You'd look a tool as well, rigor!
Almost always when I am flying I:
1) get a headache
2) curiously, feel really horny.
Not sure why that should be, but it almost always happens.

From a disgruntled Chelsea fan.

Is it true Chelsea are now more hated than Man United? Tell me, non United fans......

Sure was. It's often the teams you don't think will who pull something off like this.
Jose at it once more I see:
"Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho accuses the referee of caving in to pressure from Fulham players at Craven Cottage."

With my computer case and hand luggage I dare not think, but the main suitcase is usually about 28-30kg.

Love them. Only wish is they were a bit longer.

My dad was funny once. He got his first few junk mails and called me in when I was there and asked "what does this mean"? He had opened up a mail for some drugs or something and the content was nonsense - you know the type lots of words strung together seemingly at random. He wanted to understand it but could not get that it was nonsense. It's kinda hard to explain but it was quite funny at the time me trying to say to him that yes it is nonsense and that doesn't really matter!

You were crap hey? I don't understand the team selection for Liverpool lots of the time, esp for that CL game the other day. It was so lame.
Anyway I won't spend time worrying much about that

if they say such nice things about me.
Barclays bank is ditching pens on chains and re-branding ATMs "holes in the wall" in a £7m branch revamp.
The bank said it wants to move away from confusing acronyms and jargon, using "more colloquial" terms instead.
Uplifting window displays and signage will also feature in the bid to make branches more customer friendly.
Customers will be beckoned into branch with a sign in the window reading: "Through this door walk the nicest people in the world".
People waiting in the personal banking area will be invited to sit down with the sign "Take the weight off your feet."
Customer service will have new signs asking "Can I help?", while the Bureau de Change will simply be called "Travel Money" in future.

That was coming for a while

But was it fun jpop though?
Hey what was the snow like up there, not the best probably?

Ah, the old 'know him "on a different level"' thing. As she says, that's what she likes to think.
So...... did you do a lot of partying then nicole?
-
Where be Chelsea then?
Oh well, can't not let someone else win something I suppose.
Seriously, what's your take on Souness Mr Wiggles? Given enough chance?

Thats hardly a read is it Bag? Took me an hour or so I think. Some good pics though.
I'm really keen to visit that place in southern china with all them little hills popping up all over the place.

Listening to the best of James these last few days. I used to really like them. Saw them supporting the Smiths once way back.

Escape From New York.
Lots of memories. Kurt was so cool in that. I'll have to check out The Thing again I think.
Dig was also a real good watch.

Quote:Arsene Wenger complained that the "sun had got in the eyes" of his team when it was really Everton who had got up their noses.
Everyone really is making it easy for us this season aren't they?
One of my mates from Hull is into Huddersfield - they're 5th in CC Leauge 1 at the moment... unlike the Premiership it looks pretty tight up at the top there. -
Parrot squawks on woman's affair
A parrot owner was alerted to his girlfriend's infidelity when his talkative pet let the cat out of the bag by squawking "I love you Gary".
Suzy Collins had been meeting ex-work colleague "Gary" for four months in the Leeds flat she shared with her partner Chris Taylor, according to reports.
Mr Taylor apparently became suspicious after Ziggy croaked "Hiya Gary" when Ms Collins answered her mobile phone.
The parrot also made smooching sounds whenever the name Gary was said on TV.
New home
Mr Taylor, 30, a computer programmer, confronted the woman he had lived with for a year who admitted the affair and moved out, several newspapers reported.
He also gave up his eight-year-old African Grey parrot after the bird continued to call out Gary's name and refused to stop squawking the phrases in his ex-girlfriend's voice.
"I wasn't sorry to see the back of Suzy after what she did, but it really broke my heart to let Ziggy go," he said.
"I love him to bits and I really miss having him around, but it was torture hearing him repeat that name over and over again."
Ms Collins, 25, said: "I'm not proud of what I did but I'm sure Chris would be the first to admit we were having problems."
Ziggy - named after David Bowie's former alter ego Ziggy Stardust - has now found a new home through the offices of a local parrot dealer.

Great handle, jumpers!
Welcome.... who you support then?

I remember that when it was starting up and on the wave. Things changed very quickly. I wouldn't mind seeing that.

Mahmood's other victims
Freddie Shepherd and Douglas Hall, April 1998
The Newcastle United directors called northern women "dogs" and their £15m signing, Alan Shearer, "Mary Poppins", and bragged about brothels and prostitutes. They resigned only to be reinstated by the club.
Johnnie Walker, April 1999
The Radio 2 DJ was filmed cutting cocaine at the Grosvenor House hotel and offering to hire prostitutes for the fake sheikh. He was fined £2,000 after pleading guilty to drug possession.
Countess of Wessex, April 2001
Prince Edward's wife met the fake sheikh over a business lunch at the Dorchester. Indiscretions included calling William Hague "deformed", Cherie Blair "horrid" and Gordon Brown's budget "a load of pap". The incident led the countess to quit her high-flying PR job.
Diane Abbott MP, May 2004
Mahmood posed as a member of a Kashmiri terror group and was invited to the Commons by Abbott. He tried to lure her to Dubai and offered a donation to aid his cause; Abbott refused both.
Carole Caplin, June 2005
Cherie Blair's former style guru told Mahmood, posing as a potential client, that "Tony's in dire straits", calling him "overweight" and suggesting he drank too much. She also criticised Nigella Lawson and Delia Smith and called Gillian McKeith "ugly as ****".
Princess Michael of Kent, September 2005
Mahmood posed as a property buyer to lure the princess, who suggested that Prince Charles had only married Diana as "a womb ... somebody to give him children". She also defended Prince Harry's choice of Nazi fancy dress. "He will never live it down," she said.
"But I believe if he had been wearing the hammer and sickle there wouldn't have been so much fuss made. And yet what does a hammer and sickle stand for? Russia, Stalin."

What on earth kind of hold does he have over the FA??? It must be something big
"While Eriksson made a round of contrite calls to his players to head off any dressing room tension, senior figures at the Football Association conducted a flurry of telephone conversations before letting it be known that his position as England boss was not in danger."

Thumbs up from me too - take it for what it is, sit back and enjoy. The dino chase part was madness.
There's some double dvd out already about this movie - is that just the info that was on the website with "production diaries"?

One game that looks awesome on the 360 is King Kong. Playing as Kong absolutely rocks big rocks.
I've seen some in shops though and as others have said it is largely been ignored. Any sales figures for the Japan market?

You mean you are missing Japanese TV?
