  1. Danish?! Meh.... could have been worse.
  2. He is a cracking radio present and an intelligent bloke - knows when and how to start a riot on twitter and seems unafraid to raise difficult issues. Liked him as a player (despite his issues) and like him as a pundit. I think most of the antipathy towards him results from him assaulting Ulrika Johnsson and getting caught dogging.
  3. We have a Nespresso machine at home its is brilliant. Decent coffee with **** all effort.....just the instant shite they buy at work that pisses me off.
  4. The help to buy scheme would have been a brilliant idea IF they had implemented it in conjunction with the biggest housebuilding program since the end of ww2. As it stands.... its won't help the rich.... because mummy and daddy will chuck in a bigger deposit to get a lower repayment rate. The H2B scheme will help only those earning £35k p/a and above.... with squeaky clean credit records and **** all savings who aren't already on the property ladder. In short, virtually noone.
  5. Mate, thats a great question! I am grappling with that right now, I think you have to be careful as a gun owner that you dont get brainwashed or paranoid. Ive been asking myself, do i need a shotgun? do i need an assault rifle, if i did purchase them, would it be for the 'right' reasons, i mean technically the shotgun is the best close range home defense weapon, so eventually i may get one, the assualt rifle scares me quite frankly. If you own one of them it is for one reason, to cause as much damage as possible, I dont know if i would feel comfortable owning one, as it would need to be heavily secured, and thus defeats the purpose for home protection. Like i said great question, i dont do much rifle target shooting (only been once) but my buddy whom i talked about in OP is wanting to take me to the rifle range so we shall see if that long range target shooting is as enjoyable to me. Do people seriously own AR's on the pretense of "home/self defence?!" Surely an AR would be utterly useless in the event of a home invasion/burglary situation due to the sheer size of the **** thing. I can see the intimidatory power but not the practicality factor. I can certainly see the point of the shotgun in those situations but surely the sheer amount of mess you are going to make to your own property negates is stopping power? Unless burglars in the US regularly wear kevlar? I can understand the use of a pistol in the home (light, small, easy to target) or a small calibre carbine (H&K MP5 for example) but the idea that larger arms for "self-defence" is laughable.
  6. They don't come with indicators and you have to use the wing mirrors of the person driving in front of you I will inform Mrs E - hopefully a full induction into the world of Audi motoring will be provided by the dealer.
  7. RIP Ads. Sort of already guessed but its tough to see it in black and white. One of the nicest funniest posters on VT.... and a sad loss both here and to society at large. Another Holte Ender in the Sky.
  8. The new Audi A1 SLine that was ordered last week. :D :D :D :D :D
  9. Natialie Portman Scarlet Johannson Julia Roberts [/thread]
  10. Yeah I agree with you, it's not the hunting of pheasants that upsets me, after all that's why they were introduced to this country. It's the persecution of the native raptors that goes hand in hand with it http://www.rspb.org.uk/news/351247-hen-harrier-on-the-brink-of-extinction-in-england I'm not a fan of shooting. Its a **** nuisance and IMO far too easy. I can't work out where the "sport" lies in gunning down hundred of pheasants....however, you appear to be confusing two separate issues here. "Someone involved in legal (if objectionable) activity" and "Gamekeepers doing illegal things to maximise profits"
  11. I would imagine with all the butlers, cleaners and gardeners employed by the Tories that the area would be anything but "dirty".
  12. Its a shitty thing for the Mail to have done. It is indefensible and should have been widely condemned by everyone regardless of political colour or opinion. HOWEVER, I do understand why Cameron has not criticised one of his party's mouthpieces publicly..... Come on chaps, there are plenty of sticks bigger and better to beat Cameron up with....
  13. ? That rumour was rife, though apparently untrue. That wasn't how I typed it !! Honest guv But that aside , its interesting how the rumour went national pre social media , Internet etc ( I think we all know it isn't true , but tbf I was about 10 at the time ... I think it resurfaced later in the 80's for Morrissey as well if I recall ) Did kids write it down on a piece if paper and send it around the country on a carrier pigeon ?? How did the rumour spread so far ? I've heard said rumour attached to several people and alas it can't be true. SNOPES.com (NOT linking to the story at work) confirm that it would take approximatley 3 days of constant blow jobbery to ingest the required amount, which would also exceed the capacity of most human stomachs. ON TOPIC: Lady Gaga - Bad Romance.
  14. OH!! I assumed the bloke was the groom.
  15. So many questions.... so little time.
  16. Its hard not to admire the "couldn't give a **** approach" adopted here. Had the UK coastguard done similar there would be an enquiry and a bunch of bailiffs in waders trying to get em off the boat.
  17. THIS Cheers me up no end. Sink the soap dodging fucktards.
  18. They certainly are for remote portable devices yes...... they are also reliant on the database where the validation data is held being secure. So walking around with a severed finger may raise suspicion but hacking the database to alter fingerprint record data is far less so.
  19. steven gerrard showed the same "loyalty" that rooney did when city came sniffing, and john terry, and frank lampard with barca liverpool offering him an extra £60k a week had nothing to do with it at all... I believe Gerrard stayed at Liverpool for serious reasons , though not sure if we are allowed to repeat them or how true they are On the subject itself one of the best performance I've seen from a player was Gerrard at Villa Park , he was that good that when he took a corner I half expected him to then be on the end of it and header it in the back of the net As for who is the best , well all 3 have been fantastic for their clubs but id probably go with Gerrard In terms of discussing the issue the Daily Fail still have an article on the website linking Gerrard to several of Liverpool's more interesting characters...... it is not hard to imagine the links go further than suggested given the Fail's need to slap such a massive disclaimer all over it.
  20. You can have 'premium' feeling hardware on a high end Android phone though. HTC and LG's flagship handsets feel awesome. Yeah and obviously there are issues with my stance re the iphone.... for example I would never pay £700+ for one when I can have a Nexus that will destroy it on all fronts apart from "premium feel" for c.£250. To use a car metaphor..... you'd never but a basic BMW 5 series when you could have an all singing all dancing Honda for the less money.
  21. You can have 'premiu I can conclude 2 things from this post 1) you are talking in tech speak and I have no idea what you are on about 2) you were typing whilst driving a train and this has lead to some terrible rail disaster which I will shortly be reading about on the BBC.

    needless to say as a 12% I had to look her up I've perved over better tbh I had to Mooney that one too. Eliza Dushku is hotter Somewhere on GoalkeeperTalk GarethRDR just came.

    Smart Watches

    Why not? I always wear a watch (granted not usually several £k's worth of wanky chronograph) but I'd take it off at night and charge it just like I charge my phone. I may be the exception.....but I doubt it.
