Thnks for that EDOldie.

However I'm going to have have to balk at Joseph Heller's diagnosis on the grounds that the book was good, the film was shit and I hated Good As Gold.

I demand a second opinion from John Kennedy Toole.


Oh. Yes, all right then, his estate.

When I get my hands on the germ spreader I WILL strangle 'em. After I've fully recovered from this man type flu thing. AND if old ppl or pregnant women think I'm going to give up my seat for them on the bus this morn just try it! My pain is too much I tell ya! :-(

Well I rather not give the name, but it was a good one. Approved it was.

Best of luck cdonline, I have been feeling the effects of my smoking recently, usually after heavy weekends. I know I should stop, I know it's a stupid habit, but I just don't really want to :-S


Today I just feel very Fridayish, meaning I'm sat at work, watching the clock...

It will be hard to say goodbye to the glamour of lighting up. The kids need role models like us, counteracting the prissy overbearing non smokers.


If I do give up and have any cigarettes left, I will, of course, be charitable and hand them out to the kiddies in the park. Pay it forward.

    • That is true, but that short burst of intense noise can cause life-changing, long-term damage and consequences for pets and their owners. A quick internet search shows there is a developing craze for as-loud-as-possible fireworks- the emphasis is on how much of a bang they make, not on the visual aspect. What is it that people love so much about this and why do they think it is okay to impose it on everyone else? I am appalled that the government clearly have no intention of doing a thing about it. Our allegedly 'green' council should probably take a closer look. If we start having fireworks going off every night for 6 months of the year, that is going to have a variety of environmental impacts.

    • The amount of fireworks noise over a wide area last night couldn’t have just been teenagers messing around. I’m presuming that St. Andrew’s Day (or the eve of) has now been added the ever lengthening list of dates that some people feel need to be marked with ordnance. It doesn’t really matter whether the police or council is responsible for enforcement; if the launch site or the person lighting the touch-paper can’t be identified, how are they supposed to do anything? The only solution is to end the sale of fireworks to the public, which the Fire Brigades Union has lobbied for for decades. All governments since the ‘70s have resisted this. Otherwise, pressure local councils to withhold licenses to retailers. More regulation not less, which goes against the mantra of both Labour and Tories. I personally don’t give business to some local newsagents, who now spend a quarter of the year promoting the sale of fireworks.
    • Hi, Is the worktop timber?  I may have one, I need to check sizes later today.  Would a spade bit do or do you specifically want a hole saw?
