passports

In this world which is growing smaller. Do you think that passports are a waste of time and money.
Because all you need to do is claim asylum and you can get into any country you want?

You're right mate,the majority of these so called asyllum seekers (terrorists) hike all across europe and into our once proud land without a passport
They should only issue passport's to the french, then we could ban them from entering the u.k

its not that simple its better to have some system in place than nothing. what country where you planning on claiming asylum in geoff you should try ireland sometome you dont need a passport but you do need photo id so passport probably best. do we really want national idenity cards

all ya need to get into the UK is a car park ticket
laundry ticket
bus ticket
speeding ticket
cinema ticket.
if you are a wanted terrorist, then the gates are open for you here in the UK (human rights ya see)cant have someone tortured or put to death for blowing up women and children,dear me no...so unbritish.
anyone for croquet chaps??

there isnt a system in place here in the UK where you can deport anyone???you watch this latest cockroach thats just been issued with deportation order against him...he will appeal, and appeal again and again. joe idiot will pick the tab up.its all spin mates, we are sunk. unlike the europeans,no messing there, offend, and you are marched to the airport. they have the right to appeal,but they have to do it from the country of origin. so someone else picks the tab up. whats wrong with that???

the UK politics is all, and i mean all spin.pure b******t, nothing less than that.
i tell ya.....theres a pot boiling, and we are going to get burned.

abide with me
fast falls the even tide.:(]

There are places where they put people who talk to themselves, all comfy & padded...No pain

if it aint a-la-carte???where ya bin mucker/

Moochin' billy..

ya need a shave a-la-carte mi lad.

Nay! I ain't a billy-goat. Speak for yerself....Oh! Forgot, you generally do & do & do etc. "ad infinitum"

Art I couldn't have put it better myself,but then again I'm probably too polite and diplomatic to proffer such remarks.The only reason I can put forward for this latest episode is that everyone else was too busy doing other than posting on the forum,otherwise there was a party and they forgot to invite Billy.Aww!!
Mind you I've been on other sites where up to seven consecutive postings were by the same person and I even went as far as suggesting the similar sentiments.
Anyway Art,try to be a little more tolerant after all cyberspace can be a very lonely place especially for someone in their dotage.

Did you not mean "Goatage" Roy?

Art I just couldn't bring myself to be so rude,but the way some go on about the "Nanny State",it could in some way be appropiate.

?????
get a rocking chair la-carte, and some knitting needles, helps keep the mind tuned. as for the other guy, him down there, he probably spends most of his time chasing sheep.or as i suspect, wondering whats happened to his beloved aussie team???it just aint happening for them these days.

got me a painting job at freckelton today. the old tub needs spruceing up after the winter gloom.the gulls have had a birthday from the c*** thats everywhere.

You are looking very horny in that photo art, not that I'm that way inclined owd lad
I've been going over to Ireland for the last 7 years in the truck and on the bike and have never been asked for photo ID andie9469
Hello geoffcott how you doing ?

truckerdave, Just havin pity on a bearded Billy, who has a habit o' talkin' to himself. Thowt it may be company for him....Poor lad.

Painting eh,Billy? You weren't apprenticed to Leonardo de Vinci by any chance,I believe he was pretty handy with paint and brush,did one of your favourite places,the Cistern Chapel wasn't it?
I think you are getting your countries mixed up Billy,it's the Kiwis who have an affinity with sheep chasing,and as for the cricket I will reserve my comments until the tournament begins.
Dave,probably in Ireland they don't need a photo to identify you because they can see it's you. Here in Oz they are contemplating introducing what they call a "Smart" card,not an identity card,oh no,definitely not,that might impinge on personal privacy but it will have personal information encoded on it,including a biometric photograph,which can be accessed only by those who need to know,mind you we've had photos on our driving licences for a number years.I've got nothing to be concerned about but I do wish they would tell the truth and get on with it.
I still have my identity card from the '40s and I think it only became unnecessary in the mid '50s.

its already been forged??the new unbreachable passport??a couple of newspaper guys got all the info they needed to nick the identity of a woman from her postal delivery.
this is the age of technology, aint nothing can be called fool proof. we have guys doing opps in hospitals, guys working with the police forensic teams ect ect ect, all there diplomas and such, they created on their putes.

ps a-la-carte...blow it out your a******e.are you alone in this world???so much time for sarcasm and detrimental remarks(unwarranted).you should get yourself a little puppy dog,or maybe a canary?if ya got the money(ya know..cash?)buy a boat and take a trip out into the liv bay. some nice fishing out there for you. great for releasing pent up frustrations, that you appear to be suffering from. go for it...be reborn mush.

there now.

Hooked.

Hello andie, never been asked for photo ID, even when the troubles where rife in the north, that could have been due to driving a northern irish registered truck (OBZ)
I still travel over on bike to see friend's around Kildare and Naas

I think we need to book our ringside seat's for when billy and art get the boxing gloves on

I'm a bit like thi' dad Dave.Did you ever argue wi' him?

Art,what a question to ask.You must bear in mind that in those days one never risked the dire consequences of arguing with one's father.

anytime dave. lets make it interesting and a private affair. my wager is a grand on myself. my eldest has a barn were it could take place. a select audience of course. whadya say mush???to bad the kaola chorley cake isnt up here,the stakes could be doubled. two v myself.would relish it.

J McGurrin, AKA Piddlin' Pete.

Never seen that mon sober, so it must have bin a hard match

truckerdave my brother lives in naas and my dad is in carlow

Hello art,
When I was younger I never argued wi my Dad, but when we used to have a pint or two in the keepers we used to have the odd argument, friendly one's though, even though I never won any against my Dad, I really miss him, he was my best mate and best man at my wedding [ R.I.P Dad]
Hello andie, as I said before, I have friend's in Naas,Kildare, and Kilcullin, and sometimes go over to Carlow at easter to a m/cycle rally where we all meet up for a few beer's
My Grandad originated from Charlestown Co.Mayo

Youre right Dave. He was a grand lad, I knew him from schooldays, (nobody argued wi' him then). I also knew your grandma & grandad, they did a spell a SLG club, can't recall the exact dates, about 70's/80's. Summat like that, Tom was his name, wasn't it? Not quite sure of G/ma's name

Hello art, yeh my Grandad was Tommy, and my Nan was Bessy, they did a spell at the conscription club (Park rd) aswell as Lower groung L.C,
Then after my Grandad passed on my Nan had Beech Hill L.C, my Dad was president for quite a while at Beech hill L.C
Happy days

That was it, Bessie, I can picture her now. cheers. My mother, Betty was behind the bar mannin' the pumps at the same time at SLG. Long gone now
BTW, it's Subscription, not "get some in" conscription club

why when we,re in the euro we need a passport to visit other euro countries?
illegals don,t need passports.
i wonder if its to with making money

Think about it it Aspey,if they had passports they would not be regarded as illegals,not unless their passports were later shown to be forged.
And talking of such documents,I would have to renew mine not to mention finding my airfare,before I could oblige Billy in his challenge to a pugilistic contest alongside my new "Sparring" partner.By the way Billy,what's the purse?
Anyway owd lad,why so grumpy over the past few days,missing out on your oats or are the piles playing up? Get well soon Billy.
