To me, 'conservative' means tosser who wants to make the planet sadder than this face.



Even without politics entering into it, the Conservative Party have always been, well, wankers. They've been pushing for legalising hunting with hounds for years, which had been made illegal here in the UK back in 2004, and many of them have ties with the Bullingdon Club, a cricket club that keeps a respectable front while having a scummy reputation, with members getting privileges with no costs at all, getting drunk and rowdy in restaurants while putting normal customers off, and some took drugs.

Then there's Iain Duncan Smith, a Conservative MP who was appointed the head of the Department of Work and Pensions. He was hated for labelling the poor people as scroungers - work centres treat the unemployed like scum at the best of times - while he claimed £39 for a breakfast. While living on his wife's estate and taking £1.5 million from the taxpayer. Luckily he's no longer in the DWP but I wouldn't be surprised if another one crawled out from the woodwork.

Fox hunting with horses and dogs was banned as it was deemed a cruel sport. There are regular attempts to get the Law repealed - that was one of the carrots dangled by Theresa May when she went for the election earlier in the year, thinking it would mobilise the Huntin' and Shootin' Brigade in her favour.

Wait, by dog hunting, do you mean they use a dog to kill the prey instead of a gun?

And, holy shit, my kid just rolled over. I thought we had another month before she did that. Now I need to go to buy buy baby and get those big foamy floor puzzle pieces tomorrow. And figure out different sleeping arrangements, because she is currently using one of those in-bed nests...

I wish she would hit her 'sleep through the night' milestone, but noooooooo.
And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known

Yes, the dogs chase the foxes across the countryside and corner them before tearing them apart. The main Hunters follow on horseback and some others follow on foot. Google Foxhunting images to get an idea as to what it was like.


Won't be long now till you are chasing your little one around, trying to keep her out of harm's way!

Geez, I thought by dog hunting you meant using a dog to go fetch already dead things. Hound hunting sounds awful.

And, I hope not. We aren't even ready for her to start rolling as the earliest estimated age for rolling is 3 months and we figured she would be average, which is about 4 months. She is about 2 and a half months.

They do use dogs to go fetch dead things as well - grouse, pheasant etc which are shot during the shooting season.


Did she roll from her tummy to her back, or her back to her tummy - when she can do both she will disappear under the sofa or table!

Or she told me she did and you now look more naive than ever.

If people chat to you in game, irl, other websites you have no right sharing there conversations with the world - especially knowing you both use the same forum/s - and who knows if you are speaking the truth or out of jealousy or what?? That was a very low, low thing you did truthful or not!!

I hope you apologize to Krista.
