Your comments could apply to the UK or any other 'western' country (including Australia) that has an immigration issue. Col

No. But Its nothing to do with Pat. So don't get out your pram. I just agree with Thales. Col

It doesn't surprise me that it's allegedly incorrect. Col

So does that mean that all the people in Washington on Jan 6th were arrested? Col

I actually don't. Nor do I know who 'john' is referring to - maybe some politician? As far as I can see, this thread is yet another wonderful display of (mostly) American paranoia, a bit George Orwell (ish). Col

So what's the problem? Also, who are 'they'? If I'm tracked it must be really exciting for the watcher to see me go to Sainsburys to get food or get a bus to town for shopping. Stay legal and live a normal life and you've got nothing to worry about. Col

I don't understand what you mean. Free fights? To where? What's 'the johns'? I understand you call prostitutes 'hookers'. Col

There doesn't seem to be much parking restrictions in America anyway. In films or TV programmes you can drive up and park right outside the building or shop for free. There is always acres of space even on main busy roads in big cities. BTW, in the UK, a latte coffee from Costa or Starbucks...

In the UK, motorcycle parking is usually free. Also in most cities motorbikes can use bus lanes. Col

Only the parents can decide if they can afford to raise a child properly. It's a big responsibility not to be taken lightly in a fit of passion. Women are designed to raise children, if they can't do it responsibly they should think twice. Col

Mothers these days are too quick to fob off their children to any Tom, Dick or Harry to look after whilst they go to work because they love the fact that someone else brings up the kid. Any mother who passes their child around like a bag of sweets must to be seriously deranged. They happily...

In a conventional band you usually have drums, bass guitar, rhythm guitar and lead guitar. The rhythm guitar is the chord instrument and the lead is more the melody - think Hank Marvin, The Shadows or the Ventures. I'm not much cop at chords so play lead. Incidentally, the bass guitar doesn't...

I agree, but I felt i was too old to do that and being at the root a drummer, I concentrated on the bass guitar. Then progressed to the stratocaster. Col

Given that 360 million people in the USA can't put up a decent honest sensible candidate for the presidency, I would say Trump is the better candidate of the two. He will win no doubt - but be careful what you wish for. Col

I started learning drums in about 1961 when I first heard 'let there be drums' by Sandy Nelson. As I said elsewhere, I played in several bands for years, and then learnt the bass guitar and played that in an orchestra and did 3 European tours. Then I graduated to 6 string electric which I now...

There is so much anger / war / despair/ corruption in the world today. I rarely watch the news now. I've no interest in politics as they're all idiots. I live alone but see my wife daily (she is in a care home, she has multiple sclerosis), I have a car but I'm toying with not having one, buses...

I think my drumming skills may have deteriorated as I haven't played in a band since covid came. Guitar wise I'm a newbie as I've only been playing for 10 years or so, I played bass guitar in an orchestra and still do the odd gig on bass if a band needs one to fill in. I'm not sure I could do 4...

It's a journey I've been on since I learned to play drums 60 years ago aged 12. It started with 'Let There Be Drums' by Sandy Nelson (hear it on Spotify) then through various groups and European tours, I'm still at it. Now I play guitar just at home, drums are too loud. Col

If you say so - I didn't. But I think you're wrong thinking that. Col

When one worships something/someone you are blind to any other opinion or point of view. It doesn't matter what it is - God, money, Koran, Harley Davidson, or Donny Trump. There are certainly some here who are in love with Donny. Col
