Well, with over 2,000 posts, you've cracked the idle bit.

I'm genetically predisposed to laziness, I just can't fund it:curse:

Life in general pppft

Reading a press article today, in which I have been totally misquoted.

This is not good. The article names me. I'm speaking on the same subject at a conference next week.

In 2007, when I bought a sofa in The Bay's sale, I was told that I would have nothing to pay for the first two years. However, after two years of parties, spilled drinks and food, and the missus sleeping on it, the sofa is completely wrecked and I put it on the porch. Yesterday I got a letter from The Bay asking for the first installment.
Can you believe the cheek of them, demanding payment for a sofa that is only fit for the dustmen to take away? They must think I was born yesterday. :curse:

$1000 car bill for service and new brakes. my bottom hurts.

So the term "Paying in Kind" would be a slight misnomer in this instance

Doesn't your day job pay you enough?

the bottom reference was directly linked to the ridiculously high repair bill i have been given, which may well have been placed elsewhere. car mechanics and all who work in service centres shall surely burn.

Berlusconi and Sarkozy backing Blair to be the President of the United States of Europe

Funnier than the Goon Show

the fact that i am expected to be polite, smile and say thank you as someone robs me of an inordinate amount of cash.

its going to happen unless we can have a whip round for someone to take out mandelson.

If it does I hope its the day after I leave the asylum......

Ouch!

Can you please spare my husband, he's a good one!

Oh and just a tip, if you are getting brakes changed - ask for the old ones back, it's one of the things tha annoys my husband no end, seeing brakes changed that don't need it (yet).
