Sunday in UK

Today is my boys football day.
Match 1 at 10am and I am the official linesman.
Match 2 at 2pm just 7 miles away

Unfortunately the weather forecast is rain.

New York city should take note!!!

EXCELLENT IDEA 

In Seville, Spain, the City Council authorized the construction of a Mosque on one of the empty pieces of land.

The citizens did not want the mosque built in their vicinity and found a brilliant solution.

They buried a pig in the land, and made the news public.

The Islamic law prohibits the construction of a mosque on the lands desecrated by remains of pigs, therefore the Muslims had to renounce the construction on this desecrated land...
The commentaries of the Civil Guard (Police) are very interesting. Maybe it is the solution needed by New York to avoid the construction of a mosque in the vicinity of the twin towers.

The Israelis have been using a similar strategy since 2004. They placed boxes containing pig lard on the buses in Israel and made it public that any kamikaze suicide bomber who tries to assault a bus, risks the prohibition of entering the heaven by getting the lard on his/her self.  

There are no suicide bombers on the buses in Israel any more. 

Another Footballer scandal is on the grapevine

I hear that a Liverpool player is about to be exposed as having an affair or having a prostitute.
However, another grapevine tells me it's his missus who is having an affair with a drug Baron in Liverpool.
I guess the 2 could go together?

Chairman of Pakistan Cricket retracts the accusation of England fixing.

Well what a surprise!!!
They accused the England team to detract from their own problems and now one or two now of their players admitting it, this idiot has backed down and the threat of legal action I guess.
He should be sacked from the Pakistan Cricket Board as it's not his first screw up.

If it was England he would either be sacked or asked to resign, but I guess this guy who is on good salary etc wont' do the honourable thing!!

Pakistan Cricket team now splitting and showing their colours!

As I said previously, the Pakistani team are a bunch of liars.
In todays press it says that Teen bowler Moh'd Amir was told by his Captain to throw the game.
There you have it, from one of the horses mouth.
Of course the Captain Salman Butt will deny it, but we ALL know they are a bunch of thieving bastards!
Also the Ambassador and the the head of Pakistan Cricket Board should resign, because they are as bad as the others i.e. all on the take and a bunch of CHEATERS !

Why don't we use the same rule as they do in their country.
All guilty until proven innocent! May save millions in court bills

Trained monkeys guard athletes at Commonwealth Games

Trained langur monkeys are being deployed by organisers of the Commonwealth Games to prevent wild animals infesting sporting venues in Delhi.

The highly intelligent primates have been patrolling stadiums and accommodation blocks to scare off other wildlife including wild monkeys, dogs and even snakes.

Handlers from miles around the Indian capital have been drafted in to patrol the athletes’ village as the final preparations are made for the games.

Some teams threatened to boycott the competition after complaining that the accommodation was inhabitable and overrun with animals.

One shocked South African competitor even discovered a deadly cobra snake in his room.

Heavy monsoon rains have caused flooding near the Games Village causing many snakes to seek refuge.

Commonwealth Games organisers have also been particularly concerned buy the arrival of packs of wild monkeys which have been creating a nuisance around the venues by stealing food and attacking humans.

Langur monkeys are noted for their intelligence but also their aggression and are highly effective in deterring other animals from taking up residence.

The Commonwealth Games are due to get under way at the weekend and will be officially opened by the Prince of Wales.

This should make the competitors feel really safe !!!

I thought the headline related to the locals at first!!!

Bentley to recall cars over fears 'Flying B' could impale pedestrians

An Article in the Daily Telegraph today!

This has never happened and looking at the sign it isn't likely to unless at tremendous force.

Bentleys are known to be safe as people who have them are generally, geriatrics who drive slow or if a younger person like 45 years old, they don't want to spoil the car anyway.

Another elf & safty mark!!

=======================================================================

Bentley, the British car maker, is to recall hundreds of vehicles in the United States because of fears that pedestrians could be impaled on the iconic "Flying B" bonnet ornament in a crash.

The winged statue is designed to retract in the event of a collision, but fears have been raised that the mechanism may fail if the ornament gets rusty.

"There is a potential for the 'B' hood ornament's retracting mechanism to become corroded. This may lead to the 'B' hood ornament not retracting as intended when a vehicle is involved in a crash," a recall notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said.

"If the hood ornament does not retract, it could increase the risk of injury to a pedestrian in the event of a crash between the vehicle and the pedestrian," the agency added.

The recall affects the Arnager, Arnaget, Arnage RL, Brooklands and Azure models from 2007 to 2009, some of which come with a recommended price tag of well over $300,000 (£191,680). The NHTSA estimated around 600 cars are implicated.

The recall is highly unusual for Bentley, which manufactures some of the world's most expensive and sought-after vehicles.

The company decided to recall the cars after a dealer spotted the problem in Britain.

In notifying NHTSA of the risk that pedestrians could be harmed by a rusty "B" sign, Bentley stressed that "this condition has not been witnessed by or reported to Bentley Motors Limited, neither is Bentley otherwise aware of any accidents or injuries related to this matter."

The company has pledged to fix the problem at dealerships beginning later this month for free.
