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.

TIM,

Glad you have entered the Mind set and Time set of the IRA and terrorists.

In spite of the actions of some, and even though sometimes it is difficult for some to accept, I think the world is "improving" (Health, education and other expectations), for the majority of society and the world in general.

But we still have a hell of a long way to go and it is "crazy" when governments seem to throwing spikes in the wheels to stop that progress.

The Labour party and their spikes don't remind me.

hilary

Some American called Pip Rider has hacked into your website

A

"Would you like a copy of Borkin's 'The Crime and Punishment of IGFarben' for Christmas?"

No, Thank You.

But if you want to buy a copy for someone else, I use http://www.bookbutler.co.uk/ as a Price Comparison Site.

Hope that helps.

No thank you , I want cheering up. Might buy a Frankie Boyle DVD

Nice to see firm action against Cameron present leader of the PR government.

Vince should be able to lean on the table a little harder.

More bollocks from Fred. Cable is a dead man walking, silly fool.

"A '99' please."

Anyone follow DrSamuelJohnson on Twitter?

Curmudgeonly Treasurer Mister Vincent CABLE would deny a Nuclear Button unto his Navy but does reserve one for HIMSELF

This coalition government doesn't need Wikileaks.
It seems to have set up its own department.

I gave the coalition 18mths.

I wonder if it will last that long.

Could be the short lease a con prime minister has had on No 10.

The coalition is fine Vince Cable will stay a Minister as he could do more damage outside the cabinet than in it. You must expect tensions bewteeen the parties. The Liberals don't like all the Conservative policies, but then Cameron did get the biggest number of seats so it was always going to be mainly his policies plus a few Liberal ones.

Recipe:

Take one large Turkey from Iceland deep fry in Greece, serve with Chile on China plates to the Hungary. Look for the UKIP Brussels sprouts as the other varieties are all definately rotten.

Too big for the plate.

One winter morning a husband and wife were listening to the radio during breakfast. They heard the announcer Say, "We are going to have 8 to 10 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the even-numbered side of the street, so the Snowploughs can get through." So the good wife went out and moved her car.

A week later while they are eating breakfast again, the radio announcer said, "We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the odd-numbered side of the street, so the Snowploughs can get through." The good wife went out and moved her car again.

The next week they are again having breakfast, when the radio announcer says, "We are expecting 12 to 14 inches of snow today. You must park..." Then the electric power went out. The good wife was very upset, and with a worried look on her face she said, "Honey, I don't know what to do. Which side of the street do I need to park on so the Snowploughs can get through?"

With the love and understanding in his voice that all men who are married exhibit, the husband replied, "Why don't you just leave it in the garage this time."

I would put this on the joke thread, problem is it is true.
Humberside Police (who a few years ago employed a resident force poet, to bring through poetry understanding and peace within the force), has sent out hundreds of specially designed Xmas cards to persistent offenders asking them to behave during the Xmas period, no doubt by First Class post, to make sure they are received by the 25th.
Perhaps so that we can all sleep soundly in our beds they should supply persistent burglars with vouchers for Video/CD players and TV's.
Muggers could be given vouchers for items such as watches/ipods and the like.
Druggies a nice little gift wrapped, wrap of coke or heroin.
This could catch on stopping crime in its tracks.
Why limit this to Xmas, perhaps other forces could set up a similar year long scheme, that could eventually become a registered charity.
Of course then we could all contribute to this worthy cause, because as we know Police budgets are being cut, and all Police Forces are having to cut their budgets drastically, making savings wherever they can.
Has anyone told Tim Hollis, Humbersides Chief Countable.

An Irishman's tale.

WHY I AM DEPRESSED


Over five thousand years ago Moses said to the children of Israel , "Pick
up your shovels, mount your asses and camels and I will lead you to the
Promised Land"

Nearly 30 years ago, when Charlie Haughey increased welfare he said "Lay
down your shovels, sit on your asses and light up a Camel, this is the
Promised Land"

Now Brian Cowen has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the
price of Camels and mortgaged the Promised Land!

I was so depressed last night thinking about the Budget, Health Care
Plans, the Economy, the Wars, Lost Jobs, Savings Plans, Food Quality,
Social Welfare Cuts, Retirement Funds, Pension Levies, Property Tax,
Water Charges, College Fees, Eco/Carbon Tax, IHT, Smart Meters, Delivery
Charges, Insurance Policy Levies, the Banks, Property Developers etc.

I called the Samaritans

Got through to a call centre in Pakistan.

I told them I was suicidal.


They got all excited and asked me if I could fly a jumbo jet.

What can we do?


Maybe we should copy the East Germans - plead for reunification with the rest of the UK
