    Nope ****'s are useful.

    I just mentally change his first name to Buff.

    as to Shami, I WOULD. Intelligent & cute. She probably wouldn't middle aged and balding.

    It was in Dunsta-bubble, that Question Time. My mate and his son were in the audience. Did anyone see them?

    I agree that Geoff Hoon is a complete and utter c**t also and his artument about the gritters didn't add up either. He said that 1 gritter costs £100,000 but that it would never be used and that you have to bin them every 10 years or so. Firstly why would you bin a £100,000 truck that hasn't been used - ok it's 10 years old but it still hasn't been used? Also somebody on the beeb said that the cost to the economy was anout £1.2 billion pounds per day - based on 20% pulling a sickie/day off. So if you double that as the weather improved over the week, that gives you £2,400,000,000 pounds lost. That's a sh1t load of gritters to me!

    Unless you are calling yourself strange? Ah, I see your point.
    You should try a different dictionary or maybe to take things less literally. Or do you have to use a dictionary for everything?

    Just thought I'd give you an update on whats happening in civilisation. Didn't really want or care for your xenophobic attitude to people who live in London. Get over yourself.

    Nation of moaners? Interesting. Maybe I just dont accept things as they are and realise things need to change.

    We have a reputation of being a nation of moaners. Clearly it's justified.

    People really need to lighten up...

    we can't lighten up as we pay more and more for less and less. Then they export our jobs abroad or import people to take them from us on the cheap. Our concerns are well founded.

    I prefer to take time off of my own accord as opposed to something thats dictated to me when public transport grinds to a halt in the capital over a few inches of snow. A bit pathetic really. Even some of the underground was cancelled FFS. Just glad it didn't snow too much in WW2 otherwise we really would have been in trouble.....

    Several buses today were felled in the tracks by a nasty bit of slush...

    Rant over. Where's my beer?

    <gets up. walks to fridge. peers in. grabs a cold bottle of Cobra. opens bottle. takes long swig. relaxes>

    Ahhhhhhhh! **** it. It's the weekend!

    well we can't do things without checking it's OK with EU. 80% of our laws come from EU too. Go figure- we're not in control of our own destiny when we're being told what to do by EU.

    Anyways...if that thatcher chick had just called the french fulla a Golli-Frog, they would have had nothing to talk about on QT!

    Geoff Hoon was one of the most ineffective defence secretaries we have had under this lameduck govt.
