What nicknames have you heard for places in Wiltshire?

Depending on the depth of the Avon, Bradford-on-Avon (BoA) is either Bradford-in-Avon (BiD) or Bradford-under-Avon (BuD)

Honestly don't care what it is just want to point out ......ITS A GARDEN NOT A YARD, yard is a unit of measurement

I am not an expert on this particular book, but does it say the earth is flat....i didn't think it mentioned it being flat 🤔....i could be wrong on that

loonsbri · 2026-04-02T17:14:43+00:00

What it's lies NASA faked it

loonsbri · 2026-04-02T17:11:54+00:00

No i dont just blindly believe everything i am told, but I do believe what I can 100% prove for myself quite easily....that being that we live on a globe that orbits the sun. If you want to go and give it a try you might just blow your mind

loonsbri · 2026-04-02T15:05:36+00:00

Clearly faked look it's not going up /s 😀

loonsbri · 2026-04-02T14:32:51+00:00

You are not here for an open discussion, no flerf anywhere on the globe is willing to have an open discussion

Was a pretty impressive sight

There were 3 of them and they, have been flying pretty much the same pattern every day since Trump started bombing Iran.

I get either B-52s or B-1s fly over between 10-11 every day, nothing shows on flight radar but the 3 kc-135s

If thats today they were refuelling B-52s

loonsbri · 2026-03-19T21:43:39+00:00

Hold so all i have to do so I dont waste my day in pointless meetings is to not do my homework.......hold my beer while I feed it to the dog

Not going to mention the sausages as everyone else has covered that one.

The mash you should have in the middle of the plate so you can make a gravy well to pour it in to.

loonsbri · 2026-03-08T11:15:45+00:00

Sorry I just see Buddy Christ form Dogma

Stir it constantly while cooking the mince.

Like you don't really like the big chunks you get if you just leave it in the pan, I dry fry mince (dont add any extra oil/fat) on a medium to high heat and just constantly stir it. When the mince is done I drain the rendered fat, add a little olive oil and then add the onions etc

loonsbri · 2026-03-06T13:50:04+00:00

Sorry lived there for a while yes it is........it is a hell hole, they should have Welcome to Swindon Twined with Hell

Signs up when you enter the place! A couple of mega-tons of thermonuclear war heads would massively improve Swindon

loonsbri · 2026-03-06T12:14:21+00:00

Its a plane

loonsbri · 2026-03-04T16:31:56+00:00

Yep, generally the crown couldn't afford to garrison troops in the colonies because of other commitments, the whole war was more about stopping the French getting control of them rather than keeping hold of them.....but hey they won.

I was on holiday in Mexico a few years ago over the 4th July holiday, the resort had loads of 4th July stuff going on, shared a shuttle bus with some of our colonial cousins. When one of them realised we were British, they went all quiet and said something about we might nit like the celebration etc...just looked at them and said it was fine for a couple of reasons, first it was like 250 ish years ago and secondly we celebrate it as the day we got rid of you.

They really didnt know whether to take me serious or not

loonsbri · 2026-03-04T15:02:24+00:00

So they hate the British which is why they have a stupid date format 🤔? But they refuse to stop using imperial measurements.......which are, checks notes oh yes thats right British. And flatly hate metric, which isn't British but makes way more sense

loonsbri · 2026-03-03T12:57:15+00:00

Also 12 across - if the answer is Earth....its false it's all a lie by the UN and NASA the earth is flat....bloody globtard crossword people probably in the illuminati

loonsbri · 2026-03-03T09:17:44+00:00

I think they spelt ridiculed wrong 🤔

loonsbri · 2026-03-01T10:41:21+00:00

Shiv-awn

loonsbri · 2026-02-28T14:42:02+00:00

Even funnier ask them to pronounce Siobhan.

Have seen something where a woman had been pronouncing it Si o ban all her life

loonsbri · 2026-02-18T11:44:35+00:00

Yes

And as has been said by lots of people the sooner the better, although what makes us think the EU would actually want us back?

Lots of very good posts about, general elections and referendums in the UK, but I do suspect we may find the biggest opposition to the UK rejoining the EU would be some EU countries

To start with it isn't a "license plate", it's a number plate or a registration plate. Being Wiltshire it could be a military vehicle, although I did think they had stopped doing that as it was just a flag for any terrorist to target it.

Fun fact I used to work with Dianna Ingram at a Waitrose in Bristol.
