    it all started because I was talking about how we used to hunt rabbits and hare to fill the pot in the strike,apparently I'm a cowboy for doing it;)

    Two wrongs don't make a right.

    You have admitted on here that you hunt with dogs (hare coursing) and you shoot wild animals.

    As far as the opinion of the general public goes.........you are one of the dregs of society............in a bracket with a whole load of other horrible social categories

    I think there are more important issues related to it certainly.

    I was working at Yorkshire Bank at the time. They were a really good company at the time. They froze all the miner's loans & charged no interest during the strike. They then reconstituted them when the strike was over.

    Sadly the bank was taken over by National Australia Bank in 1989. I got in a big row with my regional manager because I wouldn't sell personal loan insurance to people who weren't eligible, which eventually lead to me leaving on grounds of constructive dismissal after 13 years service. Laughing my ****ing socks off now they have set aside about a billion quid. c__ts.

    I can tell that you .........'couldn't give a flying **** what you (I) think'...............hence the number of replies from you

    I have shown that the hunting shoot um up guy that you think you are........in reality is just a scared little boy who is taking his anguish out on small animals that can't fight back

    Home on leave from Kuwait - Picked up a hire car and appreciated the absence of the law on the M1. Could not believe the people with whom I had been brought up, from whose stock I was, following a self opinionated, un charismatic marxist dictator, like sheep, into poverty. No vote. Just lets follow our leader. It had all the outward appearance of Hitler, with less than a third of the vote, taking Germany on it's disastrous path.

    Having a striking mate to play tennis with all summer

    Said mate saying that he went to a picket but that there were idiots there just wanting a fight and that he wouldn't be going back to picket, or to work, till it was all over

    Personally, I remember a bloke swiping a loaf of bread out of my hands as I walked along, saying "i'm on strike"

    Things had got that bad

    maybe those 'sheep' wernt sheep at all and they were actually striking because they wanted to save their pits and communities,and they unlike you actually believed scargill about the hitlist.which as you may now know has been proved to be correct.
    emley moor pit up near where you live was always profitable and they were still winning coal by hand filling.

    Is it wrong to eat those boil in the bag goldfish you get from fairgrounds?

    If it is I apologise! I also wonder why they come with so much water?!? Takes chuffing ages to cook.

    Not a strike memory like, but I thought if its good for the goose it's good for the gander. That brings me onto my Cannon Hall/Air Rifle days..... ah the memories!


    Coal not Mole........... although tasty little fookers they are

    The Strike:
    It started with a 25yard cross field pass from Nicky Eaden and then sweetly hit with the outside of his right foot Darren Barnard bent the ball in from the edge of the penalty box to the top right hand corner of the Huddersfield goal! 6 nil to the reds before half time!
