  1. Taxi for Deppo........ PS. I agree about her version of 'You Got the Love'. Fortunately I have Candi Staton's original version (1986) on Streetwave 12" (£20 - £60 on discogs.com) so I never have to listen to Florence's version.
  2. Bearing in mind David Luker's message to niceandfriendly, will ST holders still be able to buy tickets for £10 on the day?
  3. Er......?
  4. Source?
  5. Really?
  6. http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~1920140,00.html The OS mentions that Trots is unavailable for the FA Cup, but recalling a player at short notice seems a drastic measure for a competition we have no hope of winning. Is this a clue that Trots won't be around much longer?
  7. Not at the Grand Harbour you haven't mate!
  8. Thatcher will die this year.
  9. Laphroaig and cocaine.
  10. Great stuff JB. And well done to DellDays for sharing with the blue few. I spat my coffee out at "All fish fiddlers leave the room".
  11. Perhaps the money in the buckets paid for Mr Fry's room service bill at the De Vere?
  12. Zzzzzz......... PS. When copying and pasting entire Wiki articles please acknowledge the fact in your post.
  13. I agree 100%. It really has nothing to do with ML or NC. But the question remains, and those who are ultimately accountable should provide a breakdown of how the monies were used.
  14. I quite enjoyed this, but I have to agree about the Dr Who thing. I kept expecting David Tennant to appear and save the day.

    There are very few people in the world who don't know right from wrong. Are you suggesting that 'mental illness' should only be used as a defence by a tiny percentage of sociopaths? The inference is that if someone is not one of these very rare people then they are healthy enough to be executed. In so doing you are precluding millions of people who suffer with other mental health issues, such as paranoid schizophrenia, from having a fair trial. When all is said and done killing someone is wrong, whether it is as a crime or a punishment.

    Let's face it, without the Chinese there wouldn't be much of a global economy. Yes, the British government will protest in 'the strongest possible terms' and the Chinese will respond by saying it's none of our business and that will be an end to it. Then it will be business as usual.
  17. Great reading.
  18. This looks great. BoB is one of the best things I've seen on TV. If only I could get my Blu-Ray version back from my boss.......
  19. Thanks Rory. Didn't realise there was a new mixtape. Pancake obviously hasn't had time to make a sticky yet. I will give it a listen, it looks intriguing though, I'm not familiar with much except Matthew Herbert and the Cinematic Orchestra.
  20. I love this story, particularly the theatrical manner in which Holmes reveals Oldacre's hiding place!
  21. Some of my favourite albums of the year, in no particular order.... The Heavy - 'The House that Dirt Built'. Great album, 'How You Like Me Now?' is an outstanding tune, check it out here http://www.theheavy.co.uk/ Yage - 'The Woodlands of Old'. Dark and spooky stuff from Amorphous Androgynous' producer. Bibio - 'Ambivalence Avenue'. Beautiful. Gorgeous. Clever. Hudson Mohawke - 'Butter'. This sounds like an explosion at a soft toy factory whilst Outkast are being given a guided tour! King Cannibal - 'Let the Night Roar'. Some excellent programming. Very fierce indeed. Quite unsettling at times. Wildbirds and Peacedrums - 'The Snake'. Amazing female vocals coupled with some serious percussion. Fantastic.
  22. Agreed.

    The Chinese 'government' are an absolute disgrace.
  24. Why did you build your stadium in a swamp? Bring back Layer Road, I liked it there.
  25. Just back. Sh1t ground, sh1t fans. Colchester seem to have built their shiny new stadium in the middle of a swamp. I half expected to see Swamp Thing lumbering up the pitch towards me, through the fog. We were unlucky not to get something from this game. Poor officials (as usual), and ball boys that deserved a good kicking. Good support from us though. Revenge will be so sweet....... We will beat Colchester in the play offs....... You heard it here first!
