With Waitrose as a sponsor I'd expect the pies at the Mad-jet ski stadium to be very good. Venison and port, short crust, red squirrel satay, lobster mayo sarnies and the like.

Ah 2018, the year that kept on kicking back. I heard today that my late father's cousin died on Christmas Day - it's OK, we weren't close, I'd only met him a handful of times in my life.
However, Brian Tyler may have been known to some of the inhabitants of this board - he was a historic racing car dealer in South Africa. He wrote a book on the history of the LDS Formula cars. Quite a bloke all in all. |

Yes my parents were close to him. I recall some very boozy sessions when we met.

Gets my vote for the least intelligent act of the year (OK, it happened on 27/12/18) so far....
Man attempts to steal policeman's bicycle from outside a police station, in full view of a CCTC camera... https://www.msn.com/en-gb/video/news...cid=spartandhp |

Soccer is a foreign land to me, it should be banned, but if I can give advice on motorsport photography, drop me a pm. I am not talking about photographic skills. Happy retirement, it can take quite a few years before the mind fully accepts the concept. Well it did me. |

Mrs 97 has recently completed a fatal accident investigation into a similar incident in the UK. She is a Human Factors specialist who does fatal accident investigations for a living. I wont say too much as the Coroners Inquiry has not taken place yet, but lets just say that in engineering we usually have 2 x safety interlocks / tag outs to try to prevent accidents when working on safety criticsl systems. The Zoo industry doesnt. Human beings make often make illogical decisions and take short cuts; we often ignore our training and procedures and are then surprised when something goes wrong. Its a nassive shame that the Lion died because of human failings. Sadly this is the third similar incident that i am aware of in last 12 months worldwide, and probably wont be the last. As for football, i am delighted to be a Wolves fan at the moment after mostly disappointment for the majority of the last 45-50!years! |

Zoo's are living on borrowed time surely.
I'd rather take a tour to watch these big animals mauling fat yanks out hunting. Far more entertaining and better for the environment. |

I have bern to Shamwari game park in South Africa a couple of times. 68000 acres and the animals live and feed as they should, whilst being protected from poachers. Far better. The Born Free foundation is based there too. And re-homes big cats that have had to be removed from zoos or from a life as exotic pets or from circuses. Sadly they usually have to be kept in a separate large area of the park to be looked after as they cannot usually look after themselves after the life they have been treated to. Shamwari is recommended. |

Very satisfying watching that.The faces changing from being bloomimg smug to the instant terror of a relative who they just shot coming towards them (I'm talking about one involving a lion).I believe them people don't deserve to live tbh.
