  1. If you're earning £30k a year and don't get a pay rise like most public sector employees then a 4% inflation rate will mean you're losing £1200 per year or £100 a month. Don't tell me inflation means fuck all
  2. There's an absolutely brilliant travel book based in Santa Marta, the town next to that hotel The Fruit Palace by Charles Nicholl Proper eye opener
  3. Yorkshire's great, lived there for 6 years but we all know it is very much the wrong side of the Pennines As the late great Jim Morrison said, the west is the best
  4. There is absolutely no way on Earth that I'll be watching that It'll be a big hit in Wales, Oz and NZ
  5. I spent a week or so in Barranquilla in the late 90s Crazy place... wouldn't really recommend it but it was certainly interesting
  6. I can't emphasise enough how much I love Big Virg Robbo isn't too bad, either
  7. Years ago some woman drove into the back of me. Same thing... my car was worthless and wasn't badly damaged so I told her to forget it. She then started saying how it was all my fault, I should have been more careful etc so told her to get the fuck out of it, rang the Police and the Insurance. My car was a write off and I got £450 for it. I'd got it for £200 a month earlier. The woman got done by her Insurance as it turned out she'd had a dog in the front seat and she was paying attention to that rather than the road. She might have been done by the Police as well Sheer stupidity
  8. Walked from the Thames Barrier to Tower Bridge along the Thames Path a few weeks ago. Some cracking pubs, great views of Canary Wharf, Greenwich etc. Walked through some interesting places to get there by the Tate & Lyle factory and Woolwich... glad it was a Sunday morning
  9. Well, I sort of agree but then I think there;s no way that's going to happen with this shitstain of a Government we have Then I think the referendum was lost 5 years ago and this argument is still going on and there's a reason for that... even with the best Govt in the world making the most of deliberately cutting yourself off from the largest market in the world is going to be incredibly hard
  10. I think it's absolutely nailed on that the EU has been a force for peace and stability in Europe since it's inception I don't think the UK leaving the EU is going to make it more likely we will go to war with an EU member although I wouldn't put it past Johnson playing with gunboats in the Channel or around Gib as he's a stupid cunt
  11. Yeah, that's interesting, seeing as they spend approx £3 Billion on subsidising the farmers This Government fucks up everything it touches but one thing it is very efficient at is funnelling huge amounts of public cash to their cronies and backers But Africa...
  12. In the meantime the Johnson Govt have just slashed the international aid budget so it looks like Brexiteers don't give a fuck about sub Saharan Africa or farm subsidies unless they own a farm, of course
  13. Dr's are people at the end of the day. They're highly trained and generally highly intelligent but it's a stressful fucking intense job that they do. Some are very good, some not so good and quite a few burnt out. They suffer from the same things that the rest of us do and they have good days and bad days like we all do. As others have said, if you're not happy with your service you make a nuisance of yourself until you get what you're after
  14. I have weird ears and nothing ever fits so it's over ear ones for me which is cool
  15. Cricket did for all my fingers Rugby for the ribs and the surgeon fractured my knee joint during keyhole surgery
  16. All my fingers, 2 knuckles and several hand bones 2 ribs Right knee joint The fingers were painful being put back into position as they were all dislocated... even with plenty of laughing gas The ribs took 6 weeks to heal and laughing/sneezing was agony With the knee I was in a cast for a few months and on heavy duty pain killers plus self medication so hardly noticed
  17. She asked me yesterday if Wallabies were real animals Yeah, of course they are, I said, why would you not think they are? I just thought they were in cartoons, she said She got her degree from Oxford
  18. All over the interwebs about Rafa turning blue I still love him but hope he loses every game apart from the Manc cunts and the chavs
  19. All the best, Gentlemen May you live long and be very happy together Twins separated at birth, it's so romantic
