  3. Why We Like The British - FROM BRITISH NEWSPAPERS 1) Commenting on a complaint from a Mr. Arthur Purdey about a large gas bill, a spokesman for North West Gas said, "We agree it was rather high for the time of year. It's possible Mr. Purdey has been charged for the gas used up during the explosion that destroyed his house." (The Daily Telegraph) 2) Police reveal that a woman arrested for shoplifting had a whole salami in her underwear. When asked why, she said it was because she was missing her Italian boyfriend. (The Manchester Evening News) 3) Irish police are being handicapped in a search for a stolen van, because they cannot issue a description. It's a Special Branch vehicle and they don't want the public to know what it looks like. (The Guardian) 4) A young girl who was blown out to sea on a set of inflatable teeth was rescued by a man on an inflatable lobster. A coast guard spokesman commented, "This sort of thing is all too common". (The Times) 5) At the height of the gale, the harbourmaster radioed a coastguard and asked him to estimate the wind speed. He replied he was sorry, but he didn't have a gauge. However, if it was any help, the wind had just blown his Land Rover off the cliff. (Aberdeen Evening Express) 6) Mrs. Irene Graham of Thorpe Avenue, Boscombe, delighted the audience with her reminiscence of the German prisoner of war who was sent each week to do her garden. He was repatriated at the end of 1945, she recalled. "He'd always seemed a nice friendly chap, but when the crocuses came up in the middle of our lawn in February 1946, they spelt out 'Heil Hitler.'" (Bournemouth Evening Echo) A list of actual announcements that London Tube train drivers have made to their passengers... 1) "Ladies and Gentlemen, I do apologize for the delay to your service. I know you're all dying to get home, unless, of course, you happen to be married to my ex-wife, in which case you'll want to cross over to the Westbound and go in the opposite direction." 2) "Your delay this evening is caused by the line controller suffering from E & B syndrome: not knowing his elbow from his backside. I'll let you know any further information as soon as I'm given any." 3) "Do you want the good news first or the bad news? The good news is that last Friday was my birthday and I hit the town and had a great time. The bad news is that there is a points failure somewhere between Stratford and East Ham, which means we probably won't reach our destination." 4) "Ladies and gentlemen, we apologize for the delay, but there is a security alert at Victoria station and we are therefore stuck here for the foreseeable future, so let's take our minds off it and pass some time together. All together now.... 'Ten green bottles, hanging on a wall.....'." 5) "We are now travelling through Baker Street... As you can see, Baker Street is closed. It would have been nice if they had actually told me, so I could tell you earlier, but no, they don't think about things like that". 6) "Beggars are operating on this train. Please do NOT encourage these professional beggars. If you have any spare change, please give it to a registered charity. Failing that, give it to me." 7) During an extremely hot rush hour on the Central Line, the driver announced in a West Indian drawl: "Step right this way for the sauna, ladies and gentleman... unfortunately, towels are not provided." 8) "Let the passengers off the train FIRST!" (Pause .) "Oh go on then, stuff yourselves in like sardines, see if I care - I'm going home...." 9) "Please allow the doors to close. Try not to confuse this with 'Please hold the doors open.' The two are distinct and separate instructions." 10) "Please note that the beeping noise coming from the doors means that the doors are about to close. It does not mean throw yourself or your bags into the doors." 11) "We can't move off because some idiot has their hand stuck in the door." 12) "To the gentleman wearing the long grey coat trying to get on the second carriage - what part of 'stand clear of the doors' don't you understand?" 13) "Please move all baggage away from the doors." (Pause..) "Please move ALL belongings away from the doors." (Pause...) "This is a personal message to the man in the brown suit wearing glasses at the rear of the train: Put the pie down, Four-eyes, and move your bl**dy golf clubs away from the door before I come down there and shove them up your a**e sideways!" 14) "May I remind all passengers that there is strictly no smoking allowed on any part of the Underground. However, if you are smoking a joint, it's only fair that you pass it round the rest of the carriage."
  4. I agree too, except for Download, T in the Park.. those worth it. Perhaps the new AECC will start pulling up the likes of Tool, SOAD, etc? One can but hope. xx
  5. Nice to see ya here mate. Sorry missed your two pass gigs, Alley was ill, but keep me informed on your others for future.
  6. Hey closer to the time, if you need any help with leaflets, getting the gig promo'd just pm me and I'll give it a top shot. Line up is ace should pull in a good huge crowd, as charity gigs tend to do. What charity shall it be? xx
  7. OMG how funny was that link:woohoo: Ace, Hog, just ace. xx
  8. Thats the way. 8) Music is a personal thing. I personally like the new song and frankly feel that the lyrics, and the sound tie in well and really hit at something deep. I don't think its Americanized (trust me I think I would know that:gringo: ) I've heard a lot of music, and each to their own. It would be great if people learned constructive critique, but hey thats the sign of the times. to be honest the general consensus elsewhere on this song is that its gonna be a hit. but that's my honest opinion xxxx
  9. too true. I use to foster many moons ago and mainly teens, and the little ones did appear to adjust much better. Sometimes the best solutions aren't very nice, but sometimes if there is no natural family to take the wee one in, care is the only option. 8)
  10. You got a good point specially with the paper talking about that wee lass who was killed by her mother's boyfriend and then the mother put her in a suitcase and threw her into the canal (Inverness). Both mother and her partner were into drugs big time and it appears that loads of people let this little girl down. So, yea good point.... perhaps if your a junkie : A. you shouldn't be allowed to have in your possession harmful drugs B. or your children if your persistence shows you are not getting off the drugs, should be safely in care. I guess in an ideal world both would happen, but the world ain't ideal, is it??(
  11. yea totally with ya on this. Why can't it be drunk down at the clinic/chemist is beyond me. Something just not right when its allowed to be taken home:swearing:
