Merlin, I would like to add the loved ones who face another year without them. Also all those who were damaged in mind and body.
My only hope for 2012 is that those who are serving us this night return home safely. God Bless our armed services past,present and future.
I could not be more proud of you!

I have to go now its rather dusty in here.

The Eighth Army was active between 1941-45 and a damn fine bunch of soldiers they were as well!

“Un” I don’t think so Jim as long as this forum exists it will be your “spectre at the feast!”:D

Well I would shoot his tailor for a start. His double breasted coat hardly goes round him and its missing a button. As for the haircut words fail me, send Jim to fix it!:D

On the silent(or missed) call issue I use this site.

As for the scammers who pretend to be from Microsoft Windows saying I have a problem. I say I don’t have a problem I got them from SafestyleUK. That throws them.

BTW I cannot afford double glazing at the moment until my money comes from Nigeria!:D

Wokka Bob, I am glad I cheered you up a bit in your time of sadness. I must admit though I usually have the opposite effect on most people!:)

Firing people is tough. I had to do that some 20 years ago(my wifes business)
All I got was abuse and threats of violence from the staff and their partners.(it was a hairdressers BTW) 15 years later my wife and I finished paying off the bank the money we owed them trying to keep them in a job. We should have pulled the plug earlier as we could have lived on my income.
That is not to say I don’t have a great deal of sympathy for those facing redundancy,I do but there are two sides to every coin.
