Woody / lloyds - loving your considered, articulate contributions, Keep 'em coming. Off to bed for me now. CU tomorrow.

Hagina - good point, I like that. Would also like to add that this evening has seen a nice exchange of divergent opinions without the personal abuse that seems to have plagued this board for a while, Lets keep it going.

The point is (for me at least) that ordinary, decent people end up having their lives damaged/destroyed/taken away, by egomaniacal narcissists who only care for themselves and their own agenda.. They are mostly insecure, cowardly, and short (see previous posts). What is it about about people that crave power that makes them unsuitable to hold power? Why do we continue to let them get away with it?

Ouch!

Robbren - love the reference, and that's a great song. Unfortunately. I think that by you referencing a song from 1979 (?), and me referencing a 1980's topless model, we have both inadvertently given our age away.

That photo of him topless on the horse - more Samantha Fox than Vlad the Impaler.

Let's sort this all out man-to-man. "Hard man" Putin v. the mayor of Kiev - aka Vitali Klitschko. Love to see the self-proclaimed tough guy wetting himself as he gets battered. Pathetic bully.

Blue - "get married somewhere else", I genuinely did laugh out loud at that.
Of course, a more cynical person than myself might recommend not marrying at all. Who was it who said "How do you you make a small fortune? - Make a large fortune ,then get married".

Woody - don't get me wrong, I would love to see this over NOW, but I just can't see it happening -Putin's too far gone.
If a rabid dog attacks you, you can't negotiate with it - just take it outside and shoot it in the head.
Blue - glad to see you already have the info about where to send the donation. Very kind of you.

I'll have some of that! Ceasefire by Monday - there's more chance of me..... oh, hang on, I've already made that joke.
You're on Blue - charity of choice I assume.

Jesus Christ - will I ever wake up one day to some good news about this share. Covid/ war in Ukraine / now all short-haul Heathrow flights cancelled. That's without even mentioning strikes/ Brexit / inflation / 5G issues / fuel price rises/ climate change - do I need to keep going?

Grass in my vodka. Seriously?

"won't go wront". Looks like you've had enough already. and it's only 4 O'clock!
Ps -" serve it with apple juice". That'll be a vodka/cider shandy then. Sounds interesting.

Potty - shouldn't you be on the Lambrini by now?
PS - Is it still acceptable for me to drink Smirnoff?

The mostly decent people that comprise the general population of a country (pick anywhere you like) being let down by incompetent/greedy/corrupt governments and leaders. Same as it ever was.

No dry powder for me - just a gooey, slushy mess that used to be my portfolio.
As for vodka - does this mean I won't be able to get Smirnoff? Ok Putin - you've overstepped the mark now.

I hear you - personally I am trying to put it off till at least 4.00pm

Blue - air-conditioned lodge in Africa, free diving equipment, high living, hotels ,restaurants, worldwide travel, expense account...etc etc, That's one hell of a job description - where do I apply?

So after 2 years, today is technically "freedom day" - in England at least. And just a few hours into it, Russia invades a sovereign European nation. If you put this in a novel, you'd be laughed out of the room.

I think Putin may have a different take on the benefits of nuclear.
