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.

I hope so, but Putin has no interest in peace.

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.

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 !!!!

Couldn't agree more

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.

Those orange and green stripes are best forgotten tbh

"James, James" "Yes Mr Farnon" "Look, look, it's a bad case of Lycra, get me my gun" "At once Mr Farnon" "Hurry man, it's getting away, we can't let it spread"

Unwrapped thread, easier read I think https://skywriter.blue/pages/did:plc:d3z4gcd2zjj7uo43lv7icqsk/post/3lqlfd5shj22g

He works in sport/football data

Good luck mate, if they ask you to go and get a long stand or a sky hook, they're taking the piss 😉

He also shares my Mbeumo reservations 😀

Excellent thread on potential targets. https://bsky.app/profile/editkev.football/post/3lqlfd5shj22g

Many years ago on Skunkers a poster (Nobby's Uncle) posted, "there's a young lad making his debut for Yorkshire 2nd XI today, he's my nephew, he'll play for England one day, he's special, he's called Joe Root". Wish I'd thrown a tenner on him to do just that and more. Utterly breathtaking today, similar to that first day against the convicts when he was going like a train and Stokes fucking declared 🙄.

Shit HMHM, hope all settles down/works out. You've no luck mate, Fucking typical you get this "can't drive to work" gold card when work's only 10 mins walk away.

I know some of us are old cunts but posting using the font usually reserved for books in the "special" section of the library patronising in the extreme and not a little insulting tbh.

Not sure I see anything horrendous in that, based on your intro I was reading it waiting for something akin to "we reserve the right to collect the blood of your firstborn (white only) for use in our immortality experiments" but it never happened.

Always my favourite forrin player in his Barcelona days, never got the recognition of Xavi/Iniesta but I'm not sure they'd have been as great in that side without him.

Spooky

ARCTIC MITCH SUMMER, and just like the sea ice Mitch is fucking off.

Doubly wrong you say, surely not !!

Yes
