Re:Don't start another Date Posted:2022-04-25 11:54:56Copy HTML Look Gramps, you really don't know what the grandkids learned or think...........so don't pretend that you do. What they learn yes because the school sends weekly summarys and the grand daughter at the kitchen table every evening tell us all what she learned that day and all the school business. She is also pretty open on what's on her mind with us the grandparents and with her Mom. It's a close relation. |

Re:Don't start another Date Posted:2022-04-26 10:23:19Copy HTML I sent you a PM. Because there is a PM by your name.

Re:Don't start another Date Posted:2022-04-26 11:29:29Copy HTML Grey explained that you can't see your own, only others. I still can't use the action button or add my picture like you all have with your name I just checked my inbox and there are two messages from you and Mark but no words so really don't know if it's working or not. It also asks for the Group name to send it back but it won't let me enter anything. I put a few words in and sent it back to see if it works. At the old site if you got a message, there was a little icon that appeared at the top of the page. None here though.

Re:Don't start another Date Posted:2022-04-26 11:34:19Copy HTML Wait a minute, all of a sudden the buttons now work and I can edit and delete. Give me a second to let me pick myself off the floor. Still can't add my icon picture though. |

Re:Don't start another Date Posted:2022-04-27 04:08:21Copy HTML So yours didn't work before either? I'm sure it was Grey that got us fixed up. Are you going to try the eastern provinces this year? Finally got ahold of 3 of my good friends from basic training and all are living in Nova Scotia again. Was hoping to take a trip down this year to meet up with them but the way the wife and I am probably won't make it. 56 years looking for them and now we can only talk war stories on the dam phone. |

It would have to be the owner or an administrator, that fixed your problem. I am only a member here. |

Thank you Grey or whoever got the demons that run this thingy. Pete, Dunno if we are allowed up north yet. My fishing buddy hasn't called me either, so I figured we Americans were still verboten. |

Right, I've booked you down as an administrator now, so hopefully that will do the trick |

Re:Don't start another Date Posted:2022-04-27 01:18:52Copy HTML Figures released from the Home Office tell us that 1/3rd of the prison population in Britain is none white. What the actually ethnicity of them all is I don't know but black people only make up 3% of the population. I thought it was more, but no. The largest ethnic prison group for the smallest population here are Albanians but I suspect that will be true for just about every country in Europe |

Of course if a "Cauc" mentions that they will be branded a racist. Of course Albanians are not really Caucasians & have criminal DNA. |

At one time they were asking for proof of virus shots but don't think they are now unless you come via China. I don't know if you could handle the east coast though Tommy because the people are pretty friendly down there and they talk funny to boot. It use to be the Jamaicans here filling the cells but of late with the stabbing and shooting most times I couldn't pronounce their names if I had to. Like the Irish or the Italians immigrates did, they seem to bring their dirty laundry with them and it seems to be years before they change to the new countries ways. |

Re:Don't start another Date Posted:2022-04-28 07:01:11Copy HTML A Pentagon report reveals that $7 billion in weapons and military equipment was left behind in Afghanistan after the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from the country. That includes almost $1 billion of aircraft some 22,000 military Humvees and almost all the communications equipment supplied during the course of the conflictIt includes a total of 9,524 air-to-ground munitions which can include bombs, machine guns, air-to-surface missiles, rockets, airlaunched cruise missiles, carried by warplanes , valued at $6.54 million. 78 aircraft, 100,000 vehicles of various kinds. 300,000 weapons of various kinds, 42,000 pieces of night vision, surveillance, biometric and positioning equipment had also been left behind. Y'know what? Not a head has rolled and Biden should have been shafted for that debacle. I like what Trump said of the general in charge, he said the first time he ever spoke to him I knew he was an idiot. |

Re:Don't start another Date Posted:2022-04-28 08:33:25Copy HTML Heard about it Art but the General have all come on the TV and said it was more expensive to transport it all home again that it was to make more equipment. It will also give a lot of extended jobs to American workers to make more. So there was money savings and a job security program thoughout. Both great things for America and a win-win. |

If anybody else had said this I'd have taken it for granted they were taking the piss, but not you Pete. So, all of the Generals, who screwed up shockingly, came on TV with the most predictable. pathetic excuse possible and you swallowed it? I can't go any further with this one. I still have Tower Bridge for sale if you want it. |

These General were all at one time in control of NATO forces in Europe, or controlling troops in Afganistan or other parts of the middle east so they all know a lot about logistics and costs, but it seems you don't. Tower Bridge is the only one you have left after selling London Bridge, isn't it. |

Re:Don't start another Date Posted:2022-04-29 07:52:01Copy HTML Since when was equipping your enemy with free, ultra sophisticated weaponry, transport, aircraft, night vision equipment, biometrics, body armour, tanks, ammunition by the million, small arms, machine guns, helicopters and god knows what else a strategically positive move? Do you think if we had given Hitler Lancasters, Mosquitoes, P51's radar etc etc it would have been a win win? After all, we could have made more and given our people more jobs, job security and allowed them to earn more. It's frightening to think these so called generals were running anything more than a brothel. Logistics is not the arming of your enemy and since when did costs ever enter an American general's head? YOU DON"T ARM PEOPLE WITH FREE WEAPONRY WHO WILL THEN USE IT TO KILL YOU. Do you think Eisenhower, Patton and McArthur would approve? It would appear that Biden's secretary of state is as deluded as you, as hard to believe as that is, but he's just claimed that women in Afghanistan are better off under the Taliban because there's greater stability and peace. |

Re:Don't start another Date Posted:2022-04-30 08:16:07Copy HTML Some interesting news stories around at the moment taking us away from Ukraine - the Premier of the British Virgin Islands being arrested in the USA on money laundering and drugs trafficking charges and Boris Becker going to prison for tax evasion. You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.
