I can see them stalling for time, get propaganda machine in full swing, second vote similar result to Lisbon Treaty

There will be no second vote. Theresa May will be next PM and has already vowed to stand by the ref result.

David Cameron also said during the campaign he would invoke Article 50 immediately after the election..... I dont know much about May but politicians are all the same say one thing and do the opp if it suits an agenda.

Reading down through Moysiders great post, coincidentally at present we have bother a newborn heifer calf (week old tomorrow) and its back legs. It was quite large calf from Charolais bull & Belgian blue cow. The cow was very heavy before calving and we were watching her tight as we had an operation with another cow just the week before.
After not progressing in the field we got her into the shed were we got the jack, front legs and head out and proceeded. The jacking didn't seem any more strenuous than previous successful calving episodes were the jack was needed.
Everything seemed normal enough, left them a few hours and went back to check on the new arrival and noticed the calf hadnt got up and sucked. As it was getting late we got cow milked and got colostrum into the calf.
The calf wasnt seemingly able to "lock out" the back hinches when it stood and it couldnt stand un aided for more than a few seconds. We took it to Vet, he gave it few jabs but he wasnt sure either what exactly was wrong possibly trapped nerve, muscle problem, hurt at calving, he maintained you just have to preserver for a few weeks to see if it comes right.

We are currently few times a day having to run the cow up the crush and calf suckles from its knees under the cow. It nearly a week and we notice calf has got slighting stronger on legs but not much possibly stand 20secs/& walk few steps before buckling.

It is a real clinker of a calf and good health expect the back legs. Just wondering does anyone else have experience to this kind of thing coming right or pardon the pun are we flogging a dead horse??

Ive finished season 3 of House of Cards. It's ok just in my opinion. I haven't really been gripped by it or dying to watch to watch the next episode like I have been with other series. Struggling to find a series to really get into at the minute. Just started Deadwood so I will see how I get on with that.

Same very disappointed in the third series! Enjoying Better Call Saul, it has the potential to surpass Breaking Bad!

Hi just looking some thoughts/advice of people regarding the jabs/vaccines for wee ones. (I believe they with 20+ vaccines within a year & a half)

I have wee boy 8 weeks old and got the letter from doctor to take him for his first jabs next week. I am fairly hesitant for some reason, after doing a bit of research and I am just wondering are they all necessary?? End of the day you are pumping your little one with possibly unnecessary viruses as well as "God knows" what else.

Has any on here chosen not to vaccinate?

Really enjoyed Season 2 of Houses of Cards (expect the Meechum scene - u know it when you see it :-\ ) Kevin Spacey is a brilliant actor.

Just started True Detective  seems very good as well!

Building control in the case of new builds trigger the rates man.

If there's work still to be done you can get a discount for a while.

Would I be right in saying if you done an extension to your home (and increased floor area of house), upon completion of Building control final cert your rates would be re calculated & increased?

Also would anyone know does your house insurance cover a building (home) that does not have a final building control cert??

trillick didnt field against clonoe, but surely thats their own tough luck?
pathetic stuff if that game was fixed today.

If you were at the game or talking to anyone at the game you would know it wasnt a "fixed" game #slabber
