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.

I repeat for Tanks:
"why is it sad when some one like . steals and gets caught it sad for him
when a old lady who has nothing she is a thief .
the only thing he was sorry for was being caught"
Can you put that another way?
"looking to buy a couple of houses in ireland new build .
well forget it they have been built by immigrants and
are rubbish no wonder no one wants to live in them
better off in a caravan"
But what if they build the caravans as well?
