    The penalty count in the first half didn’t help being something the England boys aren’t used to, not that there should be any excuse, think Ben Youngs will be starting the next game and wonder if Flood will be on instead.

    Toughest pool game out the way now and as the team bond I think they’ll top the pool, I expect the semis at the very least even on today’s performance

    Just as it’s getting good they stick in some adverts, wonder how far the Kiwis will go before they choke this time.

    Tell them you run linux or are on a Mac or even Windows NT and make up some technical rubbish to confuse them, put them on hold or something to run up their phone bills (as already suggested). It’s what I’d do if I ever got the call.

    It’s a bit like those who knock on the door and start with ‘I’m not trying to sell anything…’ Total liars, quickest way to get rid of them is to say the place is rented and all utilities are the responsibility of the landlord/letting agency. Soon give up. If I want to change my mortgage/windows/phone/electric I will do it on my terms when it suits me.

    Nice content on the site but why a table based layout?

    This is one of those threads that should come with a warning that some photos may cause distress, it’s not like we’ve got any great British aircraft left to stick on her anyway.

    I guess with them being the V force that is the real reason the Sperrin was shelved, it just didn’t fit!

    i feel that is the dividing line since then everyone has to some degree believed they should have a millionaires life style or be famous

    Oh I’ve firmly believed that I should have a millionaires life style even before the lottery came along, already spent the money in my head and everything, isn’t going to happen though. Rather not be famous though, there’s enough rubbish in the papers without anyone wanting to know what I’ve had for lunch.

    Call centers do annoy me, number of times I’ve had internet issues and had some dopey idiot on the other end tell me to ‘turn it off and on again’. Even had one poor soul following their sheet somewhere in India who insisted that the reason I had intermittent internet connection speeds at certain times of the day is because I didn’t have a ‘yellow internet cable’ they then proceeded to have one sent out as they were convinced that would fix it. Cable isn’t long enough and the CAT5 I use is fine.

    Bonkers the lot of them, still at least they won’t get arrested for criticising a system that allows them to do just that, maybe they should try complaining about something in Syria or China.
