Bedford Roughyed Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Just dozing to Radcliffe n Maconie on the iplayer while at work (its ok if anything breaks it will alarm...maybe...). Woke up to hear an email being read referencing someones little brother who's in a container in the hindu kush. Said brother is learning the concertina.... With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haloman Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 (edited) Last night I had a disturbed night's sleep. For some reason, I kept waking up with the Danny Kaye song "The Kings New Clothes" playing inside my head.

saintsbird Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 This is my last Thursday afternoon off. from next week I will be working all day Thursday. The extra money will be a blessing. Following on from the ambitions thread my boss said to me today, when talking about future developments, that she wants to get me up to Nurse Clinician / Practitioner rather than employ another GP.

ckn Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I just got a nice email from Scottish Power. I noticed in the news last week that they were putting up their domestic fuel prices by 10% (or so) and was waiting on the formal notice that my bills would be going up. Just received an email telling me that because I was on their online saver tariff (where I do my own meter readings) that my fuel prices were staying the same and would stay the same until at least June next year.

Tiny Tim Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I got a nice email from tesco wine. They were supposed to deliver a case of Rioja a couple of weeks ago but beacuse of the snow they never turned up. I phoned their helpline who told me the wine was at my local store but they were too busy to deliver it and I could collect it if I wished. I reluctantly agreed and they refunded the delivery. I picked the wine up a couple of days ago. This morning I got an email from them apologising for not delivering and refunding the cost of the wine...and the delivery charges again. The refund also covered a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckn Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 A very good friend went bankrupt today. I've never heard someone so happy now that he doesn't have to deal with the pressures of debt since his company failed. He's been severely depressed for about six months since his business died and the debt collectors were getting more and more aggressive in their demands, he had one "debt collector" at his door on Monday threatening him with everything from jail to being summarily evicted over an unsecured debt. One of those free debt counselling services recommended bankruptcy, he scrounged together the money ( "When in deadly danger, when beset by doubt; run in little circles, wave your arms and shout" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously considering turning the lights out Why are they telling you???? They should also be ringing U U to get it fixed, or do they think you should? Stick a note on your door telling folks who to ring, just as you have, and inform them you, and your rabid rotwieller and semi-trained pit bull know of the leak. Then open the wine and relax. Wires record breaking 10 match run: L 16-17 ; L 34-36 ; L 24-44 ; L 20-38 ; L 8-46; L 14-26 ; L 20-40 ; L 22-48 ; L 14-20 ; L 8-60. Thanks Jimmy.The Glamour Club. Apparently.
