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.

Your bang on Execline .

I am not sure about Romanians, but I know several Albanians. Two in particular are at good universities here.

I don't get these polls....this morning the BBC had Labour 1% ahead of the Tories .....now the blues are 6% ahead of the reds...???

The polls have quite a bit of variation due to general randomness and different methodologies. Some are face to face, some internet and some are telephone. Each has its problems with the sample selection process. The internet is potentially the most dodgy as the poll sample is self selecting to some extent. It is a bit like polls on Sky News. Their sample is based on viewers of the program and those that can be bothered to vote. This means that the ones with the strongest views tend to join in.

The recent polls are complicated by the Easter holidays as the schools only went back today and many people have been away. It is not clear which party in the polls benefits from people on holiday. The results could be skewed as a result.

Did you say Poles were shoplifters or shop fitters ?

goldfinger has just had one of his posts moderated on advfn for being abusive. No change there.

i think he said shirtlifters :-)

One of my mother-in-law's favourite words.

58556 - dozo - it's a self-moderated thread so your comment is about as accurate as some of the tripe posted here

btw, it was (unsurprisingly) DB4 who was banished (moderated), so makes your observation even more silly
