I think they are sharing the cuurent BBS matchday one.

The same one as the BBS apparently....

(Only joking BBS... I appreciate all the work going on behind the scenes to fix this)

Edit: Peter beat me to it!

Us retired people have a lot of time on our hands to post.

No problem glad to be of service:supergrin:

Very good :)

Very low hanging fruit here, but.....the quality of presenter on Talksport.

‘England were in more than a spot of bother in their innings until Jonny Bairstow came in’

He’s the ******* opener, you absolute, ignorant half-wit.

not having threads about conservative MPs

Thanks

inbreds in their hybreds going 20 in a 30Mph zone so they only use their battery and save on petrol.

They combine this with saving battery power by not using indictors.

People not listening properly. I get Google updates on Leeds Crown Court news (ever since we had a dodgy builder) and one the other day reported a husband and wife found guilty of the husband having sex with some chickens and his wife filmed it.

Suspect his mate had suggested to him that he could make a fortune by posting videos on Youtube and he should get his wife to make a video of him plucking chickens.

WHY DON'T YOU LISTEN!

The really sad bit is that the couple have now split up because the husband has heard that Turkeys gobble.

Boom boom. Tish....

The news story of the court judgment is for real BTW. I daren't ask.......

No KFC for a few weeks then?

Websites asking you to prove you are not a robot by picking out all the squares with a traffic light in them or typing in some code that is unreadable.

Funny you say that... I had to do just that about 10 minutes ago and was thinking the same!

I did once spend 15 seconds looking for the treble clef on the keyboard. Could've sworn it was in one of those codes.

:wallbash::wallbash:Our fans going mental over a new strip, why it's not been announced and arguing about it!

For ****s sake:wallbash::wallbash:

Or 'buses. Well, they're always Yank 'buses, isn't it? Well I've only ever spent three days in America and most of that was in an office, so how am I supposed to know what all different kinds of American 'bus look like?

And then when you've clicked on them all and submitted it it turns round and puts another one up asking you to click on all the pictures of cars, then cats, then Belisha beacons, and so on and so on until you disappear up your own derriere in a fit of despair.

Still cringing tbh.

I always thought a "sidewalk" was something to do with Ray Wilkins.

Oh yes, The Crab.

Perhaps you're too thick to know what a bus looks like.

December 1999. 9574 posts and you still don't understand the bbs:supergrin::sob:

He does, but then he forgets again....its his age.

Railway overhead power lines - damaged again and no Thameslink.

Black cab extortion. £16 for Surbiton - New Malden on Sunday (over £4 a mile) Recently UBER did it for £7.50. Lesson learned

At the age of 58 ?

You might think . Maz. Its rare thou to have such a direct comaparison I didnt want to bore people with the whole story but both instance happened last saturday night/sunday morning with my desire to drink with the lads after cricket on saturday and be back on the cricket pitch at noon on sunday so having to pick up the car. The Covid sunday train schedule wasnt playing ball and the Black cabs were just ... there at the station. As I say never again

You're never too old to learn something.

But a black cab would be driven by a salt of the earth racist whilst an uber will almost certainly be driven by some peasant immigrant scum. How did you cope?

£16 from Surbiton to New Malden? If there were any trains that would've been next stop, wouldn't it?

£16 would get me from my house to Glasgow Airport without too much bother and that's about 20 miles and the other side of the city centre. Maybe not on a Sunday right enough but anyway. £16!?

just fine thank you.

Ps am I allowed to take exception to that remark or is that not ok these days

Dunno. What does "remarkor" mean? Also, are you allergic to question marks or summat? Plus, "ok" should be capitalised, as should the "s" in "Ps" *and* the "j" in "just". HTH.

My word,West Country Boy has gone all "Trolleyfied".Way back on the "Good Ship BBS", I reminded the multitudes of the adage "Posterity weaves NO garlands for imitators":lux: God bless you Sir:hi:

F~ck off you syphillitic dago nonce. When quoting, one should use quotation marks.

You talking to yourself again?

You're the Tory voting, brexit supporting stormtrooper. If you can look at yourself in the mirror then that's fine by me.

Am I missing something? He was moaning about the black Cab pricing and promoting Uber, but has got shit for it somehow ??:confused:

His hypocrisy.

I take the first two. Neither make me a ******* fascist. The storm troopers here are the communists on this website

Does pedantry go with the territory, Sorry not directed at you

He would probably see me staring back.

Ooh, I have no idea if stormtroopers are good or bad, so, if you look in said mirror, I identify by the first two also.

that surely can’t be true !

People saying how much their meal costs on a Monday - Wednesday for eat out the help out. We get it, it's 50% off so the food is half price. It makes it cheaper we know.

My brothers are the Star Wars geeks, I can't stand it.

What a terrifying image. :vader:

Could be worse, he could see a mad Paddy with a weighted sock.

Or the top of WCB's head.

Yes, because they're the only stormtroopers that have existed.

Thanks again, Bob.

I have the full version of both AutoCAD Architecture and Electrical. I'm usually quite good at teaching myself new software applications (even if I do say so myself) but for some reason AutoCAD has had the better of me so far. I shall persevere. :)

Then I have been well and truly Whooshed. For shame.

Keep the faith... sounds like you are on the right track.

Not teaching my Grandmother to suck eggs (is that the saying?), but I find Google and YouTube really helpful when self teaching software. If you have a question there is a good chance someone else somewhere has had the same question.

Corporate IT (again).

My dog has got more idea than these c~nts.

Or probably more to the point, better ideas...

The issue is often when some twonk in a senior position comes up with a bad decision that affects things negatively.

Just walked to the kitchen with my dinner plate and halfway there i could feel the blood draining from my face. Ended up standing on the spot waiting for it to pass. Vision went dark, knees started to buckle, nearly dropped the plate and then it went back to normal.

Happened to me once before when taking a piss. That time i got a face full of porcelain sink and a fat scar above my eyebrow.

Annoying.

Stop pissing in the sink.

Or both.

In the same shot.

:D

From personal experience, if you mean by your ‘vision went dark’ that you lost your vision, get yourself down to A&E now as it could well be a TIA.

Undiagnosed, what may follow could be life changing.

Interesting, it merely last a few seconds so pretty sure its hypertension. Got up from the sofa, took a few strides and then it happened.

People who eat their dinner on the sofa.

I have just buggered the cling film. There is no saving it.

Mind your knob on the serrated edge:sob:

Or so I’ve heard.

No table cloth?

F~ck off.

Tablecloths are no good for soggy biscuit, according to El Aguila.

Uncles and Aunties you haven’t seen in a while who say to you: Are you still supporting Crystal Palace?

No. I legally changed the location on my birth certifcate from Croydon to

According to latest research from Brighton University, 18.99% of the male species in the Sussex area have participated in this latest trend.

I’ll ask again, be honest, did you lose your sight to the point where everything was just black?

The very fact that you suffer from hypertension suggests I’m right.

Go to A&E NOW.

The next one could kill you.

Good advice.

It did.

What does TIA mean? Whatever it is, it sounds like a call to 111 at the very least, but your advice sounts like he right one. |

Wankers with wind chimes in their gardens .:jerkit:

Joe85, you can't muck about with your health and the possibility of these episodes being potentially mini strokes should not be discounted. You're a great lad, with a great family and we all respect you and care for you and we all just want you to be okay.
Have you got that tenner you owe me by the way?

This. I will pay the tenner. Lets get one thing off your mind.



(WCB, can you lend me a tenner please)?

A mini stroke. Transient something attack I think

Joe - Blind is right. Don’t leave it. It’s your life mate

I have to admit that one of those chaps looks a bit like me.

We could have a whip round.
I'll set up an account and I'll invest your donations in Bitcoins to double, nay triple the value.

Trust me, call 999 and be honest about your symptoms. Mention TIA, it’s frequently a pre curser to a major stroke.

If I’m wrong, fee free to take the piss, it would still be worth it.

I thought I was pretty invincible.

Thanks Russ UK. I will send my bank details.

Let us know, Joe.


And good stuff, Blind.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Transient Ischaemic Attack.

I had a spell like this a few months back. Sitting in church, suddenly felt all faint and went pale. Don't think my vision was affected but tried to get up to go outside and it wasn't having it. Was practically carried out and sat on the steps, then sent to Monklands A&E where they spent the night doing every test they could think of then sent me home but told me not to drive or operate machinery (Mrs F tried to argue that this included the piano).

The following day the consultant phoned me up and asked me to go and see him immediately. Uh-oh, I thought. But it turned out that he was just dealing with it then because he had a free slot, and no it wasn't a TIA but just a faint spell.

Things that look like a heart attack or a stroke (which is what a TIA is technically) should always be checked out at A&E.

Ok I’m gonna compromise and get an emerg ASR’s appointment tomorrow.

Thanks all.

Good call. Try not to lamp anybody on your way in.

Good luck Joe... Could be a few things, but Blind sounds like he knows about these things.

Back to an annoyance (or more a head scratcher really), why do people who ride motor scooters, as in Vespas or the like, think it is OK to ride them in flip flops, shorts and a tank top, with a 60's retro helmet?

What makes them think if you came off at 30 mph you will be OK because it's a scooter?

I'm sure we all know someone who has come a cropper in Spain or Greece etc. riding these things.

Not saying you should wear the full leathers and full face helmet (although I've seen that also!), but jeans and a long sleeve shirt/jacket might help.

And, maybe, some personal insight to back up what others have said.

My Dad, a bit like me in this respect sometimes, was like a lot of men. He never
visited the doctor. More to the point, he was anti visiting the doctor.

He died at 65 years old. A couple of years before, he had an incident similar to yours in the bathroom at my uncle's house. And ignored it and carried on.

Likewise, Blind.

The Bronchitis, the nature of my job dismissal, and time on my hands to think with this pandemic, and my outlook is different.

Waiting 30 minutes listineng to a recorded message, then getting through and have nobody pick up and the phone go dead.

That's up there when I really need to talk to someone.

Oh, and websites where I am registered to an old hotmail address and I can't register anew or get access to the old email.

"Normalcy."

What the holy f'k did "normality" do to exile itself beyond the realms of realcy?

Knobbers.

It’s complete idiolity.

Plenty of dickheads on motorbikes dressed the same and going far faster than 30,but I get your point.

Hope it all goes well.

Don't forget that tenner.

I'm late to this discussion, but Good Luck, Joe. It's vital you get it checked out. If it is nothing, great. If it is something that needs addressing, better sooner than later. Years ago, my sister used to pass out early mornings, turned out to be low blood pressure and anaemia.

Here's hoping it is nothing to worry about. Stay well and keep us posted. :p
