My Haiku My pain My arse

I'll settle for no less than a nice cup of tea served by Jordan Sibley.

Japanesey Dirty knees'ey

Two minutes and one hour I gave the benefit of doubt Two minutes and one hour I now say Sibley OUT

It doesn't even rhyme, you been on the cider again?

Only if it's the Pompey v Gills one Colin. I always knew you were a closet Gills fan like my good self. Seriously though, I was going to suggest something along thise lines dependant on it preceding the first bid. Have to be fair, sorry. Maybe chat to the eventual winning bidder? Which one was it out of interest?

I just found a courier that will collect and deliver, anywhere mainland for under a tenner! Top man SaintBobby, I wasn't expecting that mate. BTW You'll love some of the older ones which I'll sell in seperate auctions. Oldest 1949, but my personal favourite is playing Man United away just after they came home with the European Cup (1968). They had Best, Law and Charlton amongst other household names in the squad and we thrashed them 1-4, all Saints goals scored by the legendary Ron Davies. Also to whet the apetites I've got an autographed Nick Holmes Testimonial cricket match programme. Plenty of UEFA cup games too (60's, 70's and 80's).

Im gonna write a very strongly worded poem to display that although disappoited I am not allowing this to alter my mood.

Would that be THIS morning or tomorrow morning, ie tomorrow?

I will try to mention this as and when I come across them but cannot guarantee finding them. To the ‘serious’ collector this may be of paramount importance, however I personally am of the opinion that it adds something more tangible (if that’s the right word).

Whilst I'm waiting. News tonight says Jordan Sibley Although he says it rather glibly Sitting waiting refreshing pages The waiting's over, it's seemed like ages Wheres the new shirt I want to know It's like waiting for the result of a talentless show People ITK with their little titbits At Tge end of the day, I dont give a ****. I thank you.

DO NOT READ UNTIL 23:23 Not that it directly effects me but I would like to to be tge first to say how outraged I am about the new pricing structure.

surpisingly, a couple of years ago we were all told that the term 'brainstorming' was no longer acceptible. I camt quite remember the reason, iirc it was something related to epilepsy. Its one of the few that imo people undertand to mean anything.

You got to have faith on the three B's. The three B's are your get out of jail cards.

I likes, FOOOMO and close the door behind you.

I got confused. Best I stay in on Saturday I think.

Thanks for pointing this out. I'll have to watch I guess. BRB

Even in people with severe learning disabilities, there is almost always a trigger, I suspect that in Wayne's case (still haven't watched it) the perpetrators knew this fact better than they realise. Ironically their insight and valuable knowledge of him on such a personal level could have been used to vastly improve his quality of life. Btw, out of doors community support programmes are coming to the fore now and we will hopefully see more and more disabled/disadvantaged people enjoying integrated activities. It may take a while but I hope to see less and less of these prison like institutions where abusers can hide.

Phil, maybe I should have said some private care homes? Either way, I'm not totally against a PPP arrangement but there needs tomb more focus on the 'partnership' in any future deal. Why not have the private company manage the public sector worker? Im not anti- managers (used to be, sadly) I see much more incompetence at service manager and above level than I do at the coal-face.

Ah, but instances of abuse or neglect in the public sector are less (I'm assuming) than in the private sector. Also, the public sector is naturally better placed to act and act quickly; there is not the focus on financing remedial measures in my experience. Anyway, this whistleblowing department is not the underlying problem, we are talking about the causes in this case and one of the causes is without doubt paying unsuited people low wages for a job that is undervalued. I'd say that an army of carers being paid a couple of quid less an hour than their ps equals saves a lot of money, the balance sheet is more important than the bedsheet. Whather we like it or not these situations show the clear problem in privatised care homes.
