    I was alright until you woke me up.

    Sleeping in the office is always going to arouse suspicion about your work ethic & commitment to the cause.

    I've learned to sleep with my eyes open & in working stance.

    Putting on a DVD and not being able to skip through endless trailers.
    Channel hopping and seeing a film you would love to watch but the quality of image is atrocious.
    A faded copy of a great film, copied onto tape and then digitized. Widescreen cut down to the old square Tele shape and now being shown on a widescreen tv. All the violence and swearing cut or edited out.

    On a similar note, I hate DVDs that don't allow you to fast-forward through the "You wouldn't steal a car/handbag/etc, so don't buy pirate DVDs!!!" - I didn't buy a pirate copy, I bought the actual one. Why am I being punished by having to sit through a message that could not possibly apply to me?

    Which reminds me of a programme on TV a few years ago about a school trying an experimental approach, which included getting to school very early to do exercise before the day began. Obviously the turn out was quite low, so the teacher had a massive go at the children for their poor attendance. That is, she had a go at the children who DID turn up, for the fact that attendance was low. Why not wait until the other children are in, then have a go at them for not turning up? Why punish the ones who actually made an effort to get there?

    When I said take somebody else's, I should have added probably best not to take then if the person is wearing them.

    Look at his face after the wife said she'd got the all clear...

    Would look nice next the fan sofa as well. Tony Watt could sit on it alone - that way he could shout at an opposition player taking a corner and we wouldn't concede. See I'm more tactically astute than any manager Roly appoints.

    Little things really do mean a lot...

    Sunny.co.uk - advertising loans on SKY with an apr of 1295%/interest rate of 292% p.a on a 6 month loan.

    https://sunny.co.uk

    Sure they provide a short term bail out for some but how can these rates be legal?

    I have a bit of a Jonathan Woss myself and got home from work one night some years ago to find that the kids had changed my PC screensaver to a revolving, 'Wubens Bawichello dwives for Fewawi' - mercenary lot!

    Typical. Went to see Zootropolis at the local cinema. A 4 screen independent cinema where the screens are all quite small. No 3d or IMAX. Tickets are only 3.50 and we use it to support them not for the quality of the offering. Whilst the film was brilliant I was wondering if my eyesight was playing up as the image seemed slightly off. A lot of oranges and browns instead of reds etc. Had a word with the staff hoping they would correct the problem before the film started. Instead was told it was a temporary projector and the problem couldn't be fixed. Neither asked for, nor offered, a refund. Had a choice of disappointing my 6 year old daughter or walking out. Stayed and watched it. Either standards are dropping or I'm turning into Victor Meldrew!

    There is nothing imaginary about Jesus. He existed, that is an undisputed historical fact. Whether he rose from the dead or was the son of God or even if there is a God, are questions up for debate.

    On the edge of the lawn, by the rose border. Probably a fitting end for them.

    The question of whether human beings can die and come back to life is up for debate is it?
