Deathray 2,940 Posted August 14, 2015 We should probably keep tabs in the incendiary Katie Hopkins; her rant in The Sun today praises the airlines that charge by weight and therefore penalise fatties. She's advocating that as standard policy for all airlines. That'll piss off a few more people, eh? It's fine most of them won't be able to spend long enough moving about to pose a threat to her. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah but she's seriously epileptic so when she fits they'll fall on top and squash her. That's another midweek prime time hour of Channel 5 sewn up, then.

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted August 17, 2015 Edward P. Hourigan, former publisher of The Citizens’ Voice, died on Saturday, at the age of 77. Hourigan, who worked in the newspaper industry for decades, “had ink in his blood,” said his sons, Ed and Joe Hourigan. Looks like we found a cause of death.

Been going on some time now. 5 years or more maybe. If you take up two seats and more importantly weigh as much as two people (total weight of cargo kinda important) then by God pay up.

Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted November 3, 2015 Utterly terrible Telegraph football writer Paul Hayward writes about his battle with cancer here.

mijkediablo 79 Posted November 9, 2015 Is George Alagiah suffering from anything? I saw 6 O'Clock news on BBC last night and thought he looked terrible. I can find nothing on the web to suggest he is but if not why does he look so bad? Called it... Cleared of cancer, returning to work on Tuesday. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-34764659 "All I can say is right now I don't have cancer, but my life from now on will be punctuated by scans every three months," he said. "And if somebody tells me I'm finally cured, it's likely to be years away." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
