Never mind, this just cheered me up

That's brilliant. Must have resulted in some awkward questions from any kids watching the rugby with their parents. Sounds like the TV company didn't exactly hurry to get rid of it, either.

Mind me asking what that little lot cost Tommy ?

[Big Seany]

I am guessing at £150.

Shouldn't it be "octopi" or is that just bollocks?

Here's the info you need.

[Big Seany]

Championship - thanks Paulos. I have always thought "octopi" sounded wank anyway.

There were 3 menus to choose from. One was £30 for three courses but only had three choices for each course. The second menu was 3 courses for £70, which was the one we chose from. The third menu was called the prestige menu, don't really remember much about it other than it had 5 courses

The wine on the other hand bumped the price a little and we chose one of the cheapest!

EDIT:

As I mentioned in the photography thread I went to see Jack Johnson last night. Took a few vids with my camera, the original files were over 100mb so the quality is somewhat reduced on youtube but still pretty impressive

Jack and his brother Trent playing Go On...

Why is it that no-one who is selling Civ Rev on the 360 takes BT?

Paypal is for naive saps! You get your ring hacked and paypal do their best to ream you up it.

[kernow]

Paypal is expensive for sure, well the fees, but when I've been problems or got scammed in the past, they always managed to sort me out and get me my money back.


nothing, -= nothing =- annoys me more than sellers saying '+4% fees' or whatever, obviously people don't get its the sellers responsibility as they are using the service, not the buyer as such. oh well.

I'm really pissed off at the moment. After a gruelling ofsted last week, and the boss away today, those RETARDS at work still managed to drag a staff meeting out for an hour and a half. Any normal staff would have rushed through it. Ten minutes they said it would last - my arse! I've never met such a bunch of twittering bastards in all my life. They never ever stick to the point - every minor decision is subjected to a painful digression, usually involving which local inbred single parent is now humping another local hick.

This may be of interest to the middle aged gossip mongers (mingers) in our sordid little pit, but I find it totally soul-sapping. I so, so badly want to do what Tim did in the Office - get up, call someone a twat and walk out.

Nothing annoys me more than 10 wimmen gossiping on MY F'IN time, especially since they live local and don't have to traipse 10 miles through rush hour traffic.

Utter twats! BLOODY FURIOUS!!!!

[Paulos G]

You love it really though, don't ya?

[prinnysquad]

And now I'm trying to do the last level of Bourne on the hardest difficulty. It's a cocktail that will end in tears.

Well I'm not going on a bloody staff night out!! Those bastards have leeched enough time from me recently. They can stick it up their fat arses.
