[Potstubsdustbins]

Terrorists who go round killing people whilst ranting muslim propaganda live on TV.

Whilst ranting terrorist propaganda. Surely we all know that the Muslim faith has nothing to do with this? Do we still automatically associate dissident republicans with catholicism?

[Potstubsdustbins]

Have you seen/listened to the actual footage shown on ITV, if not then I suggest you do.

Its was muslim in its entire content.

Yes, I have, and no it wasn't. A quote from a friend's FB, shared with permission: " I am a Muslim and proud to be one. Anyone who takes the life of an innocent human being is NOT a Muslim. Islam does not teach violence or hatred! It is a religion of peace and tolerance. Always has been and always will be. Please do not use Islam to justify your vile acts!!"

Describing mad-men as representatives of a faith which disowns them plays right into their hands, and the hands of the EDL, and only serves to perpetuate the violence.

Just back home and I could chisel the icicles off of me. It is ver near June and it is baltic out there! More coffee needed!

My sister is losing her hair again - the 5th time in 11 years...

She still has another 10 months of this treatment to go (and they won't even be able to tell if it's working for another 2 or 3 months)...

It kills me inside to not be able to stop the awful side effects, and to see her so despondent when her hair starts to go again...

Those bleeping eejits who insist on driving on my bumper. Is there a great big magnet on the front of Bimmers & Audis?

The eejits whizz along 10-20 miles over the limit, then cut back in the lane when it goes single file, and actually make the whole traffic go SLOWER. If you stuck to the limit we would all go along at a nice steady pace, and actually get there QUICKER, you morons.

No, it was extremist in its entire content. Those men no more represented the greater Islamic faith than Anders Breivik represented christianity.

The race, religion or nationality is not the point here, it is the bigotry and extremism of all types which turns people to this type of behaviour that we should direct our attention towards. Treat the disease of ignorance and fear not the symptoms.

Just overheard in the doctor's this afternoon;

'Eh, what about them two blokes in the news, what killed that other chap?'

'They'm just daft terrorists; derserve all they get. What 'bout poor ol' George Michael though? You got to feel sorry for 'im, don't you?'

I despair

[VirginVegGrower]

Don't preach to me. I know the truth. Live within it to know the truth. Yes, I have.

Also, schools that screw up your son's chances in life, all because of a clerical error. We are sorry - cold comfort thanks.

Window salesmen .......
Yes we need new windows but we have a quote that we are happy with so.........Mr Safestyle Uk ...unless you can quote ridiculously cheap I'm not interested. No I'm not going to tell you how much we've been quoted and when I say can you quote less than 5 grand for 9 sash windows that doesn't necessarily mean that's what I'm paying..and no I won't tell you who we're buying off ....It's none of your chuffin business no matter how ever you try to find out.... and if you had a nicer telephone manner in the first place then we might have even allowed you to give us a quote........

I love love love my job, can't fault it and will miss it terribly when the contract ends but by heck it can be exhausting sometimes.

Looking forward to the bank holiday and some time to recover doing planning and paperwork during half term; I can see why teachers need their hols after working alongside them for 3 years.

*collapses in a heap.

And after a day's building a clay oven in this weather...my comments can only be described as 'chuff off wind'. Otherwise I'd have to ban myself.
