The tragic events in Wales leading up to the deaths of two teenagers and the ensuing trouble leads me to this conclusion.

It is alleged....
According to one victims relative the two teenagers were being "chased" by the police and this obviously caused the accident.

I.M.H.O.
There is no one else to blame for the accident but the victims themselves and the people that started the chain of events leading up to the fatal crash.
One was 15 the other 16 basically kids, giving one an electric bike for their birthday was like giving a monkey a machine gun, anyone with any degree of intelligence could figure out what was going to happen, even then it wasn't a case of if, it was when, they were an accident waiting to happen. Two of them on a bike riding up and down an estate it wouldn't take long for them to come to the attention of the police. As for the "chase" according to C.C.T.V. there was only one time the police were anywhere near the lads on the bike the rest of the time they were hundreds of yards behind, and prior to the crash had turned off the road away from the bike, so for at least two minutes leading up to the crash they were nowhere near the pair and possibly nowhere in sight.

No one likes to see loss of life especially when it's a needless death, but their families seem determined to blame anyone but the victims and/or themselves, couple that with mindless individuals that litter almost every {council} estate that just look for any excuse to start trouble and you have a recipe for anarchy. This could have happened on any estate anywhere in the country and I could almost guarantee the outcome would have been the same.

At the end of the day I have absolutely no sympathy, obviously tragic.....BUT WAS AVOIDABLE!

A family were at the airport in the queue ready to board for sunnier climes.
The husband turned to the wife and said "I wish I'd brought the piano with me!" the wife said "Why would you want that?"

He said "Because the passports are on top of it"

Anybody been watching the media covering this story.

As soon as I became aware of this story, a couple of weeks ago, that Maddie may have been found, after only a couple of minutes search I found this not to be true so why it's taken THIS long I've no idea.

O.K. so the D.N.A. proves that the girl claiming to be Maddie is obviously not, the first thing I noticed was yes they both have a spot in their right eyes but on closer inspection you can see these spots are NOT alligned and over your lifetime your eyes never naturally change.

So D.N.A. plus the fact the girl is two years older than Maddie.
All this adds up to someone tutoring this girl in hopes of making a name for themselves {not to mention money} on the flimsiest of evidence, and I don't think you have to look very far to find the answer to that question.

I know.....I'd never heard the word before either.

Apparently it's a word dreamt up to describe all those niggly sounds that get on your nerves like, nails down a chalkboard, snoring, loud yawning, tapping, pen clicking and literally hundreds of other things that annoy you as individuals.

So a few that get on my wick {and I believe totally unnecessary} are:-
Loud chewing when eating or chewing gum {my mother used to call this "smacking your chops"} as do I.
Excessive slurping when drinking anything such as tea coffee etc.
People constantly tapping their fingers or an item {my brother does this all the time when out, usually tapping a beer mat on the table}
Anyone whistling whether tuneful or not.

 There's lots more that get on my nerves but I think you'll find the majority of noises that annoy me may be universal.


 

Latest idea from the government, that's been ten years in the making, your mobile phone will bleep a warning and tell you your about to die.

Seriously though, the mobile phone service available in the U.K. a good % of the country has rubbish mobile phone network signals that don't reach certain parts {as yet} so once again putting the cart before the horse.
Yet another sidetracking idea detracting you from looking what's really going on.

Just heard Mystic Meg has died

I wonder if she saw it coming?

If what I saw on the news this morning is accurate someone needs their bumps feeling.

The way I see it is, the people that use and /or live near Leeds Bradford airport are up in arms because it's basically too busy and it's over subscribed and causing problems. Robin Hood {about 50 miles down the road} is closing because it's not "viable". Admittedly R.H only has one runway but putting in a second shouldn't be too much of a struggle. I'm sure the vast majority of travellers using L.B. at the moment live nearer R.H.

Why can't L.B. take over R.H.

The title alone beggars belief........

Reports say up to 30 ex pilots have took up the offer of wads of cash to train the Chinese army and the British government have warned them of the consequences, point is if they've already signed on the dotted line this "threat" is hardly going to change their minds and apparently there is virtually nothing to stop them. O.k. so maybe a few of them may have an axe to grind about how the force treated them during the years they served, but that's no excuse. People have been jailed for fighting for Isis, or better still why don't we just start helping the Russian army, I see no difference.

If I were in charge I would inform any pilot going to China that once they decide to go, take your family with you and leave your passport at the air terminal before boarding because you won't be coming back.
