Nope, but have hooked up with random birds on the internets for one-nighters. From AdultFriendFinder and the like. I also hear that a lot of the models on sites like ModelMayhem do extras, forget the name of the site (as I'm a happily married man now) but there's one with reviews and price lists etc. So fairly easy to find a bird who's been in say Razzle and spend the night with them apparently. Loads of swinger/dogging sites about, things have definitely changed since I was a nipper. I would say if you are a young lad without much experience its very easy to get experienced in a wide variety of pursuits without paying prostitutes these days /wishes he could rewind 20 years

Super Rickie Lambert, so much more to come from him, and a talisman for the entire team Shilts close second with KK third if only because he didn't stay long

Got to feel sorry for the bestest having travelled all that way. Long time to be cooped up in the back of a taxi only to have to turn round and come straight back.

More heavy rain, potential for it to be off? Seem to recall the only postponement we've ever had at St Marys was for a waterlogged pitch

Good basic phone that. Been out about 18 months though so getting a bit long in the tooth. But perfectly adequate for most uses

Lots of kids prefer Blackberries for the BBM messenger (free messaging service, cuts down on contract costs). Might be worth checking out if his mates have BBs. As to the link, Huawei are a Chinese "white label" manufacturer - virtually all the 3G mobile broadband dongles are made by them, as are some of the BT internet routers. They're where HTC was 4 years ago. Good quality stuff, good bang for buck, but completely uncool. Concerns from govt agencies that they've got dodgy security to enable the Chinese to hack our comms. In the cool stakes a Samsung Galaxy is probably next best to an iPhone and the software is very simple to use (the missus had a Galaxy Ace and could cope with it from never having used a smartphone before).

I see one of the kids killed was from Eastleigh, only moved out there a couple of years ago. Dad an accountant for IBM, guess he was working at Hursley or North Harbour.

Billy Sharp is celebrating the birth of a son

I see he scored today "That's for you son" -
Because they're muppets and don't know how to drive. Although it can be easier to sneak on from the LHL when coming from Romsey because a proportion of that lane joins the M27 Eastbound and so that queue moves faster.
-
Also consider the logical actions of someone in the RHL coming off the M27 - he's only either going to down the M271 and so can stick in the RHL until he joins it, or going back down the M27 because he's gone the wrong way. So no need to get in the LHL, assuming he has knowledge of the road he is exiting on to. FWIW, I watch out for Romsey traffic joining the left lane if I am in the right because chances are that they're going to join the M27 westbound and cut across my lane to do it.
-
Onus is on the car making the lane change to ensure that his lane is free. So on the M27 Eastbound heading down the M271 then both lanes are valid - particularly if you are indicating right as you pass the Romsey turning. Car in the right-hand lane can see a car in the left-hand lane intending to take the 3rd exit and so should give way - the lane he wishes to move in to isn't clear. You must also pay attention to signals given by other road users. Bear in mind as well that the person in the left hand lane can't see you. The only likely result in an accident is a claim against the driver in right hand lane (which is why when Essru is in road-rage mode on the Charlotte Place roundabout he makes sure he's ahead of the car in front )
-
From an insurance claim standpoint the painted arrows are only a guide - if you have an accident with someone in those circumstances its likely to end up a 50/50 despite common sense suggesting you're in the right. Particularly if they're ahead of you and turn across you as Highway Code says you must be prepared to stop. My daily drive to work includes the Ower M27 junction, J3, and the end of the M271. See regular near misses on all of those because of people not following the markings, workmate is currently being surprised by the fact he's losing his excess on a 50/50 on J3 in exactly the circumstances you mention (but coming from the other way).

Yep, by a country mile. Close to being the best year of my adult life.

Have to say Dortmund looks chuffin awesome:

Olympics like many others, made particularly special because my cousin won a medal in the rowing Also in the sporting world the crazy time in June/July when we did stuff I never thought I'd see - Wiggo winning the TdF, Murray turning out not to be Scottish, and of course Saints promotion For me though the moment of the year was going to the Paralympics - and being sat about 10 feet from Oscar Pistorious. Just built on the awesome sight on the first Saturday of the Paralympic athletics when Richard Whitehead stormed through to win the 200m. If you've not seen it, seek it out, and marvel at what the human body can do when pushed. Undoubtedly changed my world view forever with regard to disability and sport.

Crazy record given football is a very different game to when Muller played. Muller played when high scoring games were common so certainly had more opportunities. Would also suggest he was playing in a weaker league but other than the top two La Liga isn't what it used to be. What price seeing him at Man City next year (or Chelsea if Pep goes there
-
Also been in 42 since game 2 at St Mary's and it is definitely different - less banter, same songs, not much innovation, all feels a bit tired and formulaic. Worse this season because of our form but even towards the end of last season it was feeling a bit jaded. Not helped by the three lads behind me who are prototype Upper East Stand moaners. Thinking of moving, seriously tempted by the hospitality seating if only so my old man can go when i can't cos of work.

On the plus side, at least she'll finally get boobs. Chances of her doing a Demi?

Have been sickened by the NFL response to this, they seem to be eulogising their player and the woman and child are hardly getting a mention. Big picture tributes on the site to him, he's a murderer and you would assume a perpetrator of domestic violence FFS. I wonder what the response over here would be if one of our players did similar. I'd like to think we wouldn't play the day after at the very least.

Had mine a few days now, pretty impressed. Pictures don't really do it justice, this is a very well-built phone, has the premium feel of an iPhone. ****es all over Samsung's phones in build quality. Very solid-feeling (easy considering the fact the battery isn't removable and there's no SD card slot) Battery life seems good, and the little enhancements to Android are on the whole welcome improvements. Sphere camera thing is a gimmick and basically doesn't work. The camera its distinctly average - not great autofocus and poor access to controls. Having direct access from lock screen is a plus though. On the subject of lock screens, the widget thing is a recipe for disaster (you can put widgets on the lock screen for access to read your mail, SMS, etc. without unlocking the phone). Not great if you're being economical with the truth with the missus, or if you leave it on your desk at work etc. Chrome works well, particularly the sync if you use it on your computer, and the whole phone is mega fast compared to even the S3 Screen is lovely, I find the colours which some say are muted to be natural and accurate, particularly compared to Samsung's retina-burning approach. It tapers over the sides of the phone which I like, adds to the solid premium feel. Couple of downsides: Its really slippery. Not in the hand (the rubber band around the rim ensures that) but if you put it down on the arm of the sofa I guarantee it will be heading to the floor. Never known a phone like it. I bounced mine within 2 minutes of opening it (fortunately fell on to carpet) The power button is placed slightly too far away from the back cover, meaning its a slight stretch for your thumb to reach it when powering it on one-handed. Overall its a bloody awesome phone for the money, if you can get one at list price go for it. As long as you have a good data contract go for the 8GB version and store your music in Google Play (free)

Had a couple of bikes nicked over the years, fact of life but yes still annoying. Nan's house got burgled twice, we had a pretty good idea which of the local scrotes did it as well but police did nothing. This was late 80s, pretty difficult back then to get a conviction without the stolen goods being in their possession or them being caught going equipped. Considered finding him and taking him out to the Forest for a quiet word. My Nan was a pretty fierce resourceful character so I don't think it affected her that much - carried on living in the same house on her own for another 15 years. Only really upset about some of the jewellery she lost. Fortunately never had my house burgled but I know in my head I'd want to kill whoever did it, slowly and painfully. No doubt I wouldn't though...

The old man has a pig valve in his aorta, without it he would be either dead or on warfarin for the rest of his life. I did get a glare when I asked whether the donor was tasty

Strange, when he was first "famous" he said he was a Chelsea fan in interviews. -
On the downside, Polish, and likely to be bat**** crazy

The 8GB one has about 5.7GB user-accessible memory once you've installed the common apps. A little bit tight to my mind, unless you're using lots of cloud services for storage. Pretty essential to make use of Google Play's cloud music app to store your music in the cloud with that amount of memory available.
