What's the speaker in the bottom pic for? Does it make yorkshire noises as it goes along?
"Eebaagum" "Ekithump" "chuffing heck how much"
Don't forget Smoggies are Yorkshire folk.

Ps joking about the wrong section, but here I will alienate many....
I cannot stand:- golfers, anglers , football fans etc.
I have many hobbies but unless I am with a like minded hobbist I do not talk about them.
I too don't like football, I'm a Hull City fan!

Oooh! builder's tea. Yep, love it, but you must be able to stand your teaspoon in it.
Each to their it own, I have my tea weak, so weak I often threaten to put the teabag in the water!.

It was bound to happen with smart meters which is one of the reasons I will not have one.
My mother in law has power supplies by eon next, last week her latest bill arrived, '£55 in credit as read by smart meter. It's a very 'smart' meter as she doesn't have one and I supply them with her readings.

There's some fantastic interpretations of what was said when you have subtitles on. Recently our local BBC newsman said 'these stories tomorrow at half past six' subtitles had it as 'these stories tomorrow at happy sex'!

Scotland should be applauded for their recent brave stand against tyranny.
This time, brave Scotland have ceded their place in the finals to Ukraine (if they beat Wales) because of the war there - oh yeah, there's the Qatar boycott as well.
In 2018, in protest at Russian aggression against Ukraine, they boycotted the finals there.
In 2014, in protest at deforestation of the Amazon, they boycotted the finals in Brazil.
In 2010, uncomfortable with continued inequality in South Africa, those finals were boycotted.
In 2006, still angry about them bombing Shugie's Gran's chippy in Clydebank, they boycotted the finals in Germany.
In 2002, as part of a campaign for a peaceful resolution of the Dokdo Islands dispute, they boycotted the finals in Japan and Korea.
I know that there is widespread disapproval in Scotland of the unfair USMCA deal that replaced NAFTA. If this is not addressed in the next four years, they will boycott the US-Canada-Mexico finals in 2026.
I hope a decent country can host the 2030 World Cup so Scotland can attend. But let's applaud their strong moral stance over the last 20 years.- 3

Typical - just checked my dashcam - it's gone faulty and not recorded anything for goodness knows how long. Ball peen hammer here I come
Tip - Never buy a 'Toguard' dashcam

Sods law.

I've got a dashcam which is motion activated when the engine is off. When you have the cam fitted it's surprising how many times you could put footage on one of those YouTube sites.

We're there from 24th-31st, we're heading south on the 25th!

Hi Andrew
How long is a piece of string?
A smartass once told me it is twice the length from the centre to any of the ends.

Haddock only from a chip shop, thank you.

Fully agree with Mouldy, especially about Barton Broad been confusing. We're on the Broads next month and will be crossing Breydon, as with the last twice we've visited the week before we go I'll be phoning GY yacht station asking them the best time to cross, even though we have the tide times chart.

We are supposed to be on that service from Hull to Rotterdam in May

I'm sure it'll be running again very soon. Best of luck getting to the docks, just three and a half years left before completion of the A63 road works! 😜

The Pride of Hull left the Humber tonight to sail to Holland, it's believed no passengers or cargo were onboard.
-
Our local rag is reporting that the new crew will been paid £2.60 an hour, shameful. The old crew should have upped anchor and anchored in the Humber, failing that sent for a Ukrainian chief engineer!

We had food there in May, and it was very nice.
Memo to self,
When leaving Cantley make sure the boat is actually in gear, giving the throttle more revs doesn't work, especially when the boat ends up sideways on! Luckily only two other boats were there, and I realised my mistake in time.

Why am I not correct.. ??
Yours was the only closest reply back.You're not correct because you claimed if the situation were reversed everyone would claim Hamilton won it fair and square, I'm not everyone and wouldn't be claiming that. You also claimed that everyone diverted away from the answer, I didn't. You're all over the place, still, you are a Verstappen fan!

Still avoiding the answer to the question I asked… Nothing to do how sportsmanship he is… I asked a question.. But everyone seems to divert away from the question…
So I will answer it..
if Red bull had of lost and they went to the stewards with there barrister and demanding unfair… everyone would be shouting and screaming saying that Lewis had won fair and square.. Am I correct ???No you're not correct, and everyone has not diverted away from question, I answered your question shortly after you asked it.

Here’s a question …
What if Lewis Hamilton had won yesterdays race… The exact same scenario as Max Verstappen..
Would you all be up in arms and calling him a cheat and dirty racer….??
I wouldn't have been happy at all. That said Mercedes should drop their appeal and threat of legal action. Hamilton showed a lot of class and good grace yesterday, follow suit Toto. It's happened, move on.

Mine eats raw, turkey is on the menu every few days, so perhaps it makes a difference once it’s cooked, although I buy frozen cooked chicken pieces as training treats. He eats anything I give him to be honest, tripe, minced rabbit including guts, pheasant carcass etc and he like cheese as a treat too. He stole a pheasant breast I’d just taken off bird the other night, was very cross, but he is as gentle as you like when retrieving them when working, so obviously doesn’t associate an actual bird with dinner!
Our dog is also raw fed, he won't touch pork or lamb though. He loves tripe, and the odd bit of cheese.

Fishing At Coltishall.
in Fishing on The Broads
Posted
This year was our third time on a boat on the Broads, every time has been out of the fishing season and every time we've seen several people fishing. Some of them were even fishing whilst their boat was underway, crackdown on them methinks.
