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.

Talking of Luddites, my son's Economics teacher is so left wing that she won't use self check outs in the supermarket as it does someone out of a job. She refused to watch The King's Speech because it portrayed royalty.

What about the workers who make the self checkouts, doesn't she want a strong manufacturing industry ?

Happy New Year one and all.

A man and woman were having a quiet, romantic dinner in a fine restaurant, gazing lovingly at each other and holding hands.

Their waitress, taking another order at a table a few steps away, suddenly noticed the man slowly sliding down his chair and under the table, but the woman acted unconcerned. The waitress watched as the man slid all the way down his chair and out of sight under the table.

Still, the woman appeared calm and unruffled, apparently unaware her dining companion had disappeared.

The waitress went over to the table and said to the woman, "Pardon me, ma'am, but I think your husband just slid under the table."

The woman calmly looked up at her and said, "No, he didn't ........

He just walked in the door."

One of my relatives is getting married towards the end of 2012 and have booked a venue. They have guests coming from abroad who have booked flights to come plus hotels. The venue contacted them a few weeks ago and asked them if they could move the date of the venue as there was someone famous who wanted that date. They didn't want to change though. A short time later they were contacted again and an offer was made. They would get £150,000 paid off their mortgage, ther wedding would be free at the venue and all the flights and hotel accomodation would be paid for. They moved the date. I can't say who it was, but it was a footballer.

Heard the story, its DB

How did they know they had a mortgage and how big ?

Dreamcatcher

Is David Beckham getting married again ?

Did i say it was David Beckham ? :-))))))))))))))))))))

I only live 2 miles from Beckingham palace.

You didn't say anything , who's DB

I dont know :-))))))))))))) who is he?

Initials not DB

Hays,

The daughter of one of one of my wife's friends was in the same position and similar deal earlier this year,

This was for a wedding event at one of the golfing venues and the initials were similar.

Apparently they got paid.

I thought at the time it was a scam and surprised at the result.

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

Been booking up venues for the last year.





Problem now is that it is a New Year.
