Why even go there and try and single one out over the others, not helpful.

Not trying to single out Islam here, but some religions are just taken more seriously and adhered to more strictly than others. For example, Mormonism and Scientology are ridiculed to the point where they make theatre shows about them mercilessly ripping the tinkle out of them (book of Mormon). I think we all know the reaction would be far different if they took the tinkle out of another religion.

How many mental variations of Christianity are there? The problem is not one particular belief system, it’s that humans love extremes and religion permits that to extreme levels.

And religion is vague and some of it is open to interpretation. Some passages in certain holy books are outdated and have no place in the modern world.

I do agree that it’s impossible to rule out there being a GHod. We just don’t know.

I agree, it's impossible to rule out there being a duck on my head right now; I feel sure there isn't. I feel sure that I would be able to feel it up there moving about, but maybe it has been there for a while and I just got used to it. Maybe it is a duckling, just nestled down up there. I do feel fairly sure, but we just don't know.

Hotels in Tokyo are pricey but in general it’s so cheap here. If you’re not fussed about having convenience store lunches and things, you can eat for less than ¥2/3000 a day I think. Beers at a pub maybe about about ¥900 but you can find all you can eat and drink places, or convenience store beers for around ¥300

Currently touching 200yen to the pound...which is good for recent times.

The Yen Probably suffering as your still bobbing around at zero interest base rate.

Was in cambodia and really wanted to keep heading that way. Wanted to go vietnam then onwards. Aussie guy said you need a visa (them and americans do brits don't). Believed him. Went travel agency they wanted to charge me $120 for a quick visa. F that.

So went back to thailand, which they didn't like and came the other way. Gutted a bit. Philippines, japan were 2 places i wanted to go. Not been before.

Maybe later in the year.

Anyway, on happier “what happened today news” ( well technically earlier in the week news) I handed in my notice at work. I am retiring early. Plenty of notice - end of November. Then plan to travel while we still can. Can’t wait.

Whoop whoop
Fair play
Anyone who does that I think deserves a huge credit
And more so doing it with a West Ham fan 😀😀

Well we all have our crosses to bear! :)
But as I’ve said before, he hates Woolwich with a passion but he is of that era of Spam fans who actually don’t have hatred for Spurs, beyond “banter”.

And someone who wants to spend their time with you 😉
As you say.. everyone has issues
Fair dues though on retiring
I’m 47 and I’m now blowing money into my pension
The kids will drain things I know and my wife has had a few promotions but NHS money doesn’t mean much
So anyone who can make the call to do it early I think “bravo”

All religion is still prickly about certain stuff.
Look at the stushie with the da vinci code for example or life of Brian.

Proper venue that

If you crap beer and feet sticking to the floor proper venue then yes.
Group were great, and. I'm not a big the jam fan, but surprisingly the crowd were pretty flat, very unlike the barrowlands,usually it's bouncing.
And what is it about women wanting to record themselves on their phones.
And while I'm at it, these flowery craft beers that all taste the same, what's that about. Trying to get a decent pint of heavy outside is ridiculous.
