I only post this because I need advice from the British B3tans.
I want to get a teasmade (well, two actually). I haven't found a webshop that'll ship them to the continent. There are a few used ones on ebay, but they charge a bloody fortune for shipping. Can anyone direct me to a shop in the UK that will ship a pair of them to Europe for a reasonable price?

Reporter goes to Pyongyang, runs 4 miles in unlit, unsigned, streets to Hotel of Doom, breaks in, takes photos (in the dark), saunters past heavily armed guard, runs 4 miles back, arrives at hotel fresh as a daisy, hides evidence from guide, and the publishes then photos in the Daily Heil.*
Oh wait, none of that happened (and they didn't even publish the alleged photos either).
Lying twunts. More errors listed here.
It's particularly annoying because I've been there and he most definitely hasn't.

This is the sort of shit that a 12-year-old would write if they had to come up with an adventure/spy story.
How did he get past those 3 guard posts before entering the hotel? Just ran past them? Haha, cunt.

If we reject people wholesale for any views we find distasteful we'd all find ourselves hating pretty much everyone.The people who jump up to shout about this stuff are the same sad shits who love to call Nelson Mandela a terrorist.
Fine that people can't love Patrick Moore as a political entity, but I don't see why that should stop us celebrating his contribution to his field, his humour, or the fact that he got three generations of people interested in astronomy. His work in that had way more impact on the world than his silly political opinions in a book that those people so offended by him at the moment have probably never read.

She made everyone's life more miserable than it already was, destroyed communities and pretty much all the problems we have today can be traced back to her right wing nutjob government of the 80's. So many similarities.

can anyone offer info on whether he was a little bit of a rotter? I know he fought in WW2 hence the German hatred, but the Enoch Powell association? Plus didn't he also have a go at immigrants in general, homosexuals, and women? I grew up, figuratively, with Gamesmaster and his work for astronomy is staggering, but was he a bit of a mental?

I think he appealed to the same people who like Boris Johnson. People who are willing to forgive a bit of racism if the person espousing it is wearing a monocle or has a funny voice.

you mean like in that film where they take a face off and put it a dfifferant face on then the face that was taken of gets stolen by the person who's face was taken and puts the stolen face on then confusses everyone by pretending to be some one he isnt but in reality he is doing mega drugs and sex and shit like that
i think it was called the man who had his face taken off , or something similarly catchy like that

We need more talented, enthusiastic presenters like him, that's for sure. Still think that his appearance on Room 101 was one of the best episodes of the at show ever.
