The Choirboy said to the Vicar
This music should be a bit quicker
The poor old Vicar gave a sigh
I can't keep up although I try
But it's not very good for my 'ticker'

Molly looked on a dating site
To find a guy who was just right
Blue eyes ,blond, six foot two
Well fit. And wore size 10 shoe

This music should be a bit quicker
The poor old vicar gave a sigh
I can't keep up although I try

The groom couldn't wait for night to arrive
In a double bed with his beautiful bride
But alas the bed it did squeak
Kept the neigbours awake for over a week 
They couldn't be quiet if they tried.

At one time the solution was to emigrate to another country like Australia or Canada but both these countries have been taken over .

Although Australia is still a wonderful country it's not quite as wonderful as it was and it is of course very difficult to get into now .

Still young people can still go and work there for a year which is a great experience for them .

Unfortunately with Brexit the door to working in Europe is closed for young people .

I mean young working people not trustafarians who have sufficient finds to keep them while they swan around the world .

Their excuse is it is not very often a horse gets hurt,  but they obviously don't count the mental torture as hurt.

If man wants to be stupid enough to want to run through a blazing fire,  then let him,  he is doing it from choice,  but why make an animal do it too? 
There is no sense whatsoever in this patheric 'game'  as far as I'm concerned.  It is blatant cruelty.

I agree Mups I had not heard of this before but unfortunately there are parts of Spain which stick to cruel traditions . I think that those who really care for their horses would not do this .in Spain one sees the two sides of horses the fabulous Andulusian  horses proud and spirited  that cost a kings ransom and are looked after like princes . But the other side of the coin is the poor abandoned horses and donkeys left to starve often injured . Some you can see have seen better days .
There are charities who take in these horses if they can get them away from their owners . Dogs are another thing the dogs homes are teeming with hundreds of dogs often very nice dogs that are just abandoned .all these shelters are run by caring people usually expats but some Spanish . Not all are cruel .

I agree.
The people we are thinking about demostrate that they are not superior human beings, but quite the opposite: evil sub-humans.
Perhaps that is one cause of some of the consequences we are beginning to worry about in this country.
We get what we deserve.

Quote from: muddy on Today at 10:32:24 AMIt must be very demoralising for young people trying to get jobs or trying  to get apprenticeships and being turned down or not even answered at times.

When I was young jobs were plentiful .
The boomers had it the best .

People were poor before and like was hard and they are poor again and life is not easy for young people .

This country could well descend into the Third-World.  The lack of interest of many young people is one factor.  Another is the lack of employment and organisations which seem not to desperately need employees, so can pick and choose.  The country, consequently, is now declining in many ways.

Perhaps the most important is our present government which really doesn't know what to do.

If we want to restore the country to something like it once was, great changes will be necessary.  Not the best solution, of course, would be to let things continue as they are.  Eventually, the handouts will decline and even stop.  The consequence then would be that if you want to live, you must make an effort: go out and create work for yourself.  Of course, many will resort to crime and, as our prisons are already full, so I wonder what sort of deterrents they would come up with.

I paint a bleak future for this country.  I sincerely hope that something comes along that will be able to improve on that.  Perhaps a thermo-nuclear war?  If so, then we would all have to start again, hopefully benefiting from improved experiences and intentions!
