    The first one.

    Fúck farmers:mad:

    You don't have a god given right to be a farmer - if you can't make a living at it, shut the fúck up and do something else.

    Of course townies and city slickers never complain, remember all the crying you lot had about having to pay for water?

    Yep, the drought had no part to play in it whatsoever.

    They can't even interpret a weather forecast and take steps to protect their livelihoods.

    Weather forecast is accurate for 4 days after that it’s crystal ball gazing, so what’s your point?

    Surely four days is enough time to learn the most basic rain dance? ;)

    My point is, it doesn't matter the fúck what the weather does, there'll be a hand out needed to deal with it - it's either too hot or too cold, too wet or too dry - never just right!

    What other industry anywhere in the world whines as much?

    What she said was "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche"

    Brioche!!!

    No wonder they had her head off!

    They'd have been alright if it had been cake. Who wouldn't been down with that?

    ah but brioche is far far better than cake.... LOVE it. shocking bad taste these pheasants.. bird brains. And as you know your theory is just that and not authenticated comprehensively at all.
