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.

DID THE QE2 USED TO BE A SHIP THERE HIS TWO AIDS AND FOOD AID GOT 1987 IN MY UK NHS NUMBER ODD WITH 42 TURNED INTO 24 6 TIMES TABLE WITH SOME HOLY WALL SIGNED WFP

LIKE CAPE INTO APE C FOR C@@t

Yes. Really? Really? Cape into ape? Hmmm?

I should go back to the NHS, mate, and complain.

*backs off slowly and quietly*

Anyone know the blonde on the left?

.

Surely they are both the same bird.

The one on the left is the girl you chat up at a party, then take to bed when you have had a few too many.
The one on the right is the one you wake up sober lying next to.

Come, on you know you have been there.

:-) Actually why am I smiling!

Greek

I suppose the one on the right is 'a 32 pinter'.

And, talking of 'drinks and women', the one on the left may well belong to a group of women on Facebook apparently, who, when stating what their favourite drink is, use coded messages:

What do you drink?

tequila: I'm a single woman
rum: I'm a touch and go woman
champagne: I'm an engaged woman
redbull: I'm a woman in a relationship
beer: I'm a married woman
vodka: I'm the "other one"
sprite: I'm a woman that can't find the right man
whisky: I'm a single woman but with friends that won't stop partying
liquor: I'm a woman that wishes she was single.
gin: I'm a woman that wants to get married

And there's apparently more secret messages, which are to do with a lady's Facebook status too.......

eg,

Q. Where do you put your handbag when you get home?

Answers are usually one of the following:

I like it on the couch.
I like it on the kitchen worktop.
I like it on the dresser.
Etc, etc.

I think we should start one for blokes.

Execline,

Whats the code mean if a girl says she drinks Guinness.

Greek,
A question for you and a chance to appear on the centre of the stage!
As a previous solid upright law enforcement officer, how would you proceed in a dubious case with a background such as Liam Fox seems to be in at present?

He admits to breaking the recognised rules of office, even to lack of judgment.

Would you prosecute him, or simply relieve him of office?

If I admitted manipulating, or ignoring the known rules, for potential gain either in the here and now, or at a later date, would you smile on me, or investigate of attempt to have me prosecuted.

=========

Perhaps, this is this going to be, another case of one rule for them, and one for us?

-------
The slippery slope of "power".

Good try Fred , but Greekman won't take the bait.

I hope Liam Fox made a few pennies from teaming up with his friend. Maybe they could get a few bribes for defense contracts. What is the point of being in power if you can't make a bob or two. I am sure that labour ministers made a bit, now it is the turn of the Liberals and Conservatives.

Blair is a good example. There has never been a Prime Minister who has left office and made so much money. These ex Labour government people certainly know how to dip their beaks.

Hays,

Apologies, but I thought you aimed for higher standards of probity.

I always thought Blair was a tory mole, he has certainly live up to some of the seemingly required membership standards.

I think after the last Labour government we have all got used to lower public standards.

Do you mean the MPs expenses' frauds?

It would seem some MPs have already excused themselves and Cameron seems to be condoning, or blinking, when the same standards are being reintroduced by members of his own government.

Favours on the "old boys" network, often stinks.

But I suppose it is another exhibition of one rule for one person and a different rule for another.

Seems the right to break the law when it is convenient for oneself, but outrage when another does likewise.


Will this government be more corrupt than the last.

I watch with interest.

Funny how the majority of MPs in fraud cases was easily amongst the Labour gang.

Rivers of ice: Vanishing glaciers

Stunning images from high in the Himalayas - showing the extent by which many glaciers have shrunk in the past 80 years or so - have gone on display at the Royal Geographical Society in central London.

Is this finally proof the Yeti exists?

Abominable Snowman 'close to being caught' after coarse hair is found in remote Russian cave

Hays,

Check the amounts of "expenses" all parties got away with.

When will Osborne go?

Interesting to watch how Dave deals with the dilemma he is in.

Does he want his "friends" in front of him, or behind him.

===========

But he will support him as long as he needs him.
