah Oxford, have you played the Wheatsheaf yet? Great pub.

Anyway I am/was more perplexed at the news that they murdered that poor chap the other week. Then again I can't even remember his name, so what does that say about me I wonder? Maybe we all love being 'outraged' every now and then, it's an English trait perhaps, I don't know but we all seem to do it every now and then. maybe it's something they put in our food?? btw I tried vegetarianism a couple of years ago, and to be completely frank, it was a horrible experiance. I never felt full, I literally had dribble running from my mouth when I even thought about meat (in all of it's forms) and the worst part of it all was the pungency and acridity of my farts. Now then, I quite like the smell of my own farts, but these were truly disgusting. Never ever again will I put my body and my family through that.

PES, here are some of the highlights, with some piped fans on the other vids: http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=freewebtv#p/u/1/dapIp2PLFVI

My mistake, I meant SWF or The Forum Match to those involved. tbf it was kept fairly quiet on here. It was aday back in May when a bunch of idiots took tothe St Mary;s pitch, and excitedly like a bunch of kids proceeded to kick a ball in the general direction of the goal. The 'away team' took an early lead through a very dubious penalty decision. they were full of themselves going in at half-time, but the 'home team' manager (Dubai Phil) knew exactly what he was doing and wiated until just a fw minutes before the final whistle to go for the jugular and kill the game off. The highlights are on youtube. Next time you see nickh (away team moanager) online, ask him about it, it's one of his favourite subjects.

In some people's eyes yes. Not mine though. I don't like the act of killing anything but I love a big juicy steak, therefore I accept that someone has to kill it for it to arrive on my plate. I actually like very rare steak too. By the same token I (have to) accept that I am in no position to judge. My point about the turtles was that anothe culture doesn't bat an eye at the method of killing and who am I to preach to them. I'm not sure tbh what the word 'humane' means anyway, aprt from what Google tells me of course.

It's ironic isn't it that one reason that we started to think of Dolphins as 'cute' and 'clever' is that many of us grew up watching 'Flipper' (all say ahhhh), whos program makers actually treated their dolphins appalingly to get them to perform.

tbf I did mean to include products from milk. There is only so much leather that a person can have in his wardrobe too before you start.

Sadly this is true, piped cheering when we score a goal, and when the teams come out. I remember when we played the TSW match, running out of the tunnel to a wall of noise, then turning round to see only about 200 people in the Itchen was quite weird.

'Hair Pie' I have heard of ESB, not I hasten to add, on offer from my Nan.

If the tories get too carried away thinking thinking that the sun shines out of their backsides, they may end up with egg on their faces. The public aren't as stoopid as they think. -
If we (UK) didn't eat cows, would they be allowed to roam freely? Would anyone want one as a pet?

I do like 'The Tragic tale of Arthur Dale', a jaunty little number. Will you be playing in Southampton?

Tesco farm cute little turtles for sale in their supermarkets in China. If you purchase a turtle in a Chinese Tesco store they will ask if you want it killed in the shop or whether you want to kill it yourself at home. If they do it for you the butcher will chop off it's head with one swift blow. Then he will crush the head in an attempt to squash the brain. They do this as a beheaded turtle can remain (effectively) alive for up to an hour, moving it's eyes around and opening and closing it's mouth, presumably in agony. It is not nice, and I would not like to see it done. On the other hand, if Tesco petrol is cheaper than ASDA petrol I will buy my petrol from them, Clubcard Points too. Some things in life we just have to accept, we don't have to like it but we do have to accept it.

I remember that, quite a nasty business. Michael Lush iirc, lived in Hedge End. I worked with his Uncle who told me that the press intrusion was quite unbearable for the family. btw Dog, here's a bit of advice though not sure how you can ensure it doesn't happen to youi, DO NOT GET THE CORD WRAPPED AROUND YOUR NECK, this fella will tell you how much it hurts: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=afa_1183180824 ..and check that the other end is tied securely to the jumping platform, that helps: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=203_1183269671
