  1. A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward. Conservatives are not necessarily stupid, but most stupid people are conservatives. Conservatives define themselves in terms of what they oppose. I'd love to lay claim to the above, but honesty prevents me from so doing
  2. CAPITALISM - A great idea if you've got loads of money (often at other people's expense) and don't give a stuff about those who haven't.
  3. Or drinking club :smt102
  4. :smt015
  5. And also isn't one of the reasons we're still in recession to do with the weakness of the pound against the dollar and the euro?
  6. Having said that, I TORE a hamstring once, doing the splits when I wasn't properly warmed up (silly me). I heard it tear - sounded like material being ripped :shock: I freeze sprayed my leg and carried on dancing. I can still do the splits
  7. You can count me in too
  8. And haven't the Tories 'invited' an ex-military man to be their military advisor. Or was he elected?
  9. I think calling her a tart is very offensive.
  10. But we don't VOTE on who those cabinet members will be - that's my point! OK we can guess that George Fopbourne will be the new chancellor (gawd 'elp us) but more than that we can't really guess, can we? We voted for our MEPs - they've chosen the President and Foreign Minister. Same thing IMO.
  11. What - like the choice you exercise about who should be Home Secretary or Chancellor in this country, you mean?
  12. But surely to play in the transfer market you have to have money :smt102
  13. has cancer, apparently http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8363705.stm Poor guy. (Mods I thought this was pertinent to the Saints page, given his non-interest in us but please move to an appropriate venue if necessary).
  14. As long as it works, I don't care what I drive. Is my Mazda 3 a 'girl's' car? It's probably the best value for money, reliable car I've ever had. As StL says above, if you're stuck in traffic most of your driving life (as I seem to be) what's the point of anything flash? When I want a 'girl racer' rush, I drive Mr TF's Subaru
  15. The bank, no doubt. But maybe it staved off 'the evil day' a tad longer. On reflection............ Oh
  16. FYI http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7894840.stm
  17. Never mind - at least we got some money for him
  18. Oh, you tease
  19. Just finished watching the new Star Trek movie on DVD that Amazon sent us 2 days ahead of its official release
  20. Mr TF played it last night through our new HD TV. I HATE warfare games but I admit it looked good (for what it was). Bloody noisy though
  21. It's so easy to make basic mistakes, isn't it?
  22. Brilliant, isn't it
  23. The one in Amsterdam is pretty good though But it's a long way to go for breakfast!
  24. Are any prospective take-overers still up there with it?
