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.

Tell the Philippian, Polish Nurses and Asian doctors to go home.

Tell all of Enoch's West Indian bus drivers and their offspring to go home.

Don't listen to Fred , Skinny

Just tell the West Indian drug dealers , the Romanian begger's and the Albanian
gangsters to name a few , to go home.


Fred , most of Enoch's West Indian bus drivers are dead by now , and their off spring are retired muggers and pimps. Do try to keep up.

The Free Syrian Army used rockets and machine-guns, it said, in its highest-profile attack since protests began.

Martin Johnson quits as England Rugby Union manager

England team manager Martin Johnson has stood down after three-and-a-half years in the role.

Johnson and director of elite rugby Rob Andrew will hold a press conference at 1600 GMT.

Perhaps, Wales will recruit him as forward coach.

My daughter has just informed me that Tesco are doing a litre of Baileys for 9.85, saving about a tenner. Frankly I can't stand the stuff, but it might be of use to some!

Bought a litre of Grants whisky from MRW this morning for 16 only went in for a paper :O)

Might help the unemployed to take their mind off the soaring economy.

Sorry Roaring economy.

==========================

What interests me is the number in the work force is said to be reducing.

At the same time pensioners or over 65s are being "forced", due to reduce income, into trying to, or actually returning to work.

A large number of school leavers, are fearful of applying for "further education", because of the Education fees, which have been raised by this sensitive coalition's actions. But they are being encouraged to look for employment and are being damned if they can't find a job which are not there for them in reality.

Some of those who are doing the damning having retired in their fifties, or earlier.

==================

In the 70's there was a so called "Brain Drain" out of the UK. This time around there will be a paucity of "Brain" in the colander.

============

It seems to me that Bertrand Russell's paper, "In Praise of Idleness", written in 1932 is even more pertinent now than then.

Skinny,

Baileys is one of my favorite drinks, so after your info will be putting a couple of bottles aside for Xmas.

Cheers Greek.

Similar to Baileys, under 100 rand and worth it just for the nice'n'furry bottle.
