  1. Yawn (responding to DP's post - but you beat me to it Bob )
  2. I don't pretend to understand the whys and hows of the Somerset levels at all. I do feel very sorry for people who have been so badly affected for four weeks FFS! What I do understand is that the EA has had, and will continue to have, its budget slashed. What I don't understand is why on earth it has taken four weeks (and countless COBRA meetings) to elapse for the government to do anything.
  3. age (of)
  4. Programme called The Restaurant Man on BBC 2
  5. I spotted that and was poised to pun but then decided I didn't want to be mean
  6. Watching the Australian Open Final last Sunday, I was amazed at just how OCD Nadal is.
  7. I think it would be polite and respectful to the woman who is funding our club to: a) Spell her name correctly b) Stop the childish references to her shape / size
  8. Report from the local rag - also suggests Wycombe were denied a very obvious penalty http://www.bucksfreepress.co.uk/sport/10970470.Ainsworth__That_s_the_softest_penalty_I_ve_ever_seen/?ref=var_0
  9. Chairboys 0-1
  10. We were briefly tempted to go tonight (we live in the town) but it's too cold and wet to watch that bunch of chunder - even for the pleasure of seeing them lose.
  11. Shifting sands, Lord T, shifting sands
  12. She just wants her 5 minutes of fame. I feel really sorry for her children
  13. Very childish. Says more about you than about her
  14. Looks more like a wedding ring to me
  15. Any potential CEO worth his / her salt would probably be on a substantial notice period. It therefore makes sense to appoint an interim (who has good working knowledge of the club) until any 'preferred' candidate is in a position to accept an offer. Surely
  16. Robert Peston's take on today's news: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-25832626
  17. Well they could cut the wages of the top echelon for starters!
  18. I wonder when those working to produce this upturn (i.e. workers) will see a benefit in the form of a pay rise? Of course I don't mean bankers or 'bosses' -recently there was a report that the salaries of CEOs of FTSE listed companies increased at 20 times the rate of salary increase of their lowest paid employees. This margin has increased dramatically in recent years. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/top-company-bosses-pay-rising-at-20-times-rate-of-ordinary-workers-8945740.html
