  1. Fair play to them, i hope it makes them happy.
  2. I renewed throught the comparison sites and came up with Swiftcover, i messed about a little with the information and discovered that having a woman on your policy reduces it by 15-20% (i put my mother on there!), adding commuting and business miles added about £3, putting the mileage at 6000 per year always got the cheapest quote. However they also want the exactly how it left the factory and anything added or taken away from the standard specification has to be delcared, non standard alloys add £160, Towbar add £60 etc. etc. No claims makes a difference of about 25-35% going from 2 years to 9 years (discovered i could use my bike no-claims as i'm not currently using it). They are absolutely taking the **** but what else can you do?
  3. Glastonbury will carry on regardless of what's happening elsewhere, the other festivals just don't compare.
  4. Some great tunes but the banter is very much local radio crossed with a DLT impersonator. B- Must try harder
  5. Normally i jetwash but i like the sound bleaching, do you have a personal recommendation with regards to a brand? PS Everybody knows Soundgarden and Mudhoney were the best bands to come out of grunge.
  6. Nirvana were for people who a bit whiny, attention seeking and in need of a good wash, good band but WAY overrated.
  7. Nirvana = Poor man's Foo Fighters.
  8. You'll find them under Popular, Successful, Sell-outs and Has beens in the dictionary
  9. You're forgetting that the Interweb is a serious business!!
  10. I've given them a fair crack of the whip but IMHO (the important bit) it's music for students who aspire to being in a Danny Dyer film, bit wet without an edge.
  11. That could equally apply to Arctic Monkeys
  12. The only thing they smashed was their image, overblown ****e.
  13. Oops, News International Executive has deleted massive amounts of their archive emails When is anybody at News International going to take responsibility for this massive cock-up, the PM has alot to answer for. Question - Who's more crooked the Tory's or News International?
  14. A fit Ronnie Ekelund
  15. I was led to believe that Murdoch has some interest in them, but i'll concede that i may be wrong. Is that a TSF first? Someone admitting they may be wrong?
  16. The Sun has been available on a Sunday for years up north so not really any change apart from geography.
  17. Just saw this yesterday and thought it might be useful to anybody buying bits and pieces for their car. Go to http://www.eurocarparts.com and then type in isleworth3 in the Gift Certificate/Promo Codebox when you go through the checkout procedure.
  18. Could well be, can't honestly remember apart from they were heading towards the Chapel End.
  19. I always liked Willow, never saw him run until one game at St.Mary's where a young whippersnapper appeared to have got the better of him until Willow found a burst of speed from somewhere and surprised everybody by getting the ball off the young upstart. Maybe not the most talented but always gave his best.
  20. Some people should be going to prison if the stuff can't be accounted for, the Armed Forces are treated like a free for all by alot of the staff.
  21. Hire Amsterdam for the week and die with a smile.
  22. People often perceive motorbikes to be travelling faster than they actually are due to them being louder than cars, indeed MCN conducted an experiment a few years back and found people perception of speed was wrong, they always said that the bikes were going quicker when the cars in the experiment were always 10mph faster. Make of that what you will. As for the stupid suggestions regarding wire across the road and diesel spills i know you're just exaggerating for effect but its rather childish and stupid. I recall a farmer somewhere was reported to have put red diesel on the road outside his house because the motorcyclists annoyed him which resulted in somebody getting quite badly injured when they came off their bike. This resulted in a large number of bikers paying him a visit and trashing his property, what goes around comes around i guess.
  23. Between jobs at an agency demolishing a building and having to wear a full enclosure suit including respirator type equipment because of the slight risk of asbestos, not funny at the height of summer
  24. The Mother is quite hot, you would wouldn't you? Wonder what the etiquette is for spit or swallow?
  25. As soon as the press has hounded one of the Middleton sisters to their grave we might actually start seeing less of the other, on the other hand Diana is in the Express more now than when she was alive. We're buggered whatever happens.
