I wish just one time NASA would show the craft getting closer and closer to the moon bit by bit until its so close its its impossible to see the shape of it. Then it lowering down bit by bit until it lands on this mysterious moon. We have the most advanced cameras ever in our history but never get to see these amazing achievements.

Still can't believe what our trident submarine did the other day.

Wow that's crazy I honestly had not seen that story until you posted but what the hell is going on Would be interested in Snowy's point of view on this

Eeyy up. The conspiracy theorists are out.

Not one of Putin's aides are you ?...believe me mate,you'll be found out!!

Ask the ones putting out the propaganda. Tests go wrong ask the time. The vast majority pass, they just are not news worthy.

Don't be silly we all know the Moon is made of cheese.

Going to the Moon…..why

Wallace and Gromit proved in the Grand Day Out in 1989

Must be true then , but could they identify the flavour, I do like a nice Double Gloucester or Crumbly Lancashire.
Thanking you in anticipation.

Apparently they dare not drill too far into the moons surface incase it goes pop. Strange how it completely blocks out the sun on a solar eclipse as the chances of that are a million to one. Manufactured by aliens to keep everything right on earth so they say.

I was informed that beneath the moons crust the planet has a huge soft core of Primula cheese, the toothpaste cheese as I call it and if we damage it he surface by letting Beardy Branson and the like organise BeeLine in space glorified bus tours it will collapse into an unstable blob which will cover the earth in soft cheese…

I've got the first MacDonalds franchise on the moon's surface, bought it a few years back off a bloke at the top of Belk Street called Norman, he assured me there was a drive through option included, although I'm not quite sure what vehicles would use it.....now where did I put it?...

Isn't that where all the Woolworth stores went to? I believe Pic 'n Mix is doing very well there.

Would that be Norman Tangleweed, his father had the Taxidermist and Horse meat arcade on the Central Estate…married Rampton Rogers daughter Polly…?

I am convinced any thing to do with space is just a huge job creation scheme for graduates who are brilliant but social misfits.
They send a probe up and then announce it’ll take 25 years to reach some intergalactic service area in God knows where and then thousands of them sit around in huge control complexes looking at screens and throw on the odd scare story about an asteroid that will pass close by to keep the interest up….
As a kid me Dad called us in to see the moon landing…..I thought it was shite and sneaked out while he waffled on about trips to the moon in twenty years

That's the shyster, was a big noise in the local Headland and district Meccano owners club, once built a replica scaled down version of the old Clarence Road stand which was on display at the Gray Art gallery and museum until somebody stole it and weighed it in.

I always thought it was Arthur Plumploaf who did the Meccano model of the Stand, but it could have been a mistake as in later years he pioneered open air ‘Seniors Pole Dancing’ lessons in West View Cemeteryat midnight with Kate Nibbler, always said it saved time if things went wrong.

Do you describe yourself as free thinker by any chance?

Good question,snowy...wouldn't the money be better spent clearing up the Roswell incident back in 1947 ?

Roswell, another load of cobblers and it had to be in the USA….because unsurprisingly 9O% of all UFO sightings in the entire world are in the USA….a nation of loons.

Well I certainly am not a sheeple.

Spot on .We've been saying this on the Big Foot forum for years.

And if one in a hundred was telling the truth,snowy?

I think the figure would be closer to none in a hundred….the stats tell you all you need to know, a nation of simple folk.

Well I was married to one and yes they are simple folk.

surprised me some wank has never said the world just consists of the land of the free and all other countries are just planets revolving around it.

Nothing wrong with Americans. They're just people like us.

Some of those surveys with US students at top university’s are quite enlightening, especially when confronted with a map of the world with borders and no names on them and asked to choose which country is the USA…..a surprisingly large percentage chose Russia because it was the biggest country on the map

same as the leaders and the populations of communist countries and the nazi,s if you look at it that way. only ever met tourists from the usa and if they are anything to go by they are absolute arrogant loud mouthed twats who wanted their arses wiping. we might have poor politicians but compare them to a choice of trump and the senile biden they do not seem that bad.

I prefer to treat people as individuals. Pretty sinister stuff having a sweeping opinion on a whole group of people over something as ridiculous as their nationality. Exactly the kind of attitude that keeps the likes of Putin in power.

Any updates on Elon Musk's plans to colonise Mars by 2050. anyone up for it?

you can be lucky or unlucky with individuals. meet decent ones of all races and religeons will give you a decent outlook on them than if the opposite occurs. most people generalise to an extent on things you see and hear on top of their own individual experiances of people. think at times you need to generalise positivly or negativly regarding some race as individuals alone might not be the norm. even as fans away from home we are not judged by individuals but as the whole group itself which is made up of individual fans.

Chill….but you can have a sweeping opinion about Man U ‘fans’.

nothing wrong with fans of that club, its the ones who say they are but never see a live match are the ones i object strongly too. they also tend to spend a fortune on anything with the club crest and name on it to prove to others the length they go to in their support for the side.

If you want to be a true Man U fan you have to have the wallpaper, duvet, mugs (various) shirts, coat, jacket, underpants and be bang in the middle of the fanatics behind the goal on the big screen in the pub.

can never understand the great love so many have for that club. you need to be in your mid 70,s at least to remember munich and even in their most successful period under ferguson it was hard to like a side managed by him. remember my old man calling them a womans club and her in the kitchen who loves em underlined that comment.

I know two people over the years who go to Pools frequently but say Man U are their main team, yet neither have set foot in Old Trafford…I think it’s a sign of insecurity and a source of being uncomfortable and reluctant to call themselves Pools supporters, a bit pathetic really and even snobby in my opinion.

had one of these like that when i worked in coventry. you name it and he had everything man.u related you could buy. knew he never went after asking him directions to the ground and where to park and i am still waiting for a reply. many who do go though question our sanity for supporting a team like pools even when we were in the league and think we suffer from some form of reverse snobbery who love being underdogs and could never live with success.

Success would never turn my head, but I could live comfortably with it, no problem.

Those Bigfoot's are breeding out of control in the States, need to bring in some form of birth control to keep the numbers at a respectable rate, the way we're destroying their natural environments they'll have to resort to food banks and busking in the underpasses. Those Henderson's have got a lot to answer for...

Back in the 80s a mate of mine got a job on a farm in Elwick very close to that play area and small football field down in that dip. One summer morning around 5am him and the farmer went out to fix a fence near the wooded area around the play area this side of A19. They heard a spine chilling scream twice and looked across to the other hill and could see a large tree being swung back and with such force they could hear the tree breaking / snapping. He said it had to be a very large strong animal to swing a large tree like we would swing a gate. It only ever happened that morning but does make me wonder all these years later if that could have been one of these things Then again they only seem to come from USA so probably not.

I really don’t know what all the fuss is about, an inert missile fails and the ignorant meeeeja have a collective orgasm and wheel out Rear Admiral ‘Binkey’ Bowbender RN who try’s to explain to the meeeja dummy’s there’s nowt to see here.
The journo’s speculate it could have attacked Moscow or some other speculative bullshit and started WW3 ….and wanting a head on a stick….overdone bollocks …what next ‘4.5 inch shell hits target and explodes’ as it’s supposed to?
Much ado about nothing.

That makes complete sense cheers Snowy

I know a lad called Arthur Benzole, a freelance castrator who comes from the Manor and he’s been contracting over in the States doing a birth control programme for the Yanks…he said they’re a bit harder to do than badgers but not as hard a foxes.

Any truth in the rumour that one of them was seen running away with a bag full of cash near the sight of D.B Cooper hijacking back in 1971 mr p?

Not sure they'd have much use of hard cash in the Upper Himalaya's Sussex, not much to spend it on unless you bumped in 'The Champions' after a plane crash there and were lucky enough to take the gorgeous Alexandra Bastedo out to lunch.

If hot air rises, why are the Himalya’s freeing
