I am sure she was joking Poolshark.

I am sure she realises the gravity of the situation.

*nods*

She's taking the pee. Quite funny, for her!

can't see she's done anything wrong...

Geez Poolshark anyone would think you were a Bin Laden lover....

She was clearly joking buddy...I don't generally like her but I thought it was pretty funny...

I feel her pain..... someone decided to text me the news at 6.30 a.m. today.   I'm on HOLIDAY dammit - I do NOT need woken up at that time!     He's still dead now, right?

Not unless he's a bloody good swimmer...

Think yourself lucky Kaffy..... my son woke me at 5am -ish, banging on the bedroom foor, with the breaking news.

One was not amused.

Lily Allen's comment was amusing though

Because he was 'killed' and didn't do a kamikaze does that mean he misses out on getting with 99 virgins?

He must be kicking himself in hell 

I think she was probably joking.

I heard today that he was the 17th out of 52 children (fathered). Do they have Croydon facelifts and Jeremy Kyle in Afghanistan, too?

You gotta love a woman who has her priorities in order though

Lily Rose Beatrice Allen (born 2 May 1985) is an English recording artist and talk show host. She is the daughter of actor and musician Keith Allen and film producer Alison Owen

There's an "off" button on your mobile, ya know!

Well excuse me.....amongst all the other World News.....Its my birthday too....that's why you all have a bank holiday! 

I heard something about that on the tele. (About how Al-Quaeda or however ya spell it) started. But that's as far as my vast knowledge goes

I was both nudged and called at 5am. If he ain't dead and I had to get up at stupid o clock for nothing I'll brain the bloody sod myself.

Oh now you're just being ridiculous!      My mobile is never off..... I hyperventilate if the battery life drops below 50%.    

I'm sure it was tongue in cheek and I found it amusing

Mine is permanently on silent and I check it once a day at most.

so why bother having one?

Feckin indeed.   Imagine wanting a birthday on the day Osama crossed the Styx. 

I've been away ..........did I miss your Birthday thread.

Whatever ...............I hope you've had a really lovely day.

Mainly so I can use it to contact other people. I don't see why I should be constantly available to others, and I'm not upset or offended if their phones are off when I call them. I also have it so that others can leave messages or send texts, so long as they don't expect an immediate response.

okies, was just curious. sounds like the idea of having one pisses you off 

Nah, not really. What does piss me off is the way that most people seem to be slaves to their mobiles. Actually, it doesn't so much piss me off as fill me with horror

Agree ^^^^^^^^. i find it incredibly sad the way that some really cannot live without their mobi. It's a wonderful invention ...........so useful at times but ...................I'll never be a slave to my phone!

yeah, i get that. people screaming on the bus first thing in the morning about what happened in eastenders the night before is a bit horrifying.

We could always merge the mobile phone thread with this one. 

thought the other one was inspired by this one. there's not much else to say about lily allen anyway, it's either a joke or the most inconsiderate thing evah.

Oh my god, it was a JOKE. 

How could it be seen as anything other than a joke? I love Lilly ...................a lovely normal, down to earth girl .......................how would anyone take that comment seriously and be offended?

Poolshark is no fool. He fooled us all. 

I just commented on the phone thread too..... I hardly every use it.. but my Dad's 85, my sister doesn't keep well... I like knowing I can be reached at any time.    

Funnily enough.. the two times it haveing my mobile with me mattered wasn't related to either of those two, but they were worthwhile instances all the same, so whilst I don't feel I'm a slave to it - I hate not having it with me.

I like Lilly Allen and I like the way she's a bit gobby and opinionated but not in a thick and obnoxious way like Jordan.  Her music although not really my thing, is not bad either. The comment was in jest. 

If I'm honest, I thought Bin Laden was already dead and I'm not 100% sure the man they killed was actually Bin Laden as it all seems a bit sudden to me.  I doubt his death will  significantly change 'the war on terror'.

oooh... and once again I am agreeing with you!

I like Lily too
