Well it's rude to wear sunglasses or cover your face while speaking to someone (basic manners as I'm sure you know), If i went to live in another country, I would at least try to not disrespect their customs or traditions...........

These kind of places are snapped up in an instant, I'd be very surprised if you get anything but good luck none the less............

I've got a Sony one kicking about....... PM me if you need it....

Ian McShane should have been a megastar. He's absolutely brilliant in "Sexy Beast".

Is he not Lovejoy?

What's a scullet? Is that like, bald on top with mullet-like properties around the sides ?(

A skillet is a saucepan, no? so a scullet must be a saucepan on a skull........ Nice hat?

Iknow this is gonna sound dumb but reading I think..... I couldn't learn any new classical guitar tunes without being able to read the music, no t'interweb or books.... that would be depressing me thinks..... On the up side though, I'd probably get a guide dog and I've always wanted a dog.....

If something has been on the telly, then they probably wouldn't object to you recording it if you were out, say..... so whats the difference in downloading it? It's just handy so you dont have to set the video surely? I thought it was only stuff that hadn't been on the telly that was illegal.......

Or just download it...... Do people buy DVD's anymore.... lol

I have been both permed and mulleted over the years..... The perm was great because your hair was so dry from the chemicals you only had to wash it once a week, and if it looked shit, you just sprayed it with water and it looked fab yet again...... I was only 5 or 6 when I had the mullet (everyone had them back in 198*) I think mullets for girls are a bit emo for me these days ......

So the moorings can even corrupt hamster youth! Hmmmmm

The only telly I watch really is Lost & Prison break which my mate keith kindly downloads from t'interweb for me. I agree that lost, although addictive, can get a little bit dull, they try too hard to make it so you don't have a scooby whats going on! PB though, is fantastic! I'd recommend it to anybody........I frequently have to pause the comp, and go make masel a cuppa to calm down because it's just so exciting

Was sleeping when I had a gander. Put ma hands in for a stroke with no consequences..... Are you sure that it just doesn't like you?

I saw Stab & Hannah taking it home on the bus the other night - It's mega cute & fluffy........ Awwwww

too many egos and not enough honest showmanship...

Never a truer word said, but thats the minority screwing it up for the rest of us....

I'd go see it.... I could even do a few classical Guitar pieces if you were looking for performers

Oh' date=' ta very much! And what did I receive through the post today? A parcel of noise? Some ISJ's, perhaps? A bundle of programmes? Nope, a letter telling me what my basic rate of State Pension will be when I reach retirement age! Thanks a bunch for that one, you bastards. Made my fucking day, that did.

Anyway, White Horse for 8, then get to Fortress Weep about half 11, try out that girl-bait aftershave I got today.[/quote']

Where the fuck is White horse? Have the kindly pub landlords been changing their premises names again to confuse poor confused peeps like me?

Edit:-Scap that, I've remembered that it's in Woodside, I'm thick sorry!

It's his birthday today which means oodles of booze, and a school-night Fortress visit for ahbody who kens him - Hurrah

Hope your havin a good one and I guess we'll see ya later

You want to contact the pub next door (Siberia I think they call it nowadays) they are owned by the same folk/same management. The number I have is 645328 but I haven't used it for about a year. Hope that helps!....

The blue ones were originally a 'limited edition' gimmick. I'm surprised they lasted as long

Awww Thanx everybody - I only just found this post a month late - oops!

Just got this story on an e-mail! Doesn't sound like a boring job but I sure as hell wouldn't want it!

Rob is a commercial saturation diver for Global Divers in Louisiana. He performs underwater repairs on offshore drilling rigs. Below is an E-mail he sent to his sister. She then sent it to a radio station in Ft. Wayne, Indiana, who was sponsoring a worst job experience contest. Needless to say, she won.

Hi Cheryl,

Just another note from your bottom-dwelling brother. Last week I had a bad day at the office. I know you've been feeling down lately at work, so I thought I would share my dilemma with you to make you realize it's not so bad after all. Before I can tell you what happened to me, I first must bore you with a few technicalities of my job. As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the sea. I wear a suit to the office. It's a wetsuit. This time of year the water is quite cool.

So what we do to keep warm is this: We have a diesel-powered industrial water heater. This $20,000 piece of equipment sucks the water out of the sea, heats it to a delightful temperature, then pumps it down to the diver through a garden hose which is taped to the air hose. Now this sounds like a darn good plan, and I've used it several times with no complaints.

What I do, when I get to the bottom and start working, is take the hose and stuff it down the back of my wetsuit. This floods my whole suit with warm water. It's like working in a Jacuzzi. Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my bum started to itch. So, of course, I scratched it. This only made things worse. Within a few seconds my bum started to burn! I pulled the hose out from my back, but the damage was done. In agony I realized what had happened. The hot water machine had sucked up a jellyfish and pumped it into my suit.

Now, since I don't have any hair on my back, the jellyfish couldn't stick to it. However, the crack of my bum was not as fortunate. When I scratched what I thought was an itch, I was actually grinding the jellyfish into the crack of my bum. I informed the dive supervisor of my dilemma over the communicator. His instructions were unclear due to the fact that he, along with five other divers, were all laughing hysterically. Needless to say I aborted the dive.

I was instructed to make three agonizing in-water decompression stops totalling thirty-five minutes before I could reach the surface to begin my chamber dry decompression. When I arrived at the surface, I was wearing nothing but my brass helmet. As I climbed out of the water, the medic, with tears of laughter running down his face, handed me a tube of cream and told me to rub it on my bum as soon as I got in the chamber. The cream put the fire out, but I couldn't poo for two days because my bum was swollen shut.

So, next time you're having a bad day at work, think about how much worse it would be if you had a jellyfish shoved up your arse. Now repeat to yourself, I love my job, I love my job, I love my job." Now whenever you have a bad day, ask yourself, is this a jellyfish Bad day?

May you NEVER have a jellyfish bad day!!!!!

Look at the lines round the Top Gear track that The Stig uses - they are totally different to the lines that the F1 drivers' date=' past or present use, so I reckon that it's unlikely to be an F1 driver. Maybe rally or touring car driver?[/quote']

I've thought it was Damon for a while..... You are right though on retrespect, probably not an F1 driver........ Has anyone else also noticed how short the stig is? I dont think he can be taller than about 5'3" Maybe thats a clue? o_O

he used to go up and play onstage in his SOCKS. that's right' date=' his SOCKS.

Nothing wrong with playing in your socks. I've got a pair of boots I always wear to gigs because they kinda transmit my bass noises up my legs and I can hear myself better, without drowning ahbody out. I forgot my bass boots a couple of times and ended up playing barefoot - just as good. I bet thats what he was doing....... All you other bassists out there should try it.... muchos better good!

Sadly enough I linked it in my head to myspace too

Myspace owns me. Myspace owns us all.

Except clever peeps like me who don't do myspace..... One of my bands is on myspace though apparently

I am making a log of the life of the sculptures' date=' I hope people leaf it alone to "die naturally". But, if people twig where it is, I might be barking mad, and have to branch out to another forest.[/quote']

The funniest post ever Ta for brightening up ma day!
