I think I might have mentioned before that I have a sweet memory of Notts Co related to that game - we used to sit in the East Stand near the seated away fans and occasionally a few were seated around us if they had a few up. I think that was the game Stimson was sent off in and though he was shite, the SO was a disgrace and I remember asking an adjacent scab if he felt it was fair. He replied that he didn't give a shit as that was 3 wins in a row for them and they were going up and leaving shit like us behind. I remembered that conversation fondly when we went there in 94 and put 7 past the cunts in the league cup making them look like fat sunday pub league team - they'd already been relegated from the premier of course.

I love the way he implies that there's a correlation between IQ and ability to "make wealth".

It's the complicity of the mother that gets me - it always makes these things worse imo.

Always liked Rutger - despite some semi-dodgy stuff even after The Hitcher etc. There was a big campaign when Interview with the Vampire was being cast to get him the part of Lestat and supposedly Anne Rice wanted him as well before Cruise got the part - I think anyone's who's read the books would agree it as the wrong choice.

Ok but you did somewhat make it sound like an "occupation" would have normalised after such a long while which is possible but there was a bit of ignoring the "nastier" side. Obviously the Jewish population of Britain was a lot smaller than other parts of Europe but they and the other minorities would still have suffered. I've always thought the last couple of years of the war (even post D-Day) were decided on a few "coin tosses" like the V2 programme which could easily have gone either way given slightly different timings - it certainly wasn't the clearcut triumph it's sometimes painted.

I think that CT's been treated a bit harsh here - fair enough "overlooking" the holocaust is stupid but its not that bad a question to ask overall. I suppose it depends how the alternative ended - if they'd never invaded Russia then they might have invaded Britain in about 42 but would still have had to deal with Stalin eventually. Or if they'd defeated Stalin as well that would bring the Americans into play but preumably the Germans would have succeeded with their rocket programme and probably with an atomic bomb. Another question would have been how effective a resitance would have been in Britain.

Just watched Commando on Sky - it's enjoyable of course but fucking hell the "battle" where he kills about 500 soldiers and none of the fuckers shoot him is still such a classic.

I still have a blueyonder address after starting with telewest/cableinet. To be fair to the bearded twat there's never been any pressure to switch to virginmedia.com

A few years ago I was coming up for a game against chelsea on my own and my reserved seat was against the window surrounded by proper CFC heed the balls which was a bit iffy as there were four of them but one shifted no bother. In the end after a few cans it all got very pally apart from when I referred to chelsea as a cockney team which offended them. Im sure one of them was in that macintyre doc.

There's no "overseas" in banking.

Unpaid overtime is rife in banking (and thats for the plebs like me not the public face) but it's something ive never bought into. Unless I'm in the middle of something I leave at five on the dot but I see loads staying. Stupid thing is they dont generally work but tend to surf etc - its all a sad attempt to convince people they deserve a bonus which I know from past experience has sweet fa to do with shit like that and nothing to do with how they do their job in general. My view is I'd much rather get out and have more time to myself even if it ends up costing me a few hundred quid.

It's more than two weeks since the storm when they didn't actually bother to run any trains and half of mine are still running with reduced carriages due to damage the fuckers haven't fixed.

A la Nigel from Spinal Tap and use it to strum your guitar?

They should have started by showing the video of that General Alexander blatantly lying to Congress and then asked these fuckers why anyone should believe a word they say. Also 30 terrorist plots foiled? - so there will be trials and convictions to prove this won't there twats?

Well this would be the first time I've worked with them if it happens so we'll see. My experience so far is that apart from Germans, foreigners in general are two-faced. Might be unconscious xenophobia but then again I've worked with a couple of British born Indians who've been fine versus true immigrants who've been cunts.

This was tonight and went well again. Sweeping generalisation which is based on a sample size of about 50 but I have to say that every American I've ever met/spoken to has been or sounded completely down to earth and incredibly friendly - alwways makes it seem strange that they harbour so many nutjobs and bastards for leaders.

When I bought my new car in May I just upgraded the existing insurance policy from Elephant for about a hundred quid knowing it was due in October for annual renewal. For the first time in about ten years when I did the comparison thing a shit load of them were a lot cheaper so I rang them but even with extra discount they were still £120 more expensive than the best deal so I ditched them. I ended up going with Sheils's wheels which appealed to my sense of outrage over discriminatory companies - I think they were forced to sell to blokes. On the bright side I have £300 of free handbag contents cover

I have a cycling 100 images from the Hubble.

Got through that round - another interview by phone on Thursday or Friday night.

Exactly - I can't see how anyone could get the idea the articles were supportive of the protests - in fact in general they backed the club.

The thing is the fat cunt knows the papers want/need access so will probably be forced to apologise and promise not to report any anti-cunt events in the future. However to some extent he obviously thinks its still a pre-internet world where there are no other outlets for dissent/organisation. The more we see his actions, the more unfathomable his other success seems.

"Positive stories" - what a load of absolute fucking shit. I hope the cunt's out in his helicopter today.

I know he's just a symptom but he's the ulcerous lesion on the club's arsehole.

The cancer causing the last two defeats there is Kinnear - three centre halves down and a utility man sold and a recruitment stopped - thanks very much, you sack of shit. Doesn't excuse the rest of the cunts but derby defeats really fucking bug me.

Just got an email from the train company saying they aren't even going to try running a service tomorrow morning followed by one from work saying people can work from home if they clear it with their manager so I've just emailed him - this is good as I'm trying to shrug today off but deep down I feared polite small talk about the weekend from unknowing people at work could have resulted in nuclear replies.
