Well, perhaps on the Irish question, and strictly scientific stuff, and.. in fac, just about anything other than politics, trades unions, etc.
Scientific stuff? It would rather depend what. Radiation engineering for instance... Mechanics and the science of fuelling a vehicle. Enough said. Choices in women, hmm that's a tough one but on balance I think I come out well ahead. Ireland, well we just come from different sides of a fence. Or perhaps I took a side and he sits on a fence. Politics, he is just barmy. OTOH many things I like to read his thoughts on and he seemed a jolly nice fellow when I met him. I hope a smiley isn't necessary....
Possibly. Radiation physics on the other hand ... That's not science, it's engineering. Oh, hang on ... No. We're on completely different farms: I think modern Irish history started in 1913 and you think it started in 1916, 1922 or 1969. See above.
Bwwaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh. What a deluded twat you are. Money and breeding are what separate Them from Us. If you have money you can get to be Middle class and if you have Breeding then you is Upper Class. For all other states of existence you are working class scum even if you do think your credit limit entitles you to be called middle class.
Well, rightly so if it was the Royal Crescent lawn because that is not public property; it belongs to the Royal Crescent. And "Republican Picnic". Tossers.
Not sure he's really ever talked about them. Displayed his ignorance in practical, fuel-related ways, yes.
That wasn't ignorance of motorcycles, it was ignorance of Belgian fuel pumps. Anyway, with the exception of TOG, I suspect I'm the only one here (waves vaguely) with a publication record on motorcycles.
So what about Queenie doing her bit in Dublin Castle last night? It's a tough old piece of leather to chew on but it's right. Look forward. Move on in a spirit of friendship. Leave those unable to adjust floundering in their own excrement. You can complain about the Monarchy but the unpalatable alternative was sitting beside her. I was impressed that she chose to wear diamonds enough to clear the Irish national debt. I don't think I've seen so much ice on one individual before.
Above it. The bit just in front of the Royal Crescent. The ha-ha is the dividing line (and as I'm sure you're aware) was put there to stop cows spoiling the Royal Crescent lawn. Well... firstly I don't particularly want a republic, I'm not a fan of the monarchy per-se but when I see appaling prime ministers (like Blair and also latter-day Thatcher) the last thing I want to do is give them more power. Secondly, if people believe in a republic the fair enough, but really 'a republican picnic'. Bit of a waste of time really (and it was this; the picnic as a political act that caused me to comment 'tossers') And, thirdly, IIRC you're an Irish citizen. I think you should mind your own business here...
