MrMincePie Reference: See that's what I'm just not getting Meaty, (am I being thick?) So they'll get rid of the outreach workers on a low wage and decrease jobs for them, but replace them with HVs, hence increasing jobs for HVs who earn more than treble that of Outreach Workers. Or are they intending to decrease staffing by a third so as to not increase spending? "So they'll get rid of the outreach workers on a low wage and decrease jobs for them, but replace them with HVs, hence increasing jobs for... [ more ]
Former Member Reference: Its not really about wanting the government to increase spending. Its cutting the spending which could cost people jobs. See that's what I'm just not getting Meaty, (am I being thick? ) So they'll get rid of the outreach workers on a low wage and decrease jobs for them, but replace them with HVs, hence increasing jobs for HVs who earn more than treble that of Outreach Workers.

darloboy (Play The Game!) Coronation Street binman Trevor Dean will be written out of the soap later this year, Digital Spy can confirm. New producer Phil Collinson took the decision not to renew actor Steve Jackson's contract. The news comes just hours after the announcement of Vicky Binns's decision to leave her character of Molly Dobbs behind after five years in the role. An ITV spokesperson this morning told DS : "We can confirm that Steve will be leaving at the end of his current contract." Trevor joined the... [ more ]

PoolsharkPoolshark
Poolshark I read that about the IVF as well, and can remember her going there as well, but they have never actually explained to us how she has suddenly become pregnant, that just seems dumb to me, I think she is expecing a daughter and I read on an American site that she tries to leave the team but gets convinced to stay, also we have not seen the kangaroo for a while, what's that all about. did you know the programme is showen in real time in the US, and w and europe see it 2 days later. I just... [ more ]

cologne 1 Reference: Absolutely cologne! Germany is a very good model to follow.....coallition aint so bad If a party has a huge majority, democracy goes out the window for me.

El Loro This is a link to the official Yellowstone Volcano Oberservatory website . The current level of volcanic activity is normal and the experts do not consider that there is any imminent threat of a catastrophic eruption, though nothing can be ruled out. The last 2 catastrophic eruptions occurred at intervals of 800,000 years and 660,000 years. The last one occurred 640,000 years ago, so assuming that the next one occurred at the 660,000 year interval we have another 20,000 years to go before... [ more ]

Post Election Tips.
Garage JoeGarage Joe
El Loro The reason why I said that if Brown isn't re-elected he would resign because of the Duffy incident is that on the following day he apologied to those working to get Labour re-elected, acknowledging that his comments about Mrs Duffy had damaged the campaign. It is that acknowledgement which would almost certainly seal his fate as he has effectively already claimed personal responsibility for the campaign. However it is far from certain that Labour will lose. Although I can't see an outright... [ more ]
Demantoid Reference: I think him going after a defeat would of happened wihtout the Duffy incident, I can't remember the PM to lose the election, and stay leader, That's what I meant, RZB - the Duffy thing is a red herring. [ more ]

Ebay help, again......
The Devil In DiamanteThe Devil In Diamante
The Devil In Diamante Reference: Me too. Paypal's brilliant once you get used to it - and you can often use it to pay for stuff on other online outlets, not just eBay. At least you know it's secure and you have some form of come-back. I have also used it to just pay a person direct. If you're registered, you can just type the persons email in and send the funds straight to them, you have no need to get their Bank Details then..(great if the person is someone you don't know)...

squiggle I have had some people moan about Paypal but in my experience they are brilliant. I bought some dining chair covers and was waiting for delivery when I got an email from Paypal to say that it could be a suspect deal.
