    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          I was joking, however IMHO Tony Iommi had more influence on guitar music in the last 30 years than the Beatles ever had. While great songwriters the Beatles were not innovative (in technique) or particularly skilled guitar players, for most part apeing 50s R&B styles. Wheras Tony gave us drop D tunning and power chords, Black Sabbath are the godfathers of modern hard Rock music.

            Anorak!

            But yes, I’d sooner listen to Black Sabbath than the Beatles.

                Helter Skelter. Not even heavy for the time, e.g. see MC5 kick out the jams of the same year.

                  and he did that without having the full complement of fingers
                  Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                  I preferred version 1!

                    What the f**k is it about Birmingham? If it's such a hotbed of insugency and terrorism, then nuke the place from orbit!
                    Fortunately, it it only a small area of B'ham this appears to happen in - there was another post earlier today where there was praise for some Brummie Muslims who are wearing armbands in support of our troops.

                      That's because The Beatles weren't an influence on guitar music.
