Just waiting David for some of his now EX mates spilling the beans, some have already hinted they will do so, and it would be good for one of Megs ex friends to write a few words on her past.

We now know the types where all the drugs go, think we would emigrate if we knew all the facts relative to drug addiction.

Trouble being those who could do something about it are probably part of it.

Let's be honest lads, the only angels are in heaven.

But there are limits.

Harry is a junkie, hooked good and proper by a schemer of gigantic proportions.

Would not believe he is drug free.

He looks and acts like a typical junkie.

Just hope he comes to his senses before it is too late.

The idiotic claim about killing is beyond belief.

Regards.

To be honest I have mixed feelings over the whole affair.

If he is suffering from drug addiction and from serving in the forces, no laughing matter seeing people killed choose what the circumstances are, enough to affect one's whole perception on life.

Admits he took drugs prior to going in the army, and not a one off according to those in the know and who are thinking of spilling the beans on his antics.

Events indicate he may have been sent home when the probability was he was taking drugs whist in the army and a drug test was imminent.

Just wish he had retired gracefully from public life and sought medical help for his obvious problems.

Regards.

no doubt harry has seen action, i doubt very much if he was in danger of loosing his life etc, but he has actually seen some sort of action which is more than charles or william have .......i think even the pervert andrew has seen more military action too .

re the drugs, i think its common knowledge tony blair, boris johnson and numerous other prime ministers, politicians and mp`s indulged in drugs and depravity while at the posh boarding schools ........

strange how the royals relationship with jimmy savile was quickly brushed under the carpet when it was exposed he was a wrung un.......conveniently after he had died, and andrews friendship with epstien another pervert, it seems the royals tend to befriend quiet a lot of depraved individuals yet deny knowing about what they are.

dead men tell no tales luckily .

At least we are learning where all the drug addicts are.

Tis a crying shame when people get hooked on drugs, in particular youngsters used as carriers to fund their addiction.

Along with those who use them to attempt to solve mental issues and worries.

Have sympathetic feelings for those.

But those in positions whose jobs may affect the whole nation and use them for laughs and highs and lows should be put behind bars, and not the ones selling booze.


As for our new King.

He is only a Figure Head.

He cannot change anything.

The worry should be how many junkies and unhealthy individuals are MPs.

Would rather have Charles than the likes of Russia, China, North Korea Iran, Afganistan or many other similar countries.

Regards.

Had three brothers, only had one altercation with my eldest, he was first born,

7 years older than me, upset him over triviality, good job I could run faster than him.

Otherwise no problems of any significance.

Too busy with pigeons and animals etc;

Think the poorer the family the more respect they have for each other.

My dad was a miner, I had two years down the mine, my eldest brother was a Chief Production Engineer for the NCB, having been put through full education paid for by the NCB, my sister was a teacher at Scarborough college, my young brother was a Post Office Engineer, my youngest brother a Gardener.

I just enjoyed myself, last 30 odd years running the finances of a building company.

Life is what you make it and how you perceive it.

Regards.

Life is what you make of the opportunities that arise.

Wish I could say the same David.

Could well have done without the months before the passing of my first wife and the following 14 years before I met my' present wife.

One thing for certain having good reliable friends is a blessing in times of depression etc;

But you have to deal with what life throws at you.

There is always millions dealing with far from ideal situations mainly caused by human stupidity.

Think real good friends are a blessing.
to
Had a few good friends in our sport and I mean a FEW, several gone to the loft in the sky., but never socialised with them outside the sport.

But outside the sport had 5 very close friends, all with different jobs, socialised all the time, any problems that arose for one that another could solve was dealt with and no mention of money.

Chris had a bookies shop, he died of a heart attack, still keep in touch with his wife Anne and his sons.

John died of a decease that affected most of his relatives, met his wife originally but they parted.

Brian has had treatment for prostrate' cancer and is not his old self.

Tony has cancer, was in hospice but lost touch.

Mick the youngest is an electrician but does not have to work.

Now my wife and my self' have numerous friends in the dancing world over the past 25 years.

Regards.














































Tony is being treated for cancer and lost touch with him, he had a metal fabricating business.

Mick, a electrician is the fittest and youngest, has enough money not to work but I am in no condition to keep up with him.

Would not have got through my problems losing my wife etc; without them.

Kept me going when at rock bottom.

Those without good loyal friends miss out.

friends come and go I suppose but I'm lucky in the way that i'm still true mates with 3 lads I grew up with from being before school age and a good few that came along before my teenage years. Then there's fancier friends of 30 years plus . By friends I mean people I spend time with every month, in some cases every week and can't remember any fall outs or crossed words. Been through life, births, deaths and marriages, as they say count my blessings when it comes to friends.

Cannot remember ever falling out with friends, differences of opinion, yes.

If I do not mention Ron my snooker pal and he knows that will be the first fall out.

When I retired we played snooker for 3 hours every Monday and latterly Friday.

That for over 21 years, missed only a couple of weeks in that time.

Only stopped because of covid.

He is three years older than me and was an artist for a publishing company.

Not enjoying the best of health but still plodding on, but his wife, also a friend is ill and needs his care.

I feel those with no close friends miss out on a lot.

A problem shared.

Regards.
