Smoggy Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I found the following tweet on Keith and I so hope this is true "Keith Flint kept a swearbox above the fire in the pub he used to own (The Leather Bottle in Pleshey Essex). Whenever he put logs and kindling in and someone piped up with the obvious joke, he'd point to it and charge them a quid" JackDoff and marron 2 Link to comment

Cynth Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Bob Hawke was a leader before political correctness. He was bold and said what he thought. He stood up for what he believed in. A true icon of Australia. sonar, Wanderboy, Smoggy and 3 others 6 Link to comment

Burztur Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Personally, I don't care what your preferred poison is. What annoys me the most is the wooden politically correct responses for fear of putting certain demographics out of joint. alexd, Smoggy, Midfielder and 2 others 5 Link to comment
