My card sending days are complete over, I have nobody to send a card to in the whole world. I just buy a Christmas card for myself and put it with the rest of them on date together.

A real Christmas tree is far better for the environment because after Christmas the tree is either planted in a garden or used as grounded up for potting compost when destroyed.

As a migrant into the UK of 50 years ago, I did find it very strange when my wife reached the ag of 65 and had to wait till the next year to receive her due pension. That is the problem with this country, old antique thinking from the dark ages to go into today's thinking. The thinking will never get changed until this country accepts the fact that we are all living in 2019 and not in 1719 anymore.

I want to see something interesting or funny when I watched something on the television and not a boring conversation between two people who do not what to say and how to say. It would be a complete boring watch to anybody whom is watching this conversation.

I really think people are silly trying to talk around the truth specially when it is more than clear that they are trying to evade it when it is in plain sight. No matter if you are a Royal or just the man in the street. Be a man and come straight out into the light.The trouble being that some Royals think their use of a toilet stink less than someone else's. as we are all humans, we are all fallible.

Why this silly 2question is put onto the public, I really do not know. I played tag when I was a little boy and my father was pleased because I got rid that way of a lot of extra stamina, which I am now missing at 80. I rather see the youngsters run around instead of buying their noses into some silly game on the computer.

There is a great diversity in dogs like there are many in men. The last dog I had was a great Dane, 70 kg and 1 meter at the shoulder. On a particular day I was walking with him along a canal path when without reason or rhyme, a youngster threw a banger at him. That was a very stupid thing to do because my dog was not afraid of it, it made him angry and he went immediately for the youngster. Luckily I had him on two leashes and could hold him back. Have anyone ever see a great Dane in attack mode?It is not nice to look at that gaping mouth and those big teeth, well the youngster did not like the picture and thus he befouled himself. What I mean with this story is the fact that fire works are OK but regard where and when you light them. I used to live in a country where the banger were put into letter boxes and letter slots in front doors, and that is not on, one even tried to see what would happen when he threw one at me, he still will remember the result of that because I did hit him quite hard. One should be conscious about the use of bangers and not over do it.

The question is very silly in my opinion and I wonder about the people whom are posing questions like this one. After being shot in the last war, now I am quite a bit older I can hardly stand in a long queue for some time before I get wobbly. I should say that any surgery should not be done standing up, that is quite ridiculous. There should be more and better seating arrangements instead, not less I dare say..

I am really and truly amazed that nobody, but nobody, has come yet with the advice to "do away" with the oldies. I have come across people while driving whom shouted at me that I should stop driving because of my age. In the past 10 years I had a few accidents because people coming out of a parking place did not look around being too busy squawking on their mobiles and not paying attention to traffic. I was hit on the left those times when someone drove onto the road, crossing a footpath, a pavement and the inside lane of a 2up and 2 down road, after a lot of to-do I was shouted at that I was too old to drive and I should have stopped when his highness came onto the road from the left. Another time the same happened when someone drove onto the road from the left and not bothering to look around. I was told that I was demented, and paranoid schizo and should be locked up. Strangely though all these thoughts were voiced by quite younger persons who were driving on the road. The same goes for youngsters on the pavement. They walk 4 abreast and wanted me to step into the road thus they could on and not need to give a spacewalk unhindered and not need to give me any space, calling me a pervert, a lecher and I should be told to stay at home. Maybe the word "killing off" should have been used to make clear that people over 70 are not useful anymore and taking up space for nothing. The youngster should think very hard about things like this because of the oldies they are on this world of ours.

Who wants another general for nothing to be gained I wonder? One prime minister stepped down after an election because the go group had won and he could not stand the loss of face. the next prime minister stepped up and was immediately attacked by all and sundry at infinitum and afterwards she had to go as well. Now the new prime minister is taking the brunt and running the gauntlet and not managing anything but fighting a loosing battle. Where will it all ends ? Probably when some more cabinet members have tried and failed and finally real sense has permeated in peoples brains, after Great Britain disappears as a grand nation, the pound has fallen close to the bottom of the scales and English people do not exists anymore, maybe then finally people have the sense to do something rational about the mess that has been created "cabinet members" will be sorted out and the long climb up will start to get Great Britain back on track. But for me I do not see that happen soon.

The problem nowadays is that people do not want to listen to other people who have just causes to protest on what is going on in the world. I do not know if anybody in Great Britain has watched the news from outside, if so then one should think about the farmers protest in Holland, where the farmers closed of whole cities without any protest from the community, only when they began to damage personal property did the police act. That is the problem today, people do not want to listen to other people problems, only their own is the most important to them, no matter how much harm it causes to others. We all have to talk (not shout and scream) to each other that is where reason starts to come out and vandalism disappears.

I have been told that Mr Boring has had a decent upbringing and backup, if so I do really wonder why is it then that he lives with "his girl" friend and does not have an abode of his own? If he is as good as has been mentioned, does he know what happend in the time of Charles I and Cromwell? Does he know about the Cavaliers and round hats? Does he know why the war of Roses were fought and why the Royal Treasure was thrown into the waste? Does he know/understand the geography of his own people and country? The way he goes about I sincerely doubt that. And why when he is mister plastic fantastic did he not step into the shoes of Mr Cameron when stepped down? Instead he started to bully the new Prime ministers without rhyme nor reason, do people really trust him and think he is the bees knees? I see this beautiful and peaceful country going to rack and ruin and it will take a real Man/Woman to put it all up to rights again. What a shame and waste. His hollow phrases are showing more holes than a colander, his promisses are easily put aside with a few simple methods in changing a few of our own laws, if he could bring up thinking time about these easy solutions. I do not like bullies because in themselves they have not the faintest of ideas how to deal with problems in depth.

As usual the blame is put where there is no blame. The flocks of sae gulls is due to human waste. People throwing away food rests around where they stay on holiday give the gulls reasons enough naturally to breed more chicks which is a natural things to do for animals. make people realise that and make people deposit the food rests into the bins ( hah hah hah) around will terminete the problem in time. making people do somethings like that will be very difficult as people are all lazy when it comes doing the right thing fro the right reason. I remember when i was young and went one holiday with my parents,we always had paper bags to put allkind of rubish to be deposited in the first bin we came to, never throwing anything around. My parents were very far sighted.

I would like to try anything that does not include medications from a laboratory as I am already using natural medications for a long time when I suffer an illness any time and I do feel very well with using them all these years. but has it been proved that singing is beneficial to an illness? Or is it just the thought and movements of the body that does the healing to the illness in that body?

I am not familiar with this series and wonder if it is any good for an 80 year old widower whom not long lost his beloved wife to a despicable illness

I do find it silly to drop a show indefinitely because one of the quests passed away shortly afterwards. Jeremy does not health check his quests because of this and anyhow it would have probably costs this man's life even if he did not attend the show or anything like. He might have a weak heart to begin with and probably he knew about that himself. The same happened to Tommy Cooper and yet that show has had a comeback.

I am always ready to try a new recipe as I like to cook a lot myself. Hot cross bun flavoured cheese is new one to me against recipes as "sardines and strawberry" and " salad of lettuce and banana" to name a few. This one sounds more like someone took a serious thought of how to cross what with what. Might become a serious contender.

The trouble with people nowadays is the fact that they keep on thinking about whatever problems they have had during day time while they are sleeping. This happens subconsciously without them really knowing it. What I do, and believe me I have had and still have deep soul problems, family wise and friends whom I thought were really good friends. One half hour in the night before I turn the lights off before I go to sleep I "empty" my head of these thoughts very thoroughly and then I switch the lights off. I go to bed at 21.00 hours and sleep till 06.00 hours, completely refreshed and relaxed.

I have been driving for 70 years and all the car accidents I went through were always the other party fault. You cannot imagine the number of times my car was hit while parked decently in a bay. Then there have been people in a hurry and not looking around, or putting the gear shift in reverse instead of drive. The most memorable accident I had was on the M! going to London. The stream in 3 lanes was going very slowly and I saw in my rear view mirror that the driver behind me started reading the paper. There was a gap and I drove vastly forward and the car behind me saw that and started up as well. But then I had to stop suddenly and the car behind me pushed the acceleration pedal instead of the brake. Thus he smashed into my rear and of course the orchestra of car horns started to moan. I got out of my car and so did the driver behind me. He was very frustrated and wanted to smash my glasses of my face. I took them off and invited him to go with me to the layby and sort our business out there. But he declined, his problem was that he drove a light weight car and I was driving a Volvo estate with a towing hook. My damage was negligible, his car had to be towed away. I always say and still do, when you are driving to concentrate on that and nothing else. No smoking, eating, phoning, patting your girlfriend or kissing her. People are not the same thus any age limit might help some but are a hindrance to more. One has to be realistic as a car owner and drive with concentration.

People are all running around as if there is a war coming around the corner, what nonsense. We have our country, laws and constitution, what more do people want. During the last war in the beginning people did not stock up the way they are going to now with all the doomsayers spouting rubbish. Just live your life and see what is coming up, there will be no shortage only different products under a different name with the same results as food, medications and so on. It will no be soon enough for me when parliament will wake up and kust get out of the EU without any payment making for something that was a complete waste of time, trouble and money.

I got to know Brussels sprouts at a very young age, I was 7 then, and became very sick and threw up like anything and my mother became very anxious at that moment thinking that I had swallowed something wrong. Going through the years till at this moment, I still tried them time and again with the same results. My wife liked them vey much and cooked a cabbage for me to such perfection that I at a whole cabbage while she was eating sprouts. Any other type of cabbage, cauliflower, red cabbage, Chinese cabbage, no problems there only sprouts and I still do not know why I become sick as anything eating Brussels sprouts.

A vote is a vote and when one party does not win so be it. Otherwise we will be voting and voting till the cows get home. Grow up I say and grin and bear it.

I have had a free license longer than 2 years as I am 79 at the moment and my free license started when my dear wife was still with me before she passed away in September 2014 and I still hear saying that the free license was very good because we do not watch regularly TV, too much rubbish is put and it is just to much to even look at it. I have bought then quite a few films on DVD and Video to watch we like to see and thus we only use the TV as a viewer for our kind of info we like to watch.

I always like to be in command when I drive a car myself thus I have in the past 60 years or more never had an accident. One cannot say the same about driverless cars as they had already several accidents even before the came onto the road. I still say that they are a danger on the roads whenever they will appear on it.

definitely not, the poll for Brexit was fair and square and the losers are trying to get their way, why should they? in any poll there are winners and losers and there forever will be another poll and another poll. Sick to my back teeth am I about these losers, you lost, take your loss as an adult and not as alittle child.

You bet your life it would not be case. At this moment in time I am 79 years of age and I started with computing in the military and followed up in the civilian work place. I have seen computers as big as anything in a big hall to change into very small towers as I have now. I build my own PC with 2 x 2 GB hard drives, an extension with 4 GB hard drive and another with 8 GB hard drive. I have 2 printers and 3 screens and too I am using a front end processor. In total I work at my system about 2 hours through the whole day, doing a lot of brainwork and thinking about modifications. That is where now a days youth lacks, they do not use their brains to think, just to hang their hoods on.

Nowadays these youngsters are so immersed in their gams that they do not see the possibilities there are in the nature world to get a healthy body and mind instead of finger rapidity on the control board. As a youngster myself I went into the nature for long walks, swimming in wood lakes and climbing. I regularly did a long walk (50 km) per day for 4 days over the road (Nijmegen) and after that another 50 km a day for 4 days in Apeldoorn through the woods and fields. Many times I went camping in my bicycle with sturdy back pack with a metal frame work, setting up my tent in a field close to a farm so I could get fresh milk in the early morning and if needed I was helping the farmers helping to get the stuff into the barns. That is how I spend my younger years.

I still use Heinz Salad Cream on salads, on sandwiches, French fries and steaks medium rare, reading all this it would be quite simple minded to just use one particular bit in order to get a misunderstood name for a brand that everybody knows on the old fashioned name. I am a very old fashioned man, there have been too many name changes in the past year.
