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.

Nice fall in unemployment!

Thats wrong.

The main figure is unemployment as gone up from 7.1% to 7.2%.

Like Ive always maintained tories are misleading people with statistics.

Not only that but the TREND is set to go higher.

Wonder what CARNEY is going to do about this, another U turn like Giddeon.

Wage inflation proves today yesterdays inflation figures were fiddled.

Sorry to have missed you this morning. I was up very early to get to the hospital for a cataract appointment. I must say what a pleasant experience it was to be treated by the NHS. Nice staff, efficient, hardly any waiting time. Now it will be new lenses for me in a few weeks. I only had to wait a week for my appointment after referral by optician. As I have an adtigmatsm, I have to wait about six weeks to be operated on. If I had normal eyesight I would have been done in three weeks. There are three nice restaurants in the hospital, excellent coffee at 90p.

Looks like Ive got to you Hays.

Was it a raw nerve in the eye?.


Good link for you here bud.......

How much did the car park cost you Haystack, more than the coffee?

I went by tube to the Whittington. Couldn't drive there as they put drops in your eyes.

Haze,

Did you have to slip them bob or two or were they trying out new techniques?

The number of people waiting for NHS hospital treatment has risen by more than 300,000 under the coalition, amid concern that NHS rationing is forcing patients to wait longer for operations.

NHS data shows that 2.88 million people in England were waiting for consultant-led treatment in December 2013, up by 310,000 or 12% on May 2010.

"It's worrying that the number of extra people waiting is that high. That 310,000 is a huge number of people who are waiting for what is quite often life-changing surgery," said Katherine Murphy, chief executive of the Patients Association.

Don't take too much notice of the Guardian, especially articles written by activists.

No, must be difficult for you to read what was in front of your nose.


Could be the reason for you being so out of touch!

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL.

Embarrassing eh?

Breaking news
Tony Blair gave advice to newspaper executive Rebekah Brooks on handling the phone-hacking scandal six days before her arrest, a court has heard.
Jurors heard Mrs Brooks spoke to the former prime minister and passed on what he had said to James Murdoch, then News International executive chairman.
In an email, she said Mr Blair had said he was "available" to her, James and Rupert Murdoch as an "unofficial adviser", the Old Bailey heard.

Hays I have a friend who as problems with his eyes, hes a drunkard who shoots his mouth off too much and ends up getting punched on the nose.

Do you have any nasal problems????????

Hays I dont believe your post 36875.

Brooks just telling porkies as usual.

Probably prompted by Camoron.

Haze,

Tony Blair and Cameron were covered at birth with the same form of slime.

If you look back to the Blair time you will see I had little "love" for the him or many of his policies. (I wouldn't bother to look.)

Both are insults to politics.

Mind "Money is No Object" for "Our Boys" takes the biscuit!


Hope Manuel Marmaduke stays above High Waters.

Destiny Miliband: dramatic Labour leader takes the internet by storm



That kagool and Westminister waffle disguises a brooding Boromir of man (maybe)




Felicity Morse Author Biography


Tuesday 18 February 2014


When Ed Miliband visited the floods in Wraysbury, little could residents have anticipated the dramatic figure who would arrive on their deluged doorsteps.

With brooding gaze, hands on hips and legs astride, this wasn’t the waffling Labour leader that so often graces TV screens.

No indeed.

Instead, with chin aloft and nostrils flaring with purpose, it was Destiny Miliband the residents glimpsed from beneath that furrowed brow.

His mystical expression, paired with such a stance, could almost have been borrowed from Boromir, such was its reflective determination. Wearing his kagool like a superhero's cape, his head cocked thoughtfully, this was a man who was on a mission.
