  1. Past hour
  2. Once went into a Chinese on Low Fell after a Friday night skinful. Asked for curry and chips and, to this day, I have no idea what they gave me but it wasn’t curry. It had the colour and consistency of a baby’s sick and had a taste equivalent to a baby’s shite. It was that bad and toxic, I had to have about 4/5 mouthfuls just to try and figure out what I had received. The place shut about 3 weeks later and it had to be on the health inspectors command
  3. Today
  4. We’ll have to agree to disagree. Anyway, I’ve just about hit my yearly quota of contributions to this thread. I’m off to watch an instructional video on pipe fitting basics before getting my head down. “ Latina Ho Separates Her Flanges”.
  5. He's like Hitler in 44/45 I think what you say is perfectly rational but Putin's not rational, he won't hand back Crimea because to him it's Russia and it also uses that bridge which was very much his pet project. Nigh on 750k dead Russians already, the bodies going home (or not) aren't making a difference and I suspect won't, it's a great patriotic war 🙄 He doesn't just want Ukraine he wants the Baltic states back, he won't stop until he's stopped IMO.
  6. Not specific meals like, but one night whilst working on cruise ships me and my mate sneaked into the kitchens to see if there was any bait for grabs. Loads of covered massive trays for the next day’s breakfast on the benches. Pealed back the tin foil off the top of one to see the complete thing covered every millimetre with cockroaches. Didn’t even know the bastards could fly till that moment.
  7. His primary interest is power, and retaining it. If peace is how he does that, he’ll sit down and talk. He’s going to run out of resources at some point, and also bodies to use the resources. Even the basic equipment of warfare- trucks, artillery etc, need some kind of training to use. That requires an extensive stock just for training purposes. More specialist equipment, like tanks, takes longer to train for, and longer to replace what’s lost in battle. What he’s got is out of date and poorly maintained. He’ll run out of the gear before he runs out of bodies, but when the number of bodies coming back (or not) gets too big, the plebs will start to question the propaganda, too. To me, peace is his only real option. What that peace turns out to be is another question- he could probably fully withdraw and cede all the territory he’s taken, and still spin it as a win back home. It depends on how hard Ukraine push in any negotiations. I can see them demanding Crimea be returned as a base of negotiations, then the Donbas region in the east being haggled over. But what do I know, I’m just a trucker who likes filthy mares
  8. I hope so, but Putin has no interest in peace.
  9. Aye Wykiki I dont come on Gen Chat much. but hope the cunts at yer new place of work are ok and the new job works out well!.
  10. I’m not sure Trump has the stones to actually throw Ukraine to the dogs anymore- his recent rhetoric against Putin suggests so too* *( As much as you can believe a single thing that falls out of TACO’s face anus). And, if he did, I honestly think Europe would step up and commit to Ukraine more forcefully.
  11. I’ve seen a subtitled version of the first video, the owld Russian lad is swearing like a trooper! “ Oh fuck me, another one!” ” The fucking police are fucking shooting at it… fuck me, they’ve fucking missed!”
  12. Agree with a lot of that, but not the last paragraph, the peace talks are a game/front IMO, he'll make some unreasonable demands and when rejected just say "Ukraine doesn't want peace" and on it'll go, sadly the orange shitgibbon will likely buy the story.
  13. Still looks more mobile than Callum currently does.
  14. I was reading the other day about Russia’s declared nuclear capabilities, and how they’re very likely bullshit. Essentially, they probably do have some small, functioning nuclear missiles (ICBM’s?) which they can launch off the back of a truck. Their long-range, silo based arsenal, which carries the proper big boys, hydrogen fusion warheads, are very likely practically useless, due to poor( or non existent) maintenance, and a lack of a source of Tritium, which is needed to trigger the first stage of these weapons. Without the first stage triggering, the devastating second fusion stage won’t happen. Given how piss poor the Russian military has been seen to be during this war ( let’s not forget they needed a private army to advance in the earlier part of it, until the bloke had an unfortunate plane crash), it’s fairly credible to me that their nuclear capabilities are way less daunting than they claim. Granted, you only need one nuclear missile to land to ruin someone’s day, but I think the strengthening of European military capabilities is more subtly aimed at Trump than Putin- basically saying “If you won’t help, we’re more than capable of seeing off Vlad ourselves. I also think Putin sees this, which is why he’s now willing to enter peace negotiations- he’s put himself in a position where he knows he can’t sustain the war, or even a victory should it come to that, and is now looking to save face and present himself to his people as Vlad the Peacemaker before the woeful state of his military is truly exposed to them.
  15. As long as he’s happy to play second fiddle to Isak then he gives us another option off the bench.
  16. They were still there waiting decommissioning when I worked there in 2013 😆 Vanguard class are due for the chop soon, some Dreadnought class already in service I think..
  17. Long story, short version, had a visit on HMS Amazon in Devonport (1976) courtesy of the RN, on way out we passed a dry dock with one of the hunter killer nukes in it, fuck me, to see one out of the water, they are fucking huge and probably the missile boats are even bigger these days !!!!
  18. Not anymore he won’t. Zelensky gave Putin a proper spanking with their outstanding coordinated drone strike on Russia’s bomber fleet. Reading that many of the planes he destroyed can’t be replaced as they’re no longer in production, even parts for repair are rarer than a washed mackem. This is Zelensky today, shaking hands with Russia’s Head of Security Service and giving him a “fuck you” grin
  19. Good job we’ve got four then (no idea of their status tbh, they could all be in getting fixed at Devonport 😬)
  20. Well yes, 3 isn't enough, one at sea on patrol, one in port, one under maintenance, doesn't give you a lot of slack.
