    and of course because it was the Daily Mail he had to make it political with the lefties, though the majority of comments i read last night were rather negative towards Him/IT, with just a few comments saying it was the bestest Article they had ever read in the history of Articles almost on par with Articles by the Donald

    He uses ChatGPT to write this I thought.

    Just waffle from someone removed from reality.

    Talking about jellyfish reminds me of a time I heard a lad shout to his dad he'd been stung by a jellyfish on a beach in Majorca.

    His dad responded by saying "just pit a doakin leaf oan it".

    Have a guess what football top the dad was wearing.
    Celtic, definitely

    This is the last post I'm going to make on this subject but I thought the views of the people affected by the tragedy on the Greek boat, both relatives of the dead and Pakistani Journalists, sums this up perfectly


    “This is a double standard … they could have saved many of the people if they wanted, or at least they could have recovered the bodies.”

    It’s not the fault of five men that hundreds of people died off Greek shores. But it is the fault of a system where the class disparities are so huge,” ... “When people point that out, it is misunderstood as hatred.”
    (A Pakistani Journalist, who wished to remain anonymous)
    ...
    “It’s sad that a submarine carrying five rich people was given much more consideration, coverage and importance than the migrants on the Greek boat,” he said. “Millions of dollars must have been spent to rescue the rich, but for the poor, there’s no such opportunity. Even the Pakistani government was not paying any heed to the issue.” (a relative of one of the dead Pakistani Migrants)

    They have pulled up some wreckage and presumed human remains inside.

    Should be able to DNA test and give whoever it is a proper funeral.

    When some were discussing the grim reality of instant decompression at that depth it was suggested there would be nothing left to DNA test.

    Yeah that was my understanding too. Let’s hope there are some answers from it all.

    Probably, but only if you count "dying of old age while on a cruise liner" as one of the 'hundred ways the sea can kill you'.

    That was my thinking also, but they definitely said some remains were recovered.

    Interesting documentary released on Netflix today. The Scottish former director comes out of it well. Rush had the same egotistical mind as trump and others have. When you have been warned that many times by experts but keep putting people’s lives at risk you are a complete …..

    Yes watched it last night. Very interesting insight. I didn’t fully appreciate the extent to which it was a certainty there would be a catastrophic failure. The man’s ego and arrogance was off the scale. And his attitude towards those who dared to challenge him was almost on a Putin-like level.

    He reminded me of Scott of the Antartic. Foolhardy to point of being an idiot.
