Quote from: klondike on April 05, 2026, 08:03:42 AMThere is talk of the Yanks sending in ground troops. If they do expect it to get worse. They have a very poor record in this sort of thing. Think Vietnam or Afghanistan. That one is the main reason we are getting the dinghy boys years after it ended.in their defeat.

Trump was elected specifically on the promise there would be no more  crap like this.

Most of those dingy illegals come from Africa .
I don't think America has been the cause of any Africans illegal  coming to the U.K. 
AFAIK none came from Vietnam which is a pity in a way as the Vietnamese are hard working intelligent people who seem to do very well in their adopted countries .
I expect there are some from Afghanistan which we could well do without .

I have been getting a ridiculous amount of spam in my emails for the last few weeks.   Before this, I only got the odd one now and again,  nothing like this.

Anyway, a strange thing happened on my Laptop last night.   I received a notice saying my GMail account had been suspended??    What on earth's that all about?

So I turned my Desktop machine on,  and my  GMail on there is perfectly alright,  so surely the account can't have been suspended can it?

I don't know what to do,  as there is no GMail on my Laptop now?  I daren't use the Laptop at all now,  incase there is something nasty been planted on there.

(This is the machine I just had the new battery fitted a week or two ago).

Good afternoon to you.
It was windy all day yesterday,  but by the time I went to bed last night it had increased even more.
It has blown over two of my dustbins,  and a quite large Camelia in a tub.
It's still blowing now,  though not as bad.

Thought you'd be interested in my bins.   :grin:
