Political Discussions And Ranting Thread
MrSpud42 replied to Deathray's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
Being from a farming family, I probably will not go fully vegetarian/vegan as living from the land is how, in my families case, we have lived for generations. I still forage for various foodstuffs. It's cheaper than buying. Although I quite enjoy fully plant based foods. Some of it is very nice. -
I predict the grim reaper is going to confound sceptics and be its most powerful yet like a super strong enema in 2024 moreso than recent years equalling or even beating 2020
MrSpud42 replied to Gooseberry Crumble's topic in DeathList Forum
Not long left in this year,but plenty of time for people on the list to pop their clogs, shuffle off this mortal coil, join the choir invisible, go the way of the Norwegian Blue and have a record year. -
Michael Wynn Jones. Delia Smith's other half. Co-owner of Norwich City. Aldo been an author, editor and publisher in his own right. No mentions of any illness though he's now in his late 70's / early 80's and smokes like a chimney. Just as an outside bet.

Nothing wrong with that. Though tbf one of my favourite songs with a Christmas theme rarely if ever gets airplay at anytime of the year. Though as its St Etienne who don't get much anyway with any of their music.

The Worst Job You Ever Ever Had
MrSpud42 replied to Lord Fellatio Nelson's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
For me, the worst job I've had so far is as an industrial cleaner at a large local window/conservatory manufacturer. They were based out of old aircraft hangers. A mare to clean and the line workers treated the place and us like crap. And after someone decided to crap into a bowl and stick it into a microwave at high power I had the sense to hand my notice in. -
How did you learn your first swear words?
MrSpud42 replied to Hartnell 1999's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
Hmm - being a football fan most would think I learnt most of my bad language / swear words there. Not in my case... I was taken to the football by my mum to escape my father's invariable use of all the above words in a variety of combinations when various agricultural machines broke or his method of repair, normally a hammer failed to repair it. The joys of growing up on a remote farm in Norfolk. -
A bit niche this - retired SR71 pilot and author Brian Shul has died, announced on social media.
-
Possibly the wrong thread - Simon Arron, motorsports writer/photographer has died.

October 27th.

There's a short article about Fort William in the new When Saturday Comes. Worth a look if you can find it in your local newsagents.

20 years this year. Damn. -

Just seen this announced - meatloaf has died https://deadline.com/2022/01/meat-loaf-dead-bat-out-of-hell-rocky-horror-picture-show-1234917056/

Yep, that's the North Norfolk coast road. Though to be fair there's a couple of places that's suitable - Stiffkey and Cley. I was in a school trip in a borrowed minibus and we scraped up the side due to an idiot going too fast. Tractors I don't mind. People tend to quickly realise they will lose any argument when they meet something large and agricultural in their path.

So .. What Do You Watch On TV?
MrSpud42 replied to Banshees Scream's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
As I've recently subscribed to a streaming service, various shows involving James May. And Morgan Spurlocks inside man. -
Sorry. Tired. Been drinking a wee bit. Put in the wrong thread.

I'm in my early/mid 40's brought up listening to 50's rock n' roll and motown. When Jerry Lee Lewis goes it will definitely be the end of an era. He's outlived most from that period.
-
It's always the hellraisers. And especially when it's Jerry Lee. The old grim reaper is probably warming up his scythe though.

I'm going for 13.

Nope, still with us according to Wikipedia - the Author that is. The cricketer with the same name died in 2004. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edmund_White
