  1. Whoohoo! http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/front_page/8356391.stm
  2. I shall be bowing out as well I?m afraid. Found out last night that my better half has a rare Saturday evening this weekend where she?s not on call. So I?m going to take her out to dinner and get her pissed.
  3. Is that rhyming slang for boring?

Green also means, new, inexperience and un-ripened. Autumn is therefore ?green winter? or ?winter green? if you insist on being all poetic and shit. It has all the potential to be winter but hasn?t yet dipped its wick as it were. The metaphor then stretches further into the realms of horticulture with the ball symbolising the seed of the season?s decline which is planted in autumn and ripens to fruition into winter. Here the writer is cleverly juxtaposing the common imagery of life blossoming in the summer with his intentional reversal of the concept. He then goes on to mention ?patinates? (which I think were Victorian, ladies under things) and ?taught skin? which just goes to show that like most authors he is using his art as a thinly veiled indulgence of his own perversions and is probably also a communist.
  5. Here?s a tip to people of all colours: Get over it and stop obsessing about race. It only exposes you as being mean spirited and looking to have a go at someone who you perceive as ?other? to you. EDIT: To be a little less confrontational.
  6. East Enders Theme - Simon May
  7. It?s quite easy to determine where it came from, especially if there are only houses behind you and it couldn?t have come from the street. Just determine the general direction and then eliminate the houses that don?t have male children. Well at least that?s how I got caught for it when I was a boy.
  8. This world isn't ready for me yet.
  9. Bravo! Very well done indeed.
  10. I understand the library can be difficult. Here?s is some background reading you may want to do before your next visit. The Dewey Decimal System: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dewey_decimal_system Human reproduction: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_reproduction
  11. Must haves: - breasts Would likes: - laryngitis
  12. This sort of thing works much better if it doesn?t need to be explained.
  13. Kill 2 birds with one stone and just go naked. You may want to take an overcoat for the journey though.
  14. The Pogues and the Kinks both spring to mind. They both a few candidates. I like Rainy Night in Soho. It always reminds me of London.
  15. You're all idiots.* *except for the few of you who aren't. EDTI: because I cant fucking spel this morning.
  16. My phone has Tetris.
  17. Weapons of Mass Tuesday Destruction?
  18. Is this ?copy of cod? some sort of new synthetically synthesised fish? Well I think it can only be a good thing what with the fish stocks running low.
  19. Well skippy there slimline.
  20. So who is the best player of the last decade? Article: http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/blog/2009/nov/10/best-cricketer-of-past-10-years Poll: http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/poll/2009/nov/10/best-cricketer-decade-spin-poll
  21. What can we do though? Invade the Muslim world? Oh, erm?
  22. I think The Hoff is there at the moment.
  23. That?s what I used to do to my mum?s gin when I was a teenager and needed to procure some of it for a Friday night by the swings.
  24. Yep it?s difficult to judge another country with such a vastly different society and approach to government. And who are we to say anyway? As quids says the very premise of many of the laws and social norms in Saudi Arabia would by default be criminal in our society. But the reverse is true a well.
  25. This raises an interesting point. Round-dodging is a fun game that everyone in the group can play BUT it can only be played with very, very good mates. Normally it should be reserved for those friends who you have grown up with or spent so much time in pubs with that your collective beer money is historically so intertwined that even a few tons here and there are going to go pretty much unnoticed over the years. So sometimes you get lumped with the ?50 round in the expensive bar where everyone orders the cocktails and your sniggering mate helps you carry the drinks knowing full well that he just paid ?15 in the previous pub for everyone?s pints of bitter. Other times you get distracted by a very important phone call when you?re both at the bar buying drinks for 7 people and can?t return until he has got them all to the table. It can be more fun than darts.
