Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Fuel strike over Easter ruled out by union

Strike action over Easter by fuel tanker drivers has been ruled out by the Unite union.

Bradford was a one off. At worst it means....... nothing.

At best it takes a couple of days pressure off the toffs dave and giddeon.

No mention of growlers over the last few days ....... strange. Dont they attract the new VAT.

Melton Mowbray havent complained....... or have they.

And talking of common sense.

Woman seriously burned decanting petrol

A fire service spokesman said: "Her daughter asked her mum for petrol because she had run out. The cooker was on and the fumes ignited."

.

Wasn't George Galloway working for Press TV defending Ahmedinejad and the Iranian regime like ....

Did he really win?

If answer is yes, THEN something is wrong, either democracy or our democracy!!

Another table where we do not appear in the top 10.

A brief history of breast enlargements

It is 50 years since the first breast enlargement using silicone implants. Today it rates as the second-most popular form of cosmetic surgery worldwide, undergone by 1.5 million women in 2010.

If you check sex change, Iran is the first. Total number of sex change in iran is more than the whole Europe put together... and Iran population is 70 Mln only and Islamic country!!! WOW

Reason: After sex change, they can work as Islamic sort of sex business. Get married have sex and divorce immediately (get money for their cost for a week or so, whatever agreed). Then the next person.

The Pasty's Lament

by Evil Knievil aka Simon Caukwell



I am a pastey pasty a-sitting on the shelf
Though warmed by microwaves and handling I’ve failed to attract some pelf.



I was once a must have munchy stuffed in many a gob.
But now I’m taxed like boeuf en croute and left upon the hob.



Will no one make me crumble as I was born to do?
I’ve got a cheesey innard and I’ll make you just go ooooooh.

Simon Cawkwell know's his pasty's

And his Patsy!

Wait till the Sun hears that the EU won't let George Osborne reverse the pasty tax

Now that there is not going to be a Unite strike at least until after Easter, will Georgie Boy, Dithering Dave and Maudica reimburse the "gormless" for their purchasing of Jerry cans.

(Perhaps the cabinet could use them, to get rid of another form of fluid they seem full of.)

-----------------

Have a sneaking admiration for some of Galloway's stances.

However, even if you disagree he points to a public dissatisfaction by the public of the main parties and stimulates some political interest.

I think the total turnout was higher.

Would be interesting, if we had an election now.

A few more U-turns first, please.

An interesting question - Which shows the greatest lack of 'common' sense; Fred's posts or reading Fred's posts?

In your case, probably you reading them.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

It will take me untill Oct. to recover from having to get up an hour earlier every day. It was a real struggle to stay awake to read the 7:00 RNS this morning.

TIM

They told me that will separate the AIM news from the other RNS's, like it use to be .That was over two months ago.
Have to have a word with Ian about it.

THE GOVERNMENT has issued dictate

"Don't fill up your fuel tank.

Do like we do.


Run on Hot Air."

--------

Hear that the Media is trying to get a minister to answer questions, but can't find anyone.

All said to be hiding in the "shires".

I think they said shires.

The crisis was manufactured by the current government to get people to fill up regularly before a strike. That puts a lot of pressure on the union as people are already prepared and don't have empty tanks if there is a strike. Add to that the troops training as tanker drivers and you have a good government strategy. It has resulted in the union calling off a strike at present. If there is a strike now, the public will start filling up more regularly.

Government 1 Unite union 0.

If you remember Maggie Thatcher built up coal stocks for a couple of years prior to the miners strike. That worked as well.

We didn't fill up at all during the panic period as it seemed clear what was happening.

I know this has been covered on the previous page, but the Press are now clamouring for a ministerial resignation because a woman decided to decant some petrol from one container to another in her kitchen whilst cooking the dinner on a gas hob. Is anyone really that stupid? Sadly it seems as though they are and a someone's career may end because of it.
I'm with you Haystack. Cameron's comment was not 'off the cuff' but a strategy remark which worked well.
