first of all who gave the USAF permission to fly bombers from the UK to Bomb Iran???? i though Star-mer refused such permission... ok i am safe enough in the frozen north  [north of Whitley Bay] but i believe Iran has Drones that can reach London [OK they might kill more muslims that christians if they did... i havent been to London for a while  what does "Yes I have no bananas I have no bananas today" sound like with an Asain accent , or "oi get of me barra"...
as Farage said I think this was a dry run to test how quickly emergency services would respond... but i do believe that the ASAF security will certainly be using live ammo as a standard

Well done Flying Bomb... well done..
 
Some stand on one leg.. cleaning teeth..
I don't.. but I can stand on one leg for a while.. some days I wobbly more than others..

Crabby suggested a step (gadget) a few years back.. I still have it and can still use it..
I certainly would not let my car go... even if I seldom use it..
I do try and walk where possibly... but.... I live in a valley..
If only every road in life was flat and level.. .

20 mph limits are a failure in Wales

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/09/13/welsh-road-deaths-rise-despite-20mph-speed-limits/

It's tricky sticking to 20mph - better to watch the road than the speedo imo

I've seen that mentioned elsewhere. I'm not that good at it and must have a practice. If I can stand at all at 93 I'll count that as a win 

a friend of mine was bragging he had put his shorts on by standing on one leg.. i was amazed, not that he had suceeded but that he had even tried such a feat....i do it sat down easily without bursting a blood vessel...people tell me i dont look my age... well thats because i take grannies advice and as often as is possible i dont act my age... we all march to our own drummers, i wish mine was a jazz drummer but no hes just an ordinary guy... i love hearing folks taking exercise i have been active for most of my life but Covid [i didnt catch it and it never caught me] but the restrictions cost me so much, i love golf, but that time off the course cost me dearly... then two  years ago a friend had a bad accident driving, he said it wasnt his fault the other driver was driving too fast... it made me stop to think.. and being an idiot the day i was leaving to go to India i gave my car away [bloody fool] now i have to walk to the supermarket [but get a taxi home] i cant believe how difficult it is for me to walk... lol.. i am 85... i have been a boxer, a footballer [till i was 40] then i played golf.. now i watch tv [firestick] and hit these keyboards...it is important that we recognise our limits but do everything possible to push them, because when its gone its gone

Good job elephants don't fly 

to be honest [lol] when looking at most of the protestors masks should be compulsary....
two tier policing has always been so.. one of the top highway patrol officers agreed the motorway speed limit if raised to 80mph would lower congestion because vehicles would be on the Motorway for shorter periods... the speed limits were put in place when vehicles were started by swinging on a starter handle.. vehicle safety has improved by so much and driving is so much easier... now if they could do something to stop heavygoods drivers taking ten minutes [i know] to overtake their pals then it would make motorway driving so much easier... yet a tv star was summoned to appear in court for driving at 24mph in a twenty zone... will justice be served by banning him??

That's terrific FB!  When I had a knee replacement last year the physio made me stand on one leg, and I kept doing it for a while.  I must get back into the habit.  I get my exercise going to aqua aerobics classes, you can move so much in water and its painless.

Wouldn't want one on my car. Pigeons are bad enough.

Two of the neighbours have black cars, it seems to favour them.
