  1. I didn't create Moleicester City
  2. LV car insurance. Cracked windscreen replaced by Autoglass. £75 excess paid. No problem. Then get a letter saying they're increasing my monthly premium by £8 per month and think they'll be getting some sort of penalty payment from me when I say I'm cancelling. Looking forward to speaking to their customer services in the next couple of days.
  3. Recently read Now onto
  4. Have downloaded that to the kindle after reading this
  5. A couple of people I know suggested a similarity a few months back, probably based on hair and beard but on reflection I think the comparison flatters me and Mr Hollywood's lawyers may be seeking damages if your post is brought to the attention of the masterbaker. As for being "Northampton and FT's Mr Legal Eagle" I believe that there may be another inhabitant of the county who has been more diligent than I in practising his Cross examination skills over recent weeks.
  6. I take it your son doesn't read this forum Col. And if he does lets hope he has no Imterest in General Chat Particularly the Fiddy Shades thread. And if he does let's hope he doesn't understand the meaning of "trapdoor two" Cos if he does he might need to have a quiet word in his dad's ear !!!

  9. People who don't know the difference between 'You're' and 'your' whilst typing a sentence? There fvcking stupid.
  10. Just had a sage and onion enema. It's knocked the stuffing out of me. To celebrate being found not guilty John Terry is having a party at his mansion and has invited all the black players from Chelsea FC. Their duties will include parking guests cars and serving drinks. Sky Sports would like to apologise to all subscribers for wrongly advertising they could watch Rangers in 3D. They meant Rangers in D3. The other day, John Terry called me a drunken ****ing ****, who cheats on his wife, sleeps with his team mate's girlfriends, racially abuses black people, has a mother who's a shoplifter, a father who's a drug dealer and insists on taking the credit for trophies his team have won despite not playing in the final. I was offended at first, but then I realised he was only repeating what I'd said to him...
  11. Frozen peas?
  12. See Twenty Twelve is back on BBC2 now. Brilliant.
  13. I bumped into Sian Massey in the street today. I said, "Are you aware of the uproar caused after you officiated at the Liverpool v Wolves game? I mean, two Sky Sports pundits were..." "Yeah yeah," she interrupted. "Tell me something I don't know." So I explained the offside rule.
  14. The makers of GoalRef and Hawk-Eye goal-line technology have told Rangers they can't use the system next season. Apparently it doesn't work with goal posts made from jumpers.
  15. Vegetatians are callous ba$tards Vegetable rights
  16. Got a point though didn't they? One more than they usually get.
  17. Good result for the county today.
  18. Realising that he is to be unemployed during the Olympics David Beckham has once again turned his thoughts to money making ventures and expanding the "Beckham" brand. It has been announced that the Olympic football experience is to be enhanced by the opening of his new Smoothie stand on Wembley Way. It is to be called "Blend It Like Beckham"
  19. Keep going. Tenacity is one of your qualities. Appointments in our chambers are made on merit and a pupillage for you is not within my gift as the pupillage committee sifts through the applications to produce a list of candidates for interview and all tenants (of which I am one) vote upon those that have been seen. Keep networking at court as that is your best opportunity of unlocking doors. If you have got on with and impressed other barristers they'll remember you if you're application comes before them and if you have a portfolio of solicitors who have been pleased with your work and use you on a repeat basis that will also strengthen your application. If you're not in court some pro bono work will also bolster your CV. It really is tough to get started at the moment. If I were in your position now with my academic record I think that I would be struggling to obtain a pupillage. You've worked too hard and want it too much not to succeed so hang on in there. PM me if you think I can offer any other advice that might help.
  20. Irate Leicester customer's striptease threat over cost of pot of tea at Costa Coffee Saturday, June 23, 2012 Leicester MercuryFollow A customer who considered the cost of a pot of tea "grossly indecent" wrote to a cafe branch manager threatening to return and perform a striptease. Michael Ward (60), of Westleigh Road, Glen Parva, pleaded guilty at Leicester Magistrates' Court to sending a letter "which conveyed a message which was indecent or grossly offensive to cause distress or anxiety". The letters were sent to the manager of Costa Coffee, in the Clock Tower area of the city centre, on December 17. He committed the offence while on an 18-month conditional discharge imposed by the court in September last year. He was released on unconditional bail to be sentenced on July 16 after a probation report is prepared. Louise Cox, prosecuting, said Ward's hand-delivered letter was opened by a member of staff who drew the manager's attention to it when he returned to work on December 20. "The letter was pinned up in a staff area away from the public and contained a threat to carry out a vulgar and lewd act." Ward wrote that he considered the price of a pot of tea – £1.70 – at the cafe to be grossly indecent and, to draw people's attention to this he would bring a CD of The Stripper and remove his clothing to the music. Ms Cox said he was an attention-seeker, who told the cafe manager: "You can call me indecent as long as you say you are indecent to charge the price you do." The manager, concerned Ward would carry out his intention, contacted the police. Interviewed, Ward said as far as he was concerned he had written the letter as a protest against the high prices and thought whoever read it might consider it funny. "He admitted writing that he wanted to play the CD and take off his clothing." She said Ward accepted that the letter could be interpreted as an intention to carry out the action and that some of the people who read it could find it threatening. James Adcock, representing Ward, said he suffered from obsessive compulsion disorder and was taking medication for it. "His perception was that he was making a relevant complaint to the cafe but does not seem to have a cut-off point and cannot accept he had any intention to cause distress to anyone when he wrote the letter." Anyone else think prosecuting seems a bit OT Tea ? Unfortunately named prosecutor too
  21. His original post simply called you a silly cow but he bottled taking responsibility for it in his edited reply. He's really rather delicate you see.
