The fat should be drided and given no peace, in the greater scheme fat children or adults should be used for the greater good.
Please explain
Unless either we want to live in the dark ages the planet can not survive us."Either" implies there is also an "or", so it's live in the dark ages ... or what? I don't understand what you're saying here.

David, Norway can be a high cost place for Brits now,,,, but,, if you stay away from the hotels
If you shop around, you can find accommodation - in hotels - for less than staying in similar places in the UK. We did so last year in Bergen, Oslo and Trondheim. In fact, hotel accommodation was the least pricey aspect of the hotel. And all of them were very clean and comfortable,

Lancastria's loss in 1941 was the biggest single loss of lives in maritime history
The Lancastria was actually lost in 1940 off St Nazaire, during the fall of France. It is certainly by far the greatest disaster in British maritime history with a loss of approximately 4000. However, in January 1945, the Wilhelm Gustloff, carrying German refugees, was sunk by a Russian submarine in the Baltic with a loss of well over 5000 - although because of a surge of refugees onto the ship in Danzig, the number could have been far greater.
In the last days of the European war, the Goya, also carrying German refugees was also sunk by a Russian sub off of Danzig. No accurate passenger lists had been compiled and the losses may have been about 6000.

BTW I am a bit confused. I was under the impression that soljey = muckleviking. If so, why the multiple identities for this thread?
Sorry about that. I sign as Muckleviking in another forum (not Shetlink) I belong to elsewhere. I inadvertantly type in muckleviking. I hadn't noticed I'd done that. No intention to confuse.
Note to moderator can you remove muckleviking?

You better change your username to tperson!
Isn't the use of "son" in "person" gender specific?
-
Now if they can just make all the nouns in French, Spanish etc gender-neutral..... Save heartbreak for generations of schoolkids. Is it le or la/el or la....

I thought the JFK assination was proved to be by members of Red Dwarf.
I thought in that episode it was JFK himself that shot JFK - after persuasion by the Red Dwarf team that it would be better to go out in a blaze of glory.

very interesting article in the paper. So he is the king of nowt. he claims independence on land he does not own. was this not then an invasion of the sovereign territory by a invading force. i wonder what the folks who have paid him will think.
Invasion of sovereign territory, PM in trouble in Downing Street. I can see a naval taskforce being assembled to sail north to liberate British sovereign territory.

Then who would clean up all the chewing gum around the stocks?

She may indeed have fought Bressay's corner - but if it came to a vote and she was outnumbered then so be it....
I think we forget up here though that our fares are pretty heavily subsidised compared to many other parts of the country.

Spending 490 billion on a new school
Guess that'll be one school for the whole of the UK then.
Most bizarre thing you have ever eaten.

It's not necessarily what I've eaten but was in Riga in Latvia once. There they have a gigantic market in 3 old Zeppelin sheds. In them they sell fish fresh from tanks which they put into your bag still writhing. They display and sell every part - and I mean EVERY part - of sheep, cattle and pigs.
In Tunisia, in a town on the edge of the Sahara, walking along the back streets we saw horse's heads for sale in the butchers shops. NO idea what they were for.
