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.

Cynic.
Just won an end game.
It seems that you are becoming more and more detached from reality as is Wavey Davey and his henchmen.
But must admit you surprise me that "you" run a profit-share scheme.
My "father's" pit had a similar scheme in the 1940's. It was profitable.
In the early 60s worked with a company who had a 3 monthly bonus scheme.
First time I was offered a job and told I could come back in two years time, if I wished to.
It was profitable.

shows how out of touch you are from the real world of today, merely forever harking back to "the good old days"
clearly you have reverted to the old "fos fred"

Every week theres a pie competition to see who can eat the most pies but since theres only one person in the town he normally wins. It has also been noted that turnips seem to act as some form of currency in takeways but the mathematics behind this system have never been found out by outsiders.

Bury, Burnley and Bolton are all north of Watford and thus deemed to be one and the same .... Barnsley is a cousin once removed!

The people of Burnley , talentless at almost every aspect of life , actually are great at composing music. It is a well known fact that Burnley is the real birthplace of The Proclaimers, They deny this , but we all know it to be true. Mc'ing is all the rage in Burnley.. Well that's what they call it, really the people who MC in Burnley are ugly twats, who think they are going to become STARS, in other words stay on the social all their lives.

The people of Burnley, however mentally challenged, still have a religion. It is a primitive source of Christianity, with Emmerdale character Zak Dingle as their Messiah. They choose one man (who generally has more than 30 IQ points) every day for sacrifice to Dingle. Worship takes place each weekday in the Church of Wilkinson and Home Bargains...
Some, decreed heathens by the Church of the Dingles, don't believe The Great Lord Dingle is theirMessiah. They in fact believe that Lord Dingle is only a prophet, sent down from the heavens by the true Messiah, it is believed that is the Messiah actually is the man with a beard who works at Gamestation, who's name actually is 'Beard'. He does not deny. He knows it I talked to him Swellhead !!
There is a contrasting religion called "The Clampets" with Granny as their Guru and Jethro Bodine as their educational figure. This is a Hillbilly belief thought to originate fom Barley or Colne.
The Messiah has also got a disciple who sits outside McDonalds asking people if they are okay and trying to sell them big issues that they actually dont need.
The people of Burnley often show their respects to the Messiah by going to a Public House on a daily basis from 11am - 2pm when they are generally open, these public houses are usually within walking distance from their house, although, some dare to travel a little further and visit the ones in town.

I thought it was Georgie Porgie, but he must be helping out at the Home Office presentation of the U-bend turn on Visa Bonds.
Can't await the next pronouncement of the tory "think tank", but would suggest a few transplants first.

fred - as i'm bored with saying and you're bored with hearing, as a committed non-voter, your incessant whining and whingeing and sniping carries little credibility let alone value
