  1. I hard the that rumour about Messi too but the same source told me Sol Campbell was going back to Arsenal....ha! I'm cancelling my milk delivery.
  2. ........and you're from Manchester of course!
  3. I received this text message: The Pope gets attacked. The Catholic Church is in shame over decades of child abuse. Rangers are top of the league and Gerry Adams declared incest in his family. Carlsberg don't usually do Christmas for Prods..........but they've managed it this year.
  4. Geeks......advice please. My son is often complaining about his PING when playing his online games. I understand this to be broadband speed related. We have the Virgin 20mb deal. I was wondering if any of you have speed related issues with your broadband? What is the best broadband service available? I'd have thought Virgin being cable would be. We've spoken to them a few times and have had a new modem and router from them in recent months. Apart from his PC we use 2 other laptops regularly. Is the best/only option to upgrade to their 50mb service? I find the current service fine but don't do online gaming hence I'm asking you gamers for advice. Thanks in advance for any help/information
  5. I guess lots of people welcoming him back didn't help nor did the numerous posts he made in a short period of time. Bound to make the guards of the forum suspicious.

  7. I watched this movie based on a boy who is obsessed with cricket and a girl. It was set in the 50's. The name of the movie comes from this expression the boys often used to say to each other. I have no idea if it's completely made up or did it actually exist back then. Anyone know?
  8. I can't predict what the clowns will do. That's the problem with predictions.....we are dealing with clowns who have the biggest say in our future. Nearly forgot.......the polar ice cap will melt.
  9. I trust in Mowbray.......I hope I'm right!
  10. Ditto Dundee United. I simply applied your logic which you now seem to contradict.
  11. I don't use my webcam either but I was able to find it by clicking on the icon on the bottom left of your screen (the circular microsoft ball). This lists various programmes you have but at the bottom in the search facility type 'webcam' and see if it finds it. It worked for me.
  12. Presumably Spurs 9-1 win over Wigan shows how poor the Premier league is.
  13. Surely anyone taking drugs into China has got to be mad? Sounds like a good enough defence to me.
  14. This probably saved my life when I was a skinny 15 year old. Had Sunday dinner when the doorbell rang. It was the captain of the town's 1st and only XV. They were one short. I agreed to play. Left wing as I was left footed and fast but not much else. Arrive at the nearby pitch(cow dung and all) to find that all of my team-mates were still in varying degrees of drunkenness having been at a party the night before. We were playing Edenderry whose reputation for fair play was only a rumour. Anyway my sights were set on getting through the 80 minutes uninjured.This was going well for a while as a winger rarely saw the ball at that level even with sober team-mates. However my defining moment was soon to occur for which my family have never allowed me forget in the many intervening years. A high ball was heading in my direction. I weighed up the situation in a flash. Catch it and I would be engulfed by the Edenderry pack. Fractured ribs and worse crossed my mind. The ball appeared to slowly descend out of the sky. I ran to meet it. Like I said what happened in the next few seconds has never been forgotten. Some have described my actions as sheer cowardice but I prefer the version where I acted in a manner that was way before my time. I accelerate towards the descending ball, my mind was made up, instead of doing the orthodox thing and catch it, I volley it with my sturdy left foot back from whence it came. Of course I chase it but such was the distance it went I didn't even get the chance to tackle the recipient! The game ended. We lost 44-0, but I had survived. Footnote: After many years of taunting my tactic achieved the status of vindication in my eyes when a couple of years ago I saw a French international winger do the same thing in a HC match. That was worth waiting for....nearly.
  15. As would any tsunameye..............you can see it coming, it makes a lot of noise.........and then it's gone.
  16. You don't need a webcam. I use it for speaking only. You have got a headset with microphone I presume?
  17. This may be interesting tonight Stuffed up the link but it's at 7pm
  18. I was sorry to see that the cathedral in my home town was burnt to a shell in the early hours of yesterday. It was probably the only building on note in the town and goes back to 1840. The Guards are investigating the cause. It will be intersting to find out if it was arson. Edited to add the strange case of the bishop saying the last mass there referred in his sermon to a convent which was burned down in 1642! Was it a case of the bishop in the cathedral with the matches? (played Cluedo last night)
  19. Is it free on line if you have all of the above?
  20. You're not helping Daisy........
  21. I think Skyplayer is an online facility......you have access on the internet.Am I right Simon?
  22. Madame, how can you possibly know what my intake of alcohol has been this evening........apart from the sherry, wine and whiskey?
  23. Lady M....why a pea? I eat them....
  24. Lady M......if I can be so familiar. Her in the Palace.....you know? I have spent all bl**dy day in the kitchen preparing. My only solace was a bottle of sherry....followed by some wine and of course to keep my health up a drop of uisce beatha..........The old rashers and bacon will wait until tomorrow.
