Bubble Burst Confirmed

[steven f]

Kelvin ,if you ever get to meet Trampenstien you will know where we are coming from , I have only known him for 5 or 6 years and took my first impressions from what was posted on here and I must say they were not wrong , he really is a knob















Laughing aside he is a top lad though and when the occasions demand the true genuine people rally together and put the banter on the back burner ,he can make a decent cupa as well (mind you he has plenty of time to practice ) .
However there are some real dickheads on here though and they and others know who they are . I didn't say anything about being Ginger either

wow glad we have met and you know i am bald

does the ginger one have a ginger coloured car

Steve

Your spoon has got even bigger of late

I think there should be a Yorkshire and Notts Christmas meet to spread the love of the RSE Forum

[Chesney]

i'm not ****ing ginger

[Frosticles]

i'm not ****ing ginger

Oh yes you are.

[Chesney]

That's fine, but honestly, sometimes when I come on here it just seems like a slanging match. Even after 4 years on here, I still find it hard to work out if it's just a bit of banter, or something nastier. My RS isn't on the road, so I'm unlikely to go along to any meets, so little chance to get to know anyone either. Just saying that it sometimes puts me off coming on here.

I know what your saying mate, i have been the subject of countless bad taste jokes, don't know why i bother really but I won't let them beat me.
They ridicule my car, my hair and my nose and its just uncalled for. I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT PACKING IN BUT AS I SAY I WON'T LET THEM WIN.

i'm not ****ing ginger

you even advertised it on your car

You forgot your tiny penis.

you even advertised it on your car

Pictures never lie.

[Groupcracer]

A lot of the "Jokes" are made about long standing (Nearly 10 years) Members and their cars. Not everyone will be privvy to these jokes I am afraid. Same in all walks of life.

Except for Frosty who is a nob...

[Groupcracer]

i'm not ****ing ginger

you look ginger in the photo of YUE in the picture thread....

you look REALLY ginger

[lee bishop]

it's all good honest banter, honest it is ..................... unless we're talking about Bishops

You SO want me

[Frosticles]

Except for Frosty who is a nob...

Penis.

[Andyc]

i'm not ****ing ginger

You foooooking are

[xpack]

I'm glad mines a proper one too father

[Groupcracer]

Penis.

yes it is a large one thanks for noticing. No I don't want to bum you...

[graham John]

you even advertised it on your car

here you go ches, you are in the elite 1% - 2 %

DNA project aims to count Scots redheads

• Redheaded sperm lacking demand
• Is gingerism as bad as racism?
• Neanderthals 'were flame-haired'

A project is being launched which aims to find out how many people in Scotland carry the red hair gene.
Researchers from the ScotlandsDNA project also hope to discover why Scotland appears to have the most red-headed people in the world.
Only about 1-2% of the world's population has red hair, but in Scotland the figure is much higher at around 13% or about 650,000 people.
The information will be used to make a "ginger" map of the British Isles.
Researchers at the ScotlandsDNA project believe the figure for Scottish red hair gene carriers may be much higher, and could be as many as 1.6m.
A person who doesn't have red hair can still produce red haired children if their partner is a carrier of a gene.
Red hair appears in people with two copies of a recessive gene on chromosome 16 which causes a mutation in the MC1R protein and can often skip generations.
Contrary to popular belief, the gene is not dying out and will most likely continue for many generations to come.
The ScotlandsDNA project is launching a new test which costs £25 and will tell participants whether or not they're a carrier of a red haired gene
It will also inform them of which of three types of the gene they have, and possibly provide some insight into why Scotland is the most red-headed nation on earth.
Ginger kids
Managing director of ScotlandsDNA, Alastair Moffat is keen to map the number of possible carriers of the gene in Scotland and attempt to explain why we have so many Scots red-heads.
"It's not necessarily the people who have red hair that interest us at ScotlandsDNA, what we want to do is discover who carries the red hair gene variant," Mr Moffat told BBC Scotland.
"I think that's a much larger number. For example, in my own family, I have three kids and two of them have red hair - and while I haven't got much hair, it's certainly not red, and neither has my wife.
"In either side of our families, there was no red hair - and I thought, where has this come from? That was what got me interested.
"We're looking at people who have already had their DNA tested by Scotland's DNA, which is simple for us to do.
"But they have to be tested first, and then we can tell them if they're carriers of the red-head variant."
Red hair DNA
All physical colouring is a mixture of two pigments; black melanin and red/yellow melanin, but in red-heads a particular receptor in the pathway for pigmentation, MC1R, is disrupted and black melanin is suppressed while red/yellow melanin is allowed to be made.
The result is red hair, light skin colour, often freckles and a greater sensitivity to sunlight.
The three types of red-head gene are:

• Cysteine-red (or R151C) is carried by 10% of British people
• Tryptophan-red (or R160W) is carried by 9% of British people
• Histidine-red (or D294H) is carried by 2.5% of British people

There are other, much rarer variants, but for a child to have red hair, both parents must be carriers and there is a 25% chance that their offspring will have it, which is known as "recessive inheritance".
Mr Moffat believes the origins of the gene are more an adaptation to Scotland's poor weather.
Mr Moffat added: "I think it's to do with sunshine - we all need vitamin D from sunshine, but Scotland is cloudy, we have an Atlantic climate and we need light skin to get as much vitamin D from the Sun as possible."
