I see the coffee shop underneath the new flats still hasn't appeared!

I believe Keef and Brendan both like Pearl Jam. I used to like them a lot, but only a couple of their songs have really stood the test of time for me.

"Largely comprised" was probably an exaggeration, but I stick by my general point.

I don't see how it's in the public's interest to know their names. It just makes the whole issue more complicated for all concerned.

China, India, Russia, Brazil... almost any African country... corruption is rampant in these places. MPs second home expenses are petty in comparison.

jamster - I don't think it's a strong claim, or an insult to the artists - plenty of talented musicians can't make a living from their music. I was just pointing out that while their artist fees are lower than other fests, the ticket is a similar price.

Run Run Run - The Who

Down In The Tube Station At Midnight - The Jam

I have the "Ring 0" DVD (Jap) - which is a bit disappointing. I don't know if the US version will stick to the same plot or not.

Little Bitch - The Specials

Mockers wisely pointed out the rise of Asian horror films... Thai, Korean, Hong Kong, as well as of course Japanese. Off the top of my head, Dark Water, Tale of 2 sisters, Shutter, Audition, Dumplings are all worth seeing.

Love Actually/Notting Hill/About a Boy/Bridget Jones all make me fucking furious.

TLS - as Hugo said, you've made a good case for NOT disclosing such statistics. You have previously complained at the lack of integration between ethnic groups within the community. And now you are saying that you would like to see crime figures broken down by race, to help people choose which area to live in.

Allow a good hour or so waiting at the bus stop.

Anyone a patient at the Royal Free?

It does seem strange that the management have to hire a consultant to tell them how to cut costs. I am surprised the management are not capable of deciding for themselves. However, it's a bit naive to say "why don't they pay someone else 40k to do the job". Assuming that they genuinely need an experienced senior accountant/consultant - for 40k a year they'd be lucky to get a newly qualified accountant. -

This is exactly what I was wondering. I have absolutely zero interest in drinking in a bar with a "discerning door policy". In fact if you're so picky about who you drink with, why bother leaving the house at all?

A couple of years ago it was pretty popular, but seemed to be quieter recently. From the sounds of things they'd been struggling to make ends meet for a while now due to the pubco arrangement (as per mocker's comment).

Slumdog is a good one too. Like Shawshank... the hero goes through real suffering before emerging victorious. Rollercoaster of emotions, etc, etc.

Hey flapjack, if you like the fest, that's great - and you are obviously not alone! Was just stating my personal opinion. One man's gem is another man's turd. I like the concept and the atmosphere of the festival, but not so much the music. Personally I preferred Bestival, which is still a medium-size festival, but has a better mix of known bands vs smaller acts.

If there is an all-seeing, all-knowing god, then I think he should share his secrets with us. His bandwidth must be incredible.

BN5, I believe you are correct. There is certainly not a "gagging order" on immigration and as SMG says, it is a staple of talk radio. But when some people start talking about immigration, sometimes some rather unpleasant views come to the surface.
