Yes it is supposed to be best album rather than most successful album and most often they are never the same thing, but I think sometimes the panel like to choose the most obscure out of the bunch. Has Dizee had a phenomenal year? passed me by, likewise Antony and the wotsits but then most music does now Top of the Pops isn't on.

Normally it heralds a career in obscurity winning the Mercury. Let's see; Dizee Rascal - hardly a household name; Badly Drawn Boy - ditto; Ms Dynamite; Jonny and the Antonys (or whatever) Where are they now?

I heard that it had someone from the Office in it so your info could well be correct.

What about that geezer who does Saturday Morning Kitchen ahahahahahahaha. What a ding. Not sure if he's even a cook and he tucks his shirt in.

margherita for me please

The nurse in question has been nominated for the Nursing Standard's Patient's Choice Award..

he'd find his overheads went down a bit if he sorted the issue out......

it did seem particularly bad this morning.

Actually that was a rhetorical question. Part of Scotland is part of the island which is known as Great Britain. It also belongs to the United Kingdom and the British Isles. However it is its own country.

Isn't Scotland part of Great Britain?

His last post was 23rd July. It's almost a month. He could just be having a month in Provence on the back of the jingles.

'Cheese-eating surrender monkeys' was coined by Groundskeeper Willie from the Simpsons dontcha know!

Not to mention: telephones television radio pneumatic tyres tarmac macintosh Loving all this fabulous small-minded sterotyping by the way. When do we start on the English stereotyping thread? Actually there wouldn't be much to say other than football hooligans.

anyway, we digress. This thread is about bonny Scotland.

Pleanty of interesting reading regarding the American administration's attitude to the IRA during the 'troubles' to be found on the internet. a recent example

yeah, ok.

I'm with MacroBAN - ban football, or get back to the days when the football hooligans were getting loved up on the terraces. The pills are just not as good these days.

No urban myth, the American administration was funding the IRA terrorism in the name of freedom for years. Hypocritical arses.

Yeah, great reportage photography would occur if the photographer stopped and asked every time.........

I don't want to piss on anyone's chips particularly, but opening an ice-cream parlour? In this country? At the end of summer? Good luck......

Plenty of sheep there Jah. Also a huge wealth of cultural history

Nobody looks good in leggings IMHO..... only acceptable in dancers and under 14s (age)

People like Charl!e obviously!!!!

small tattoos are a waste of time. it looks crap when you see someone and think they've got a dirty mark on their ankle/shoulder and then get closer to realise it's a tattoo! I've got one that is an abstract design of a dancing deer. I got the design from a National Geographic magazine that ran an article on a 4000 yr old priestess found preserved in Siberia. She had the design tattooed on her. I love it as it is unusual and original. It's not the usual colour and is quite big yet discreet. It's very important to get a good artist. Knowing the best place to position a tattoo with the curves of muscle etc is a skill. I always thought Paula Yates's tattoo on her arm was done in the wrong place.
