Thing on at the moment about parents trying to get their kids into schools of their choice. There's just been a 10 year old kid on saying she's desperately worried that she might have to go to the *screws up face* local comprehensive where "all the criminals go!" Apparently there's some who want to get their kid into the local Catholic comp cos it's sooo much better
I can see this programme is going to annoy me. Bratty little shits!
Turn it over then ???
Nah, it'll get some of my anger out
I would watch it so I could shout at the telly for a bit but the other half is busy scouring all the sports channels for news of "his teams" new manager..
Roy Keane? Probably a good catholic school madeth the man.

2*double matresses, decent quality, condition okay, not shabby. Nay pissy stains.
one double pine wardrobe. nowt wrong with it.
You should consider work in sales. Or designing labels to stick on things in furniture shops. I'm picturing a beautiful oak wardrobe with a luminous orange card cut into a star shape with "NOWT WRONG WITH IT" written on in marker.

Have a few bits n pieces, clearing house as new tenants have their own furniture.
If you want anything you can pick it up this saturday or sunday

The above link is a tracker for shares in Newcastle, ever since "take over" talks were first announced our shares have risen by 30p
I'm not one who follows the market, but that can only be a good thing right?
surely it's likely the share prices will go up no matter whether this talk of a takeover has any substance or not though. Isnt it just about perception?
They dont usually jump up 30p in a month, they usually go up down 1p
When shares first came out how much were they?
I believe they launched at £1.35, peaked not much above that (£1.45?). In 2002 they were hovering around 20 pence!
I have some, not a great investment but I didn't really expect them to be. However my Deutsche Telekom shares have performed far worse. Better luck on the bandits tbh.

In the hunt for a good thread.....
A few years ago I made the terrible mistake of finishing my studies at Sunlun university, the reasons for this are complex, suffice to say I didn't realise just how redneck those red n whites are.
I was there for about three years and in that time regularly had to deal with the police/insurance companies/random fights etc. I was attemptedly mugged/randomly attacked/ abused for wearing a suit, for reading a book, for driving my car ON THE ROAD NORMALLY. That poor car was repeatedly attacked by people walking past (it was an old shit heap anyway), etc etc etc. Now I actually wish I'd documented all these incidents as I'm sure I've forgotten how many wrong things happened there. It'd probably be the makings of a horror novel. Once I saw a gang of young lads walking along the street playing with their cocks. I kid you not, and wish I had forgotten that one.
One thing that comes to mind...was living in a top floor flat on a victorian terrace. The house next door was empty for while and during this time some fucker broke into it - found nothing I'd imagine, then had the bright idea to climb in the loft, then TORE DOWN the bricks between the lofts, crawled into ours and nicked a few bits n pieces we were storing up there.
When the police came round (on this occassion) they noticed what a good view our lounge had to look down the street to a notorious dealer's house, they asked if we'd allow an observation post. Erm, no. Thanks. Nice area obviously.
On a positive note I was insured and managed to get a holiday out of it, bit of white collar crime, filthy skunk.
My poor car was eventually written off FROM THE INSIDE by some twunt who broke into it and couldn't hotwire it so climbed into the boot, grabbed the wheel brace and proceeded to smash it up whilst sitting inside.
He was arrested but the bastard police wouldn't let me know who he was.Some fucker crashed into me in a different car and after we swapped details and he admitted guilt (hit me from behind - no question of blame) he came round to my place of work (followed from home?) to try and intimidate me into not claiming on his insurance and I was making it up etc etc, my wife was lying on the sofa for a week in whiplashed agony. CUNT. Daft bastard reckoned he had been stalking me and had video footage of me excercising on a works day out in Grasmere, something I'd never done! Always wondered if he'd randomly stalked someone else or had just watched too many movies.
Once someone knocked on my door and asked me if I 'kna if thes any flats round here been gettin?' so I did get some laughter out of living there.
A friend of mine came to visit and when I opened the door I asked him where he had parked, he gesticulated down the street unfortunately in the general direction of a young mother with pram who took exception to this. She screamed across the road at us 'What are yee fookin lookin at, I'll fuckin knack yas!'.
I remember when the Pantene Pro-V was taken off the shelves in Kwiksave as the kids had worked out if you cook it up and inject it you got a speed like hit. They were going in there and nicking bin bags opening them up and emptying the shampoo off the shelf - only that shampoo. discerning lunatics.
Like I said I've probably forgotten a lot it. Helluva place.
I have lived all over the north east, many parts of the UK (I lived in The Meadows in Nottingham - the first part of the country where cops on the beat wore guns routinely - lovely people there by comparison). I lived all over Oz and travelled far, wide and long on this wonderful planet. Nowhere is a shit as Sunderland imho. And let me make it clear I am talking about the attitude of the morons there. There are morons everywhere but the mackems take it to a their own unique level.
Incidentally some of my best mates are mackems (have all left the city though), and there are some good people there, fuck knows why they haven't left though.
I'm not bitter, honest, just thought this might spark a thread better than some of the cheese related ones doing the rounds.
