  1. What size bra does your Mrs wear Baz?
  2. They are still earning a living ripping people off, whether it is Roger the dodger or Fagan, they are both in the wrong, just one is richer than the other. They are computer literate English speakers in a booming economy, there would be other opportunities out there.
  3. Like a diet coke version of mission impossible
  4. He has loads. He is the blueprint of how to deal with sales calls.
  5. [video=youtube;-7OgWcwgB50]
  6. As someone famously said about us, If we finish above Wigan, we will stay up.
  7. Although I agree to a mild extent, that estate agents and letting agents are scum, they are not the problem. They are just taking money that is already in the economy and moving it from one bank to the next. That money is already in the economy and makes little difference to the bigger picture if it is in your account or mine or the estate agents. In fact, the money moving about in the ecomomy is good in a general sense as some of that money will be taxed and you would hope the tax money would go to improve society as a whole. The problem is.... Bank 1 lends someone 100K to buy a house. That morgage document then becomes an asset for the bank. They are then allowed to lend 10 times that amount as they only have to hold a fraction of what they lend out at a central bank (sometimes called an actual or a real deposit). They then lend out 10 more 100ks to 10 more people and so on and so on. The problem comes when they have lent out too many 100ks without consideration and a large number of these default. This means there is money in the system (lent out) but it can't be recovered form the debtor. To cover the lost money and the interest, the economy has to grow. The problem is, if there is little confidence in the market, and less resources the economy struggles to grow, making the problem get worse. A simplistic view but I could go on all day and bore you to death.
  8. Too much money isn't actually 'there' in the first place. Using debt as a form of 'gold standard' isn't really a great idea in it's most simplistic form but when it is allowed to happen on a mass scale in a highly deregulated market it is just ridiculous. The evils of capitalism, red braces and filofaxes (read blackberry's in 2012).
  9. So I have to post another lesson to save this nitwit from the gallows?
  10. I drove through Oxford once, it seemed quite posh. If you like posh stuff and QI, I'd go for it.
  11. I can't see dune coming up with this stuff even as a cover story. He just couldn't bring himself to it. Permission for bail to be returned sir?
  12. You see this Pap/Bletch? He isn't dune. I discharge him from my care.
  13. I have had the same phone call 3 times now (I have different numbers as work from home), each time I get more an more angry. I asked the last one what it felt like to be doing a job were the object was to try and rip off the old or the gullible. I asked if there were any other options for work, perhaps selling genuine software or even PPI claim backs(FFS!). This might be an arrogant western reply and I do not understand the pressures of their country but I would like to think that If I was in a developing (but booming) economy, I wouldn't sink as low as being a tele-conman. In the end the fecker hung up. They say they are in NY as well. For lols ask them about stuff in NY. I said that I had just got back, do they know the Yankies/Giants results, the road works on 5th Avenue etc.
  14. Main board FFS! Milton will you please show Barry the ropes?
  15. Not.......... leia?!?
  16. Right, that does it. Until someone tells me what this is all about, I am assuming this.
  17. These weapons are sounding a bit mechanical to me.
  18. Good call.
  19. Ok, stop crying girls. You are allowed one weapon (not mechanical like a gun) and one special skill I.e karate, judo, being able to jump high.
  20. Nobody said it was going to be easy. This is big boy sh!t.
  21. But Benji is pretty small. They'd be like carebears.
  22. Pap lives in Kenny you know? If that's as rough as Kenny Dalglish, he'll be fine. There are two options as well bear.
  23. You ever seen a bear fetch a stick?
  24. We will have 24 hours to find out hypo, in the meantime please share your story with the rest of the class.
  25. This is mainly for the harder posters like Turkish, Charming man, Griffo and Pap. Would you rather fight 100 dog sized bears, or 1 bear sized dog? FYI - Standard dog size is Benji, standard bear size is Gentle Ben.
