Silver FOX with a name like FOX, do you have to keep an ear out for the Hounds when out for a stroll in the Country?…….:D

Why do you think I’m opposed to fox hunting?….:D

That is what he would like you to think, and the spin his friends in the press are giving it. I am not convinced. As has been said before, when it is a toss up between c0ck up and conspiracy, it is usually a c0ck up.

I feel Cameron was pandering to the “country” set hoping to sneak amendments through the back door, we know the Countryside Alliance are vociferous on this subject, but I would like to see the actual support for this medieval practice among the rural community.

Certainly many are definitely anti-hunting and the hunts themselves are finding that many landowners are barring them from land previously hunted over.

Panic over, Cameron’s chickened out when he realised the whole plan was going down like a lead balloon, however I believe the dastardly plan is to reintroduce the “amendment” when the Scottish MPs have been stopped from voting on “English” laws.

I grew up in the country, am very much a country lad, but this was an arable farming area, the horse riding fraternity were not always welcomed or even tolerated, particularly when they seem to think a grain field in spring was a nice bit of new grass to gallop on or feed for their horses, someone came up with the bright idea of fox hunting, it didn’t go well.

May not feel like it right now, but be eternally grateful that if said GF is so easily lead, distracted or whatever the reason, that she has gone fairly early in the relationship, not like a family friend who on a day off, took their 3 children out for the day returning to find wife gone having packed her things, only pausing to transfer the contents of the bank account on her way.

The truly surprisingly stupid part of all this is that training funding and places have been cut under this government and in it’s previous guise, to the point where 37,000 applicants were refused the chance of training due to lack of funding and capacity, evidently we are now training more nurses, but the numbers will barely keep up with replacing those who retire or leave, certainly will not fill the shortages we have all ready.

For me the absence of advertisements interrupting programmes would justify a licence fee double what is currently charged.

Agree with that totally and the concept of paying extra to watch even more pointless ads mystifies me.

I know Evans has a following of sorts, but personally I have never found him to be even mildly amusing or interesting in the slightest, the sight of him on any show is enough for me to change channels or switch off, one thing sure he has a face made for radio.

when china starts to implode all those rich chinese will be coming to the US or Europe. China is living on borrowed time.

The problem is, much of the West is living on Chinese borrowed money.
