They are!

Isn't a large vocabulary one of the best free things in life ?

It means you never have to resort to fucking swearing every other word.

Heap, heep, we could add the Dutch hiep

Funnily enough I've been listening to Drs. P in the car a lot lately.

Nothing to do with politics, but just posted because I know a few peeps here will appreciate a nice picture.

IRL I detest all dogs (which makes me a cat person 😺). However I love wolves. Isn't it ironic ?

Drs P and wolves, de Dodenrit.

Knolraap en lof, schorseneren en prei 🎶

I hadn't heard those songs for a very long time. Thanks for reminding me @pointythings

Omsk is een leuke stad, maar net iets te ver weg 🎵.

I do like to maintain my Dutch, and Drs P uses such excellent vocab and rhyme. My aunt used to work for the AVRO and met him a couple of times, says he was a lovely man.

I thought it was strange they had been identified as ‘German Shepherd type’ when they are so obviously wolf cross breed - Tamaskan etc. Preston Council’s kennel contractor don’t know their arse from their elbows . I’m glad they were taken into the care of people who can spot a wolf attribute when it comes up and licks them on the face.

They just look nice.

However, I have now learned that for the purposes of the law, a wolf breed is only legal if it is 3 generations from the wolf. Which sounds a bit of a weird way to judge it (especially when you have zero idea of where an animal comes from).

Surely (as suggested in the article) it would be easier to work on a %age of wolf DNA ?

Anyway bring back wolves. They can keep the deer epidemic under control.

Shiny new thread

Thanks @placemats

Right, that’s you off my Christmas card list @SerendipityJane! How can anyone detest these?

Sorry, people complaining of a deer epidemic - VENISON!

Venison sausages are flipping gorgeous, especially with a glass of the best Irish stout. The kill is a single gun shot through the head. Then transport to the local butchery.

🤣You should post this to the new thread in case people haven't seen it

Funny how the narrative we have been sold for the better part of a millennia seems to have been spectacularly wrong.

Britain - far from being at the arse end of empire continues to serve up finds that are unknown anywhere else in the entire empire. And "Romanity" continued long after "the Romans" left

I love watching Digging for Britain

Jeremy Vine’s latest nonsense (via threads). This is for his Channel 5 show (American owned) but he’s not much better on Radio 2. How is this sort of idiocy passed for broadcast?

How many of those petitions have now been filed?

Some good news to end the thread with
