I don't mind him being miserable if he wins!

This place is going to the dogs Hal.

Does anyone know whether Murray won or not?

I'm reminded of swallows..........

A great pity that previous governments of all persuasions have not bothered to invest north sea oil revenues in to future technologies. The wave energy (bobbing ducks) was quoted to cost ten times the real costs so we would by the American nuclear system just as we are all over again. Why is it sooo corrupt in this land?

Magpie wrote:- The revival in British Brewing has been pretty dramatic. It also makes an interesting model for others. The UK superbrewers such as Bass or Scottish and Newcastle were bought out by multinationals, and basically ignored the bitter market. This in turn led to smaller independents and mid size brewers stepping in. The likes of Greene King, Adnams, Shephard Neame, Fullers have all benefitted, while beneath them there is healthy growth of micro breweries. There also seems to be a level of cooperation and goodwill in the industry between companies. Finally, Labour introduced tax breaks to smaller brewers in the early noughties which has certainly helped. We are now at the stage where we have thriving localised and regional producers, alongside a handful of national beers, without too much concentration. Now they just have to get the heathen foreigners to like real beer and start exporting the stuff, and we then have a case study of a genuine grass roots industrial recovery in the UK. I really did not know that Cadbury a well known Quaker family, manufactured beers? If they are not brewers then isn't this off topic?

The outcome is Siousxiesue is now using the launderette for the washing, and paper plates to eat off, thus rendering the said drain superfluous to requirements. Sorted.

and all down to 'quantative easement' it sounds as if there has been a large portion of syrup of figs spread across the land to all the gullible believers of the chancellor. Tipping large quantities of banknotes into the economy does not mean the recession has gone away, it means the government is hiding behind a few bushells of it in order to get re-elected. No doubt we shall rush off and vote the ne'erdowells back in very shortly, like leamings before the leap.

As most of what blocks outside drains is leaves, I would want to remove them to avoid possible blockages further down the pipe. As Ladymuck has said stick your arm down remove leaves and replace the drain cover. Give your arm a warm bath as you have earned it. Then stick some gin and tonic in a glass with a little ice put your feet up as you have saved the family budget around ?60 from your diy. Good for you.

So he's a grumpy young man..........no just a miserable jock who hasn't had his two doubles fix yet.

I have never rated cadbury products, but the Bournville estate in Birmingham which was created for the cadbury employees, has been for the best part of a century, a model award winning estate.

I second that northlondoner, I prefer to see children playing in the parks. Children cannot savage you.

As long as you can read........

Puncture complaints in Barry rd seemed to increase around the time the tyre bay at Turners was opened, only a cynic would. Put them together in the same sentence. Purely coincidental they must have done market research, realized there is a higher proportion of punctures in the vicinity, so we must open a tyre bay, how fortunate that business seems to be flattening out.

Speak to the neighbours to see if they use it for any reason, as it is almost certainly from them.

The guy that sprayed him was wearing a greyish duffle coat which had a hood. He didn't get a chance to look properly at the third individual. I shall keep an eye open for said creep(s) A horrible and terrifying experience for your guy, but that the three strolled off as if it was nothing.......it is sooo frustrating and frightening of course.

Anyone shouting 'Al Qaeda' loudly on the bus, suggests to me that he was well aware of what he was doing, and full marks to KidK for tackling the creep, is what I say. If Vinceayre is a troll, I find him a droll troll, because the idea that the nutter got offered more benefits and a bigger house was funny.

A notice stating do not leave any valuables in your pockets due to a recent spate of thefts and extra vigilance is needed until we find and remove the culprit(s). Remember the two women arguing, it was probably over the unequal shares.

Impressed!

Men are crap at godfathering, as we never remember birthdays, nor the godchilds name age and address. I am just not equipped to undertake the responsibility, as I am a lazy selfish bum, and I also feel it is a particularly useless and pointless role! Other than that of course I wouldn't hesitate.
