That's the one which is often cheap in name your price at priceline. If you want to stay there its always worth sticking in a low bid and see what happens.

Nice of Pompey to let those kids use their training facilities.

Prices rocket once the Spring takes hold. The place Im staying in a couple of weeks time for $135 costs $350 in May. Try name your own price on Priceline.com. Specify where you want to stay and then start low and gradually bid up until you get somewhere. Big conference hotels like the Grand Hyatt near Grand Central can be really cheap if they happen to not have an event when you want to stay.

He's got a season ticket iirc. Pap and I have many disagreements but got to admit that is dedication.

I love that and I normally can't stand those cat vids

Its been going downhill gently for ages, but seriously for the past three or four years. Sadly all the serious papers face the same problems. The loss of investigative journalism has serious implications for holding politicians and companies to account. It isn't going to be replaced by website portals who just rehash whatever the PR agencies give them.

Try VRBO. A house is going to be much cheaper than a hotel. http://www.vrbo.com/

I thought I was pretty kind to you. I'd be happy with that body now, let alone at 70!

Dont worry about it Bletch. It was a cold day and he'd just been swimming. He'd be back to normal guy dimensions when things had warmed up. -

Sure, they're fine then, right place. Its just like bikinis - fine on the beach but not so much Saturday afternoon in the mall / high street. My 10 year daughter started wearing them last year and I made her wear a skirt or long top with them. Last week she was asking for track suit bottoms instead, because she "didnt want people to see my bum". Whether that's a good or bad thing depends on why she's saying it. -

Maybe indecent is going to far - but 'too much' and 'inappropriate for the location' applies to some. More than that though I find it weird why so many women choose to wear them. They've got to be the most unflattering clothing going if you've got less than a perfect body. -
The people who only partially capitalise their poster names or the anthropomorphic ones?

Ive done it a few times. Makes you want to carry a sign up saying "Usually I'm with Someone"

I'm not sure if this is a booby or a gull

Don't be sad Goatee. Eventually your life will end up bitter and empty too. We should have a drinking club for saints fans with absent wives.

Acted as a friendly, local, trustworthy front to elicit 'share' donations to money recycling scheme?

Oh dear Simon, Sarb, Jeff. Time for yet another re-invention after another incontinent outburst. Lets be clear Ive never said I knew Katharina or was in contact with her. I have simply exchanged a couple of emails with her cousin. My job is to recruit board members and major donors in Europe for a charity. The patron is a former US President. The minimum tariff for a place on the board is $500,000pa but many give much more than that. Naturally therefore all of them are wealthy and some are billionaires. Its my job, Im just salaried hired help. I don't pretend they regard me as peers or friends, although obviously the board members Ive worked with professionally for several years are friendly. We dont take money from Russia because the origin of the money is too murky. Last year you accused me of being a fantasist and I offered to introduce you to somebody I was meeting 300m from your office near Regent Street. You bottled out at the last minute claiming in a pm "My boss is a billionaire and I know him really well".

Did you prefer the used 118 because it was easier to park and you didn't want to scrape a new car?
-
Lets be clear - your rapier like piece of insight was that a two year old car was cheaper than a new one. No shi t. When I gently pointed out you weren't comparing like for like with the absence of a full warranty being one aspect - you stropped off.

Of course. There are whole library departments devoted to it. Am I going to provide a reading list? no. The Sutton Trust and The Joseph Rowntree Trust are good starting points. This paper from the Parliamentary Education committee summarises some of the points. http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201415/cmselect/cmeduc/142/14206.htm
