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.

Steve Jobs dead.

..Apple's visionary Steve Jobs dead at 56



....SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Steve Jobs, the transcendent Silicon Valley entrepreneur who reinvented the world's computing, music and mobile phone industries and changed the daily habits of millions around the globe, died on Wednesday at the age of 56.

His death after a years-long battle with pancreatic cancer sparked an immediate outpouring of tributes as world leaders, business rivals and fans alike lamented the tragedy of his premature passing and celebrated his monumental achievements.

"The world has lost a visionary. And there may be no greater tribute to Steve's success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented," U.S. President Barack Obama said in a statement.

Aids,

Probably after you.

But best of luck.

You seem to need it.


When this government has sorted out the mess Labour left the NHS in , we will stand more of a chance.

Under Labour you needed luck , it was a lottery.

[ Stand by for Fred to post one of his long reply's , and his pathetic attempt's at political satire ]

Ald - Just ignore the Twxt :O)

Aids.

You and Osborne seem stolid

You need a little Q.E.

Yet again another U-turn by the hollow men of politics.

Plan B perhaps.

As far as the NHS is concerned, you are being conned.

Perhaps a Vet may be allowed to put you down.

Post 12500 questions the Torys' managerial ability, here I agree, they are not in the same league as Labour, no question about Labours ability when they managed to :- Spend their inheritance ; Flood the country with illegal immigrants ; Throw huge amounts of money at the NHS for little return ; Swell the ranks of public sector workers to unsustainable levels ; Create a benefit dependant lifestyle for the lazy, creating a Labour voting base in the process, and put millions of hard working pensioners in poverty.

Then we have good old 'I saved the world' Golden Brown alias Goldilost Brown, remember the Goldilocks era, he did away with boom and bust, replaced it with doom and bust. He raided the pension funds and managed with expert timing to sell our gold at the very bottom, throw in the arrogance of Harriet Harperson, Punchy Prescott and Ed Ballsup the list is endless. Labour do a u-turn, what for, they are always right first time, unless they need your vote when a few dozen 'sorrys' make it all better.

What a pity Labour didn't stop to think about the possibilities of a u-turn or two or twenty, instead of the pig headed rush to destroy our country.
2517

So which do you prefer, old Jodie Marsh (2009) or new Jodie Marsh (2011)?

What an ugly bird.

Er neither!

Geezerbird more like. Looks like a bloke in drag.What a slapper.

Top notch in her day - and not bad now!

give us a bell on 666

skinny

That's not jodie , is it ?

No its Linda Lusardi.

Let's not take up to much space , Fred has got a very long reply to 2517GEORGE last post.

The one that a didn't rate much for look's [ body and face ] was Melinda Messenger.

Sorry , I should have read my last post .... silly me

Agreed. Generally these days, I just skip past them. ;-)

Anyone else agree with Ken Clarke on this one?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2046010/Ken-Clarke-blasts-Theresa-May-laughable-childlike.html

Unfortunately, I do think the Home Secretary, Theresa May dropped a gooley on this one and that means KC is right.

The immigrant concerned did have a girlfriend as well as 'just a cat', which latter was the only single reason she mentioned as being the sole reason the judge made the decision he did.

Not that I'm for or against the judge's decision. It's just that I do think Theresa May is bang out of order and which we can well do without, particularly with topics like this one.

You should get yourself squelched (filtered) by Fred, like me. You are then spared his reactions to your posts because he can't see them.

As some of you may imagine, I find the fact that Fred has (allegedly) squelched me incredibly funny. Very drole.

FWIW, I never squelch anybody, not even Fred.
