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.

Stop talking -ite. So art is , is it. Youd find it hard to find a tougher exam than maths. And dont forget when I took A levels only a certain % were allowed to pass at each grade. Its not open day like these days.

Anyway had enough of this drivel.Off for my tea or should that be evening dinner luvvy.

i suspect gf cannot actually sustain his nonsense argument, which isn't surprising really, as it was always based on preconceived garbage

merely as an aside, art A-level is surprisingly tough and you certainly need a lot of talent to get an A* ..... from there, to get into the likes of St Martins is tougher still

.

It is a bit of a myth that maths is such a difficult A level. Unlike many other A leveld, it is only about whether you understand it. If you understand maths then it has to be one of the easiest exams as there is almost no learning of facts involved. I would rate getting an A* in history as far more demanding.

cynic
My mother's brother got a scholarsip to St Martins at age 13. He went on to be a painter, sculptor and a fairly famous fashion photographer.

Cynic he he...... I stand by it........

And whilst I support people's rights to send their children to private schools, (I believe that's their prerogative) the problem is, in this class-ridden society we live in, it will mean rather unexceptional people continuing to have exceptional education - - and by that token, the country will continue to be managed by unexceptional people, with unexceptional ideas, all masked by the name of the school they attended.

There is nothing exceptional about David Cameron.

NB, the Old Boys net work means that most of these toffs are PLACED and havent filled in a application form or CV in their life. Giddeon gets a placement because his father helped out Henrys son get a placement at his company.

You scratch my back and ill scratch your sons back.

Tally ho, you cant beat a drop of bolly down the bully.

I do believe that Eton does allow some entrants who may not be outstanding, but that is not the case at schools such as Westminster. My son has a lot of friends at Westminster and these kids are outstanding and would come out top against almost anyone.

I can see in spite of their parents, some of the children are doing well.

Same applies for me.

But I think much of the posted above is crap.

Have a good weekend.

you really do talk such preconceived rubbish which i am afraid is just the trotting out of the pre-taught party-line, quite probably as drummed into you on your mother's knee - forgot; she was too busy scrubbing the master's doorstep and blacking the grate

Makes for interesting reading from post 10 onwards. Post 14 !!..... extreme bizare behaviour the further you get into the thread. Posts repeated many times over. Some kind of personality disorder?.

You must be a very sad person to dredge up post from disgruntled rampers from 10 years ago.
LOL

Why not go back further to the very beginnings of ADVFN or earlier to the BB we all used to use before then.

Some may be interested in this programme.

Hays could listen to Ken Clarke views of Cameron's attempted "deceit" over "deficit" and "debit" .

But he probably won't be able to stomach listening.

What interests me is the audience's responses to remarks made. Sometimes responses seem indicative of the mood of the country. ("Of course, not scientific or necessarily representative). 8-)"

The program was quite interesting. The biggest audience reaction was in support of Ken Clarke's comments about the previous Labour government wasting all our money.

Fred yes only confirms what haystack tried to deny happened yesterday.

Mind having said that after looking in at his past over the road and his subsequent 'having to leave' from their, I d be suprised that he can take in the detail of the audio broadcast.

Has he realised yet that within that post I logged down was his last post ever on advfn !!.

The lad seems to have a passion for trying to upset other posters at any cost. Call it whatever you want but to me its twisted and ignorant as many pointed out over the road.

Very bizare behaviour, I have been informed they can get tablets these days for that kind of thing. Amazing how medcine has evolved over the years.

For the time being Ill keep him filtered until somebody informs me hes benefited from therapy.

toddle pip.

don't be a wuss! .... i've never squelched anyone, not even MJ aka MRSI!

Errrr cyners you believe in free speech free economy etc, therefore it folows that I can do what I like.

Believe me I dont like looking at bizzare behaviour like that. I cant understand it and to be honest its something I find strange and puzzling. Why on earth would you deramp shares if you have no financial interests?. In fact its left me at a position where I cannot belief anything he says.

Truly bizzare. Just have a read of the thread and others I have posted up above.

don't get miserable with me sticky, you old tart :-)

"deramping" is a word beloved by many though not by me, but is all too often applied to the views of someone who just does not like the company for whatever reason - like me with ASC for example ...... why does one have to be a holder to express a (contrary) view?

the late but unlamented MJ used to post very pretty pix with generally interesting comment, but it was then a personal choice as to whether or not you followed

What on every stock you post on?. Like I said take time to have a look at the posts over the road. Plenty of threads hes started, just use the search facility.

Right off out for a pint. Man Utd are away today so im taking the cats down to my local for a boozey afternoon.

See ya cyners.

gf
I was posting years after the post you link to. In fact I post almost every day under a different username.
