    "not full" and "empty" mean different things.

    Nope, jokes like those should have a double meaning. "All the people who think you are funny" could work, but "full of people who think you're funny" doesn't work, because "full" isn't true.

    Maybe ask someone to vet your jokes in future.

    Did you make that one yourself Russell? Because it doesn't make sense, the room isn't full so the joke falls on its arse.

    Anyway, if this means you'll be on CUK less, congratulations!

    So, yet again, you are talking out of your arse.

    Conngrats on the new gig though
    Aye calm down, I was talking about the folks posting about London Bank cuts.

    As far as I am aware there are only three real Scottish posters.

    1) Minestrone
    2) Cliphead
    3) TestMangler.

    And between them they own every other Scottish sockie of which I believe there are 175 active ones at the last count.
