  1. Magnificent Gareth. Absolutely brilliant. Tik a boo son.
  2. I think £50-80k is the next tier down from the super-rich in the central London demograph. These are the people who are going to be squeezed out by the government's policy on non-doms which drives central London's housing inflation. It will just mean the further gentrification of places like Brixton, which is already happening. Poor people will inevitably be displaced by a mixture of market forces and caps on housing allowance. The government need to get on with building the new cities they know are required to house the displaced poor and the imported poor. Quick Question - do you live in London or the South East?
  3. I find those stupid spot quizzes we subject politicians to completely irrelevant. It has no bearing on anyones ability to do their jobs. I don't know the price of milk, the cost of a tube ticket, the name of 3 olympic women gymnastics, or what the Saints Day is on the 5th Sunday After Pentecost. Boris is essentially CEO of a very large company. I doubt the CEO of Tesco's know the price of milk or bread or a 4 pack of Stella. I wouldn't expect him to. Their lack of detailed information is no indication of their abilities but rather a somewhat pointless stick to beat them with. (I make no judgement on Boris as Mayor since I'm not a Londoner and couldn't give two shits how good/bad he is). Personally I think he is a very intelligent guy who holds some pretty weird views on life skewed by his education/upbringing. Sadly, because he is a bit of a clown he is forgiven for a multitude of sins.
  4. I had a Hero quest one. It was amazing. There is huge potential for someone who is chronically underemployed on VT to create a thread like that.
  5. How I wish I was Amy on Celebrity Jungle's microphone cable.
  6. Time to atop doing tests and get down the doctors. Congrats, our second is 4 months now, I can't get home quick enough after a days work. Having children doesn't end your life, it creates a new chapter. Yeah she went to the docs on Friday, all they did was tell her its impossible to get a FALSE possitive test and made an appointment for her to see a midwife on the 27th and said we will probably get the first scan in January, its wierd that I can't think about nothing else now, even thinking about what happens if she has a miscarriage, its frightening (I didn't mean to have FALSE in caps, but my phone for some reason puts TRUE and FALSE in caps lock) get used to it...you've got 18 years at least of that feeling.

    I concur. Can't see the appeal myself. Like going to a restaurant and watching everyone else eat.
  8. Oh forgot about this thread. Mrs E due April 14 with Princess E 2.0 Congrats Jimzk5 life will never be the same again.....
  9. The new VT android app is very nice.
  10. I understand Benteke was crap on Saturday....but if that happens he won't be able to run properly for days.
  11. I don't give money no. I have occasionally bought the Big Issue, I've offered people a coffee and had it declined more often than not. Actually - question on the Big Issue - is part of the deal that in order to sell it you have to be homeless?
  12. Even on my shitty laptop that barely meets the minimum system requirements its amazing. A masterpiece.
  13. Just picked this up in the Steam sale. WOW.
  14. Equally, basketball is roll on roll off subs so no player ever plays the full game and changes are made regularly. Footballers play 90 mins 2/3 times a week on a regular basis.
  15. I want to play this SO badly.
  16. No we don't. Everyone has the right to a fair trial and everyone has the right to effective legal representation regardless of what they have/haven't done. You can't fight the devil with the devil's weapons. You may have been confusing Cherie Blair the Prime Minister's Wife with Cherie Blair the QC. Same person different hats.
  17. Ian Watkins pleads guilty Ian Watkins, singer of Welsh rock band Lostprophets, has pleaded guilty to a series of child sex offences including attempted rape of a baby. He had previously "furiously denied" the allegations. The 36-year-old from Pontypridd had been due to stand trial at Cardiff Crown Court alongside two women. Watkins pleaded guilty to attempted rape and sexual assault of a child under 13 but not guilty to rape. This was accepted by the prosecution.
  18. Murray is absolutely nailed on - although Farrah is the more impressive IMO and actually in possesion of a discernable personality
  19. On the fuel issue - yes. The both the VW and the Landy run better on Sainsbury's and Esso fuel compared to BP and Tescos.

    Doctor Who

    Capaldi will be different but equally fantastic. They have got the casting bang on every time in the reboots. They always seem to pick the actor they need at the time and Capaldi will be no different.
