As a mark of respect, I am going to walk to work tomorrow. It's what he would have wanted

Inshoring is the latest trend. Because of lead times (due to sea freight) companies can't be flexible with their manufacturing. Production is always two months behind demand. Either there is not enough stock and it takes too long to get, or you receive your stock when demand drops off. This is why Hornby transferred production back to the UK. 1 in 6 companies who outsourced to China are currently inshoring. http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/7e736f90-539e-11e3-9250-00144feabdc0.html#axzz2vYvoBhQm http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/british-companies-are-reshoring-jobs-cameron-will-tell-davos-9081358.html

I met Carlton in the corporate seats at West Ham a couple of years ago on valentine's day. He was a gentleman.

Not a great fan of this technology. How many times does it happen in a season in all games? Compare that to how many bad offside decisions there are which either lead to a goal or prevent a good goal scoring opportunity. If there is to be technology, it should be to cover the offside rule.

Mind you, telling his mum that he was in a relationship with another man was easy, compared to diving, which let's face it, is far more gay

It's a joke.

Tories borrow more in 3 years than Labour borrowed in 13.
Johnny Bognor replied to pap's topic in The Lounge
So you're advocating massive massive cuts way beyond what is being done by condem or being proposed by labour? Don't you remember Gordon Brown's scorched earth policy to leave the nation with spirralling debts knowing that when Labour lost the election, the new party would be saddled with it? And to think they used to call the **** prudent LMFAO -

There is a big 'if' here. If you don't account for inflation, then the statement is true. However, you have to account for inflation to compare like for like. http://blogs.spectator.co.uk/coffeehouse/2013/11/the-tories-have-piled-on-more-debt-than-labour/ It's like saying "tonight I spent more in Sainsbury's than the entire cost of the Roman invasion of Britain, if you don't take inflation into account". -

BTF that bloke is a complete nutjob. Do you honestly think shareholders would sanction 49% pay rises? I know in cloud cuckoo land, the firefighters are now after a 40% rise (and there was me thinking that their strike was a stand on principle and protecting pensions), but in the real world, it doesn't happen. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/jobs/9556254/FTSE-100-director-pay-rises-ease.html

LOL Sluts furious at UKIP member comparison Promiscuous women everywhere have spoken of their anger at being compared to a room full of UKIP activists. With UKIP member Godfrey Bloom calling a room full of UKIP women ‘sluts’, genuine sluts have said it draws a dangerous parallel for people who know them. Self-proclaimed slut Sharon Williams told us, “I can live with being called names such a slattern, harlot, and strumpet – but being likened to a UKIP support is absolutely taking it too far.” “What if someone assumes that just because I’m a slut that I also want Johnny Foreigner to go back where he came from?” “Already I’ve had one woman look down her nose at me because she thought I believed immigration was weakening the country’s white bloodline.” “When she found out that actually I just have a very welcoming vagina, she was very apologetic.” UKIP sluts Sluts across the country have called for an official apology from Godfrey Bloom, insisting that the harm done to their reputations by his comparison could prove irreparable. As one explained, “Who will want to have sex with us if they think we’re a closet racist little-Englander a bit too afraid to join the BNP.” Williams went on, “Just because I am a willing sexual partner for just about anyone who shows an interest in me, does not mean I don’t care about being a decent person to people from different countries.” “I have no interest in being the acceptable face of racism in this country. Just the slutty one.”

Been over doing it mate, so thought I would stay in and savour the result Good point, but I think comparisons against the corresponding fixtures is a better (not perfect, but better) comparison to just "the first 5 games" last year considering our difficult start They are in the order in which they were played last season. Just makes it easier to compare like for like at a glance.

2012 West Brom (A) Lost 0-2 Liverpool (A) Lost 0-1 Sunderland (H) Lost 0-1 Norwich (A) Drew 0-0 West Ham (H) Drew 1-1 Points = 2 Goals for = 1 Goals Against = 5 2013 West Brom (A) Won 1-0 Liverpool (A) Won 1-0 Sunderland (H) Drew 1-1 Norwich (A) Lost 0-1 West Ham (H) Drew 0-0 Points = 8 Goals for = 3 Goals Against = 2 So we've quadrupled our points tally, trebled our goals scored and more than halved our goals against. If that's not progress, I don't know what is.
