Latest news on Obama revelations here.

That has actually happened, apparently. With luck in this case. At our local cenotaph someone stole the flagstones!

I believe they were - by about lap 69.

[quote user="UlsterRugby1999"][quote]Seeing the looks on Ferrari's faces was absolutely hilarious. For 20 seconds they thought they had it, and then when they realised Lewis had taken Glock to take 5th, absolutely priceless. Best race I've ever seen. Justice has been done and it's about time an Englishman had some luck when it really counted. Well done Lewis.[/quote]   Dont some posts just kill off a decent thread. What kind of numbnut finds the passion and pain on the Ferrari's teams faces hilarious? Any normal human being's heart went out to Massa and his crew. Then we have a silly wee, near xenophobic, rant about Englishmen and luck. For dear sake catch yourself on.   Congratulations to Lewis Hamilton on his championship. Ultimately deserved I believe. [/quote] Couldn't agree more. Mr Massa had discharged himself from hospital to be there to see his son win - he still had tubes attached.

If you look on their website you will find crossings as low as £49 single. I don't think that is expensive.

Happened to me once, and Hertz paid all expenses incurred, so presumably on their insurance/indemnity.

Better than winning the race or becoming world champion?

Full credit to him, and also to Massa, who was dignified in defeat. I hope he gets the chance to fight for the championship agaon next year. But, well done Lewis.

[quote user="Benjamin"]When it turns this bad don't you just wish you'd had all those exotic holidays; signed up for Sky's most expensive package including all the sport and films. The list goes on... bought the season ticket for United gone to all the fine restaurants or down the pub every night changed the motor for the latest model bought the flat screen plasma kept a girlfriend on the side  [6] indulged in all those exciting but ever so expensive hobbies. Nah....instead we decided to be sensible and invest in pensions so we could live happily ever after. At least we're still here.     [:D] [/quote] Exactly. I paid in £100+ a month for 15 years into AVCa - I get £579 a year back... No cash-in value.

He turned them himself.

You have a point...

You have to pay extra...

Nurse! Mr Zjob is out of bed again! i can see the picture. Really.

We only had one 'visit' this evening (and one yesterday) so possibly interest is waning. A very cute little skeleton wished me 'Happy Halloween".  Ah, bless!

Is she taking a racing line around the corridors yet?

Yes - we are well aware that we are better off than some. However, I get somewhat cross when my pension becomes someone else's profit taking.

Excellent!

Actually it makes sense, as lagers get stronger.

I can't remember the last time I saw something so hilariously funny.

But he drank Worthington White Shield, which makes him OK in my eyes.

Worth almost nothing. I will get back less than I paid in.

I was at the bank today. My investments for my retirement are now largely gone. And yet the CEOs get theirs and their bonuses...

[quote user="Val_2"]For my sins I just love leeks sautéed in butter until soft and then a dollop of crême fraiche and some parmesan cheese stirred in - lovely.[/quote] You temptress! Mr Donovan should meet you!

[quote user="NormanH"]Perhaps a good reason to stay in the UK, since you obviously find it superior[/quote] Ah! It is not permitted to suggest improvements to La Belle France, then?

[quote user="PeterG"]Percy Shaw invented the "cat's eyes" after driving home, one foggy night, from Halifax..........His car's headlights reflected in the eyes of a cat which was walking toward him, along the road . This gave him the idea to invent the cat's eyes, for the safety of drivers.         If the cat had been walking the other way.....no doubt, he would have invented the pencil sharpener. [/quote] Trevor Bayliss tells this story when he speaks at schools. The teachers fall about and the kids look bemused...
