Seems like there was tw4t there with dreads…..a white guy, which to me instantly spells bell end, but thats by the by…..he has a blog where seems to do this kind of thing all the time to ‘challenge local cultures and beliefs’ ‘at 33 and a perpetual back packer’

He sound s like the sort of chap you wouldnt need much of an excuse to give him a punch on the nose!

One cannot underestimate how stupid people can be. It’s almost like they’ve gone out of their way to cause offence.

I play one…..only when i’m cleaning ‘winderrs’!

I’ll get my coat! 🙂

Good to hear my man! Keep focussed lad!

Ellie’s make up was a bit OTT – she looks miles better natural.

However me and the Mrs were thinking exactly the same about the lad in the trilby! Must be a Suffolk thing?!

I do love this place, it regularly has me in stitches….some cat posts about a colleague winning a cool mil and it quickly degenerates into the usual slanging match!

Good look to the woman, i like stories like that! However, what kimbers said on page 1, is she single?? 🙂

POSTED 2 HOURS AGO # REPORT-POST

As long as it still has Mings daughter in it i’d watch it!

500 emails to sort out……one mass delete and i’m done! If its important, they’ll me again or give me a call! Piece of p155!

I’ve never been overly religious, but it seems to me that the Western world in particular at the moment has zero spirituality guidance, just a vacuous mess, of sleaze, dubious morals and celebrity obsession.

I spent a bit of time in Thailand years ago and found it enlightening. We have far too many distractions here and everything seems to be the lowest common denominator. I try to be a little Buddhist / Humanist. Makes sense to me.

I do find my ‘spirituality’ from training, being in nature on my own and strangulation……well not quite the last part!

I believe some sectors are functioning better than others. We’re connected to the building game and things have been bumpy at best, but had some good enquiries and visibility of a few large projects taking us into 2017. Its tough, very tough, but there’s work out there and some of it is quite lucrative. Fingers crossed it keeps gaining momentum!

……my personal opinion is that we’ve been on a steady decline since losing the empire!

You only live once lad, get out and stay out. Texting other men is not acceptable.

I love this stuff…….as it to is credibility though?!

Funnily enough i watched this yesterday:

If it is true, im not impressed!

If you’ve already got it, id take it on the chin. Its got to be better than doing the daily commute?

We dont have one…i miss being b0ll0ck naked on the dancefloor…….

No input i’m afraid, but i aint going to disagree with you on the boring statement! 😉

Yep, im a regular. After a bad accident in Whistler 10 years ago, its the only style of exercise that keeps my back pain free.

Twice a week is all i need.

Can’t recommend it enough.

I do sometimes wonder though whether us **** are at the top of the food chain…we can’t be….we’re idiots really! 🙂

…..Whether we’re invisibly governed by lizards though is debatable. Some of the other subjects his covers does make you think though.

Yes, working for a southern council. I lasted 4 days when i was a student. They were absolutely useless at everything and i later found out that they had an unofficial sick rota! They just used to sit and moan about how hard done to they were and how the managers were out to get them…..yup, those 8.5 hour days were killing them! 🙂

Do it, lifes too short, let them crack on with their politics. Find something more inspiring lad!

Leffeboy, good lad – thats exactly what i was after!

Hey, EVERYTHING is easy when you know how!! 🙂

I shall give that a try and see how it goes. Thanks.

Yep same here – I find the various cliques with people fighting to be the alpha-mum hilarious…
And as for the gym gear, I bet Saucony has never sold so much +size sports kit!

Haha Alphamum in Saucony!

Then they take it to facebook too, trying to out do each other with who has the most wonderful life/childern/family/etc.

Brilliant! I see friends wives and girlfriends showing this lavish display on Facebook stating what they are doing, where they are how ‘blessed’ they are blah blah blah!! Blessed is a particular favourite of mine.

When i pick my nephew up from school the clique is quite obvious and hilarious to watch. You can see exactly who the ring leader is and the subordinates all copy her……the current trend is to wear gym gear to pick the kids up – however said gear has never seen a bead of sweat and the arses, arms and stomachs the gear is covering has never seen a gym!

It’s like watching a bunch of 16 year olds still in silent competition with one another……funny bunch you women! 😉

Smile, be polite, have a beer with them, get some ammo and then post it on here! That whole school yard clique fascinates me!

The usual answer to questions like this is…

To the north: Ramsbottom, Prestwich, Todmorden, Hebden.

To the south: Marple, New Mills, Hayfield, Whaley

To the east: Glossop, Saddleworth

To the west: Don’t bother.

If you’re working close to Victoria then the north/east options might be best commuting-wise. The trains from victoria serve Littleborough, Todmorden, Hebden, Saddleworth etc. Trains from the south-east go into Piccadilly which is a 15 minute walk to Victoria. There’s also the metro.

I live in Todmorden and think it’s brilliant. 40 mins on the train to Victoria, About an hour in the car to central Manc in rush hour, and hour and 20 mins on the bike. Some of the best road and mountain biking in the north, hills, and houses on the cheaper side than the south of Manchester. Same goes for Ramsbottom and nearby areas.

I live in west Manchester, Worsley to be specific. Its a great location for access to motorways. Wales, The Lakes, The Peaks all in quick easy reach. More local stuff gives you the like of Rivington and the Pennines, slightly further afield you have the likes of Gisburn.

You could save your time on reducing your daily commute by living closer to the city centre as opposed to the likes of Todmorden (Yorkshire) and use your time at weekends to get out and about rather than worrying about riding from your front door. Makes perfect sense to me.

As the subject of Luissa has cropped again, ive got to say….i would….all over! I’m sorry, but shes sexy as hell!

The programme itself i can take or leave, i wonder at what point they will learn that the real world of business is nothing like that?!

I went to LSE……whilst it was a superb experience, i agree that London doesn’t necessarily have that Uni vibe that some may be looking for. I always liked Exeter Uni and Manchester Uni (home town!).

Not sure whether that helps or not?!?

Like the U.S we MAY get lower prices….however the cynic in me thinks that any savings will be negated by ‘costs in research’ or ‘costs in product development’. Again like our friends over the pond i feel certain that we’ll suffer from all the conditions associated with after effects of fracking and the chemicals used. If we do get cheaper gas, the real cost of that is the pollution that it causes. Not great.

Think beyond your nose.

Real investment needs to be made into nuclear if we’re to consume the power we are currently doing. I was working on a data centre where the national grid had to rejig their set up as this one site alone draws as much power as Halifax!!!

Fracking is a very bad idea and doesn’t really fix the problem we’ve created.

……sorry.

Nothing good can come from fracking.

Yak, a correct summary if ever there was one! I’m no further on…..and even more confused….whats all this talk of people making there own?!? Have these people not got lives to get on with? Oh hang on, this is STW afterall!! 🙂

Top man! Plenty of reading material there.

Enter the ninja
American ninja series

An amazing set of films that I will never ever tire of watching.

God bless that Canon / 80 martial arts phase….loved it!

I had a rant on here a while back about Muslims being ‘outraged’ at the most ridiculous of things.

What i want to know is when do they get ‘outraged’ about things that come directly from their culture or their societies.

Where are their leaders condoning this kind of behaviour? Why are they not ‘outraged’ about this? Why aren’t they outraged about beheadings of innocent people? Why aren’t they outraged about Hamas firing rockets into Israel?

No matter where muslims are, it seems that trouble isnt far behind. Sweden had / has a big problem at the moment i believe. This country is sleepwalking into a terror problem and the majority of the population are either oblivious or dont care.

I know Christians have done things that arent exactly cricket, but that was hundreds of years ago and times have changed.

The more i hear about what goes on, the more i believe David Icke is right.

Cheers folks! Some great ideas there……. plenty to go at!

Cheers Digga and for the record definitely not a veggitablist 🙂

It’s disgusting! What on earth goes through their minds??

……and to the two tossers who needed reminding yesterday at Gisburn forest to take their litter home take heed!

Like all of these scares, nothing will happen.

I think GT may have the edge in this case, Innerleithen may have to wait for my next bi yearly visit!

Cervinia is pretty good. Lots of big wide runs, quiet night life, good restaurants, short transfer time..

Have you thought about going down an alternative route? Myadvice would be to get some advice and manage it yourself through diet. I have a friend and his son was diagnosed with ADHD. He sought the help of a nutritional therapist as he wasnt keen on the idea of giving mind bending chemicals to his son (thats for University!!), anyway after cutting out processed foods, sugar, sweets and giving his son a ‘clean’ diet….it has since disappeared and has shown no signs of returning.

Worth a search…..
