oh f**k

I know you're going with the Mrs but a trip to Camp Nou is an absolute must, I'm sure she won't mind going with you, or go shopping or something. It's Amazing. Everyting people above has said are great, the incomplete cathedral is awesome, though. Enjoy!

It's all an attempt to overshadow the election news.

It scares me! I thought that it was whoever i voted for in the locals would then get the seat in Westminster. What's the point in having mr a locally but then voting for mr b nationally?

Why did i vote twice yesterday, one local and one national? What's the difference?

Labour / Labour

this one?

that is horrible to watch. very sad indeed. poor thing.

i aint :smt005

what the hell is this thread all about??

They also said that cameron would be pm

Does seem odd. Is it right that as of midnight the tv and radio etc can't mention the election etc?

moving abroad

Just seen some bloke in his 50s put this sign back up in hedge end way

JB - this was taken straight off the beeb site, sorry.

For those, like me who still dont know who to vote for, here is (hopefully) an unbiased description of the main parties key areas. Conservative Aim to eliminate "the bulk" of the UK's structural deficit within five years beginning in 2010 with £6bn in cuts Spending cuts in all areas apart from health and foreign aid Allow charities, trusts, voluntary groups and co-operatives to set up new Academy schools, independent of local authority control, and to run other public services Scrap identity card scheme Recognise marriage in the tax system by allowing adults who are married or in a civil partnership to transfer up to £750 of their tax-free personal allowance to their spouse, as long as the higher-income member of the couple is a basic-rate taxpayer. Labour "Targeted" increase in public spending over the next year to "sustain the recovery", before cutting the deficit by more than 50% by 2014 and reducing the structural deficit by at least two-thirds over the next parliament Protect "frontline investment" in childcare, schools, the NHS and policing Ensure all people who suspect they have cancer get test results within one week Restore the link between the state pension and earnings from 2012 Guarantee a place in education or training for all 16 and 17 year olds Guarantee people aged 18-24 a job, work experience or training place if they are unemployed for more than six months Give parents of one- and two-year-olds an extra £4 a week in Child Tax Credit for each child from 2012 Hold a referendum on adopting the Alternative Vote system for Westminster elections and making the House of Lords fully elected by October 2011. Lib Dem Identify and cut £15bn of lower priority spending per year to protect front-line services while reducing structural deficit at least as fast as Labour plans, beginning in 2011 Raise the threshold at which people start paying income tax from £6,475 to £10,000 Impose "mansion tax" on the value of properties over £2m and increase capital gains tax to bring it into line with income tax Introduce a banking levy until such time as banks' retail and investment arms can be separated Scrap identity card scheme Provide £2.5bn for a "Pupil Premium" for schools teaching the poorest pupils, allowing average primary school class sizes to be cut to 20 Replace the Council Tax with a Local Income Tax after a pilot phase Introduce a written constitution and single transferable vote (STV) system for all UK elections Allow voters to force a by-election for any MP found responsible for "serious wrongdoing".

Just been on BBC that there are no flights landing or taking off from Greece because of mass strikes.... !

Has anyone tried reducing their sky package, taking off sports, and got it for a £1, yet? Seem to remember it being talked about last year??

Hmm, not sure. Ireland looked pretty good in the field and were as unlucky as we were yesterday with the weather. Think it would have been close

So twice in 2 days England on the wrong end of the result.

Actually, sky just said as it stands Ireland are out if no play before 9.59

Not sure, 10?
