I got mugged by six dwarves last night.
Not happy.

I'm on the Adam Ant diet
Don't chew ever, Don't chew ever
 
(one for the oldies there)

Another take on both the Leicester and Cardiff tragedies is one that will probably also get me some grief, so I don't mean this with any disrespect to the deceased, but is there not a point an element of these deaths was so needless, yet driven by wealth and status and entitlement
Leicester owner flies helicopter from Leicester to London, when there is a regular train service that takes about an hour and if he wants privacy could have gone by car. But he's rich enough to own a helicopter so forget that. Granted any form of transport is not safe, but I suspect helicopter is considerably less safe than train or car.
And with Sala it's just bonkers that he tried to get from France to Cardiff by some kind of light aircraft?! What was so urgent that he couldn't just get the Ryanair? He's moving football club, not escaping wartime occupied France.
Just so sad that we all strive for as much money as possible like it solves every problem, but it can't buy your life ?

Oh there's definitely something in that.
I would put it something like: If you are properly wealthy, then you can regain some of that childlike confidence and sense of adventure. When I was climbing trees & jumping out of haybarns on the farm as a kid, I wasn't worrying about not being able to pay the mortgage if I got injured and couldn't work.

It's OK chap - I didn't really do a very good job of expressing what I meant. Something about the more wealth you amass the more some people seem to ignore risk. But death comes to us all - it doesn't care how much money we have.
Anyway - I'll stick to the Jokes thread ?

Nope. Can't construct a reply that wouldn't be construed as political, so here's a cat emoji ? and consider yourself put right!
