One of: a) Gas explosion (it was a hotel) b) a Tim McVeigh nutter type c) Al Qaeda d) NK (they have bombed planes in the past) e) Iran at a guess. Bomb forensics will go a long way to helping identify it. if it's c) they'll take the credit (and they might anyway). Having lived in Boston, thankfully my mates there are ok (and their sons and daughters who had decided to go to watch the finish - phew). cowards and arseholes if it's not a

I didn't expect the death of Baroness Thatcher to make me think more of Stan Collymore. The world is a strange place.

Did Barcelona in 2 days - was a stretch but ok - roads through central spain dodgy so like Whitey Grandad says it's a 3 day trip I think. However, we stopped Paris day 1, day 2 Barcelona (and I'd probably look at day 2 Agde now I've been around there) then drive from there maybe

I think the Media line for 2013 should be something like 35m so as mentioned above a lot of it is based on the equity swap. Nice to see us budgeting to pay creditors as well! :-)

i share his name, so this news is slightly freaky to me

You can pick up a tidy, well running DB9 for 35k Phil, as opposed to a dilapidated **** hole for a few million so I'm not sure this works ;-)

love it

My sister is good mates with him. Says he was a nice bloke who had a hospital pass of the first job being to announce the sacking of Adkins - shame

happiness is a mental stance. i agree

retired with 4m to **** around with

West Wood?

Can we get Matt Target involved with the first team squad - he's meant to be good. Fox could be cover for left wing - his defensive concentration and positioning is the problem with him...

Rory McGrath. he is 5 grand for an evening. as was Giles Brandreth. the company i used to work booked both of these.

It gets better and better this.

ibase has yet to file any accounts - please let them get involved

Ah - the key bit being the phone number look up - that's actually slightly worrying unless you have a FB account called Viking warrior and your number on that or something equally "out there"

Anything you post on the internet is "out there". Somebody searched for my name once as some work due diligence thing and got a comment I wrote about club legends and Francis Benali. Personally I actually think that this is quite good, especially as they didn't come around and tear gas you but asked about your experience - fair play to them

I'm in a massive mard arse about this - really ruined my day this has... Can you imagine the team talk Monday night in Spanish, via an interpreter to a bunch of players signed by Adkins. I see Ricky leaving before 31st Jan now

I've worked in IT all my life and one of the most soul destroying things about it is that it automates jobs that people do so you don't need them any more. I now work in ecommerce - it's a boom industry, retail spend in the UK last Christmas online was £1,000,000,000. Basically, ecommerce is automating the high street. It all moves in cycles however, and multi-channel commerce will change things. One of the UK's most powerful ecommerce brands in John Lewis / Waitrose and they succeed because their stores work *with* their web / mobile / call centre experiences... Good news is that ecommerce has saved Royal Mail - who expected that!

exactly, you don't just have to be poor, stupid or terminally optimistic to do the lottery, it's open to everyone

When I worked at Totton Con Club behind the bar one of the old lags (Bob) insisted that his favourite drink was "Meths & Lime" from his time stuck in the Middle East in the late 40s / early 50s. bear in mind that he drank 6 pints at lunchtime...

she speaks more sense than Craig David!

I was bitten by a Horsefly in Feb before - saw the bugger do it as well so it could be one of them. Nasty ****s

My sister gave birth on Tuesday and had a Saints baby grow which Adam signed this morning before they left hospital. top man

ha ha - superb
