    Quote - Achelous : "Would it be ok if I started a thread about people who are killed by cows? " Does cows include bulls? (Can someone tell me how to edit a quote into a post?)

    I'm very sorry, LB. My condolences to you and your family.

    I have a folder of things related to your avatar (80mb) which might yield something - if I can find a way to send it to you. Mostly experimental an boring but perhaps worth a rummage.

    The Dead Of 2011

    This belongs in 2010 but seems to have been missed. My apologies if I'm mistaken. Maurice Murphy - trumpet player.

    So do I. Making the journey is still not out of the question but unless I get a large sum of money (which I am owed) very soon it will be impossible.

    I must have been living a very sheltered life. I had not a fucking clue that so much paramilitary material existed on there. I wonder what the Queen was thinking when they met today. There would have been a time when she was doing her bit and he was doing his. Could be what she was thinking?

    How did I get on last season? I must admit I neglected my team which I apologise for. I was juggling crises in the early part of the year, so we will put it down to that... I'm pretty sure you didn't finish last

    Thank you for all your birthday greetings. Don't worry, harrymc, I still pop in here from time to time to keep tabs on things. But not often enough to catch LG's Birthday - so belated best wishes Lady G; I expect you are now old enough to know how to really enjoy still being young!

    Arguable. You obviously have no idea of what he represents! Do you have a problem with the unemployed receiving dole cheques? Just think of all the other less noble uses that your taxes are put to, e.g. Tony Blair's security bill, to name but one of the multitude. I also have a job, as do most of the forum members, and no access to a computer during working hours so when I have time to read the internet I would prefer not to read rubbish like the nonsense quoted above. Perhaps a few hours meditating on the basic values of your faith (which are shared with most holy war enemies' faiths) would be a "better thing to do" than insulting your country's educated youth. Windsor has a refreshingly objective view of many things albeit that he reports them in a subjective manner. At least he has takes the trouble to put his brain into gear before he posts. Start making sense or bugger off.

    Yes, if you're still feeling friendly towards me! How does one set up a friendly, anyway? Click on challenge team. I've challenged you, so all you have to do is accept. I've accepted DWB's challenge, and we're playing tonight. If you accept my challenge, we'll meet probably next Friday (A possible Christmas cracker?) I couldn't find your challenge so I tried clicking the challenge button. It didn't explode but at least that would have been a result! That site is full of mysteries for me. And in a fit of bravery I have also challenged DWB.

    I got home on Sunday afternoon and immediately fell into the early-week cycle of sleep/feed cats/work/feed cats/sleep/feed cats/work... to be followed by a long weekend. But I'm still in a slight daze after an amazing Saturday with the Con IIIers and guests (soon to be DLers, I hope.) It was a bit like stepping through the looking glass! Sorry Windsor but I must say thank you to Ali for organising the meeting and for the exquisite souvenir! Ali, you're a gem. Your Index of Candidates should be counted as the ninth member (non-drinking) in attendance. What a tome! Bringing that along was well beyond the call of duty and a true sign of dedication! It was lovely to meet you all, the first of many meetings I hope. And I hope you've all fully recovered from your hangovers and that DWB is back in good health. There is so much more to say but for now... ...feed cats/work/...

    The friendly against Chile has been cancelled, so you'll get your money back from the bookies? Close, but no cigar. If I'd had a bet on the game I might have gained some money. You'd promised someone you'd try to get tickets to the game and now you don't have to? No, I could have got free tickets if I'd needed them. You were paying the travelling expenses of the Chileans? Your professional services were required at the memorial so you got free transport to your next gig?

    Hang on 'till I get my sat nav out........ What's your postcode? 01510. You could probably land your helicopter in the field just south of the river parched streamlet. Watch out for sheep, chickens, tdonkleys, etc.
