God will smite those who malign Pope Benyllin 93rd, previously known as Cardinal Ratfinger. At least he does not denounce infidels and suggest that they should be wiped from the earth.

Why do they always have Buy one get one free offers on gallon jars of Picked onions or other items which people only use occasionally.Another thing, the cunning sods always have special offers on certain flavours or varieties of products like crisps, sauces or drinks and then intermingle them with varieties which are not on offer. They also pile extremely similar items close by, so as to fool you into buying a full price product; "" 500g jar of ""cooking sauce for roadkill"" which is on special offer ,is put next to 600g jar of the same product which is at full price. Why, when something is on "" Buy one get one free"" offer, do you always find a solitary pack or jar left on the shelf.

So glad i ain't the only one Brengirl! Reading the above I can only assume the men in white coats are on their way or labour are using this article to 'cover up bad news(ie our primeminister being arrested twice!) Maybe The Bat could be 'not guilty'of doing away with him instead?

What a load of old twaddle. The how it works bit is not any government proposal but something dreamed up by the BBC as in "" The data was processed according to a road charging model drawn up by transport expert Professor Stephen Glaister of Imperial College, London."" So why not have a bit of scaremongering to wind up the terminally stupid ? Much as when the minimum wage was suggested. Millions would be thrown out of jobs and the economy would collapse. The same baseless whinging was around when the selt belt law was proposed as was when the breathalyser was brought in. Thankfully those charged with the task of sorting out transport in the next couple of decades appear to be putting a bit more thought into what they are doing than was has gone into regugitating this urban myth. And before you bleat out I've no more idea what they come up will work but I will at least wait and see what they are actually proposing rather than wet my knickers over what some second year media student on work experience has cobbled up for the BBC. Remember how there was going to be no gas last winter and we were all going to die of bird flu. "" ere, you from Bridport I've got this moon in a bucket of water, wanna buy it ? ""

cofee drinking landlords who feign surpise when people get drunk?

Gulls thrive on the refuse of humans. If we cant reduce the amount of refuse (gull food)the only answer is to reduce the number of humans in Bridport. A cull of grockles maybe?

I was thouroughly dismayed when building works began on what was once pleasent tranquil fields out of town. Now we have some disgusting ' Disney Castles ' as one passenger said of them on our ways to Dorchester itself, well, thats what they look like, Disney castles. I would have preferred if Bonny Prince Charlie did not come hear to plan a misguided architectural nightmare for us to look at, nevermind the expence, but now it's too late and, we'r stuck with it, and more buildings are springing up gobbling whatever land is left, and we've been had and overulled by this monstrosity making us feel powerless to stop it.

What you are all failing to realise is that any successful town intrinsically has the need to expand in order to accommodate its emergent populace. Keynes, the eminent economist who reached the pinnacle of his accomplishment in the early seventies, pointed out that the immobility of labour is a key aspect of staggering economic growth within a potentially viable community. Therefore, any viable and emergent community has the need to offer long-term incentives to attract the absent operatives into the labour market. The fact that the style of architecture is crap is neither here nor there. What do you expect from a bloke who’s best friends are house plants and has a wife who looks like a bloke?

Chesilbank if we were separated at birth then that explains the huge unsightly scar down my left side! Re. smoking, there are two kinds of people in this world. People who smoke, and people who complain about it. When the ban comes in to play, indoor areas at bars will become the moral high-ground, dotted with lonely non-smoker/sensible drinker-types; whereas the newly built, plush, outdoor heated, interestingly decorated, custom-made ""smoking gardens"" will be a hive of social activity. Non-smokers will find themselves peerless and have to engage in boring non-smoker conversations about bio-desiel and reusable nappies. July 1st isn't the start of ""the ban"", it's the start of a huge social divide. Let battle commence!!!

Do you think HRH head in the sand is interested in us yokels and our views??? No, Send for the butler to bring me another gin. I think she looks more like a horse than a bloke.

Posted by Ivor Bigun, on 15-02-2007 18:37,

Carlito i must have made a mistake, we can't have been seperated at birth as you say the scar is on your left side, i, as usual, am on the right side. I look forward to the start of the smoking ban when you and you stinking friends can sit outside the pub in your little room coughing your guts up and slowly killing yourselves. I am a little confused in your answer to Skelliton when you say, and i quote,your just afraid of fresh air, get out there, fill those lungs! i'm more than happy to fill my lungs with fresh air, not the crap you smokers breath out, you've had it your way too long, it's time for a change, BRING ON THE BAN.

Posted by chesilbank, on 15-02-2007 19:37,

Its now slowly coming to everyones attention that becoming a politicion is all about how quick you can get into a position of power, and then fleece the tax payer of all that is due to them whilst not letting them know what your doing. A little bit of tax here,take a little away there and then retire to a cushty job in Brussels before anyone knows !! There's more crooks in the commons than in our jails today.

Posted by Carlito, on 16-02-2007 10:55,

Yes, I agree. Horse-bloke is a fair description. Having seen the item on breakfast tv about school cooks meeting said HRH up in that London or some such exotic location I was willing a cheeky chef to take on the cause ""Now then Chaz, what you playing at with this Poundbury lark then"", but no such luck. I saw the pointy tower thing in progress as I drove by, Looks like it's going to be a supermarket, or a pigeon loft maybe. Possible a refuge for abused fruit and house plants or a new home for the sea gulls of Bridport who are in shock from the beauty (ha) of the development at West Bay. On the subject of horses I would have to say not a favourite pony club type horse. More a good solid farm horse???.

ha, I guess it was written by you Charlie after reading the first sentence!

Most smokers seem to think they are special in some way, so, we should make them feel special. Perhaps they should all wear yellow hats??. Large numbers seem unable to read or understand 'no smoking' signs. Perhaps nicotine softens the brain???.

Posted by The Bat, on 16-02-2007 20:18,

Carlito, if you,as a non smoker, want to be a smoker sympathiser, then be prepared to be tarred with the same brush, that includes your lungs ! sorry if the spelling is a little off but i'm not a sensible drinker, cheers. I'm sure that nicotine softens the brain, chief, and also makes the user extremely SELFISH, keep your smoke to yourself, we don't want it. hic hic.

Posted by The Bat, on 16-02-2007 23:05,

Yellow nicotine coloured hats sounds good. Maybe bearing the slogan 'I smoke therefore I die horribly of a degenerative lung disease and leave behind a widow and maybe a few children who won’t have a father or mother and as a result will grow up all bitter and socially isolated which may very well make me turn to drugs and shoplift a lot’ Sounds like a catchy slogan to me!

Moaning old gits who add their angry little niggles to a long list of things that annoy other angry old gits. Especially when the list of angry old git niggles is continuation of previous angry old git niggles. One Round One Kill

This is an appalling article. Is she writing about the town I've lived in for thirty five years? If she is I don't recognise it. 'Rural Workers and Fishermen' What is she on about? I say 'AYE' MorningLookingForHerCat

Posted by Ivor Bigun, on 22-02-2007 20:27,

So long as The Bat is not the first performer on this new sex webcam, i'm not going to dismiss the idea !!

Posted by dragon, on 22-02-2007 22:06,

May i, in the most pleasant way possible remark about the poor standards of spelling and grammar in this column? We are all assumed to be ""grumpy ol' gits"", which means we all should have been educated in the good old fashioned values of manners, spelling grammar and all those essential qualities to carry us successsfully through life!(thats something along the lines of what i was told at school at least). Words such asbuses, through,aisles, vehicles,incessantly,vivnity,c ursory, here,halitosis and some terrible grammatical errors in a recent communication on this page prompted thei response from me, so sorry and hello skelliton haha9or is that skellington?

Posted by Rustic, on 25-02-2007 17:54,

Ah Tuzo, you have missed my point about the pope and his fear filled, guilt ridden, dare not question, bunch of followers, I meant to take a wider swipe and say ""does anyone believe in this god nonsense anymore"" but something or someone (ooo how spooky) must have guided my hand. I saw a bunch of fish off west bay the other day swimming up and down and then jumping and then going round in circles but apparently cod does move in mysterious ways So back to the point in question ""and another thing"", any one who is daft enough to base their entire belief system on a book that was written and heavily edited centuries after any events portrayed in it and that was translated from ancient Greek and Hebrew with all the errors that were bound to occur. I don't know about you but I do know the way a story changes from one side of the pub to another.

'people can dramatically improve their lives followed by refreshments' - I should cocoa.

Posted by andy head, on 26-02-2007 10:53,

Dragon - I think that should be ""old-fashioned"", with a hyphen.

Posted by Rustic, on 26-02-2007 19:55,

I wonder what I could grow in an insulated indoor growing cabinet. Excotic POT plants spring to mind but my question is why is it insulated if it is going to be indoors? I mean isn't that the point of being indoors.
