repeat .

like television do you find like me you are repeating yourself .this may be just me but all fashions come back ,music of your ear always tries to make comebacks and i may even repeat myself in posts.

please ,thank you.

the above words seem to be odd to use as most people expect rudeness as the norm these days.my grandad told me when i was a youngster to always to say pease,thank you ,be polite to others and you will go far and i have carried this on as much as possible in my life .i even try not to swear as to easy to get in this mode ,no dear reader not forcing my views on you just my opinion.

head fuck.

i have finally realised i am my own worst enemy when things said or done get inside my head.i become more o.c.d and paranoid and in turn tend to do more stupid stuff then become more guilt ridden then become a vicious cycle .so i have made steps to change and let live carry on and be no matter what in manner .

olympics rio 2016

team g.b final table we finished second with 27 golds,23 silvers,17 bronze -67 in total,not bad for an island nation who once where lucky to get a medal on the table in years gone by .but thanks to investment from the national lottery and a chance of attitude of trying to win instead of just doing our best .this i believe wiil inspire others to carry on in this vain.

Is there a big cat roaming round Leeds?

A ZOOLOGY graduate has set up a webcam with a motion detector in a bid to verify a recent sighting of a big cat in Leeds. James Downs and his partner, Anna Lepianka, saw the animal stalking through a field near a disused railway line on the outskirts of the city on Wednesday afternoon. James, 37, said: “It was about the size of a Labrador, and dark coloured with a long tail. It was prowling at the bottom of the field and went up into the brambles. “I used to work in a zoo and was a zoologist by degree. It was no Collie – it was definitely a cat. Its front shoulder blades were popping like cats’ do. “Unfortunately we don’t have a photograph. It was about half a mile away.” They couple spotted the animal from their home in Stanks Drive, Swarcliffe, at about 2pm. “I walked up to the field about 20 minutes later to have a nosey,” James said. “It’s a deer path and if it’s a big cat it will follow the scent.” There were no footprints but James found two shredded pigeons, and hopes to catch the animal on film as hard proof.

Killer shark off Cornwall?

In a scene reminiscent of the film Jaws, a fisherman out on the water has said he was nearly toppled from his wooden boat by the man eating shark.

The angler was out looking for mackerel a mile off the coast of St Ives, when suddenly his boat was rammed by the 7ft fish.

As it swam away – passing another boat – he identified it as an oceanic white tip, a shark famed for feeding frenzies around shipwrecks and plane crashes.

While the prospect of this killing machine swimming around our coast sounds terrifying, before any one flees the water, experts are already pouring cold water on the reports.

They claim the shark, normally found in tropical waters, has never been seen this far north – and even if it has entered our waters it will be virtually comatose by the cold.

Nevertheless the fisherman are adamant.-read more
