  1. A measure aimed at helping only the wealthiest 10% of the population (Dave's real constituency) per the attached from the Institute of Fiscal Studies website. http://election2015.ifs.org.uk/article/conservatives-proposed-cut-to-inheritance-tax-on-main-homes
  2. Actually "Nuno, Nuno".
  3. Debbie Harry?
  4. Interesting prose on the website. http://www.bobs-smithy.com/ Call the grammar police. Had Sunday lunch there a couple of times. They try hard but for some reason dont quite get there.
  5. I agree with you. The worth of a quality product will endure long after the price is forgotten. But, amongst other things, Tesco's expanded clothing area at Middlebrook suggests that most dont agree. The public gets what the public wants maybe? Damn shame.
  6. Is it not the relentless demand from "us" consumers for more for less that forces retailers to drive down the price they pay for the goods they sell?
  7. Blackburn staying up. Only 3 points behind Bolton. Only the 2nd time in 30 years Bolton have finished above Blackburn. Suspect normal service will be resumed next season.
  8. Swing. More. Slowly.
  9. Where to start? I mentioned another few factors that i think have enabled our small country to punch way above its weight since the middle ages. In terms of relevance, I'm unclear as to how our herediaty heads of state have influenced life and driven Britain forward more than our demoratically elected leaders :- Elizabeth II - Thatcher / Blair George VI - Churchill Edward VIII - Hitler George V - Llloyd George And wait until Charles is King Total irrelance in terms of political, miltary, strategic, monetary, moral leadership. Nice palaces though
  10. Touugh shit about the company downstairs :nea: I suppose I'm laughing at the suggestion that our current German extracted Royal Family - utterly irrelevant in the life of this country since about the Battle of Bosworth - is somehow respnsible for the "success" of this country in a way that our early industrialisation/rampant democracy/heroism of our working class/language/temperate climate/tolernce of minoroties/work ethic/time zone/realtionship with the US isnt.
  11. Fat John Terry, you're just a fat John Terry ..........
  12. Comedy genius :rofl:
  13. Sunday with at noon kick off. WTF?
