Saint in Paradise

Mrs Browns Boys are here in NZ next March and as my wife really loves them I agreed to go with her. ( I am only trying to get brownie points as I can't stand them ). Luckily she has decided that $210 for the cheapest, miles from the stage, seats is far too much. The "best" seats are nearly $500!!!! Mind you virtually all seats have been sold and so there is talk of an additional show the next night so some obviously do like them. I am pleased to read that Mrs Brown is not that popular with other posters but I am probably in a minority of one as I just don't find Ricky Gervais even mildly amusing.

I think that if Keke Rosburg was in his prime then Lewis would have a much tougher team mate than Keke's son is.

Three long but very interesting articles and indeed well worth a read by everyone. It doesn't matter what you are - rabid right wing or a huggy fluffy leftist.

Sounds to me that he wants a black manager to be able keep their job until they want to leave. It doesn't matter what the results are like, if the club drops down the divisions or totally folds up the black manager's position must be totally fire proof. How long before people like him start demanding that all staff and players at every club must be black?

A definition as told to me about the PC crowd is "pathetic clowns" yep that suits just fine.

Obviously Ralph really meant "Happy wife equals a happy life" as lets face it when a wife "suffers" she sure as hell makes sure that she doesn't "suffer" alone or even quietly come to that. God you PC lot are getting more "Precious" by the week. :lol:

No it's not just you, I got fed up with that bloke who has supported Saints for 74 years and all his family go yada yada yada but he never actually asked a question. Also I agree with Batman in his post just before yours.

Camila Batmanghelidjh – the former CEO of Kids Company – stiffened. This time, Bernard Jenkin had gone too far. “On what basis,” she inquired haughtily, “have you decided that this was a ‘failing’ charity?” The Conservative MP for Harwich & N Essex met her glare equably. “It’s gone bust,” he said. It was chaos from the start. The kaleidoscopically flamboyant Ms Batmanghelidjh – looking more than ever like a pile of Aladdin’s laundry – seemed incapable of giving a straight answer. Paul Flynn (Lab, Newport West) snapped that her replies were “verbal ectoplasm”. Mr Jenkin asked whether it was true that Kids Company routinely handed teenagers cash in brown envelopes. In the space of six seconds, Ms Batmanghelidjh said this was “a myth” and “not a myth”. For the rest of this comedy episode :- http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/11934290/Alan-Yentobs-day-of-embarrassment-over-Kids-Company...-from-150-shoes-to-abusive-limericks.html I love that phrase "verbal ectoplasm" - I feel that it could very well be said to several posters on here. .

They are supposed to stop getting dings from idiots who don't care about damaging your pride and joy when she is parked. ( Car of course not the girlfriend/wife ) http://www.doorshox.com/car-door-protector-features.htm .

Saints didn't just dodge a bullet there then - they dodged a howitzer shell.

Now bringing this up at next weeks forum would make a lot more sense than someone moaning about beer or pies.

More than 340 Australian consumers have contacted law firm Maurice Blackburn and class actions principal Damian Scattini says he could begin preparing the case immediately after Volkswagen's face to face with the Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development, and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission. "We're a bit concerned it's going to be more weasel words, so we're not going to wait beyond today to take the next step," said Mr Scattini, who said he could consider a freedom of information request to prise the facts from Volkswagen. "They've got this final opportunity to do the right thing." Mr Scattini said it is inconceivable that VW doesn't have all the relevant information. "Germans are good record keepers. If you wanted to find a part for a 1972 Volkswagen Beetle, they'd have a way of finding that for you very quickly," Mr Scattini told AAP. "I can't believe for a moment they don't know what's happening here. If they did not have those engines in Australia, they would very quickly say `we don't have those here and it's not a problem.' "They didn't say that and it's very telling. They're having meetings about the best way to manage this for the least expense and that's not good enough." https://nz.finance.yahoo.com/news/patience-running-vw-over-scandal-012425948.html

You do realise that "They" will claim credit for Newports success as it was "Their" original pioneering which has shown all clubs the way to go.

Midwives in USA Can’t Say ‘Pregnant Women’, Must Say ‘Birthing Individuals’ To Avoid Offend Breastfeeding Trans Dad. http://www.breitbart.com/london/2015/09/29/transphobic-midwives-must-say-birthing-individuals-not-offend-breastfeeding-transgender-dad/ I didn't post this in the whats wrong with the USA thread as it's not about guns - to me it's far worse as unlike USA guns, which stay in the USA this could very well quickly spread to the rest of the Western world.

Oh dear this isn't the first time that they have been caught either http://www.autosafety.org/sites/default/files/imce_staff_uploads/VW%20Defeat%20Device%20%24120%2C00%20fine%203-12-74%20Pr.pdf It's the article on the right hand side. I now wonder how many other vehicles in the VAG stable are going to be caught up in this and what will happen to people trying to sell?

Watch the white car near the end ... see what make and type of engine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ky8x0ykF_tQ

Over in the good old USA they have been very naughty re emissions. I wonder IF they have been doing the same in UK / Europe as well ? http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/2015/09/18/epa-accuses-volkswagen-audi-evading-emission-laws/72400018/ .

I don't wish injuries like that on anyone no matter how they left Saints. I just hope that as he is still a young lad he will heal a lot faster and better than say a 30 year old. I also really hope he can recover enough so that he is still good enough to play for England in the future... and I support Scotland.

Well, well, well even V. Putin says "We must aim to destroy IS at all costs" http://www.msn.com/en-nz/news/world/vladimir-putin-is-right-we-must-aim-to-destroy-is-at-all-costs/ar-AAe3wpJ Read it and weep huggy fluffy appeasers :lol: .

ISIS will never negotiate and agree to anything that they think will weaken their religion in even the smallest, tiniest way. They do not think "give and take" like normal people, they only take. They look upon The West as being weak and stupid and alas judging by some comments on here they are totally correct. Yes they will never be defeated in a conventional sense and their expansion can only be slowed down by not acting in a huggy fluffy goody two shoes way but by brute force. Anyone who cannot accept this are deluding themselves big time and making matters much, much worse for everyone else in the future. If you don't care about yourself for goodness sake stop being so selfish and start to think of future generations and the millions yet to be born. Do you really want them to be slaves to an ISIS controlled stone age religion? .

Rather looks like the father of that dead child on the beach is a ******* LIAR. https://themuslimissue.wordpress.com/2015/09/04/family-of-drowned-toddler-aylan-kurdi-had-been-given-free-housing-in-turkey-while-fathers-story-is-full-of-holes/ .

I think that ALL European countries should just match the help that the oil rich Middle East countries are giving. That would soon end this crisis. These economic migrants, and the extended families that they will demand on being allowed to enter the UK later, will hate the UK winter so be prepared for you Taxpayers to cough up even more money to help. Of course letting the UK pensioners, who have worked hard and fought wars for the UK suffer and die earlier than they need to because the UK Govt. won't help will go towards part of the cost of these economic migrants. So if you hate your own grand parents keep shouting to let these economic migrants into the UK, but just remember that YOU will be old and "in the way" in years to come.

There are some very dorky comments on there, must be from down the M27 I suppose.
