  1. Hamster behave, all this class stuff is a nonsense and its time people stopped holding onto the working class stuff. The bin man when i was a kid was looked at as being for the underachievers at school and in a way looked on with a bit of mirth. In those days they would have to walk to your back garden lift up a metal dustbin , full of rotten food etc, rarely cleaned out. Then they would struggle with 1 or 2 of those , empty them out and then carry them back to the back garden. Now we roll them out on wheels while the dustcart leisurely drives door to door for the men to wheel them to the lifter that mechanically lifts and pours the sorted contents into the rear. The bin then is rolled back to the gate. It is not a job that only the school underachievers want anymore. It is a fairly well rewarded job and apparently not long hours, and at christmas we always generously reward them again with tax free tips. It is a very important job, there is no doubt about that.
  2. you were one of my English teachers, by any chance?
  3. if they only have that squad when we play them they will be shot and we would beat them. If they strengthen that squad then they will be a decent side.
  4. walked through Southampton high street and was embarrassed to see the streets littered with bottles cans and takeaway boxes. If society perhaps were more vigilant with their rubbish we might need less binmen. I know there is a strike but there are emergency bins provided to take the mess. How the passengers from one of the worlds most exclusive liners made of the state of our city when the ship docked this week. We have friends from Russia visiting and they were shocked how bad it was.Not good publicity for our city. I licve away from Southampton but my understanding is that the council have asked for a 5% pay cut to stop redundancies, is that correct\?
  5. thats Ok if you understand such things. I myself am not a technology savvie person and so find all thise things very difficult to set up.
  6. I dont see what all the fuss is about re Phils post. He was only relaying a scenario. I dont think he said it 100% correct, a possible way. Personally I believe RM has too much power, and this may turn out to be a good thing. Blair and Brown danced to his tune and the ConLibs knew they had to to gain power. This is not something that is good for any of us.
  7. I dont suppose any of us lapped up the scandal over the years lol. The phone-hacking of certain people was scandalous but no doubt it also found some bad uns in its time. I read it (no surprise there )and prefer it to Mirror/ People etc. The Guardian readers , our pillars of society will of course rejoice but they are the ones who proclaim freedom of speech and then want to shout down everyone else, as they are of course correct.
  8. I have just cancelled my adwords. It has become very expensive for the words i require. My website has become more important as time goes on but the cost of Adwords to what it gains is becoming inbalanced. Be careful of SEO companies, a lot don't deliver what they promise.
  9. I was told he was at the beach the other day lying down and water was spouting from his navel
  10. My mother in law would have a better than evens chance to chase him. If we get him, i will seriously doubt what is going on
  11. the bottle (drunken mix) was a the song at the clubs when I was single,had my first dance with my wife to it as well
  12. the CVA not being serviced was due to the fact your club did not really try to get into a position to do so. I agree that the creditors signed up to it, but many were Pompey fans and so took the knock. So much ducking and diving by the administrator and playing with the figures to stop the HMRC having a proper say saved you.Morally your club is in the sewer,but i could not say that if I had the choice of how you have had all the good years and still come out alive, I would not wish for the same at SMS. We have tried to do it the proper way but that will not give us the keys to the PL, it could well be the clubs with the more unsavoury owners WHU Brum and yourselves who are battling to get back to the PL
  13. so 2 more players have arrived and Halford later this week. They are going to be quite strong by the time the season starts.None are world beaters but all decent for our league and will be difficult to beat.
  14. Remember when HR's house was raided and the press were there waiting to film it, perhaps this was done to hacking as well
  15. If you recall he did say at one time he doesnt post from home as his wife didnt like him using the computer, I doubt he would be allowed to use her ipad.
  16. I think it is best to wait and see for a bit longer yet. I am surprised that we have yet to get any players in. If there is STILL a 5 year plan surely the squad should be strengthened to help that mantra
  17. the administrator was a very clever operator. Of course there is no incentive to get 3m in players sales and so any payments can be sidestepped for as long as possible.
  18. Im would think he'd be ok in our league.
  19. Poyet IMO is a good judge of a player.
  20. I saw a documentary once where it showed Africans setting net traps to catch them as they were on the migration path back to the UK. We had a lot turn up at our new abode, luckily i managed to knock their nests off the wall and bbq them.........only kidding. We have had loads here
  21. who is Spade face? POF ?
  22. Oh ,I see. If that is all it would be cheaper to pay someone to take it away, a skip will cost quite a bit
  23. OOOOOOhhhhhhhh dear you're in trouble she's not Russian. Phil will have to go to the playground and ask her
