My freedom for a horse.....or some such similar missquote

Was it noisy? Bloody balloons ruining my sleep

Apostrophe used to be a giveaway for BBW

5)Scotland didn't qualify

Are you willing to bet Mr M?

...and, excluding the big disco hits, how much soul and funk was played on say Radio 1 or talked about in the NME? When I went to Univesrity in 1981 the soundtrack at the Student Union was very, very white...a lot of people didn't know any James Brown tracks for example

Soul Spectrum I think you'll find it was called.

I think the answer can be found on who the mini belongs to

"Scotland the Brave"...60% gonna vote to stay with the auld Enemy :)

...ok, I'll start. Not taking A.Cole

My favourite version of this...

I am confident we'd hammer Scotland

The Irealndn game was almost like a derby with most players knowing each other; Holland is Holland; Can't remeber the Egypt(?) score was it a draw or win...was it Egypt?

On the plus side, Liverpool fans will be delighted. The way Suarez and Gerrard hooked up for the last goal was impressive!

Wot he said - we've gone from dull drawers to more exciting losers...we are miles behind the top teams, miles. and I am pretty sure Italy and Urugauay aren't in the top teams either....

Ed has made the political calculation that the left hates the tories enough that they will ignore this - it's an attempt to make it sound that Labour are serious about welfare reform (see also Immigration/Defeceit reduction). If you believe the polls, the Conservatives are seen as more competent on this and Defecit reduction, so he has to make some noises to attract those that are worried about Labour on these areas (many) Dave, meanwhile used to be ok being a hug a hoody as he could more or less rely obn the vote of the right wing tories, UKIP has changed that ...but I really think the Tories will be pushing "Vote Farage get Ed". I think David Cameron will be PM in a year's time one way or the other. I bet on this 2 years ago.
