  1. I was taking her claims of being a credit risk not entirely seriously. Still worth applying though, if you're already a credit risk it's not gonna hurt your rating to have a knockback on your record.
  2. Halifax's Halifax One card has 0% interest on purchases for the first 12 months. Gives you almost til next Christmas to pay it back before they start charging you.
  3. Don't roll your eyes at me, beehatch! Don't go down that route. There are plenty reputable credit card companies with zero interest rate offers on purchases for the first 6 to 9 months. Try one of them.
  4. Is that to help you with your problem?
  5. I do it this way to ensure that I don't dip into the cash during the year. I get the vouchers for Boots , for the female members of the family, and Choice ones which can be spent in sports shops and HMV etc for the usual playstation games , dvd's, football/rugby kits......I am now £550 down and no spare cash I will just have to utlilse my creative talents and go back to the old fashioned days of making the presents " Look at this lovely scarf I have knitted you Mam and all from an old jumper and two twigs" !! Ah right, so it's discounted gift vouchers, rather than money-off vouchers. I see, I think. £550 is a lot of money to just lose and it leaves you in the shit. Just explain it though, everyone will understand. Mind, if you were related to me and told me that, I'd be getting you fuck all in return.
  6. Never heard of it, although I'd sooner bray on the wall and then their door to tell them to pack it in than keep a book on them. Unless you've already approached them without success, that is. We used to have some knobs that would do this when I was about 15. If they made a racket, I would get up early the next morning, wait until my mam had gone to work, turn the speakers on my stereo so they were pressed right up against the wall and play music at full blast on repeat. Let them be awake through their hangovers. What a fucking rebel I was.
  7. That's awful, sorry to hear that. How does the voucher scheme work though, is it really better than just saving cash in a savings account or whatever?

    Shambles

    It's a good word.
  9. Congratulations! Your finally right about something on here! Well done. You're. Not your. Idiot boy.
  10. He completely disappeared in the second half. What about that time he took possession of the ball and it sort of rolled backwards between his legs. He stood staring at his feet as if he thought someone had played a magic trick on him and made the ball invisible. As if he expected it to reappear or something. Turn around you pillock! Or at least step backwards. The fucking thing's behind you.
  11. It's a stupid way of looking at things though. We've got the 5th average highest placed finish, but that finish is 8th. So on average, 7 teams finish above us, not 4. And using averages masks the inconsistency we've shown bouncing from top to bottom half of the table, which points to a lack of planning at the top level. We DESPERATELY need to get rid of the fucking idiot at the top who is dragging this club down.
  12. How fucking pathetic was that? Two or three times Ramage was standing on the sideline and absolutely no one was making any effort to get in a position to receive the ball, the lad didn't know what to do. It's been that way for years at Newcastle. The number of times we give away possession from throw-ins is ridiculous.
  13. Good idea to persist with the long ball game against Bolton like, with their average height of about 7 fucking foot. Which fucking TIT on the coaching staff is either tellling them to do this, or not telling them not to??? Not helping Martins btw. That's the relevance to this thread. I'm concerned about how good he is tbh.
  14. I would be surprised if 100 people have phoned in to register a vote on this.
  15. Zammo off Grange Hill is on and he was just crying cos he fell off something.
  16. This one is a fucking shambles. Watching these idiots try and pull themselves up on this trapeze thing whilst looking elegant. It's like watching the class weed doing the rope climb.
  17. Just stumbled across this utter pile of wank. Put it on if you want to see z-list celebrities hit absolute ROCK BOTTOM. I feel bad just watching it. At the start they panned along the "celebrities" involved and they all had to smile at the camera. Behind every set of eyes you could see them thinking "This is what my life has come to. How did this ever happen to me?"
  18. Thanks for the help people. I took it back in the end. Apparently it's a problem either with the hard drive or the memory. Windows computers are defo shit though.
  19. Have installed a few small pieces of software and some anti-virus/spyware/firewall stuff. Other than that I've not done anything. If I run checkdisk it gives the following message once it's got most of the way through the checkdisk process: STOP: c000021a Unknown Hard Error Unknown Hard Error
  20. Sky have to do it. You need two feeds from the dish so that you can tape and watch different things, so it's a bit more than just getting a box with a hard drive.
  21. My computer started being all gay and three times yesterday it crashed and then gave me this error message. It tells me to reboot with the XP startup disk in.....only my computer didn't come with one. This is genuine, I don't have a dodgy copy of XP or anything. Any ideas? Windows computers are FUCKING SHIT.
  22. By the way, re Dalglish, are you hoping to prove a point by establishing that the last time we had a long term plan that you can hang your hat on was about 8 years ago?
