  1. Beef or not beef, that is equestrian
  2. I have to say well done to the mods and admin on here for not being such a collosal knob as frattoniser
  3. Blow the effing whistlw
  4. Behind sofa whimpering
  5. We dead yet?
  6. Noddy club, noddy fans, noddy attiude. Noddy.
  7. Actually, if that is the preferred mode of transport for the press barons, then I suspect that will be glossed over
  8. That doesn't look too promising for those inside. Also, now wait for the outcry about the dangers of helicopters flying over built up areas.
  9. Is he ours yet?

    Scars

    Blue mark in knee obtained when dad emergency stopped and I managed to stab myself with a sharp pencil . Cut across each knuckle on right hand. I threw an apple up to try and cut it in half with a sheath knife, unfortunately my mate decided to see if he could cut the apple in half at the same time. I got the apple, he got my hand. And if you are reading this, you are still a colossal pr!ck. Various pellet wounds when we thought it might be a good idea to go "paint balling" with air rifles. It was around this time our sense of self perservation kicked in.
  11. No problem.
  12. What continues to stagger me is just how much airtime a small niche pressure group can generate from what really is a non story.
  13. Who sign rodriguez - was that Les reid's signing? I reckon the catering manager must have signed Tanardi Lee as part of a drive to introduce more asian influences into the food and beverage - hence why we now have Singha Beer
  14. Why is that any different to the suppliers or the banks or any of the other creditors who have advanced goods and services in good faith?
  15. Planned ourselves - BA flight into Amman although easyjet now fly the route. Pick up a hire car and drive around - friends of our have said there are no worries on that score. Dead Sea and Petra are both on our bucket lists. We did consider a little longer in Amman and the Wadi Rum but I want to go diving so need to get to the beach.
  16. Going to Aqaba in Jordan this year -three of days touring to the dead sea and petra and 5 days on the beach. For greece try Kardymili in the Peloponese, mainland greece. (actualy there are a lot of places in the peloponese that are worth going to) off the beaten track, great tavernas, lots of repeat tourists which keeps their head above water. Also not as pricy as the islands and easy to get to - a couple of hours outside of kalamata airport and abut 5 hour drive from Athens.
  17. FFS they would survive a nuclear holocaust. I am simply stunned that they are still going.
  18. Just started watching the Sopranos - got the 6 series box set - cannot believe I have gone all this time and never watch it. Brilliant stuff
  19. Dont Jehovah Witnesses have to convert / save a certain number of people in order to be admitted to heaven?
  20. To be fair to the complainants, these cases came about due to a uniform policy changeand in the counsellor case, changes to the equality laws in this country. They were already in the jobs before the changes have been made, and in the case of the nurse for 30 years without issue.
  21. They had a bloke on 5live this morning talking about this. He said that in each case the individuas were given permission to where a cross on their lapels instead as opposed to a cross on a chain. He also went to point out that most Christians agreed with the stance on the crosses on chains (banning them in certain cases) and that the indivduals concerned were pentcostal christians who believe in miracles, symbols etc. He went to make the point that Pentacostals also believe that christians will be persecuted before the second coming of christ, so it is almost as if they welcome any form of persecution because it (in their minds) brings them closer to the second coming. IMO For health and sefety issues then, religous beliefs should be set aside, however in the case of the counsellor not willing to provide sex thearpy to a gay couple, then surely provision can be made to accomodate their wishes i.e. referring them to an alternative thearapist. I don't see the harm in that.
  22. Another top tip for weight loss... Make a really healthy wrap for lunch and then leave it on the side when you go to work. ffs
  23. Used to when I went to the infants - about 7 years old, mum used to cross me over the road outside the house and the lolipop lady used to sort out the busy road opposite the school. At eleven I got the train to school and walked up Hill Lane. I suspect it is a combination of busier roads, overprotectiveness and parents having more choice about the school their kids attend, that have led to the fall in kids making their own way.
  24. What a jammy barsteward - from an entirely envious point of view.
  25. Seriously? There is no pleasing some people.
