  1. One of the best guitar pieces written imho ff to 1:15 to miss spoken intro
  2. I think the "why would you want to go there?" can be applied to most places but the failure of Mackems to recognise Newcastle as by far the regional hub is quite amusing. Especially when they start bleating about regeneration. When I was young me nana used to get the provvy man for Christmas presents. He'd come to the door, and not every shop took these provvy vouchers not many did. Joblings in Sunderland did, and that's the only reason I ever went there as a kid. Even then you just had to see it, it's had a bit of a face lift since then and it's still fuckin shit so imagine what it was like then. Obviously I worked there later on in my life and was always accused of being condescending about it. It really is losersville, there are few interesting people, the restaurants are scruffy, 9/10 lads and lasses are complete charvas and they do fuck all about it. Just say no. I always associate Lion Bars with there for some reason. Why? I used to quite like Lion bars but I've not had one in ages. I'd see them more as a Double-Decker or a Boost, a middling chocolate bar that's no-ones favourite. I think I always got a Lion Bar when I went there, and there was a similar bar of chocolate that you cant get now with nuts I got when I went there. Topic's too remember thems. Star Bar? You can still get Star Bar's, I had one yesterday. Very nice too. They called them Peanut Boost for a while but they've gone back to Star Bar now. I'd add that theres nowt wrong with Double Deckers either, bliddy chocolate nazis
  3. When I moved to Forest Hall I signed up with a new dentist. He was the double of this guy; When me and Mrs. Fist went for our check ups I used to piss myself laughing, couldn't get "Bowm-chikka-wow" porn music out of my head.
  4. Exactly the same description of the lass that pulled mine out, oo er, in London. She looked like an owl. Bet she's a hoot … I'll get me coat.
  5. Don't know what sort of pyramids you're used to. Prefer to think of them more like Razzle 'stacks' anyway. Particularly when they contain a bunch of quims arguing with each other. No names mentioned. "Who is that Masked Quim?" And CT, is it a step in the right direction? Two answers ; 1) to getting rid of the Torys, yes, carry on Dave. We're well overdue a civil war. 2) as a point of principle, no.
  6. So why has Dave spent the day apologising?
  7. "Giant"killers Minutes silence please.
  8. Without adding to the quote pyramid CT, as I said earlier in the thread, I think this was meant to be his "look,aren't we playing fair" card before he proceeds to rape those who are already on their knees. By the looks if it, backfired spectacularly.

    hello.

    He still doesn't fucking get it, does he? Kevin, when you walk do you have to hold your breath, or can you do both at once?
  10. This is the crux of the debate on here. There are those that simply think this is the nasty evil tory party out to fuck people over. the majority on here Then there are those who think the Tories under Cameron are a pretty decent lot and are really trying to get the country sorted out.you Neither side will convince the other. However anyone who heard Ian Duncan Smiths's speech today cant help but have been moved by his unyielding honesty and desire to sort out the welfare system. Putting aside the cuts, which are unavoidable, I think the only ones who need fear under this government are the benefit system players and those responsible for waste in the public sector.yeah, lets put aside the cuts eh, then everythings rosy. ffs man, its all about the cuts The cuts were going to come whoever was in power. Even Red Ed is saying that he would have simply delayed them for a few years. Can you imagine Labour after 3 years in power and on the run in to a general election suddenly deciding the time was right to take the right action. Ofcourse not, they would have simply fudged and put it off again, all the while dragging the country even further down the shitter. From a political point of view, the only time any party in power could take this action is at the start of their term in office. This at least gives that party the chance to reap the benefit of the action taken. The fact that the "majority" on here are anti tory is meaningless tbf. There are quite a few young uns, who know little of the world, quite a few of the Guardian brigade like Renton and others like NJS, Alex and possible yourself who have and always will hate the Tories. There are quite a few older wiser members on here who are not as entrenched in their views. Patronised by a cabby, oh me oh my So, since you are old, wise and not at all entrenched in your views, you'll admit that Normal Dave lied outright when they said before the election they would not touch child benefit The best PM of your lifetime is a dirty fibber Correct? Im not sure he did say that? I do however remember him saying their would be cuts and that the exact cuts would be worked out when they took over from Labour. Think the Tories were the only honest party about cuts at the election. Ffs sake man, keep up. He's your dreamboat. "David Cameron was forced today to apologise to voters for breaking an election promise with his decision to withdraw child benefit from 1.2 million higher-rate taxpayers. On a day of jitters and policy wobbles in the Conservative high command, the prime minister acknowledged the decision – announced on Monday by the chancellor, George Osborne – had led to a storm of criticism from those claiming that the axing of child benefit had damaged the party's commitment to family values and undermined the universalist base of the welfare state, something he had promised to preserve in the election." http://m.guardian.co.uk/?id=102202&sto...ild-benefit-cut

  15. Tis only the beginning. This is the gentle slap, preparing the ground for the almighty kick in the jewels to come. " Look, we've even targeted our own support, so the plebs can't complain"
  16. Wrong again Do you break the £44k threshold though? Cant really take anyone srious on this issue who doesnt at least see this as a very good first move. Well off people dont need benefits. What about those with a household income of 80k? Thats why I said "first move". Lets look at the facts. 85% of people currently receiving child benefit wont be affected by this. of the ones who are, there will be some oddities as you describe. These will be miniscule. To make this change problem free you would then have to start means testing every family, filling in forms, more wasted in pen pushing than would probably be saved. I would rather see the 1 billion saving than get all heated up over the few exceptions. You have similar oddities in most current tax systems now. Hopefully this is just the sort of thing that will be tidied up when the single benefit comes in. I can see this being really painful for single-earning familes with several kids tbh, I don't think the 'oddities will be miniscule' either. Easy to applaud it when it doesn't affect you though (assuming you don't declare wages in excess of £44k). This is going to piss off a lot of Conservative voters actually, so in a way I applaud Cameron for being brave. You absolute tit, it only effects people paying higher rate tax!!!!! Yes you have a legal eagle wife and a cushy public sector job so some "poor bint" on plus £45,000 will probably seem hard done by to you Go and tell your little sob story to the majority who are on piss poor wages and see how much sympathy you get. Fucking astounding! Cameron could get up tomorrow and announce he had cured cancer and your response would simply be "What about the blind, he's done fuck all for the blind. You are an absolute tool of the highest order Chomp chompity chomp. Chomp chomp.
  17. Took me a second or two to realise the ref was a Fraulein! I'm slacking!
  18. The town centre has several interesting/nice buildings. They are, however, like diamonds in a field of vomit. It's not so much the architecture which let's it down, as the feeling you have walked into a poundshop theme park. The general air of neglect is overpowering. None of which is helped by the fact it's populated with the most backward, racist, bitter sub-humans on the planet. Durham is nice though.
  19. I'll bet he's heard of Boris Johnson. Next username methinks?
  20. Aged 95. Mr. Grimsda.... Ugh.
  21. Watching it his ankle briefly appears to bend horribly, but that could be due to his entire lower leg being out of line. The encouraging thing is that no mention has been made of any other damage than the break.
