    Last October,but was still a good night.
  2. Good to see them turning it around but when they say it shows what can be done because they are no longer saddled with massive debt,it makes me wonder how many small companies suffered because of money owed to them. Also there massive debt was based on gambling with doing well in the premiership and champions league,must be nice to wipe that out when you run the business badly and screw everyone you owed money to.

    Have to agree i watched my first live game at Madison square garden,i picked about the only night to go when the Knicks lost.But overall a really good atmosphere and well organised no waiting for food or drink and the tickets reasonably priced to.
  4. I hope Hatton wins but just have a feeling time might be catching up with him..Any fighter who's defence consists of leading with his face isn't going to go on to long into his thirties.Also his lifestyle is awfull he openly admits to putting on upto 2-3 stone between fights,now you can't keep loosing that weight quickly to build up for fights without it having some sort of long term effect.
  5. Now that how a racing car should look,can see a few more wings getting knockes of this year.
  6. I know bit mad really but think of the publicity it would get for them,but can't see it happening with his links to Ferrari can't see them liking him advertising Honda.
  7. At least since he has retired Schumacher has seen the light and now enjoys racing bikes.
  8. Yeah i think that scene works the instant you see the bloke bite the kerb,then you know in your head whats going to happen but the tension still builds till the camera cuts away to his brothers reaction.
  9. I think some things should be kept to yourself and admitting to seing Alvin and the chipmunks is one of them.
  10. I think mainly because of the content but if more gave it a chance they would be suprised although there is still some cringe moments because of the violence. Also strange seeing Randy from My Name Is Earl being a nazi skinhead.
  11. Just watched this film for the second time and can't get over how good it is,Edward Norton providing one of his best performances and Edward Furlong is very good as the younger brother following in his older brothers footsteps. I know the racial content might not be for everyone but i think the film does deal with the issue form different angles well. I would advise people to give this film a watch to see Norton's character realising he has to change his ways and turn his back on the skinhead neo-nazi beliefs and lifestyle to try and safe his family.
  12. Shame they have gone produced some good beer,but in this day and age they probably have no chance chance getting the beer into most pubs.Sad that maybe more local based pubs couldn't of done a deal to carry their beer,but then not famous like Morrisey and Fox who got straight into Tesco's.
  13. Have had similar dealings with Natwest,i had an overdraft with them i got called in for an appointment only to have my overdraft removed and they then sat there and tryed to sell me one of there loans.They even had the paperwork printed out already and informed me if i didn't take it my account would be closed,so it would leave me with no chance to find a better deal. 1976 Child be carefull if you have money in another account with the same bank and have not paid the overdraft back by the date they gave you the bank will take the funds from the other account to cover it,normally without even contacting you.
  14. 5,10,11.
  15. What are you on about?
  16. Would that be the same waiting lists that have had the way patients appear on them altered to keep figures down. But as this is a fuel thread unleaded at my local garage is back down to 92.9p a litre which is almost the price it was before the stupid increases.
  17. Just watched Monty pythons Search for the holy grail,not as good as life of brian but still good after all these years. Also been watching Donnie Brasco and Goodfellas both top films with actors giving top notch performances.
  18. I'm certain it also must have something to do with how SFC as a business is structured that makes it unappealing.
  19. At a younger age motorbike riders used to be hit with stupid premiums compared to car drivers because of inexperience and the greater chance on a bike of having an accident.Although have to say that has changed a fair bit now.
  20. No Nothing changed at the time i was under 25 it was a renewal with my existing company.I had never had an accident and no previous convictions,also forgot to say it was on a motorbike. Have been with Swintons all my adult life and they used Lloyds motor policies on motorbikes and the price always came down.
  21. I ended up with six points from two SP30 convictions within 3 months of each other and my insurance dropped the following year.
  22. Depends on your insurance company, but when i got done twice a few years back i let mine know and they informed me that as long as it was an SP30 they didn't even take notice of them as so many people get caught nowdays.
  23. Great aircraft and did i hear that they only fuel it with the proper fuel it runs on when it's airbourne. How a warplane should look mean as anything.
  24. Just don't get the Gas board in to do it,we used them to fit a new boiler and have never seen such a shoddy job.
  25. As far as i know if they are a private debt collection company they can not enter your property they can only visit to confirm who lives there. I think the only time you really need to worry is if it is from a court but then the bailiff would contact you in advance normally. I'm not 100% sure on this so you may want to look into it or get some legal advice.
