  1. Obviously not possible with today's technology, but give it 40 years and I can well believe they will be flying around. Incidentally the new Boeing 787 is due to enter service in the 3rd quarter of this year with ANA (Japan).
  2. Goats do not exist.
  3. If Button gets penalised for either incident, I'm going to give up and watch womens darts instead. EPIC win!!! Epic is an overused term, but that was epic. Last to winning it on the last lap... wow.
  4. Well, the Mclaren boys are out of it (Jenson still going in 10th), but on the up side Di Resta is 6th and Kobayashi is 2nd.
  5. DC holding a brolly 30 mins before kick off. This could be a good'n.
  6. If anyone makes a Skacel joke I will go round to their house and punch them.
  7. I can play many of Kajagoogoo's greatest hits on the vuvuzela, but since the OP ruled it out I'm going to have to say no.

  9. The way I see it, players who cast some doubts in League 1 aren't going to be anywhere near the quality we need to push for the Prem. Gobern and Seaborne are two such players. I'd be happy to see him move on TBH. I know he may come back and bite us in the backside, but that's football. We can't just hang on to everyone in the fear that they will come back and haunt us.
  10. What are the best laptop processors around? Use mine for a reasonable amount of multi-tasking, although nothing extreme and gaming.
  11. And yet we had a squad of 40 odd players. It's about quality, not quantity. When I say quality, we're not just talking about skills. I include fitness and proneness to injury in that criteria too. That defence was a disaster waiting to happen. We failed to address the fact that Killer had a serious injury and sold Fitz Hall. Then we continued to rely on players like Dodd, Le Saux and Claus who had aged well beyond the pace of the Premier League. Dodd, Telfer, Jakobsson, Lundekvam, Svensson, Higginbottham, Kenton, Nilsson, Le Saux, Bernard, Davenport, Van Damme. That's 12 defenders we had on the books in that season and not one of them was up to it. 8 half decent, fit defenders would have kept us up. Let's not make those mistakes again.
  12. Anyone else going to this? I'm planning on giving it a go in a tent, but it's looking fairly likely I'll be all on me tod. If anyone else is around for the weekend it would be good to have a Saints fans meet up.
  13. Either Brizzle club or maybe Yeovil away. Don't really give a flying feck about the Worthington Cup, so something local would be more tempting. Not Swindon, been there twice, lost 1-0 twice. Sh*t hole.
  14. If only Sheffield and Bristol didn't have two clubs, I reckon they could both be Prem regulars. I'm not so sure about Lincoln being 1/4 of a million. I grew up there and from my vague recollection of geography lessons it barely troubled the 80k mark. (It's 88k according to wiki). Should be in the FL for sure, but hardly a big place. Same size as Bath, which doesn't have a League club either, although they are fairly close to Brizzle and Swindon and do have egg chasing.
  15. I'm pretty sure this race wont go ahead, but if it does we could have something similar to the 2005 USA GP where all the competitors just pull into the pits after the parade lap. This would of course be highly embarassing for all the arseholes running F1, so the teams have a fair bit of clout in that respect. I hope F1 never returns to Bahrain, on moral and boring the sh*t out of me grounds.
  16. 1-1 draw at home to Leeds.
  17. If you can burn the songs on to a CD, I think you can then play them on WMP. Can't remember how exactly I did it, but it worked when I had an iriver, which apparently doesn't work with itunes.
  18. That was deliberate, but thanks anyway.
  19. I'm sure there's loads of cool stuff out there for those with the patience to look for it. Main stream music is, in general, sh*te. - Black people desperate to be a cliche - White people desperate to be black people - Soulless pop records by bland reality TV "winners" - Utterly pointless cover versions which massacre classic hits. - Blokes in skinny jeans and a hat who use hair straighteners, who think they're new and unique because their band is called 'Mongolian super marmalade and they have sampled an idling lawnmower on their latest single. - Laddy Gaga
  20. I'm still waiting for the club to tell us Safri is leaving, so I wouldn't hold your breath.
  21. He has a point though. Vokes is ****.
  22. Going to **** it down tomorrow. Should freshen things up a tad.
  23. That was an pretty poor penalty too. Crap game really.
  24. I don't think it's a question of idiocy. I think it's about people being highly suggestible and afraid of death. People don't want to believe that this is it, so they cling to ideas like religion and clairvoyancy.
  25. If you want proof of its bullsh*ttiness, just make up a dead relative you want to communicate with. Before you know it, they will be telling you ficticious uncle Ray is at peace and he wants you not to worry about money. I think South Park did a very funny spoof of an American 'medium' called John Edward.
