    The cells below court are just holding cells. It's prison or nuffin'

    Jury Service

    Yeah, you can quite easily defer once, but you will have to attend when they send through another date. The amount you can claim back is something like £200 max a week i think.

    Core2 DUO 2GB Ram Laptop

    That model is indeed horrid and weighs a fair bit. IBM would be my choice though. I quite like the X60's :happy

    Parking Ticket Worth Appealing ?

    No, it is frozen whilst your dispute is investigated. in the event that your claim is thrown out you normally get 2 weeks to pay before the fine doubles

    TV show tonight (8.00pm) for all you renters / non landlords

    Heh, "owns". By their own admission their rental yields were low, and they are relying purely on capital gains. It's nothing but paper money. Oh, and isn't the Eurostar station in Ashford closing? :yay:

    Name and praise

    Forman IT and Alexa are good. Never had any probs with either of them. Consult RS is probably the worst agency I've ever been with. Absolutely disgraceful :tantrum:

    Training, what sort if any?

    If you've got the experience I can see no harm in gaining the MCSE as something to put on your CV, just put more emphasis on your experience and try not to make it look you're a 'paper mcse'. If you know your stuff the exams are quite straightforward.

    Best Umbrella Company to use?

    Danbro are pretty good. :yay: Steer well clear of GreenLantern35 though, they're nothing but a load of :spank:

    The edge of the crash?

    Who said anything about renting for life? Like I said, our rent is LESS that a interest only mortgage would be on the same property, so we're hardly subsidising our landlord are we? In the meantime I'll just bank the difference and wait for a sense of normality to our ridiculously overvalued...

    The edge of the crash?

    So, you KNEW that prices would go up 300% did you? It's nothing about having balls, more about common sense.
