  1. Yes. He got on the bus instead ;-)
  2. :eek: Incredible. If we can carry that form into next season we will have the league won by Christmas!
  3. I went for this one in the end... http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0032W414O/ref=oss_product From all the reviews available it seemed by far the best option for my budget.
  4. I readily admit I am no psychologist, neither do I have any experience in the investigation of child disappearance / abduction cases. However, it has long been my suspicion that there is more to this case than meets the eye. There is just something about the body language of the two of them during their umpteen thousand public 'appeals for information' that doesn't sit right with me and makes me think that they know what actually happened to Maddy but have continued this public 'search' as a way of deflecting any suspicion. For the record, I am not making any unfounded accusations here, but it would not surprise me in the slightest to learn that they used some sedatives to get her to sleep (as has been suggested previously) which inadvertently killed her, and they cooked up the abduction story as a cover. I guess we will never know.
  5. Brilliant work Nigel. The bus rolls on and on. I still find it hard to believe that there were some on here who had written you off before you even had the chance to manage a single game.
  6. Bloomin wonderful. Up up up we go. Thank you League One and goodnight.
  7. ******* lovely Mr Connolly! Wouldn't it be sweet if we went on and beat Walsall 17-0 just to rub Huddersfield's noses in it ;-)

    Cornwall

    Constantine Bay near Padstow. Been there a few times and camped in a local farmer's field. Beautiful place - not touristy and stunning sunsets over the Atlantic.
  9. Technically, we only need to draw the second half ;-)
  10. It's pretty much an open secret that under the presidency of Pervez Musharraf, the ISI was funding and training the Taliban while at the same time Musharraf was claiming to be squarely behind the Americans in the war on terror. The guy was an absolute snake in the grass and it's only the fact that Pakistan has nuclear weapons that has prevented the US form targeting them before now IMO.
  11. I'm sadly not going tomorrow but I'm really looking forward to following the match. In years gone by I would be bricking it about going away to a relegation-threatened side, but for the first time in my Saints-supporting life I am 100% confident that the lads will go out and do a professional job and do what is necessary to get the three points. Really looking forward to celebrating promotion tomorrow. I don't think my nerves can take going to the final day to determine if we go up automatically or have to face the potential nightmare of the playoffs.
  12. Fecking superb Brighton! If it stays like this we only need one more point from our last two games.
  13. Football clubs have to pay for policing at games out of their own funds. The House of Windsor PLC is already obscenely rich thanks to the amount of public money they have received over the years. Why could they not pay for the security themselves? It's pocket change to them.
  14. I don't think the penguin population of Antarctica were too bothered about it.
  15. Well, I've been feeling a little under the weather the last few days so I would have liked to have spent the day kicking back on the sofa and watching the snooker. But unfortunately my girlfriend has been completely suckered in by the hysteria surrounding this wedding and had the BBC coverage on the telly for over 7 hours, which kind of put a crimp in my relaxation plans. But you know what Sergei? You can keep your street parties and your bunting and your cheap, crap Wills & Kate memorabilia. I'm all for celebrating a good wedding, but usually I reserve it for marriages involving people I actually give a damn about, rather than some aristocrats who don't live in the same version of reality as the rest of us.
  16. So your sarcastic comment was designed to warn against getting rid of the monarchy in case we went through a period of seventy years of murder, imprisonment and oppression; because that's what happened a century ago when the Russians overthrew their aristocracy. Like I said, why is that a good justification for keeping the monarchy?
  17. Sorry, I didn't really have time to summarise the entire history of the USSR. What exactly was the comparison you were trying to make?
  18. Couldn't have put it better myself Badger. What we witnessed today was a f***ing grotesque insult to the 'age of austerity' we are living in. If the amount of public money spent on security etc.. for today could have been used to save one public sector job or prevented a single Sure Start childrens centre from closing then the public who support it should be ashamed of themselves. Yes the royals are a quaint reminder of our glorious (?) past but IMO they have absolutely no place in a modern, supposedly democratic society and they should be condemned to the pages of the history from which their pompousness descends.
  19. So you think the failed communist experiment in Russia is a good justification for maintaining the monarchy?
  20. Weren't the Typhoons assembled in Bristol? Or was it just the engines?
  21. Good to see him keeping up his reputation for inappropriate fancy dress, although he might have over-stepped the mark by coming as Colonel Gaddafi.
  22. Rickie bigs up the defence
  23. That's either a reflection of the incredible power of propaganda, or the incredible level of stupidity among Americans; or both. Either way, it's scary.
  24. But you'll be there cheering on our future king and celebrating your Britishness though, won't you?
