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.

the word bomb is best avoided in today's twitchy atmosphere!

Can I use damp squib?

that shouldn't alarm the security boys too much :-)

What about "flash in the pan"!

As a matter of interest, how many times have you looked over your shoulder to-day?

There is something to be said for being a sheep farmer in Snowdonia or Outer Hebrides.

I am waiting for the security card to be played by Cameron and his boyos.

Mind his hand would be 1h ,4d, 6c, 2 c, 8c, and he would think he has a good hand.

"flash in the pan"
confess i haven't heard that one for many a long day - and yes, i do know its derivation

Hazyone,

A must read to brighten your day:


The Conservatives are heading for another humiliating defeat at Ukip’s hands in the crucial Rochester and Strood by-election, according to a survey by ComRes.


It shows that Nigel Farage’s party has opened a 13-point lead over the Tories ahead of the contest on 20 November, which was triggered by Mark Reckless', the former Tory MP for the Kent constituency, defection to Ukip. He looks set to become Ukip’s second elected MP.

The findings are a huge setback for David Cameron, who is desperate to avoid a second by-election disaster following Douglas Carswell’s victory in Clacton this month. Rochester and Strood is seen as the most important by-election for many years. If the Tories lose, some of their MPs may try to oust Mr Cameron by forcing a party leadership contest. But Cameron allies doubt his critics would split the party six months before a general election.

Excuses can be submitted on foolscap paper!

Napoleon,

To help you.

Have a look at CLLN, DC. IAG, TCG, OML.

I am long in them with tight following full stops.

Unless somebody shoots a plane down over the M.E they should go well.

Forward fundamentals seems to support charts and I may be a little early.

DYOH

i have CLLN in my sipp, TCG privately and sipp
don't know the other ones but i'll have a look

many thanks, and i bet you never thought to hear THAT from me :-)

I will note it!

TCG has lost its mojo. The Harriet Green effect has worn off for the time being. I sold out when the share price was 154p. Good luck if you still hold, I don't like to see anyone lose money - except shorters.

Bet a lot of people would like to put a tight stop on Fred , mind his a bit of a dead loss already

Never mind the bricks, there seem to be some slates missing from his roof.

stop on Fred

are you quite sure you mean ON and not IN?

QT 2nite from Liverpool should be interesting if we get the right mix on the panel, the Labour panelist on QT have been very bad for while now., the Lib/dem's have mostly been PC wet's. UKIP panelist have been very good so far.

Have you noticed how many of the young Labour and Lib/dems are Blair/clegg clones with the hand movements and facial expressions, wonder how much training it took at HQ ?

DB4

Slate missing lol

Anybody know were Stan is ?

Hazyone,

I thought you would be to busy to post here as you were carrying handbags at Rochester and preparing excuses.

You must wake up in the morning feeling sick.

Why not give Cameron a helping hand in Europe, he needs your support! He is being laughed at there.

They are saying the place for cheap politics is back in the UK.

Perhaps this is what you are diverting attention from.

They can't even elect a candidate as a fall guy and yet pump in a £100000 of other peoples' money.

Not fit to run a market stall.

Ps,

Put you rain coat on and check the bookies' odds on you friends. You must have one if it only your dog. (Poor sod.)
