Hope you still come to the quizes… who else will i share musical tastes with!!!!??

What do they say? “Be Careful What You Wish For”…..it may come true!

I remember an X-Files episode where someone wished for world peace.

From that moment, there was not a single sound anywhere.

All the people disappeared, all the machines stopped working.

No music, no talking, no sounds at all…just complete silence. They were on their…[Read more]

A song my daughter wrote, composed and performed. Unfortunately it’s nowhere on the web to be able to post a link, it has a haunting tune :?

An open heart
In which desire burns
Wide eyed worship of the love you yearn
15 minutes until the glory of fame
15 minutes to run from the pain
Hold your brother with exaggerated trust
Seduce…

My skin is like a map, of where my heart has been
And I can’t hide the marks, but it’s not a negative thing
So I let down my guard, drop my defences, down by my clothes
I’m learning to fall, with no safety net, to cushion the blow

I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me
There’s a…

So, having sold off our gold reserves for a fraction of their worth, Gordon Brown is set to sell off our libraries, our railways, our power supplies and our betting shops.

I think we should perhaps join him, and have garage sales, and car boot sales, and do sponsored cake bakes in order to help bring down our countries collosal debts.

Failing…[Read more]

If you expect me to feel sorry for her.. you are going to be seriously disappointed!

She was probably promoted to her level of incompetence. That is perhaps a reflection of our society, because it seems to happen in every walk of life. She was paid a vast salary to do a very very important job. Her department failed. Someone has to take…[Read more]

Plus.. wrong is subjective… what one lot of people think is wrong, another lot might think is perfectly fine.

Perhaps they should all be removed from their positions, placed with other better run departments and made to go back to school.

There are bound to be many culpable people when a department is so badly run. But, management is top down. If the person at the top is ok, the people beneath them change their working practices until things end up…[Read more]

On that basis we should have the Monster Raving Loony party as our next government.

Exhume ‘screaming Lord Sutch’ I say and let him run the country.

I thought that the current govrnement was a monster and raving and filled with loonies!

As for Lord Stuch, he was ahead of his time.

Was it worth it? Reaching the summit i mean.

The quiz is always a hoot.

happy birthday to the birthday girls. :D

Happy

well…. very happy actually.

I would wish to go back in time, with all my current knowledge and experience, and live my life again from a specific point.

1. My parents are both in the music business

2. My little sister won young musician of the year

3. My other sister is an artist and paints landscapes in NZ

The Conservatives were in too long, and Labour has now been in too long. This country has suffered as a result of complacency. We need swiftly changing political climates with people striving to achieve the best results, and for that we need a change of government every election.

If you leave them there for too…[Read more]

OK, as I see it, she was in charge of a department. That department has now been investigated, and it was said to be criminally badly run. She ran it. The buck has to stop at someone when things are so badly wrong that children suffer and die (and its not just Baby P, lots of other children were endangered). The court case seems to imply that…[Read more]

I thought this thread was going to be about the horrors of today’s court hearing.

Kent and Susie can take over whatever they like as far as I am concerned!!!

who the hell is Jim?

I’m not a bloke but erm

now I haven’t read the whole of this thread, so forgive me if its already been asked

Have you ever been given too much change back in a shop and not said anything?
Or… have you ever worked in a shop and short changed anyone?

Unfortunately yes Pete. I read in the papers that the school announced this child’s sex change in assembly!

Really sensitively handled then! well done that school
