Just talk about how impressive you are and print anything you've ever been sent (as you say people have praised you) to back your claim up. Mention areas you want to improve in and learn more about, not in a negative way, but positively i.e. you're not saying you're bad, but that you want to be even better or learn new skills. As for your perception on the new guy, you're probably right - you will be more "lazy" compared to him as he's new and wants to impress and you've settled in and have probably started to plod without realising it. Up your game! Get in 10 minutes earlier, be a little more proactive and use your experience of the company/role to your advantage - that's where you have more strength over the new boy. If that fails, smack him

?

I assume that is just a pure vision and an end goal. If they are to move towards that end goal then it'll definitely be completed in baby steps, small bits at a time. Redevelop the front and road, buy the land next to the ground, develop on that ground, link the two buildings, expand the stadium if there is demand, wrap the stuff around it, etc etc etc. I think it's great to have a vision like that, but it'll certainly be protracted over many years.

********, not good enough, move on, simple as that.

Hah! Know exactly who you mean, sad cases.

Seriously, do you do any work? You are paid by the taxpayer, yet always posting on here??

On the contrary, most eCommerce companies DO like the insistance from Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera that you need to upgrade. That's why in the stats graph we see all those browsers as one block with IE6, 7, 8 and 9 as separate bloody lines as numpties haven't upgraded and Microsoft haven't "insisted"

Stats show IE9 is the most used (already), followed by FF (all), Chrome, IE8, Safari, Opera and then IE7 and IE6 (!!). At work, I use a Macbook Air with Safari and Chrome (Chrome is my fav) and I also run a Microsoft VM to run legacy web-based apps in IE and have IE9, Chrome, Firefox and Opera on there. Chrome is easily the best browser for every day use. Firefox the best for developers where you can add in Firebug etc., for easy debugging.

Exactly - I think those of us commenting are mid-30s upwards. Turkish and I are both mid-30s, VFTT similar and I would assume others who have commented are older than 30-odd as well. The Weekend Offender stuff isn't for me, but I can understand why a 16/17 year old might want to wear it. The fact you can buy it in USC isn't a good thing either - the whole idea behind "good clobber" is the opposite to standard high street really! I mean at the moment, I love Pretty Green stuff and bought a bit from their store this weekend, however, I can see that if the brand grows huge, they open many more stores, it starts getting everywhere, that the appeal would die off - for me anyway!

I quite like some of the Norse Projects stuff, never ordered any - what is their fit like? Always hard to tell on a brand you've never worn. Agree also; I've never liked that Weekend Offender stuff, even just for the name!! Bought these at the weekend - http://www.size.co.uk/product/adidas-originals-sl-72/78159/?cm_vc=Product1 - loving their re-issues at the moment.

oooo, leather pants ...

Stopped in the new UK Blauer store in Beak Street last week - not impressed, all comes over a bit, naff, being based on US Police/Fireman wear.

Surprised you haven't been! Definitely get over there. It does my head in for longer than 4 or 5 days (like London), but worth going over, do the tourist stuff, do some bus tours, bit of shopping (although it isn't THAT cheap in my opinion), enjoy some good bars and places to eat etc. If you're booking a Flight + Hotel together, Expedia will be one of the cheapest to build your own package with some good savings for booking the two together. And yes, don't forget your ESTA.

Allow me to quantify ... it is hilariously written, it's like it's been written by a jumped-up, very self-righteous uni student heading for a third class degree at some **** poor ex-Poly.

That is hilarious!

Sod off and live in France, Rebecca.

Ah well ... I was going to say that "self-righteous pr*cks" start with a 'T' .........

Surprised by Guthrie! Would have thought he would have a part to play! However, happy to be corrected the "experts" ... you know who you are, self-righteous pr*cks.

I've just got some of those as well - look brilliant!

What do you DO on a phone to drain the battery so much?? My iPhone lasts for 3 days without charge, that includes phonecalls and browsing the internet while sat on the train. One tip I got (form Essruu actually) was to turn location services off - that seems to work!

Not one knows for sure except a few people within Apple. Apple is a very secretive place and believe or not, a lot of people who work for Apple don't even know - I have a friend in a senior position who doesn't know and even if he did, he wouldn't tell me - it's not the "Apple way" to blab. It's like MI5 in there - odd, but very interesting working environment!

Ditto.

Well, you're not far off!

Nothing like this should ever be illegal, but, 24 weeks is far too long in the pregnancy cycle and any normal, compos mentis person will know after 8 weeks, or even 12 weeks - 24 weeks is obscenely late to make the call! I can not believe there are people out there who go "actually, I don't want this baby now" two thirds of the way in to their pregnancy!!? Mind you, judging by the state of a lot of people I see, I am getting more and more appalled by the general public in this country, so I can see people like that, sadly.
