Northsea Ship on Fire Off Of Free Radio Coast Line!

27/7/2023

28 Comments

 
A Nice Clickbait title for this video as I know hundreds of regular visitors here are Anoraks who loved the North sea radio era and might just be attracted by that alone. That said it's an accurate description and it's all happening near Radio Waddenzee's old haunt. A couple of other videos included about the weather for good measure, just out of interest how are you coping with this years Global Warming summer weather in the UK & Holland? Oh no it's started raining again, sorry I have got to go and put up the sun parasol to stop the plants getting drowned for the third time today........

Good timing Mike!

Last night on BBC-TV the voice droned on about the "hottest temperatures on record", while I had just read an interesting feature that between 1930 and 1940 the hottest temperatures on record took place.

So, just as I have with statements made by and about Ronan O'Rahilly concerning the naming of 'Radio Caroline' "after Caroline Kennedy" (which it wasn't), I went to newspapers.com and other archives where I have subscriptions, and what do you think I found>

Newspaper after newspaper reported the giant heat waves between 1930 and 1940 which peaked in 1935. Those records have NOT been broken by the heat records from then until now. The heat wave of the 1930s remains unbroken!

Guess what else happened?

Unusual floods due to the baked ground which could not absorb the torrential rains that also occurred.

The BBC is run by liars dressed in Green.

But there is more!

As I read these papers (from across the USA, not just one locality!), I also read about something else in addition to heat and rain. I read about the "Dust Bowl' created by over-farming (because the farmers did not have modern fertilizers), and all of this took place during the "Great Depression"!

This immediately rang my library bell and I hurried off to get John Steinbeck's famous work "Of Mice and Men". They made movies about this period and more recently TV documentaries.

What is not being joined up is the lying BBC telling viewers about "unbroken heat records" and the lying BBC claiming to be 100 years old, and the lying Ronan O'Rahilly claiming that he once saw a picture on a place about a very young girl called Caroline ....

If idiots want to believe rubbish about "climate change", etc., and Ronan O'Rahilly, there is nothing I can do to stop them.

The evidence that they are being lied to all readily available, but as the old saying goes, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

Humans can be led to believe anything and if they don't verify what they are hearing or reading, then they deserve the consequences of being misled.

Just don't try to get me to believe bullshit, especially when it comes from the Bullshit Broadcasting Corporation.

The press has always been a useful source for historical research. Yes most newspapers support the narrative of their owners however going back decades there was much more attention to detail in the industry. Journalists were arguably better researches before the internet, and didn't just google stuff as many do today.

So don't be an idiot and call someone naive when you dear sir fit the bill on that one much better yourself

Well if you are not prepared to even say who you are and then insult others it's not censorship it's moderation to keep trolls like you out. You run others down, don't present anything of value yourself, just snide remarks as is demonstrated by your latest comment, and the sad pathetic one that didn't get through.

You need to try harder and maybe grow up a little?

Most or a lot of beef now comes from the Agentine, Brazil, South America calling you dancing in the street because of the fertilisers and pesticides that ruined the American farmland like Texas and all that other land they have got

South America is rainforest depleted and inuits uprooted beause by comparison it is lush pasture

You cant have it both ways you farm your land according to the climate and the soil

Meddling with nature does you no good in the long term

Why is a pack of bought in UK sandwiches always saying made with Thai chicken or EU beef and veg

Grief! ho much apart from awful battery farming does rearing a chicken in the UK cost/and they are probably suffering more in the BangKock Hilton anyway

The Al Hal thing is a complete fib because most of them sell wholsale to anyone and if the preferene is for AL Hal then that's how they do it

I have now desire to go into a Holo deck virtual reality experiment to see if it is better to die with a stun and a bolt or have my throat cut or like chickens ( how to you thing they are slaughtered? With laughter being dragged through baths of electricrified water. Being a bird they flap about and get shocked before being dispatched to your butcher of choice - wholesome smiling ruddy nice gent in the village high street or sulky bored stiff migrant in a retail park

None of it is right as such, but if you like to live in the good old days then watch more more episoded of the Good Life or Ronan and Dave Martins laugh in

Learn how the BBC is working to strengthen trust and transparency in online news

Published 8 December 2017

So BBC News has to explain to you without asking why their version of the news is the best. The above is a page on their website. Now we also have BBC Verify, a whole department designed to disprove and rubbish anything they don't like or agree with. If it's not the authorized mainstream media version of events then it's a conspiracy theory basically.

These serial liars are getting more and more nervous because the great unwashed sheep are beginning to wake up and see the lies. Youtube still censor, but Rumble is a growing alternative platform where you can hear the other side of the story. Like scientists who disagree with the narrative and provide a fuller picture. The revolution could well be televised, but the BBC wont be part of that revolution, they will be the victims!

Sir De Apple Hans Knot

I have researched the rabbiting on of the classic forum of Mervin and Micemen intensley and being a historian, I have cocluded that I have as much insight as Philomena Clunk in Little Britain

I thank you and hope you enjoy your summer holidays

Here in Groanagain the weather is always sunny summer and we walk in the footseteps of our ancesters and sometimes reason they had feet of clay

For no reason top academics and EU Medal of Honour winners like ourselves sincerely cannot fathom deep space thought out is why we still worship their footprints and devote what would otherwise be our most interestiing gardening lives worshiping them and digging over the pesticide poisoned unfertile land of the soil

Here in happy Holly land we reject solar cash banks and embrace windmills inhabited by mice and old men in cloggs

It is wonderfuel to catch up again with you all in my Summer Report and talking of the past I always remember the memorable Drifters Convention in London. I flash back at least I think to 1987 when I caught out the Rustling mouse and shut his trap for lying and stealing more old corn from the past to bake stale bread of books

Ha Ha

If Paul was English and not Yorshire batty the Spanish Inquisition would have set him on fire in Pudding Bowel Lane

Mervyn Hagger has spelt 'Brannigan' incorrectly. There were three 'Boom Booms', the first being the professor and college boxing champion. The second was a DJ, taking his name from the above. The third, to whom he refers, adopted the same name to align with existing jingles. None had any connection or reference to shots being fired at JFK. 'Boom Boom' has also been adopted by subsequent boxers such as Ray Mancini, and is reference to a 'left right' sequence of punches.

What is wrong with you?

The one 'n' for Boom Boom was intentional and you fell for it. So many of your stupid posts show that you read the text and then comment upon something that is totally meaningless, only you went to great lengths to explain with your feeble brain everything that no one wants to know about the Boom Booms.

You even failed to grasp the point the article makes plain, that the person using that name - the one who later died in an accident - had nothing to do with the murder of JFK apart from using the words boom boom to which we added a third boom.

The question is in the substance of the text about the murder of JFK. But you are reflecting the same brain dead mentality that gets the kind of response from me to throw you on to the trash heap of worthless lives.

I guess if you house catches fire you will start posting comments about the inside of the living room door being spared from the blaze while everything else became charcoal.

While Oliver Stone was working with others who wrote his scripts for his movie and later documentary, all believed that the evidence used against Lee Harvey Oswald was bogus (because the facts do not conclude that LHO shot anyone), their reasoning about the motive for the killing of JFK never made sense.

Their reason for the murder of JFK points to the war in Vietnam, and an oft-quoted statement attributed to JFK about him "smashing the CIA into a thousand pieces" (or words to that effect.)

But the trouble with that statement blaming the CIA for the disaster at the Bay of Pigs, is that it did not surface until 1966 in a newspaper. It is also unattributable because it goes to the hearsay of someone unnamed who claims that JFK said it.

That is a lie because his brother was running the continuing CIA war against Cuba!


What our investigation has revealed is that the Caroline story regarding the Mi Amigo, and the Pierson story regarding the Olga Patricia, are both tied to the CIA and the CIA.

Far from stopping the attacks on Cuba after the Bay of Pigs, Robert F. Kennedy who is tied to the absurd 1965 story about Caroline Kennedy and Radio Caroline, was running a huge faction of the CIA based in Miami.

That is where the Olga Patricia came from - a CIA operation - right behind the studios of WFUN where Ron O'Quinn once worked. (He physically threatened me in writing for pursuing this investigation!)

The murder of Lee Harvey Oswald is wrapped around the story of KLIF - the 'inspiration' for Radio London, which was run by a Mafia attorney in Chicago - not Philip Birch..

In other words, forget the daft Vietnam story and look at the story of offshore pirate radio!

Don Pierson became a second 'patsy' in a chain of events linking the murder of JFK to the start of Radio Nord in the Baltic. The 'target' of that station was not Sweden nor was it about pop music. There was a CIA master plan targeting the Baltic States - and we have that master plan. Furthermore, it has been available to anyone for years because it is online and we did not put it online!

The commencement of Radio Caroline is part and parcel of the story involving the murder of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963, and that is what we have been working on.

Gordon McLendon and Clint Murchison Jr with Robert Thompson are at core of this story which is all about offshore gas and oil in the North Sea and tied to the CIA all the way back to the overthrow of the government of Iran on behalf of the British Crown and the company that became British Petroleum.

Finding the evidence to prove what we are saying is true has been difficult to say the least, because until we found the evidence, we did not know that the story of Radio Caroline and the murder of John F. Kennedy are one and the same.

This is what makes our investigation so different and why Ronan O'Rahilly is such a waste of time.

The reason from sharing this knowledge here and now via Mike's forum is because it is still dangerous knowledge. But this is what we have been working on and why the title of our book is 'Dial 999 for Caroline'.

Radio Caroline is the story of high crime on an international scale surrounding the threat of a nuclear World War III.

We now have the core evidence but we are still looking for more while working on the manuscript.

I just read all of my typos because I wrote it on the fly and did not proof check the copy first. No doubt David Cotter will leap into action and list all of my many typographical errors for everyone to read in order to humble me into admitting a failure to proof check.

I promise to do a better job on the finished manuscript David because I am sure that a number of people who will read the proposed manuscript will point out the errors to me before the final version goes to the printer. Even then I'll bet some still slip through. I read the errors of others in books they have written.

By the way David, have you sent Malcolm Smith some emergency money to fix his current transmitter problem?

I think you should do that immediately if you want to remain one of his ordained members.

Presenter Chris Hughes has been told by the BBC a comment he made to Australian all-rounder Maitlan Brown during The Hundred was "not appropriate".

Hughes interviewed Brown, 26, pitchside during BBC Two's coverage of Southern Braves' win over Trent Rockets.

After Brown said she had been to see the Barbie movie with her Braves team-mates, Hughes replied: "You're a little Barbie yourself with your blue eyes."

Hughes, who first found fame on Love Island, added: "She's blushing now."

The comments were criticised on social media.

In a statement, a spokesperson for the BBC said: "We have spoken to Chris and explained that his comment was not appropriate."

Brown has played for the Australia A team and has received call-ups to the full Australia squad.

In addition to presenting coverage of The Hundred, Hughes has also worked on ITV's horse racing programmes. WATCHED BY SAD OLD MYSONOGIST MEN

The day the music died
3/8/2023 09:07:27 am

That was a song about an event that took place in 1959 about 2 insignificant singers and one major performer and song writer - Buddy Holly.

A current thread on the Garry Stevens board is still trying to tie it to August 14, 1967, but the UK did NOT ban music on that day, instead it caused the process of getting the BBC to play more pop music over its many landbased transmitters.

So what was August 14, 1967 all about?

It was about enforcing law written in the UK on the UK continental shelf to protect UK gas and oil interests.

Coincidentally it silenced Herbert and Garner Ted Armstrong with their Brexit messages for half an hour each day over most of the offshore stations.

Nothing that ANY dj ever said matched the daily barrage from the two Armstrong members, and what they said was a daily attack on the UK political and legal system.

So why do anoraks lie by claiming that there was a day when "the music died"?

The answer is that anoraks are merely cult-like idiots parroting what they are told to write and say, and knowing this, Malcolm Smith milks them for all they are worth to build his own business.

Then there are those sanctimonious lying disc jockeys who given the chance, will always work for a government licensed radio station.

This includes some of the worst offenders like Johnnie Walker.

But can the anoraks see through this nonsense spewed out by these djs?

No, they write rubbish for Garry Stevens and his side kick Dave someone on his own parrot board.

Posted by Peter Moore on 30/7/2023, 6:54:29, in reply to "Re: Wonderful Radio London 1206khz"

Strictly speaking

Radio Caroline has never provided a testing period.

The clock starts counting down from the moment that the operator specifies they want to be on air

Maybe there is a case for making the official launch 24/48 hours after the water is pumped out and the tender arrives with diesel fueling the wicked witch switch on

When Caroline Southern RSL199 happened off Frinton the first few days were a bugger up and the operators went in to hiding being unable to cope being exposed by by GPO and World in Action

But look, it is now a solar power long term AM RSL community of interest station from an excellent location

Aside from 2 forums with 40 Uberacks who will bitch about the music choice, range and audio quality, no bugger is going to read what these 40 forums and 2 bummers and benders are saying

The largest deep do doo cod ship in history just sails over their minority viewpoint of factual historical interest

Those taking part are enjoying it, that is good enough for my popular album station, enjoyed worldwide since man came down from the trees

Calling Malcolm's Bluff
5/8/2023 08:23:11 am

Malcolm has just posted a really, really, really silly bluff post for really, really, really stupid anoraks to believe. I will let Mike answer it since he knows the truth about what I (Mervyn) am doing, why I doing it, how long I have been doing it and how I am doing it.

First, here's Malcom's rant followed (hopefully) by an editorial comment from Mike since a) I have never met Mike, and b) as far as I know I am geographically far removed from Mike so we can't meet at a local pub and have a chat.
Posted by Peter Moore on 5/8/2023, 7:07:13, in reply to "Re: Time to be scrapped!"
HMM,

the quote you mention was surely from Mervyn, or John England or Caroline Brooks or his mythical 'trio ' of colleagues. It is not the first time he has accused me of multiple criminal actions and even my making this post will in due course come to his notice when he will spit out still more impotent fury.
As it happens I sent various examples of Mervyn's outpourings to a defamation lawyer and then had a meeting.
The advice was that in normal circumstances i.e. if dealing with a normal person, a ' Cease and
Desist ' letter would cure the problem.
But in this case the lawyer , being of the opinion that Mervyn is clearly deranged, suggested that a cease and desist would cause him to post even more outrageous accusations.
Then I woud be obliged to go to law causing me to spend money not all of which would be recovered when the case was found in my favour.
Additionally if damages were awarded there was doubt that Merv could pay.
Lastly, were his multiple postings doing me any actual damage that I could demonstrate, or were such readers as he has perfectly aware that he is a nut job, fruit loop and many bricks short of a load.
I detect no damage only frustration at being unfairly targeted. Maybe Merv's brain will explode soon.
