Bus/Train phone your mp

Hey, so we keep getting told to use public transport well i would love to but......when you go on a bus loaded down with shopping where do you put your bags.There is a little spce at the front of the bus ,well that is unless young kids are using it for a seat,so you take them up to your seat and put them there...then you'll get an some idiot asking you to move them so they can get a seat when the bus is busy.Oh but thats only half the fun when you get of the bus you gotta haul them home so you do your back in hauling shopping ,go to the doctor and end up on pills for the rest of your life.I love the way the supermarkets are open 24 hours good stuff but can you get a bus there and getting a taxi just doesn't make it worth while.
Another point i don'tknow about most of you but i try to be sporting and do go fishing,i used to use buses but can't really do that now i find it very difficult to get a fishing rod,rod rest ,haversack and a bucket of bait on the bus the buses are getting lower.Older buses use to have a rack above seats a great idea but no longer.I love the way folk look at you when you got a bucket of worms lol what you meant to do you can't keep the lid on they will die then you get calkled a murderer can't win.When i go fishing ,i do sea fishing so i fish with the tides and often i used to find myself stuck in towns or cities overnight DUE TO LACK OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT AFTER 11 OCLOCK AT NIGHT.
I have found an answer to both these problems PHONE YOUR MP AND ASK HIM/HER TO COME AND DRIVE YOU HOME. These are the people that insist you use public transport, just think standing at a bustop with a load of shopping and thinking of the problems you'll have getting on a bus...PHONE YOUR MP.You may be stuck in a town after a fishing trip about 1 in the morning PHONE YOUR MP they will be so glad to hear from a voter ask them to give you a lift due to lack of transport it may get them to think about night transport.If you have fish smelling in your bag or a smelly bait bucket still phone them .If your lying drunk in the middle of the high street at three in the morning and need a lift home PHONE YOUR MP i'm sure they will come out and get you.
Some of you may ask if i am driving nowadays and i must say yes i do. I hear the voices what about my carbon footprint well i look at it this way,for over forty years i have used public transport and put up with all kinds of crap so /save the planet/save the whales/save the worms/save the trees/save the fish/save the snake/save the planet numpties get on to me i think this entitles me to around 30 years of driving so leave me in peace.

Not IN Your Car

Such is life really pissin, me off now....ok so you can't use mobile phones in your car good idea who polices this one cause i don't see too many people getting caught load of croc.
Ah now they want to ban smoking in your car ...well really who is going to check out the drivers on this one,will they claim you are putting out to much bad emissions if you smoke. When you consider all the drivers that run around with no road tax/insurance and they can't catch them .
Then there are the foriegners that come across to this country buy a car and start driving,and don't apply for a uk driving licence and seem to get away with it, after some of the close encounters i have had i don't believe they even have a licence to drive in the country they came from .
What next i wonder...ahhh you won't be able to go of and and park up have sex in your car with your wife or whatever next.Before anyone says anything i think they banned sex with your favourite sheep a few years back lol.
Then it will come round that you can't talk in your car in case you get distracted.
I tell you what is distracting is the multitude of friggin road signs that are appearing and all the information on each of them theres to much ,i sometimes feel like pulling to the side of the road just to read them all.So you manage to read the signs then lo and behold there are signs on the road which don't allways go with what is on the sings themselves i find this especially at roundabouts.
Well we all seem to be getting used to speed cameras now all the talk is of toll roads, Forgive me but isn't that in effect what speed cameras are basically doing.
Then you have speed humps or sleeping policemen as they are also known wrecking your well cared for car, I wonder why they need them with the condition of the roads i don't know much about the cites that you may live in but... here in Dundee some of the roads are worse that farm tracks ,and they wonder why people need 4 x 4's .
Is it any wonder people really starting to get fed up to the back teeth of rules for driving

Rising sea levels

Well for quite a while now people are talking about rising sea levels due to global warming,do i agree with that well not quite.
You see i think rising sea levels are partly caused by us ,when you go to the beach what is one of the many things you do ? Throw stones into the water well just think over thousands of years that's a lot of stones.Another thing is the sea itself crashing onto the sea and rocks slowly but surely eroding away at the rocks and cliffs,also eating into the land there is so much of it disappearing into the sea and at a fair rate of knots.Then there is us humans again reclaiming land from the sea where does all that water go it's not as if it can spread itself around it goes into the sea raising it. Then there are the scientists claiming that global warming is melting the ice at the poles,well i don't go with this i think it is all that water rising going into all the cracks in the ice causing pieces to fall of .
Well thats my view on rising sea levels oohhh not forgetting all the ships that have been sunk over the years and the fishing equipment from trawlers and the anglers that adds up to .

Hey Tony A new Way To Tax Us

Having a talk about driving with my wife who comes from the states i discovered something that may just make it's way over here.This concerns the driving licence from what my wife says i gather that in the USA they have to buy a new driving licence every so often,in some states every ten years in others every five years. Do you think Tony has heard of this and maybe thinking now there's a neat way to raise more cash from us hard working poor paid and well taxed people.

Prisoners In Iran

Well i see we have had 15 sailors arrested in Iran for being in the wrong section of the sea apparently.So like we normally do we try to solve the problem diplomatically.I was thinking just imagine if it was american sailors that were taken.Bush would have loved that the fire power America has down there ,there would have been no second thoughts.I don't think they would have sat back and waited they would have charged right in there ....i hate to say.

Green Taxes My A@@

Well its getting serious so the government keep telling us the world is dying .Now what do you think the response to that is ....you got it TAX US STUPID...Long time ago they said we would be bettrer with unleaded fuel so they kept the price down until everyone was using it then,THEY HIKED IT UP WITH TAX so now it it not much cheaper than normal fuel.They tell you use smaller cars with smaller engines you will pay less tax on it,well slowly but shurely the ROAD TAX IS ON ITS WAY UP.
To save the enviroment they want toll roads god is that gonna be another easy TAX RAISING FUND just like speed camera tax.The tories want to TAX US FOR FLYING to save the enviroment what a load of bulls@@@ . The govmt want to put a TAX ON FLYING TOO..i think the political parties are in cahoots because this is the easiest way to raise money they have ever come across.
Companies too have not been left out they want them to pay for emmissions .
Well i am sick of the whole friggin lot ,the planet is heating up don't they think that it could be natural another cycle in the planets life like the ice ages.Well i tend to be thinking this way.I would love to know how paying all these excess taxes is going to help the enviroment,can we buy fresh air somewhere.
You turn on tv/radio/comp etc all you here is green this and that well i'm afraid i am getting sick to the back teeth of it ,do i care anymore what happens bollocks nope.When leading scientists can't decide what the reason for global warming is thats when i think all the worlds govmts are looking for an easy way to raise cash.
SO ME I HAVE GIVEN UP CARING ANYMORE WE PAY ENOUGH TAXES AND GET NOTHING IN RETURN SO THE GOVMNT WHOEVER IS IN POWER BEWARE I FORSEE A HUGE BACKLASH AND NO ONE IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
The anti green party will be the next political force and it will come ....beware

Cars Don't Ya Just Love Em

I have come to the belief that cars have a mind and a memory.Well i bought myself a volvo 740 it seemed like a good car when i bought it ,which it was. Then it seemed to take on a life of its own this was needing done so you fix it then something else goes wrong only slightly worse than before so you fix that.So it goes on and on until eventually it gives up the ghost like mine did it decided to give up on the Tay road bridge s@@@ .Had to be towed of that then my brother towed car home and we decided it's a no hoper so, once again it got towed this time to car heaven the scrapyard.
I have now bought a rover and just waiting for it all to start again.
The moral of this story....only buy a car if you've got bottomless pockets ...which i don't.

Remember The Bird This Christmas

So christmas is heading towards us rapidly now.I would like to take a moment of your time to consider after christmas and the poor turkey left in the freezer in the local superstore.You know what i mean the last bird,the one thats been sniffed by numerous noses,the one thats been poked by hundreds of fingers,the one the kids took out the freezer and played fooball instore with,the one left overnight on the floor defrosted then stuck back in the freezer to refreeze.Please when you come across this turkey please buy it if for no other reason than to give it a decent funeral it's the only decent thing to do.Best thing about it it may have up to 75% off.

Political Correctness and Do Gooders Yeh Right

Ahhh right here we go if this doesn't annoy anyone i will try harder next time.Well i come through life telling it like it is 70' and 80's you said what you want nobody cared.If you were in a race at school and got beat it wasn't awww you'll do better next time,it was a case of you useless b@@@@@@@ it didn't affect me,and now i hear they don't want races at school in case someone looses and takes it bad,sorry but am i missing something here isn't that what it's all about character building.I can see it now the school race of the furure .....go but remember children you must all cross the finishing line together.Extreme sports ooops sorry rugby ,football,rounders,basketball don't count as extreme sports but if you are at school you would think so ...you here the cry now OH we may get sued if they hurt themselves so the kids get hurt.I got hurt often enough playing football on icebound pitches when i was at school,i just accepted the fact that i would get hurt thats life.
This crap about religion too sorry you can't wear a cross ,i don't see why not they will soon have a law banning all religious items damn i'll have to put my white hooded cloak away if that happens and put the cross back in the cupboard. lol.
You can't call a nigerian a niger,a pakistani a paki,so why in the name of god do people get away with calling a man from scotland a scot when he should be called a scotsman ,give me an answer would love to hear it.

10 min recording=half hour prog

I thought that seeing a tv program repeated a few times during the year was bad,have you ever watched the bbc morning programs talk about repeat.
For example have you ever watched 'MY LIFE FOR SALE' good god they must only do about 10 mins of filming and repeat it over and over again.This is a program where the people want to raise money for something special,with a littl help they sell thing at online aution sites.The number of times they show you say a room full of junk that's for sale is ubelievable.Then the items the people will buy with the money they raise repeated i don't know how many times.
Bargain hunt is another one along with homes under the hammer.Car booty is another that springs to mind.
These must rank as the cheapest ever made progs for tv,so if you ever wonder how to make a tv program with 10 or 15 minutes of recording last a half hour or more watch and learn.
