FLY2 10,108 Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 Just wasted three valuable hours of my life watching the most disgusting banal rubbish ever shown in the civilised world. Eurovision Song Contest. Pass me the gun ! 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PeverilPeril 3,283 Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 Ian - sorry to hear about the Lee and nearby Loughs Pollution has caused many Irish Loughs and rivers to go into decline. No longer the pristine island that it once was. Same can be said for England though, even the Lake district has suffered. There are not many weeks go by before another pollution incident is reported. Our local brook, a pure water tributary of the Trent was virtually wiped out by farm spillage three years ago. makes me seethe. On a more pleasant note - our 8 wk old kittens are having the time of their lives. So entertaining 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Compo 10,328 Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 I hope so too, Denshaw! However knowing the Europeans, they will force us to stay in the song contest after brexit just so they can give us "Nil Points" 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jill Sparrow 10,307 Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 Saw several old Rovers this afternoon, of the type my father owned when I was a child. They looked to be coming from the direction of Crich Tramway museum. Perhaps Pianoman was driving one of them? Must have been an event on up there. Lovely vehicles. Brought back a lot of memories. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
