Cities....

[jamross65]

we went into a pub after the march, and I bumped into a guy whos land I shoot on sometimes, what are the chances?

we didnt miss the bus back as we had the driver with us

In typical scots style, our bus had several hampers onboard, wine, beer, slow gin, damson gin, raspberry vodka, cheese, biscuits, hams...

After an hour back up the road the driver pulled in to a service station and said it was illegal to drink on a bus!!!??? Too lat, we had finished it by then.

Poor driver only said that after he saw the rate that it was all being consumed and the only thing left was the anti freeze in the bus coolant system! lol

The cosmopolitanism of London is one of the things that makes it such a great, flawed place. Speaking as a half-foreign city-dweller, it's quite possible to be pretty apprehensive of stalkers (of the deer variety), keepers, farmers and people with funny regional accents, simply because they're alien to us and therefore scary. But really, they're not on average any better or worse than your average city-dweller, British or not...

I'm writing this on a train from London to Kent, full of people from all over the place, on my way to my un-urban DSC1 course. No reason you can't embrace both!

+1 Got back from a day out in london with the family. Had a fantastic time. The sights and food, went to 2 museums the Natural history and the science Museum. Finished off on the London eye at night and then the train home. So much to see including every shape , size, colour and creed and all getting on with life. To be honest we in the countryside have a lot to learn from Londoners about tollaration of others.

No one would ever accuse me of being politically correct, but I don't think this is the right forum to debate subjects like immigration policy. Similar threads in the past have not ended well.

The clue is in the title General Discussion.

The biggest problem is that these large sprawls of non natives have a majority vote in the flawed system. The largest local town to me you can walk through it without hearing English spoken at all. It's something that has to be addressed before we sink.

London is a melting pot of all types a wonderful place. And they are not against us they just want to get on with their own lives. All we have to do is educate them as many of the TV chefs have been over the last few years.

Of course, you are all right and wrong at the same time. It just depends which side of the fence you are on.

I used to love London/cities but as I get older I find them too much and look forward to getting back out in the sticks, well a small market town anyway.


It is hard sitting on this fence LOL

Cities

where a job at a computer screen is more important than a job mending fences, and a leg of meat is more valuable than a good knife.........

......where people wear tight shoes so their feet don't look big and spend money they haven't got on things they dont need......

Only good thing about cities is that most of the people seem to want to be there

suits me

If there is such a thing as reincarnation, I pray that some don't come back as trout, they rise to a cast far to easily.

Oh but they do come back! Mostly during duffers fortnight.

What we want is a prime minister like the Australians have, !!

Welsh, you mean? Aye to that!
