Comments:We will see a different Tyson Fury this time. -- More disciplined, will have trained better, be at his best weight, staying away from Prednisone, and taking nothing for granted. He will probably win by a KO. -- Usyk is OK, but up against someone whose pride has taken a beating. That will not happen a second time.

Comments:Hi Whisky Nose! How you doin'? Who started calling you that? You've got a super nose - just a little bit red, that's all. And you sniff a bit. Vestan Pance informed me that processed meats like bacon and sausages is detrimental to health and can increase the risk of colectoral cancer, Type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. And that bacon is high in salt and fat which can drive up blood pressure and elevate cholestoral levels, leading to heart problems. And that sausages contain high levels of salt and fat, which can cause chronic problems when consumed regularly. And both sausages and bacon have been linked to high blood pressure, heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bowel disease and stomach cancer. Since turning 80 I have had cancer and heart disease. I've cut back on sausages and bacon - they taste good though. I have been taking resveratrol life extension tablets.

If you go about it the right way Steve, I think you might raise that eighty-two by 10 or 20 years. Science says, of course it can be done easily - most definitely.

Forgotten quite a lot about it now, but a year or so later outside Platt Memorial Hall, I sorta got my rocks off being told about it by Tom Marmont. I'm probably too old to enjoy reading what might have happened now, 65 years or so later, even if it happened to be packed with erotic content. But you never know. Maybe the former accomplished, highly-skilled fitter at a local quarry (who was arguably the most famous resident ever in Western Road), would submit some juicy lines? Thinking about the possibility of it happening, I can't wait. How much money do you think it would take to entice someone as famous as him. To help get the ball rolling, I should think that the selling of buttons featuring him would be highly profitable.

Wrotham resident Paul was older than myself, and I remember him (just!) attending BG Primary School. I think he passed his 11-plus exam. I commenced attending Wrotham Secondary School during the 1952-53 school year - in the former POW Camp southeast building (in Miss Bailey's 2a class). Several vaguely remember, and hearing about, Italian and German prisoners working at local farms. It was said the Italians would sit around smoking, and the Germans, many in their teens, were hard working and quite scared. PS. Coincidence! Al Fuller mentioned buttons. His dad Alf had some of those prisoners working under his supervision at a local farm. I think he gave up with the Italians! For a while, I was also a lowly farm worker!

Women young and old still swoon over some film actors who are in their 70s, and a variety of inches less than 5 feet 9 tall tall. Your additional height does not hurt at all. I think you could wear specially tailored shirts, with all the buttons done up to under your chin level, and still look strikingly handsome.

Continuing "....they can get off my back, and make someone else 10% as famous as me." The spokesperson for the commenters said, "We have a few clever tricks up our sleeves, and do not intend to give up easily. On the other hand, he's pretty well run out of warnings.

Comments:George 'Goony' Maynard would have loved to have Eric 'Slowhand' Clapton in his Platt Brickyard Blues Band. George was quite romantic, and regularly would be heard humming Eric's 'Wonderful Tonight'. Recently, 'Absurd' Eric experienced severe side effects for weeks after his first and particularly his 2nd shot of AstraZeneca's Covid vaccine. "My hands and feet were either frozen, numb, or burning, and pretty much useless for two weeks, I feared I would never play again," he wrote in a letter posted to Telegram, "but the propaganda said the vaccine was safe for everyone." Like our Modest Mike, Eric was another famous person born in 1945.

As they each had half of the majority of the popular support, they were declared joint-champions - Stephen with his "elevener", and Robin with his "sevener". If it had been several years later than 1950, some might have wondered if their conkers had been injected with epoxy."

Comments:"This Sporting Life" --- "The 1950 Borough Green Primary School Conker Championship, has been hailed as an everlasting memory. It was contested during playtimes over a period of one and a half weeks. The two eventual winners were Stephen Russell and Robin Hodges. They had selected special trees into which they hurtled sticks to bring down their nuts. Stephen's were close to where his father market-gardened, by Basted House - and Robin's were just off of a lane at the other side of Oldbury, in the direction of Stone Street (he lived in Ightham). Prior to the tournament commencing, Robin and Stephen cycled to Meopham to practice there together. They said it was to breathe in the air of John Tradescant the Younger's birthplace - he had been responsible for the introduction of the horse chestnut tree to our Isles in 1633. Robin and Stephen were serious about their sport. There was controversy that Stephen's conkers were pickled with a mixture of malt, apple cider and Balsamic vinegars

Comments:The Government Local Boundary Commission is requiring updates to polling ward boundaries to ensure population growth doesn't affect the average number of voters in each constituency/ward. Very laudable and democratic. But the local conservative party executive have instructed TMBC to reduce councilor numbers from 53 to 46, ostensibly to save money. But at £5k per councillor, that saves at most £50k, small change compared to TMBC's £60M budget. By judiciously adjusting ward boundaries they can ensure that Independent and Lib Dem wards suffer the most cuts, and they hope to reduce BGLM to a single seat, and put adjacent Indy parishes into Conservative stronghold wards. It will also release Tory financial resources and candidates to blanket remaining Opposition wards.

Comments:The last circumstance I truism Gail Dines speak, at a convention in Boston, she moved the audience to tears with her characterization of the problems caused nearby obscenity, and provoked sniggering with her intelligent observations upon pornographers themselves. Activists in the audience were newly inspired, and men at the result – sundry of whom had never viewed pornography as a problem first – queued up afterwards to guarantee their support. The mise en scene highlighted Dines's explosive charisma and the factually that, since the death of Andrea Dworkin, she has risen to that most difficult and spellbinding of public roles: the community's cardinal anti-pornography campaigner.

But if they do they release some of us to stand in other wards, like Wrotham, where Martin Coffin only beat Scott by a whisker last time, and Robin will be suffering as the architect of the Urbaser waste collection fiasco. We understand now that Urbaser, rather than start doing what they were contracted to do, are now trying to wriggle out of much of it.

The fact is if leaves and mud etc gets into the drains it will cause a blockage thus floods and we are the rate payers who pay for this service. totally irresponsible of those in charge of our services But wait and see them give them self's a pay rise in the very near future. that's all folks .

Contagious behaviour may be driving this, poor people living near rich people may pick up a lot of their habits. Some of these habits - say, pretentious vocabulary - aren't likely to protect one's health. Others - working out - will definitely have a positive impact. Indeed, it has apparently been shown that poor people living near Tugger Tom exercise more, smoke less, and are less likely to suffer from obesity. I'm approaching obesity, my neighbours are poor and I don't think they would fancy a diet of West Malling baby spinach, Wrotham cheese and Beirut peacock.

Those defaced Leybourne election posters all had faces of people pasted on them who were more popular, more well known, better looking, more famous, funnier, and with better personalities than him. For a few days later his trousers had what appeared to be glue stick adhesive on them. And sniffing around I'm almost positive he did that. It would be the action of a typical Tory, too!

Actresses, mainly from the Smoke would wear e.g., 1 piece swimming costumes, sleeveless blouses with brassiere straps slipping from their shoulders, and be seen adjusting their nylon stockings and suspenders. All so very titillating. We offered contracts to local young men, Peter Broadmore and George Chirnside, but unfortunately they declined. In the Borough Green area, their families would have been a little ashamed. Nowadays, they would be feted lavishly as world class actors/celebrities.

Comments:You might think that people search for jokes more often when they are sad. Many of history's greatest thinkers have claimed that we turn to humour as a release from pain. Humour has long been thought of as a way to cope with the frustrations, the pain, the inevitable disappointments of life. As Charlie Chaplin put it, "Laughter is the tonic, the relief, the surcease from pain." --- However, searches for jokes are lowest on Mondays, the day when people report they are most unhappy. They are lowest on cloudy and rainy days. And they plummet after a major tragedy, such as when two bombs killed three and injured hundreds during the 2013 Boston Marathon. People are actually more likely to seek out jokes when things are going well in life than when they aren't.

Or we let gays marry but not own homes - come out against gay mortgage." He said, "With both sides so set - one being all for gay marriage, and the other side being completely against it - how about we just let lesbians marry? It's a woman's thing anyway." He continued, "When people talk about homosexuality being 'not natural' and 'an abomination', they're not talking about women - they're talking about the men." His opinion gradually used to change.

Comments:Forgetting about money. Tugger Tom is still opposed to Brexit, but still puts his political career before anything else. Many believe the posh man-child, is deadheatedly tugging in favour of each option. Will he split himself in two over this - or with ever rising heat under his collar, spontaneously combust? Whoever thought Tugger would become so interesting?

Malling to BG, and has been seen at hedgerows there picking blackberries. Blackberries get their colour from anthocyanins, this phytonutrient may help delay age-related cognitive decline. The blackberries are a good dessert after the free Wrotham cheese and W. Malling baby spinach. In case he has to start grinning, his hankey is at the ready to wipe the blackberry stains from his teeth.

Often naughty Ross, always escaped punishment by correctly answering Miss Griffin's difficult questions. Arguably again, Miss Griffin's favourite girl pupil that year was Heather Crowhurst from Wrotham. Heather later became 'Reception Class' teacher [previously, Infant's teacher?] at BGPS... A few years later, Roger Pettet and another boy were taken by Miss Griffin to see 'Hans Christian Andersen' (Danny Kaye), at the Rex Cinema. Roger lived in 'The Fort' - the next house to Heather in Wrotham... Do any other former pupils remember Miss Griffin? You might have been in her class when you took the 11-plus exam.

Hugs and nooky can ease the pain of a [genuine] headache. Like chocolate, hugs boost levels of serotonin, along with the hormones dopamine and oxytocin, all of which feed into our general sense of wellbeing. Nooky does this too but on a much grander scale.

The receptionist there during 1965 informed me that Mr. Raymond couldn't read or write. During the late sixties, David Bance had the Gent's section at the Raymond's, Manchester House, BG High St., location. Do you know if he was related to Peter Bance, Mike?

It has a brass channel, with gold trim encrusted with diamonds and the most ergonomically designed handle the World has ever seen. He so much, more than fully deserves it.

Comments:While occasionally chummy with lower classes, does Tom Tugendhat with the tweaks to his diminishing upper lip; grins/frowns and gait adjustment; give you the impression he is trying to look like an East Ashford, Willesborough window cleaner, from near where he grew up in the sleepy village of Sellindge? He has been known to hang around the Chatham area to take in the Kentish form of Cockney; so here and there we might hear him slipping in that accent and vocabulary. So doing, he seems to be thinking he can tap into securing the support of disillusioned Labourites. I've heard that his big admirer, fellow-toff Jacob Rees-Mogg, is considering a makeover copying Tom's adeptness. Are we about to witness the Frog and Mogg Show?

Comments:Thanks for your and Dave's efforts in reinstating the 2007 to August 2018 comments. Amongst others from since that time, I've often heard mention of comments involving Tory twosome - the 'future' Prime Minister of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the up and coming BGPC Boy Wonder; Famous Steve Russell of course (a statue of him in the works?); and the wit and wisdom of DotDave, and Supermike. How soon might we be able to expect same comments back? I'm not pushing you! Thanks again, take care!

Comments:Marvellous Mike. From July 24, 2016. "Offending adverts now removed, I must admit it is many years since I had a spam infection like that - let's hope the perp gets the message." What is a perp? It used to be the sound made when someone in Miss Riley's BGPS infant's class broke wind. Perping...well perper extraordinaire, the famous Steve Russell will tell you all about it. Talented Steve was so good at it.
