No, indeed. As I say though, I can't see past United, or Chelsea (unfortunately). I genuinely hope City & Spurs do push it, and of course the pool, as it would make it interesting. I see 'Arry claims Cole wanted to come to Spurs, and that they will challenge for the title this season.

Or that they were so shocked by some nutter having a go at them on the street, that they were rendered speechless.

Nice to see tghe pool are still much better odds than Spurs. 2 horse race as usual though.

Or maybe she just wished that everyone would do one, and let her get on wiuth her life.

I hope she took a deep drag, and blew it right in your face. Maybe her baby will have problems, then you can follow her down the street chucking rotten vegetables at her whilst yelling "I told you so" at the top of your (healthy) lungs. That'll teach her.

I always liked Houllier. If you remember when Rafa first came, Carragher was openly quite critical in post match interviews, saying they didn't know what he wanted them to do with the zonal marking and all that. May mean nothing, but could be there was an issue there.

Tasty treats, with poison in them.

Lets see if you get any bites red devil...

Not sure about that Mick, he was egular for England and Chelsea before injury messed it up for him. I said when it was announced he was leaving Chelsea that I'd love him to come to Liverpool, but doubted we'd get him. I'm made up he's coming, and hope it's the sort of signing that will convince others to stay.

Been in the band for one or two. Not a fan though.

Whitby is ace. Anyway, when I went to uni, I remember meeting this nice lad from Yorkshire, he was gay as a daffodil, so ha had some issues with the locals back home. Anyway, he asked me one day, had I been brought up to hate northerners?. I said "what?". He said, he'd actually been told all his life that southerners were horrible. I said that to be honest, I'd never given them any thought. That in itself may not be a good thing, but I thought it was an interesting conversaiton, which has stayed with me. I do get annoyed when my scouse friends tell me that I must have it so easy because I live down here in London. All of them have afforded to buy their own houses. I probably never will.

Good news Sally81 :)-D (obviously you can't drink at te mo, but I'll have one for you)

Lydsay Davis' books about Didius Falco, a Roman private eye of sorts. Good fun, apparently taking care to be historically accurate, so quite interesting, and funny in a very dry humoured way.

I used to get that train every day (before the Overground opened), and if you want to be at LB by 8:15-30, I think you'll be okay, as that will mean getting a train about 7:50, and they're nowhere near as packed at that time as they are half hour later. Plus the Overground will have taken a fair few people off of the LB trains.

The way I read BB1OO's point is that the state needs to clearly define what the state's role is, so that parents are clear on what they can expect from the state. Not that the state needs to define the parent's role.

My wife was pretty much told to stop breastfeeding and feed our daughter uop as she was too light. She was literally scared they'd call social services on us or something. When she went to a GP, she was told the baby was perfectly healthy, and advised to report the HV. I know that there a\re plenty of very good HV's out there, but all too often people have had bad experiences, so as Fuschia suggests, a rebranding could be what you need. Best of luck.

Episode of Six feet under, started with a cot death. Cheers guys.

Yes, I hate to say it, but if I was a TA, I'd be scared for my job, same as the community police officers (or whatever the title is). The Gvmt will say they have not cut any teachers or police officers, but basically, they will be cutting the invaluable support that the teachers need, not to mention the kids in the classrooms.

Cool, the old Nature / Nurture Debate.

Harlan Coben's thrillers are good page turners. Nice easy reading.

I don't know, I've given over my last fiver to a particularly god sob story, and I've stood and watched my friend give a tenner to a bloke that I didn't believe at all.
