If Graham Norton makes you laugh get therapy fast.

Eugene's Lair You're not wrong, Roxan. I only vaguely remember it myself, so I looked it up: Hoffman appeared on "V Graham Norton" the night before the BB3 Final... [ more ]
Eugene's Lair Graham Norton's Channel 4 chat show started in 2002, and went out immediately after BB3's highlight shows. Because of this, he frequently "joked" about BB in his start-of-show "spiels". TBH the attacks on Jade had already started before Norton waded in: people had been likening her to Miss Piggy from the start, and I think the Sun had already launched their "Vote out the pig" campaign. However IMO Norton took it to a different level, reaching a peak with the punchline to one of his routines... [ more ]

Enthusiastic Contrafibularities I can't stop, I'm addicted to it. The Trip is really funny, own them myself. [ more ]
Saint Sorry for the late reply I can't find a DVD so I 've been looking for it … and realising I have way too many DVD's - this is has to stop So I bought Train to Busan (well I've wanted it for ages) and The Trip with Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon (well it's ruddy funny) And that's it … I can't take any more, I'm becoming a hoarder [ more ]

Eugene's Lair Never really taken to her. I knew a few people who studied in Birmingham when she was managing director of Birmingham City, and they said she pretty-much dominated the local press and TV - admittedly that was essentially part of her job, but still very wearing for anyone not interested in BCFC... Personally, I've always found it very telling that she's happy to talk about managing BCFC for David Sullivan, and the sexism she encountered in the role, but a lot less happy when people mention...

The Greatest Dancer v The Voice
Enthusiastic Contrafibularities I stopped watching The Voice when it shifted from the BBC to ITV. This new dance show is a Simon Cowell vehicle, hence Cheryl Coles inclusion. As I will be out Saturday I shall be watching neither and unlikely to watch in the future. As a side note, I was out and missed the final of Big Brother, I was also out when the strictly final was on. Not caught up with either and do not know the winners.! [ more ]
Baz Thanks El I’ve never got into the Voice .....but , as there’s nowt else on I might give the dancing thing a go [ more ]

For anyone who has to do tax returns
El Loro Assuming that your income is mainly pension income then that's right and you shouldn't need to have to do a tax return. If your only other income is interest income (ignorings ISAs) then for standard rate tax payers the first £1,000 is taxable at 0% for the 40% higher rate tax payers it's only the first £500 which is taxable at 0% (for those who go into the 45% all their non-ISA interest is taxable at the 45% rate). For those people who have more interest income than those levels, they'll... [ more ]
Baz Thanks El ....I definitely won’t need it for the current tax year .....but next year I will fall into a tax bracket ....but I think , if it’s the same as Mr B , it will be taken off at source ...ie paye [ more ]
El Loro Only if you have to do a self assessment tax return. HMRC try to use their own tax calculations (P800s) for taxpayers whose income is mainly employment/pensions and small amounts of interest and dividends rather than taxpayers having to complete a tax return. If you are in doubt, ring them but not yet as they'll think you are asking about 2017/18 rather than 2018/19. The bug was there in the previous year's tax returns but it's affected more of my clients this time than before. [ more ]
