  1. I usually watch footie at home but tempted to go to the actress and the huge screen for tomorrows man u v arsenal game. Anyone else?
  2. without making a case for either argument (I don't fully agree with all the points made against graduate tax and the governments solution - both have merits as far as they go) but I do wonder if the graduate tax was introduced if we would see the same level of protest
  3. the rest of us need to be warned LM Then again my first Barry Barry run was a lager/sambuca combo - never again
  4. what PeckhamRose said - fantastic pics
  5. Aaah I see. Sorry for being presumptuous I cant recall if they were released at all on ps3. Valves orange box was compromised so maybe not. I'll check it out tho
  6. Download the demos. Both are on the xbox live service.
  7. Yes ? and just as soon as you stop pointing that gun at me under the table I might answer again ;-)
  8. I must have missed it the first time (Brenda's come back I mean) I didn't mean to suggest such arguments were other people's fault either btw - I get sucked in and become part of the noise amd isntead of people agreeing on common ground (I agree with you on what's wrong now for the most part, as well as a favourable report on this government, with some qualifications) before talking about alternatives it becomes part polarised shouting match (Although I would argue that the tone of your early posts in the last couple of days suggest the image of a man who's ridden across the Dakota plains for days without a drink, barging into a saloon and looking for a fight)
  9. I dropped out of this when Brendan made be laugh out loud with his David Copperfield come-back I'm also trying really hard to not get dragged into debates which just go round and round - particularly with people who have spent too much time/not enough time at airports
  10. I?ve heard similar about Harms Way so I?ll have a peek at that at some point ? possible 11am ish session there if you are free Piers The last few puzzles in Limbo play quite differently to the early stuff but then as you realise you have come to the end ? so, so good. A real surprise in 2010 Captain S ? I never quite got the last couple of Resi games ? 5 in particular I was looking forward to (first on this gen) but it didn?t feel right to me so I never bought into them. For me, zombie multiplayer fun is ALL about the Left for Dead games Keef: If I hadn?t played the 3 games you have just bought and still had them ahead of me I?d be soo excited. Danger is that one of them won?t grab you in comparison to the other two, which would be a shame. You lucky bugger tho
  11. wasn't it the big state that stepped in and prevented the whole economic house of cards from collapsing? economics isn't a natural law like physics btw - it's a tool we use
  12. not the lounge people - if you can't help go play in there
  13. Except countries are not like households and historicallly require and built empires on debt. A country which ?lived within it?s means? is effectlvely stagnant and dead in the water Debt in itself isn?t bad ? what has the markets spooked is they invented ways of packaging debt so no-one knew who owes what ? then when that blows up in their face they get spooked and start looking at small countries and start charging them exhorbatant rates, crippling them in the most undemocratic fashion imaginable, creating further turmoil. I don?t have an answer, nobody does, but just saying debt is bad and markets need to be assuaged will save us seems overly simplistic, even if it?s technically true
  14. Quids ? I?m not as sure as you this will be the most contentious bill this government will pass But if you believe that when it next comes to legislation which might be unpopular, the scale of the protests won?t have some effect on ministers thoughts then I would genuinely be surprised That doesn?t mean unpopular legislation is necessarily wrong of course, but there will be many many instances in this governments life where they might wish they had listened a bit more. This lot have a tendancy to behave as if they were given a huge mandate
  15. but how does a violent protest on the streets of London indicate anything Violent protests in London have been going on for centuries
  16. The rent-a-mob aggro crowd don't do anyone any favours 'tis true. But the police tactics aso manage to hack a lot of peaceful protestors off too Also worth noting that for all the "it only loses them public support" rhetoric, the fact remains that all of this is deeply unsettling for the government and is more likely to cause some form of change than, oooh I dunno, a million people peacefully protesting against the Iraq war
  17. where and when did that start? And where is it going?
  18. Compared to your video comment??!
  19. I wasn't quoting the daily fekkin mail earlier http://bit.ly/fMd6R6
  20. ok Mr Gets His Names Right ;-)
  21. eh? when did he say that?
  22. summat about kettling tomorrow apparently. or maybe just kettles
  23. oh and Brenda - he's over 10k as well
  24. I think the phrase is?. August
  25. Welcome aboard the 10,000 club Jah
