    Well there's plenty of people visit Switzerland that charges road tax for visitors.

    Yep, been there a few times, Its a *motorway toll* and therefore voluntary. A sound move when you
    are at the crossroads of Europe.

    Never bought one yet, dont need to, too busy enjoying one of the worlds best kept path networks, a
    little too best kept I think - but I can live with it.

    No winging Swiss, upset at sharing their good fortune though.

    I always thought you were a nasty piece of work, but welcome to the next level of scumdom.

    That is just the sort of pig ignorant insult from that has forced several members of my family to
    have their names changed, including myself. (Welsh not Gaelic, but the foul racist principle remains
    the same.)

    Had hoped that that had died out. Maybe it will soon, here's hoping.

    I do.

    Looks like you're quite happy to let the vast majority pay for your recreation which is unfair for
    others who have to pay for theirs.

    [censored] I'd better ask back for all the money I've paid out for the police, NHS, railways subsidy etc
    on the grounds I've never used them.

    Grow up and get another braincell - yours must be everso lonely. You clearly missed my answer.

    Yeah - you must be one of the stupid prats who goes overseas and insists on speaking English

    Not necessarily. It depends how much the language was used and spoken in day to day living. Gaelic
    here is virtually dead - and should be buried - except for perhaps a few enthusiasts.

    It's much clearer that those who say they care for the countryside don't want to contribute towards
    its increaseing upkeep due to access for all.

    It's funded out of general taxation. Mind you I expect paying taxes is a foreign subject to you.

    It's not for nothing that Scotland has been called 'The last third world /communist country

  14. Christ, will you just [censored]? Haven't you realised that you're about as welcome as a hatful of
    [censored]? At first your posts were mildly amusing, but then they got a bit tedious... then you span
    off on racist tangents, tried to dig your way out of various holes, and, quite frankly, I started
    feeling embarrassed for you.

    Didn't you think of disappearing back up your own [censored] when it got to the stage where you resorted
    to posts such as 'You're thick!'? Let's hope that get's used on the website of your quotes over at
    www.trochos.supanet.com/sayings.htm

    Cheerio, dipshit! See you on the hills (don't worry, I'll have my hill-walking day-license with me)!

  17. You seem to make a lot of friends !??? Has it ever occurred to you that, whilst you are entitled to
    your views (as are we all) you appear to be in a very small minority. This means that your views are
    probably not entitled to be given much weight. Certainly not as much as your ego would demand. If
    you feel you ever need any psychological help I can probably point you in the right direction. You
    need to feel the need first though.

    I have now done my bit to try and help you and will go away again and concentrate on my walking
    interests.

  19. Is there a mediator for this site. Is there a cost for the site. Perhaps you could send half of the

    Perhaps the world will then be a quieter place and we can get back to the subject of the site.
