Whitey Grandad

Lots of errors today. Poor crossing when not under pressure and poor positioning.

The bicycle.

Please elaborate. How many seconds?

So to win this league all you need to do is win the first game and then not play any more games. Simples

Scottish bank notea are not legal tender in England. I hate pedantic arseholes who pont out every little flaw in an argument.

On its own, not very significant and well within the error of measurement. It's the longer tem trend that's more important.

We shall have to get used to it, this is what it is going to be like from now on no matter who is in office.

What would happen if we did?

The lino has a flag but the ref has the whistle.

If mining coal was so wonderful why doesn't anybody raise some money and start digging again?

I've been out of touch for a couple of weeks. Has anything happened?

Some irony in there. If the protesters didn't protest it might cost less? Edit: Snap!

Mmm, I'm agreeing with everybody. Should I be worried?

As Barry Humphries said, 'The trouble with doner kebabs is that you don't know who the donor was'.

I asked the question because many on here have been advocating building houses and lending them to the poor, which is what Clinton encouraged. We have limited finances available to stimulate the economy and putting them into the property market is not necessarily a brilliant idea. Economists will be debating for decades the causes of the credit crunch and will will not come to an agreed answer. To blame any one sector of the economy is very simplistic but there are enough candidates for everybody to find a target for their personal prejudices. (Incidentally, a major part of the problem in America was that american mortgage rates can only be negotiated downwards)

Very true.

That's because she didn't.

You won't be doing the west coast of spain from Calais in two days unless you drive non-stop through the nights. We've been towing the caravan down to the Costa Brava or Perpignan for over twenty years and the travel time from Ouistreham/Le Havre has dropped from 17 to 12 hours for about 690 miles but you are looking at about the same time again, at least, I would say. Calais to Paris is three hours on the road. I would recommend choosing somewhere a bit nearer.

Why is the keeper going for the ball with his hands in that photo?

He's just jealous.

Now now, did I say that it was all down to one person? My question was to raise a serious debating point, not to stir up prejudices.

She turned the country around and I, for one, am grateful.

If she can't avoid tripping over a kerb then what the hell is she doing in the police?

Certainly it's no profit, no dividends. Salary is another matter.

That's not the case in every company. You cannot just increase your wage bill and expect that your customers will pay more for your products. There are many companies that are struggling to make any sort of profit at all, whose directors and shareholders have had no returns for several years. Would you drive those out of business and put their employees back on the state to support?
