cologne 1 Having just come out of hospital, I can say with conviction that the service has improved 10 fold. My only gripe would be that they should do away with 50% of their admin and give the money to their excellent nurses. [ 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)... [ more ]
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. They chased it up for me and I think the guy was going to be dodgy but when Paypal threatened the end of his eBay experience he couldn't send me the covers quick enough. [ more ]
Demantoid Reference: DiD I pay straight away and have a 100% feedback score 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. [ more ]

Dirtyprettygirlthing I agree Croc that so long as you do other stuff as well, watching videos or kids tv isn't bad... in fact I would argue that its quite good for the child. Mine used to play on the nintendo as well... and I am convinced that helped with hand eye co-ordination. [ more ]

El Loro Reference emantoid I fail to see what a parade of saggy arses has to do with LS Lowry Very little. But there is a strong link between the work of Stanley Tunick and L S Lowry in that both use large crowds of people, normally at a distance in a way that the people become part of the landscape.

Demantoid Urgh, as soon as any programme brings that Judi whatserface out, I can feel my eyes start rolling. They had her interpeting their body language after the first TV debate, and a load of old cobblers it was! I remember a few years back, one of the right-wing rags showed close-up pics of Gordon's nails. First pic showed them looking neat, but in the other they were bitten to the quick. Rag interpeted this as a sign he was finding the job of Chancellor too tough, went into huge depths about why... [ more ]

Blair to the rescue (?)
squigglesquiggle
squiggle Reference: I'm sorry squiggle, I just don't believe that Tony Blair was this fiend who was dying for a war whatever it took. If he had'nt gone into Iraq, he would probably be called the best PM Britain had for decades. My son went into Iraq twice and he saw the difference of life for the people there, so there has to be some benefit. Well cologne you have the proof before you in black and white and you still do not want to see it. Robin Cook was the Foreign Secretary at the time and resigned... [ more ]
Dame_Ann_Average Reference: A sane voice at last.

El Loro And on this May Day, here is a link to the Workers' Revolutionary Party's May Day manifesto published to support the Greek workers protest against the proposed economic measures.

SazBomb Reference: Honestly I don't think you'd find a group willing to do it. Students like the fact that they are independent they don't want to think of themselves as lodging which I personally think they would if the landlord was live in. Plus when things go wrong we like to have massive rants about how rubbish the landlord is I agree with Trixy, I wouldn't have wanted my landlord living with me when I was a student... we also used to rant about how rubbish and dodgy he was A friend of mine did...

Demantoid I'm glad you're so philosophical about it, Meaty. I'd be gutted if it was me, to know some oik had been rootling around my house. Still, it could be worse - at least they didn't turn all the taps on or poo on the carpet. [ more ]
Yogi19 Reference: Meaty Strangely no, by the looks of it they only entered the living room. Went in my bedroom and my PS3 and the laptop was still there. I do have it all stored in a box when not using so its pretty hard to find. So all they got was a broken TV? It's still horrible to have someone break into your house. [ more ]

squiggle Reference: I completely disagree Squiggle. I thought the most stuck up with the superiority complexes were the two who didn't have the classification. You misunderstand me I didn't mean that any of them were particularly snobby just that you have to pay to get the stars so its a bit daft to act as if you have been awarded the BB equivalent of the Nobel Peace Prize or something. [ more ]
Former Member The couple from Blackpool were the worst. He genuinely thought his address No1 made him exactly that, and they're not. (greedy and over priced for where they are, and with only 2 rooms full of confusing gadgets. Sure the old duffer from the thatched abode had high opinions, and amusingly self - appointed gold stars, but at least they were reasonably priced, and offered the best breakfast so far. [ more ]
Queen of the High Teas I completely disagree Squiggle. I thought the most stuck up with the superiority complexes were the two who didn't have the classification. The snobby Dorset couple and the pillock from Avebury were awful. They may have had picturesque homes stuffed with antiques but they didn't seem to give a damn about providing the guests with a good service, only about making money. The ones who did subscribe to the star system strived to give guests exactly what they would expect of that rating and more. [ more ]
