Unless the Chief Constable has promised more knife related arrests and dangerous knives removed from the streets, then anyone is fair game.Felix wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2024 12:13 amWhen i was a chef we would often take our knifes home. Not before stopping off for a beer or two before getting the bus home. I think if the police were to stop anyone having a legit reason to be carrying knifes they will not be to bothered unless you are acting like a cunt. Learned years ago, Dont act like a cunt to the police and they wont act like a cunt to you.

Re: In todays news...
The only reason to carry a Machete (assuming you're not on your way down a jungle trail) or Zombie knife is to try and look 'ard innit. Yoofs with their Mum's bread knife look a bit daft in comparison.
I suspect that line of reasoning is why they're getting banned?

Don't know about a bread knife, or looking 'and, but I have a cooks knife that would make a handy weapon.

Re: In todays news...
Bread knives are a bit rubbish for chopping and/or stabbing. They're serrated, you'd have to saw someone's arm off.

I've not had to use in my garden as the wife keeps it fairly tame, but relatives, the local scout hut etc etc where it's more bushes and saplings that need attention.Mr. Dazzle wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2024 10:00 pmIn your own garden, or just anywhere?MrLongbeard wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2024 8:12 pmI use mine for tidying up around the edges when's the overgrowth is too thick for a strimmerMr. Dazzle wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2024 7:46 pm The only reason to carry a Machete (assuming you're not on your way down a jungle trail) or Zombie knife is to try and look 'ard innit.

I brought a Kukri back from Nepal. That was a nasty fucker. Also great for ripping into weeds , bushes and small trees.
So sharp and couldn't blunt it.

2 killed along a street in Bristol on sunday eve, stabbed to death.

I go to the school on Illminster avenue weekly. Knowle West is a massive council estate shithole but that road has been getting worse and worse over the past few years. As soon as i heard it was in Knowle West on the news i said to myself "any money that was on Illminster Avenue" and it was!
Not sure if i shall be able to get to the school, maybe they will have some sort of access setup as i think the road is still closed.

Re: In todays news...
Good. Disposable vapes get on my tits as they can't be recycled, the users seem to think they make great adornments for pavements and verges, plus they fucking stink.
Probably shout the only thing Rishi has not make a complete fuck up of.

Re: In todays news...
I agree 1000% disposable vapes should have been banned before they go tout of hand. The industry has well and truly shot itself in the bollock
Except he is, I mean the points he's addressing already have laws associated with them, from underage sales, advertising and environmental aspects of battery collection, all with nice hefty penalties. But hey making something more illegal than it already is will be a big deterrent I'm sure.
And he can feck right off he he thinks he's going to stop me vaping nice fruity flavours.
And I'll be buggered if I'm paying an extra 25% on my stuff too
