  1. I thought we would have a present youth culture something like "Back to the Future II" 80s ++ Where's the air boards.
  2. Thameslink is usually reliable - but has got more crowded recently too.

  4. I don't take mine of my shoulder to be honest. People probably think I have the crown jewels.

The David Tennant / Billie Piper / Darlik > / Cybermen thing was cool though. Maybe they want a cuddly, friendly Doctor. There is a bit of Malcolm Tucker going on now, so maybe fits with a more cynical generation.
  6.

  7. Cold snap coming. See you next year fruit flies. Now it's just that mouse.
  8. I like the new Dr He's bad tempered and rude. The storylines aren't really the point IMHO
  9. Tardis is alive and can change and grow - to reflect the Doctor - I thought :)
  10. Blairite versus Brownite wasn't it - mattered at the time :) Milliband needs to get some sexy socialism going (c.f. Alex Salmond) Note: actually the parody said Sexy Socialism - the real Salmond replied with Sexy SocialDemocracy !!!
  11. Mickelson should have just stripped of like those other two :) There will be a bit of a post mortem on the USA side I guess.
  12. to Donaldson "Has it sank in" "No, I'm still drunk"
  13. Cars have beeped me in the past for stopping at a red. I wonder sometimes if there are a group of people immune from prosecution who do as they want.
  14. Would think loads will. It's nice watching it live on TV - and an excuse to spend all day in the pub :) Help-Ma-Boab Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Not the same "watching" it on radio.

  15. Started now - Europeans wearing Scottish type jerseys today Good atmosphere
  16. The official site say 500 million edit: I note the word potential there :) The FIFA WC was 700 above ? http://www.rydercup.com/europe/news/standard-life-investments-named-first-ryder-cup-worldwide-partner
  17. Some people just don't see themselves as old and in need of help.

IA long time back, I'm sure BR hired taxis for customers if a train was cancelled. Gave them an incentive not to cancel willy nilly.

  20. Hell met another very angry person soon - it takes a lot of self control not to get angry in return. so well done the guys reporting this so far.
  21. Huw Edwards had a good referendum on BBC I thought
  22. Sky called it just after Kay Burley got flattened by Sturgeon and her minders. Sky got no interview from her that I saw.

  24. I've seen a few people helping carry in Peckham Rye - usually someone jumps in before i can offer. Its the queues to the gates at peak times which are now bad - sometimes there's only a single gate.. Obviously should be an extra gate for hipsters - a hip one - maybe on the "I Love Peckham" theme. :)
  25. But theres a picture of Dave next to a little girl and a Shetland Pony He also went down the pub with some of the locals apparently, Has he ever drunk with you ? So there must be a secret oil field :) numbers Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > The Clair oil field was discovered in the 70s, so > nothing new. Now up for sale.
