the off-topic thread

seriously

 

I saw the game last night. It was raining in Moscow last night. ITV had good coverage. It is amazing how on Sky and Setanta Sports, you pay an arm and a leg for such an event, but on ITV, you get it for free. Setanta, rip off because I know that such sports are freetoair on satelite. Sky,customers have lined the pockets of Rupert Murdoch for twenty years.

Freesat, erm, give me a break.

 

My budgie really likes pendulum, she's going mad!!

 

I just lost the game

 

Just to alert everyone, three bombs have gone off in Exeter City Centre. I believe this to be the work of Alqueda. I doubt it is IRA involvement. They dropped their weapons years ago.

This is basically another Terrorist attack. So this is, 5/22.

Princesshay area cordoned off.

S'not on the BBC website.

 

nonono j0hn, I meant they coulda picked up IRA tactics, mainly the ones that involved frequent small attacks rather than huge infrequent ones.

 

No, I checked, still nothing. Seems like Exeter is a very isolated community. It might be Christmas before the rest of the Country know what is happening today.

Does anyone work for the jobcentre? Can anyone explain to me why advisors swing about on their chairs, eating jammy dodgers and sticking pencils in their ears, before seeing their clients? Is it me or is being an advisor for the jobcentre one of the best jobs in Britain?

Is it then no wonder they mess up people's claims and then the government has to install Security guards just to protect the advisors from retribution and desperate clients?

I went to jobcentre yesterday.More swingy chairs, more people behind the scenes sitting on comfy chairs like chickens going Cluck cluck, whilst taking calls and dealing with budgeting and crisis loans, probably all based in Belfast. Yet when I lived in Uxbridge, my money came from Reading.

 

On the Exeter thing, seems weird, only one injury implies it was a very shit terrorist attack if it was one. Probably someone arsing around with home made explosives by the sound of it.

 

My doctor gave me a note saying i had extreme anxiety and panic attacks and was unable to work for at least a month and they still wont give me any money. Good job i have a husband or id be screwed, literally on the streets. I can really see how homelessness can happen so early and easily to people
The divide is so obvious in Cheltenham. They might aswell draw a line down the streets between the "rough end of town" and the "posh end"...im in the middle and no-one bothers with middlies. I dont have 5 screaming kids whose fathers names i cant remember and i also dont have royal heritage or any family with a manor house and horses, so nothing for me

 

Also i just kicked some serious arse...ive been getting these nuisance calls for weeks and im usually too scared to answer or just lie back and take what they give...well i just found out who the company manager was and phoned his mobile and told him exactly what i thought of his constant harassment at all hours at this time of massive stress for me and he kind of stuttered and sounded scared and like he wanted to cry. If that hasnt worked, Watchdog it is. They try and con me out of all sorts of shit and get abusive when i dont let them...well fuck it, im not being quiet anymore. And that goes for all similar situations

 

Today the Year 11's left. Next time they'll be back shall be the end of the year when they sit their exams. Then a few might go to sixth form. Alex is. I think Dave is too.

In one year that'll be me. I'll be leaving school... And I am freakin' scared.

but i bet the year 11s are fucking terrified.

 

ooh, i have that ... be warned though, almost all the patterns are fucked!

that being said though, i've learned lots from it, including how to fix fucked up patterns ... so if you get it, and run into any problems, just shout at me

well maybe not at me ... but well ... :leaving:

 

It's more a feeling of relief to be honest...

And thanks pheonix indigo, I'll remember that (though I promise not to shout at you!)

 

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Eurovision semi finals! Who's excited........... me!!! Željko could possibly be a god, and I have told him that many a time!!

 

Yeah i guess for most people it would be. Gina's sisters scared though. she had a nervous breakdown the start of year 10 because they only had 2 years left...

I need to know the time zone for americas states but i cant find a decent site. dammit.

 

Which state? google the state and timezone and yer'll get it.
