Didn`t the club bring out a red and white quarted shirt to mark the end of the Dell? Seem to remember that that one was quite well recieved.

Band Of Brothers - British miniseries version, ideas?
miserableoldgit replied to Crab Lungs's topic in The Lounge
BoB is a staggeringly good series (as I am sure that the new one will be) and I agree that we are overdue a good re-telling of the British side of things, which of course BoB virtually misses completely. As for glorifying war, I don`t think that in anyway it does that. For all of the "anti-war" rhetoric around nowadays , war is , sadly, a fact of life. There have been wars since man first pulled himself out of the swamp and there always will be. I think that from a British standpoint, war stories say as much about the make-up of our national character as anything else. That we stood virtually alone for 2 years against Hitler, and similarly against Napoleon says a lot about the stubborness, beligerance, tolerance and durabilty in the people of these islands. Like everyone else I would love to see an end to all wars but it`s all about how you conduct yourselves when they happen that really counts. -
Quite right!

Mark Fry on Solent this morning, when asked if he would do at Poopey what he did at Saints, said that he believed that administration advisors were already in place at FP should they decide to go down that route.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/8497911.stm The family of the man killed by a German locum are demanding an English language compency test for foreign doctors working in the NHS. Are they being "racist"? -

I did it a few years ago and thouroughly enjoyed it. I was there for a week and we did three cases. Provided you don`t get a boring case that drags on and on, it is a good experience, but do take it seriously.

Yes. This is another one. I am also sad with the amount of Americanisms that creep in. "Can I get?", "I'm good",and "Listen up" for example. I also find it funny and annoying in equal measures to hear young white kids talking with black ghetto/hip-hop accents. I don`t know about the Americans winning "The War on Terror" but they are doing really well in "The War Against the English Language!"

In the 60`s, my dad used to say to me, about any bands that I liked, (including those that you mention), "Lets see where they are in 5 years time". Sadly for him, his judgement was flawed because they, or their music are still very much around. Who would have thought that The Rolling Stones, for example, would still be selling out large venues after more than 40 years? Will the same happen to N-Dubz and the like?? I may be wrong, but I know what my guess is.

Don`t worry. You WILL grow out of it.

Yes, but don`t forget that ML was a Panzer tank driver, or a member of the SS or a concentration camp guard or something according to some Skate fans.

That`s really done it now!! The bastard!!!

It would depend on the make up of your present floor, and what type of heating that you want. You can buy an electrical "mesh" to lay under your floor tiles, and is then connected to you power supply. http://www.discountfloorheating.co.uk/cablemat_price.asp
