    What pets do you have?

    No pets as such but I do put food out for the wild birds and we get quite a mixed bag of feathered friends turning up every day to feed their faces. Most common visitors are goldfinches though at the moment it's young starlings that scoff the most food. Noise beggars they are too!

    Only reply to chit-chat threads

    Not everyone is socially adept and forum posting, especially on general chat threads, is a very good means of socialising for the shy, introvert or those perhaps with poor English language skills, simply because a forum does not neccessarily require immediate response. If all someone can do is...

    Forum Drama

    Ignore it. If someone says something stupid or provocative, if there's no response, there's no drama.

    What do you do for work?

    I trained as an engineering fitter and in the job I had longest I used to build sirens and whistles and similar air movement machinery. I was made redundant in the 1990's and because of a downturn in engineering I took van driving jobs to put food on the table. I then found a job delivering...

    fracking - david letterman says we're screwed

    In Britain we get half our gas from Russia, piped across Europe via several foreign countries. Yet we have our own shale deposits that we are not exploiting mainly because the Government and energy companies fear protests from the nimby's and the left wing rent-a-mob. Energy is also called Power...

    Debate: Are we winning "The War On Terror"?

    Perhaps this is the most stupidest idea ever......but if the moslems are so intent on having their bonkers extreme state - perhaps we should just let them. And maybe try something even dafter and try actually talking to these people. Perhaps negotiate a line in the sand where we can say "You...

    Best free forums for beginner?

    I wouldn't advise going for paid hosting until you're pretty sure you've got a good solid community behind you. I've had three failed forums over the years and I've seen it very often that most forums might start up well enough just to fade after a few months.

    Decluttering

    We moved to a smaller house in the country earlier this year and have now got way too much stuff. We've taken a good bit to the dump already but I'm going to have to hire a van and get ruthless with the rest of it sooner rather than later.

    In the UK we're never more than an hour or so's drive from the nearest coast. I painted the pic from a photo of my son and myself on the beach at Torquay when he was about five.
