All you bleedin' techies, are there no English grads? ;-) the struldbrugs

Heart of Glass - Blondie

Whatcha gonna do about it - The Small Faces

Do Nothing - The Specials

...was this bit deliberate irony?

Post Christmas ennui

Act Like you Know - Fat Larry's Band

it's an anatomical thing ;-)

He like to throw his teddy out the pram, bears grudges, remembers slights, believes in loyalty to him....I'm surprised you're surprised by any of this.

MM - I may be accidentally scaremongering and don't Have a clue of the position but take advice on tax implications in terms of if you ever sell your house as it's possible a pro-rata CGT may be applied to the flats value if you've used it commercially and claimed tax relief on it. As I said don't have a clue but you know how keen THEY are to get their hands on YOUR money :) so worth checking out.

We had a nice manager last year

6200

Agreed petulance, single-mindenness, hardness, etc etc I suspect that collectively that's what's behind most of the great Managers. Doesn't seem an especially nice person, doesn't have to be.

I think the no bag policy is great when it's in force by big brother I will be doing all my local shopping by car so not have to lug crap about

Goodbye T'Jane - Slade

Yeah, but recycling one's bags, whilst otherwise engaging in modern consumerist lifestyles is hardly us all trying to land the plane is it?

I'd be dishing out champagne, you'd be making us all put our lifebelts on

Hi again...didn't take long

I do, because it's pretty easy and/or forced on me. Things like composting I do 'cos I quite like gardening and this is part of it. These gestures have bugger all effect on the potential environmantal catastrophe approaching so, having light bulbs that are crap and not getting freebags at shops so that politicians, retailers, Brussells and smug greenlites can say they are doing their bit whilst they jet off round the world, eat out of seasons food at home and in restaurants etc gets on my tits. It's futile gesture, I'd rather go down with the band playing.

Midnight Train to Georgia - Glady Knight & the Pips

I'm gonna side with Emerson on this, trad rivalries still feel very important..upto a point. They are part of football culture - the irrational, illogical, tribal bit which still has a place, however it's a thin line between the initial silliness and eventual malevolance that they led to in the past.

Rip it up and start again - Orange Juice

To be fair to G&B they are only branding themselves approriately to the liberal greenlites of SE22. Many of the big grocery retailers are just doing this to save money under the convenient excuse of 'greenery'. As all realists know - sell the car, don't buy ANYTHING that's air freighted and never fly again and save energy for all but neccessities, so for eg stopp p1ssing about online but in the meantime recycling old bags and turning the lights off once a year for an hour can delude the deluded

Don't be so sensitive EC - I winked

HNY Lady Muck. Are there plenty of public toilet facilities nearby?
