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.

Mnamreh,
I hope you did not think I was getting at you specifically, as I wasn't. In fact I count you as one of those whose posts I have enjoyed perusing over the years.
Still thats if for now, as said will look in again in a month or two.
Skinny,
Your last post is a good example of 'not a serious post', but clever and funny, even if it was intended at myself.
regards to both Greek.

Just had a "thought"!
Couldn't we get R Murdock to stand for PM.
Perhaps, we could get our empire back.

Sorry, perhaps he could get his empire back.

It must be nice for Rupert to know he still has friends in high places, even if more and more think the H of P has become a place of ill-repute and the management becoming poorer.
The saying of birds of a feather flock together.
Has Coulson flown the nest?

But it is reassuring that immigration problem has been solved by the national borders becoming impenetrable due insufficient manpower.
I do feel safer, knowing that there are insufficient numbers for proper inspection of those wanting to enter the country.
Cruella and Damian Green were given this information months ago, but have chosen to ignore it.
But of course had the time to reduce manpower.
Madness reigns once again. Willy was right.
"Earlier, airline boss Willie Walsh accused the government of misleading the public over the length of the wait."

Border official speaks out over queues
Leaked figures obtained by the Labour Party reveal that around 880 officers (10%) have been cut from the UK Border Force since 2010.
A further 1,550 officer posts could go by 2014/15, the BBC understands.
Shadow home office minister Yvette Cooper said ministers were being complacent over the level of chaos at Heathrow airport border control.
Immigration Minister Damian Green said 80 extra staff were being drafted in to cut queues, among other measures.
Prime Minister David Cameron, who met Home Secretary Theresa May for an update on the situation on Tuesday morning, told ministers they must admit there is a problem at the BAA-owned airport.
He said, "we've got to grip this," BBC political editor Nick Robinson was told.
The Public and Commercial Services union warned the government was "putting a sticking plaster on a serious injury" by drafting in staff from other areas to work at Heathrow."

Something different.

Just an example, giving blood to help others can't be bad can it?

Point taken, but this was all above board. It prompted a flurry of blood donations and highlighted a need for constant donations, people queued to give blood afterwards. Locally of course, but there is always a need.

Excellent timing as ever!

Standpipes could be needed in the streets next year if England endures another dry winter, the environment secretary has suggested.

Morning Aldwickk,
Just visiting to ask, 'What happened to your alternative thread, as I posted on it, now can't see it anywhere.
If you have taken it off, it might be worth resurrecting it (I posted as soon as I noticed it).
Please reply on this thread, as I will look in till I see said reply.

Unknown assailants have killed at least six people at a protest against Egypt's ruling generals near the defence ministry in Cairo, officials say.
Witnesses described how the attackers set on them at dawn using rocks, clubs, firebombs and firing shotguns.
Up to 100 people were also reportedly injured and are being treated at a field clinic in the Abbasiya district.
