Weather forecast!! 
After having shite weather most of the weekend, this evening looked clear and bright, so I checked the forecast and that said bugger all chance of any rain tonight, so got the bike out and a few miles from home it starts raining. The rain wasn't so bad, but the thing that really pissed me off was the local farmers around here all seem to have been out muck spreading this weekend, and the roads I chose to ride were literally covered in shit! Thanks to the rain (that wasn't supposed to be) this was now wet shit, which made it slippy (thank you traction control), and like a magnet to both my bike and me... both covered in it!

It’s a bizarre bun fight that absorbs very few but sucks in plenty.I mainly agree HS.
But a lot of it isn't the LGBTQ's themselves.
It's caused by the leftie pricks that like to fight their corner for them. Whether they want it fighting for them, or not!
The thing is, if you separate out LGBTQI you get LGB who share relatively common ground and TQI who are somewhat different. The former are maybe 1.8% of the population if self declared census returns are to be believed…. maybe a smidgen higher if you count gay men sadly (for them and their deceived wives) living a heterosexual lie. However, the TQI bit is something like 1/10th of 1% but you’d never know it from the hullabaloo of others parading their virtue. They also include people who by common consent have essentially psychiatric rather than physical conditions.
When all this personal sh1t hits the political fan you end up with bizarre stooshies where gay people fall out because transitioning men impinge on female rights. In Scottish politics the issues of the moment are:
Where’s Peter, the missing money and when did he last see his ‘wife’ (which one)?
Why does Patrick Harvie hate Joanna Cherry?
Needless to say there’s minimal heterosexual involvement. It beggars belief given the scale and seriousness of other issues on the table that affect everyone rather than identity politics.

Might even save those boat shoes though I’m not sure about the MANLY legs!
Apparently he has such a strong following. There have been calls for YouTube to close down his channel.
Typical eh!
Whilst our leftie friends can write folk like Alex off as right wing, fringe lunatics. Their YouTube channels can stay. However, once it becomes impossible to hide the fact that his views are echoed by the average man/woman in the street.
All of a sudden the channel has to go!

Just realised why your feet made me strangely nostalgic. Boat shoes! It used to be my habit to buy a pair of Dexter’s boat shoes whenever I ventured across the Pond. They were made in Maine, as I recall, and incomparably better than Salvadorean Timberlands or CCP (Cheap Chinese Pumps). Sadly they were middle market and went bust about 2001 after many British shoe makers had suffered a similar fate.
I Ronnie of I Ronnies, Jez resides in the residual heart of quality footwear where, if you can afford them, profit is still to be made. I bet he wears Tricker’s loafers!
We need to more consciously support domestic production.
I have a pair of Church's brogues.
When I got them in 1995, they had an rrp of over £400
However, a mates wife (sadly no longer alive
) worked in the quality control dept. Shoes would get rejected for the most ridiculous reasons i.e. marks that could easily be picked up on the first day they were worn.Staff could purchase those "rejects" for £35.
I couldn't find a single minuscule mark on the pair she got me.
Her reply to my confusion was..."Don't forget that I decide what gets rejected!
"...I still have them & they still look/feel great
Here's what looks like the same shoes at todays prices

They are true old school quality & made to last (pun intended)
I've had mine for 26yrs but they only get worn for weddings, funerals & on holiday if the hotel restaurant has a dress code?
However, at £750 a pair they ain't cheap!
