Was in HMV after work today and bought a rare Prince CD. I was a bit shocked to be charged £35 for it, but when I got it home I partied like it was £19.99.

"Well I got the test results, and they don't look good. You have chlamydia, gonorrhea and onomatopoeia." "Sorry, but what is onomatopoeia?" "It's exactly what it sounds like."

Supply. Demand. Simple.

Indeed. Why mention it if it's "normal"....? UHY is expected to hand control of the liquidation to insolvency firm Baker Tilly. The firms met at the High Court yesterday to set a date for the hand-over. Geoff Carton-Kelly, of Baker Tilly Restructuring and Recovery LLP, said: ‘We have not yet been appointed as liquidators, but we expect to be appointed liquidators in around two weeks. ‘This is a normal process as part of the CVA. An application is made to wind up the old company, and the court hears that. ‘Because there are technicalities over the way the administration needs to be completed they’re going to take a little bit longer to decide. ‘It’s not unusual for another firm to become liquidators. In the majority of cases the administrators become liquidators, but there’s nothing to be read into that.’ Btw, what are these "technicalities"....?

I'm going on a burglary spree this weekend. Any idea of the best streets to rob houses? Cheers ;-)

Why wouldn't privatisation work? As long as the contracts are robustly drawn up by the council and robustly enforced then there's no need for anyone to be fearful of a drop in service levels. Privatisation usually "fails" because of poor engagement and regulation procedures, not due to privatisation itself per se.

Aka "human error"

I know of a chap in Wolverhampton who has a scanner (allegedly)

I walk past there everyday....will keep an eye out...

Maybe they go to more away games because they don't have to travel so far each time, but totted up they end up travelling more miles overall than, say, an average Newcastle fan who probably goes to less games. Or, there again, maybe not.

No.

Pele in one of his better positions?

We're diverting funds from the hitherto shelved Monkey-Chicken Petting Zoo scheme

Mods - suggest we change the thread title to "Pele - he was an OK midfielder for us"? ;-)

As it was a PLC in 'those days', won't the publicly available accounts hold the answer to the "where did all the money go?" question....?
