  1. Since earlier this year, countries within the EU are capped at ?50 data charge per day http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/bills/article-2166414/Mobile-roaming-rate-caps-EU-Sunday-Europe.html
  2. Sense Of Humour Failure Alert
  3. Aha. I met Molly there on Sunday She speaks the truth. Sunday lunch was very, very good indeed
  4. "Virgins all round, and he's still grumpy." I?d be grumpy ? that?s a LOT of reassurance and guidance A handful of experienced beauties would be far better
  5. I think Mick may have been referring to Youghal-boy here
  6. Here is how mark twain dealt with burglars http://bit.ly/zTzFEQ
  7. Don't know what you mean Ahem
  8. A tearjerker and no mistake http://elcomics.tumblr.com/
  9. but wasn't the steak halal? Which means the blood you need for a good steak had been drained?
  10. oh definitely! and why not use Spotify to check stuff out for free before you buy?
  11. Johnny Cash version is indeed magnificent
  12. Have a listen to 3 tracks (which coincidentally span most of his career) Mercy Seat (whoah!) Into My Arms (sniff) More News From Nowhere (slinky) Imagine most of his material fits somewhere in that triangle and you should have an idea One of my favourites however, is ?Nobody?s Baby Now? The Best of will see you right as an Introduction Kicking against the Pricks was my introduction back in the 80s ? a covers collection
  13. a letter dated NEXT Thursday? The future is arguing with teh past about an application that has been withdrawn already... this place is getting nuttier
  14. and you can't get a good steak
  15. "I just hope you lovely people of the EDF never go through such a terrible experience. " It's entirely possible/probable that many of us have experienced far worse
  16. "You don't go to a restaurant to have dogs pissing on or near " true, true... but I'm willing to bet the owners didn't get up that morning with a view to it happening either. If there was multiple reportings of dodgy doggy behaviour then by all means - but unpleasant as this experience was.... sometimes stuff happens. Can't we shrug things off or does everything have to be reported? People take their kids out all the time - and with the best will in the world sometimes those kids do somethings others don't like in restaurants. If restaurants started barring and reporting those parents who would be spared? Sometimes we need to just rub along
  17. Liking the work done so far - looking forward to seeing the new place "proper"
  18. and welcome to the latest troll E.. oops better not be seen to be bullying anyone
  19. I love Na pura. Great food and genuinely lovely people. (they just can't sort out home delivery)
  20. Hang on... So someone you think is a made up alter ego, can be bullied?? This is bizarre
  21. I haven't said I'm "just having fun" nor I do I think I'm bantering Given how much abuse UDT gives out I'm pretty shocked people see him/her as a victim
  22. therein lies the rub Atticus - you wouldn't be comfortable, and you have said so Equally you have enough nous to read what you have read and see that it isn't all gold ergo, it's highly unlikely anyone is going to start a thread about you, because you aren't acting like an eejit But UDT is very aggressive in his/her general tone - he/she is an aggressor, not a victim bringing up "banter" is interesting, recalling as it does Keys and Gray. They too claimed they were bullied and victimised after being sacked, but it was their own behaviour wot done it
  23. atticus - you aren't realy addressing my points Being bullied needs an imbalance of power - go read UDT's threads and the people upset by him/her - I don't see any imbalance of power It's the sheer number and content of their posts which has triggered this thread (which, as I say, seems almost affectionate compared to the threads UDT is actually involved in) But I'm open to being convinced otherwise - I wouldn't want to be part of bullying anyone
  24. unless Fred Bloggs IS.. y'know... Forget this thread for a moment and go read the various threads UDT plays a part in - he/she is clearly upsetting a lot of people, it's obvious to anyone reading them (not saying I always disagree with him/her either btw) Compared to the vitriol on those threads, this particular one is almost affectionate Also, with facebook you can see who Fred Bloggs is and he becomes a target. UDT is ensconsed safely in anonymity so no-one can "bully" them in real life. UDt could say "hey hold off guys - it's a bit much" - to which one could reasonably expect UDT to hold back a little bit on his general posting style - but he/she seems to relish the attention it causes so no, I can't see the bullying here
  25. really Atticus? You think my point a few posts back has no merit? If someone started a "seanmacgabhann/straferjack" thread and took the mick out of me, that would be bullying?
