    Whats your favourite type of post?

    Why do people need to become abusive to others to get their point across? Answer is the same, they don't yet it doesn't stop them on here...

    Whats your favourite type of post?

    Universal, out of the box, swear filter prog. I work for a company where the language filter doesn't allow us to use the name of out largest competitor because it finds it offensive... It boggles the brain cells!

    Will you get seriously hammered this Christmas??

    I drink. I enjoy a beer or two like most other guys. I know where to draw the line and when to though.

    Will you get seriously hammered this Christmas??

    This sounds like a scene from my life when I was 18-20, when it was moderately acceptable to behave in this manner. I had no kids, a routine job and no real responsibility to anyone other than myself. You say you have a wife and kids and you STILL behave this way? And at Christmas? Jeez you...

    Greedy middle class pensioners

    But surely if they spent money up-front in improving the system and processes (including means testing) then the money saved (the ROI) in the long term is then used to pay the pensions of those drawing and the contributions of the working can then be invested, as you point out, for future use...

    What about his human rights ?

    To quote the great John Smeaton... This is Scotland, we won't stand for that. We'll set aboot ye. Sorry but I reckon the big man was right, this wee scrotum of society was causing undue issues for hundreds of others on that train. Each one has the right to get home after having paid their...

    Greedy middle class pensioners

    Exactly, Joe nails it. D_Hailsham, Return on investment isn't about money being invested per se (as in in banks or investment funds). It's about the money spent in the short term in order to provide a more in control future state that costs less. So in this case, if it cost £1m to...

    Greedy middle class pensioners

    Sounds very short sighted in the way of it may cost a lot in the short term but surely, just surely someone must have been looking at the long-term Return on Investment? Or would that be too simplistic?

    Greedy middle class pensioners

    Bus Pass, heating allowance and Free TV Licence - make them all means tested and we would save billions each year. I earn little over £30k, work a 40+ hour week with no hope of overtime payments (salaried only) contribute to a pension that won't see a huge return and, along with my wife...

    TV ads that make you scream!!!

    Any advert that starts "Had an accident? A trip or fall anywhere?"... Vultures the lot of them, picking on the carcass of a once great society. But I suppose the fact that we know them to talk about them proves that they get their point across no matter how much we hate them.

    What is the best advice you have been given?

    Don't stand up in a canoe. Or, more seriously. To get to where you need to be, you need to understand and know where you are now. (Taught to me during my Lean 6Sigma training)

    Whats wrong with the legal system in this country ?

    I doubt it, the families are probably willing them on to commit such crimes. We have become soft and the other nationalities spot this, exploit it and then reap the benefit of being let off scot-free. Forgetting the racist part of this attack for a second, watch the video and tell me under...

    martin oneill sunderland manager

    I reckon that the thinking may be that O'Niell did relatively ok at Leicester with a bunch of mediocre players and as Joe points out, you can only be as good as the limits of your resources. So are the Sunderland board saying they have mediocre players? Job at Cellicfootballclub was totally...

    Watch out Scammers about

    Same thing went round last year up here but it was cards from EDS (Express Delivery Service) again a premium rate number (but just the normal £1 per minute not £315 for a recorded message). I suppose it makes sense to the scammers (if they are - mixed opinions on here) that lots of people will...

    Let me correct that type for you. Can't, they can't tell as in an apostrophe shortened cannot. And were, they were inundated with presents. Low IQ? Village Idiots? Pot, kettle, black perhaps?
