Advice for the Pope.
El Loro Re Pope Benedict and the Nazi Youth: just to put the record straight this is copied from the Wikipedia article on him: Following his 14th birthday in 1941, Ratzinger was conscripted into the Hitler Youth — as membership was required by law for all 14-year old German boys after December 1939 — but was an unenthusiastic member who refused to attend meetings. His father was a enemy of Nazism, believing it conflicted with the Catholic faith. In 1941, one of Ratzinger's cousins, a 14-year-old boy... [ more ]
squiggle Interesting post Yellow Rose, nice to hear from such a personal viewpoint. I truly felt that Pope John Paul II was a man of God. I am not a Catholic but a fellow Christian. I too don't feel this new Pope is a man of God. [ more ]
Dirtyprettygirlthing Yes my husband has just gone off on one about him having been in the Hitler youth! [ more ]

Politicians kissing babies
Demantoid Have they all had their Criminal Records Bureau checks, that's what I want to know. After all, you and I would need one if our jobs necessitated any contact with other people's kids. [ more ]
Yellow Rose Reference: So, I wonder why those who do it think it's okay? Presumably the parents don't object Maybe they just want to be on the tellybox? In years to come these kids could be on X Factor seeking fame for 15 minutes poor things [ more ]
Dirtyprettygirlthing I'd have given my daughter free reign to respond as she wanted if some big man she didn't know tried to kiss her & have her photo taken doing it! She walloped the GP when she had her jabs... she was a bit feral when she was a baby... I have a vision of a politician running round with a rabid baby clinging to their head goring their eyes out!

Weak bosses are as bad as bully ones
Dirtyprettygirlthing LOL! that is how my old boss (previously referred to as fab boss... he was my mentor.. in fact, he was loads of peoples mentors).... finally got into management position. He became the union rep... and within 6 months management offered him a senior position (rather have him with them than against them!... though he never did fully conform!) [ more ]
Garage Joe Well howsabout becoming an accredited rep. (or shop steward in old money) Your Union send you on courses and teach you how to deal with managers and shitty HR people. Keep your nose clean and they will never sack a rep, ever. [ more ]
Dirtyprettygirlthing The Chief Exec of the Trust I used to work at decided to have an area on the new Trust Intraweb called "Ask the Chief" Staff were invited to ask him questions directly about the trust and related issues. It was all in line with his "firm belief in a top down bottom up organisation"! (worra twIt) The moment I saw it I laughed "oh noooooooo!" clasping my hand over my mouth. My boss (fab boss) looked over my shoulder and said "lass... do NOT post anything on there.. nothing at all... this is... [ more ]

Litterbugs
Rexi I couldn't work out whether it was real litter, and there was a posse of people with industrial sized hairdryers blowing the whole lot around, or whether it was computer generated. And yes, honestly, I really did ponder this ... I must get out more [ more ]
Blizz'ard He is a fine actor. I must say, I found the litter very distracting. [ more ]

Sophie running London Marathon for the Children's Trust!
Crunchy Nuts Reference: It took Sophie seven hours, 15 minutes and 51 seconds to complete her first marathon, and she told The Sentinel she wasn't in a rush to do another one any time soon. So her boobs probably crossed the line at about 6 hours 45 then [ more ]

Springtime.
Former Member Reference: Yes, we are having lots of blossom, I think it's because of the long winter leading to a late spring, which has given the trees a longer time than in recent years to hibernate and so are stronger. That's more or less what they said on Radio4 this morning, and that the winter had been particularly wet. Loving all of the magnolia that is out now, doesn't last long, but it is sooooo beautiful [ more ]
Demantoid My morello cherry tree is in full blossom now, and buzzing with hoverflies and bumble bees. But it (and all the other flowering trees in my neighbourhood) were a bit late to bloom this year, because winter was so unusually cold and long. [ more ]
Xochi Hi Carport! Whenever I read that word in your thread title I always think of that famous song from Mel Brooks' 'The Producers'. Before anyone gets offended, the context is all. I'll post a link hoping most Gagas have roughly the same sense of humour as me... [ more ]

Pies...
Soozy Woo Reference: I once went to a pub in Yorkshire, asked for a steak pudding, and they only went and BAKED it. I'd have been happy with that TBH. I like pies but really don't like puddings .............eeeeeeeeugh all stodge! [ more ]

An hour and a half to go...
brisket Deman I thought of you when I read this piece in my paper today: "Wainwright in full flight is breathtaking, and this theatrical evening.....showcases the singer at his baroque best." Pleased you had a great time. [ more ]
Demantoid It was brilliant - apart from the big screen showing close-up film of his eyes, in thick black makeup. I don't like eyeballs up close, they give me the heebies. The first part of the evening, he came on dressed like an Elizabethan ghost in drag, and played all of the new album, during which time we weren't supposed to applaud because it's all very low-key. After the interval he came back looking normal and did a load of his previous hits. Loved it! [ more ]
Soozy Woo Rufus Wainwright is fab .............personally though I prefer his father Laudon ...........I well remember a concert of his back in 1976 where he introduced his song about his baby boy 'Rufus is a tit man'. ..................they don't write em like that anymore. [ more ]

I have waited & waited & waited for them to sort out doing the Pern Movie.... years ago it had been rumoured that that bloke from the x files would play F'lar (which would work)... but they never seem to get it sorted out!

Gordon Brown looking good today!!
Carnelian It's not surprising people think they're self serving prats. [not original insight follows] Labour came in on 'the third way' approach to foreign policy, cleaning up Tory sleaze and making Britain fairer. Thirteen years later social mobility has worsened, Gordon Brown put up income tax for the lowest paid, sleaze at its height and an 'illegal' war. Life long Labour voters and socialists can hardly recognise what Labour have become. The Tories are worse, they were and are more enthusiastic... [ more ]
Comrade Ogilvy Reference: I have now come to the conclusion that they are all self serving prats...and we the ordinary public out there will be ripped off no matter who is in power.... In complete agreement. I honestly can't even pretend to care in the slightest about party politics. Like the parodies on them all though. [ more ]

Apparently Rachel Rice is our all time fave BBHM
stupidcupid I actually have to think who most of them are, I can see why shes popular though as least she would be herself(even if some people find that boring) As much as I loved Nikki at the time ,I honestly think that the so called big personalities like herself.Aiselyne.Nadia etcetera.etc, would be just boring caricatures of themselves and thus only Rachel would make an interesting entrance, as she is the only hm to be percieved as herself. She could take Rex in as an example on how not to behave if... [ more ]

Crunchy Nuts I'm sorry but I just don't believe this for a second. Suppose the good thing about this is that if you desperately want to say something to someone like ask someone out or something but are worried incase they say no, you can just ask them, then if they say no just say you dunno what happened, must have been that facebook hacker Scaremongering at its best. I'll take my chance, thanks. If it backfires then it backfires (but it won't) [ more ]

Yellow Rose Reference: Today at 02:54 (Edited: ) Reference: now I can't be bothered with it even though I've heard it's a good programme It is The storylines are not as gritty or real as EE or Corrie, but the acting is better. They seem to miss out on awards every year aswell, not fair I thought Emmerdale had recieved awards over other soaps the last few years, maybe I was wrong? My son watches it and tells me it's a great soap with some very good actors. We usually switch to the One Show at that time... [ more ]
