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.

Some unfair referees in Olympic.
Beach volleyball, Russia went out as referee decided a ball was in after initially saying that it was out. The mark on the floor showed it was completely in.

Last night boxing, Iranian guy who was ahead and was playing great disqualified by the referee. BBC commentator was astonished by the decision and thought the other opponent should be disqualified as he was turning around (180 degree) and putting himself (his head) in danger.

Is anyone looking at these decisions? It was promised, at the start of the game, that the referees will be fair.

Good to see a few remember the good ol' Commodore 64. What a great machine at the

the odd games review. Good times... :)

Delaying the austerity programme by three years would put 200,000 people back into work and raise economic growth by 239bn pounds over a decade, according to one of the UK’s leading think tanks. The National Institute of Economic and Social Research (NIESR) published the analysis as it slashed its growth forecast for this year from 0 per cent to a contraction of 0.5 per cent and warned that the recovery would not begin in earnest until 2014. Had the government delayed austerity this year, the economy would have grown 1.2 per cent, NIESR estimated. The research will pile more pressure on the Government to respond to the double-dip recession with a new growth strategy. Last month, the International Monetary Fund said the Chancellor would have to react in next March’s Budget if the economy has failed to bounce back by then, according to The Telegraph. “
