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.

Although it was probably still cheaper in the US at the time . . .

treikiman, seen it before, but very good all the same ! better than paul daniels anyway :)

i hope you lot realise that you are all bonkers !!!

Back from Italy if you haven't done Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii put it on your list well worth a visit.

Mount Vesuvius you get to go right to the lip of the crater.

I want to stand where the picture was taken from.

driver, glad you had a good time in italy. if you liked pompeii you'll love this book



cracking read.

what a shit bank holiday monday. spent the whole day digging and moving about 10 millions tons of clay soil. every time it rained the soil doubled in weight. crap day.

bos
Cheers bos I was thinking of doing a bit of reading up on the whole experience now Im back home.

I prefer Up Pompeii.
OOOhhh-eeerrrrr, No Missus. Don't titter.

definately worth a read , driver. it's about an aqueduct engineer sent to pompeii to find out why the aqua augusta has stopped flowing.

Don't want to spoil the story, but its full of magma, and the engineer ends up a pork scratching.

Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up every two hours?

Hows the currency trading going, Bos.
I've scratched around my office drawers and found 7 UAE Dirhams, $14USD, 46 Mexican Peso, and 3 eurocents. I was going to sell it all and buy Thailand Bhat, but when I phoned the broker he said something very unprofessional to me and slammed the phone down!!
I'll send 'em on to you, if they will help you.

alan, if it's good enough for tesco, it's good enough for me ...... every little helps :)) very nearly ready to start playing with real money instead of monopoly money. i just hope i have the same success cos i've now got tuns o' pretend money in me account.

ho hum , back to work. not that i'm dreading this week or anything, but, i've already started counting down the seconds 'til saturday.

Driver, I slept like a baby last night; I did indeed wake up every two hours - screaming, as it happens - but soon quietened down after a feed of breast milk.

If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?

Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

Driver: "If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?"

It could be a signing!

Hope everyone is back and refreshed after the weekend.
Just been reading the paper and noticed a girl in the navy sued the MOD because she broke her ankle during training. Is it just me or is this another pathetic example of a good law gone wrong. Whats next, during a firefight a soldier twists his ankle and sues because the MOD did not make sure the ground was even before launching the attack?

The worlds gone mad ,,policeman suing for trauma and a gay policeman suing because he can't wear an earing ,says they are discriminating against him because he's gay ,they all need a good kicking .

jimmy make my day.
