Ray that's shit. Unfortunately there's alot of people like that out there. I call them emotional leeches - as soon as they've got all they need they drop off. It hurts but **** 'em.

I was quite surprised how melancholy that todays death of Peaches Geldof made me...

Now, I can't normally stand these kids-of-celebrities who get a well-paid media career based on their surname... but this kid (despite so many teenage indiscretations... yeah, like WE never had any of those...) seemed to pull it around and make some intelligent and rational TV appearances and newspaper articles, despite some awful things in her childhood.

Dead at 25?  Leaving two kiddies motherless?  Even if you don't agree with my previous paragraph, that's a sad thing, right there...

Yikes, now you said that album name. Better I keep my mouth shut up this time (and not asking questions about NMA's & Conflict relations). 

But I still think it wasn't a stupid question couple of years ago.

Just watched the programme on BBC 1 about benefit cuts/caps i felt really sorry for a lot of the people especially the innocent children involved Couldn't believe some of the rents that people were being charged Gawd the weekly rents were more than i pay per month Surly there has to be a better way

Oh, Hell!  Sue Townsend died! The author of possibly my favourite series of books ever, the Adrian Mole books!

Genuinely gutted about this.

that is sad Ray


the first idea of the water charges in ireland are being fired about. government wouldn't disclose what they will look like and how much they will be because of european and local elections next month. someone mocked one up based on the information available in the public domain. looks like it going to be expensive. a lot more crusty kids which is a good thing!!!!

how could anyone charge for water here. we are the wettest place on earth bar manchester and parts of east and west of the pennines.

give us strength to rise up

Imperial Tobacco closing down soon in Nottingham.

Yes, I know its the evil weed, but Nottingham is famous for,, was famous for,, making Lace, Bicycles, and Cigarettes, now they are all gone. I suppose it is reflective of UK manufacturing in general. We used to be "the work shop of the World", but now we manufacture so little.

Plus my brother works at Imp Tobacco, and has done sine the 1980s

I agree with you. That's sad. There are careers that doesn't exist here either because of the European Union. We used to produce eggs and sugar. Also, cow's milk was produced a hell lot. Everyone drink it, but nowadays the requisitions for a herd are so enormous (and expensive) that the farms should be able to produce milk to every one (well, if not aboard the nation). My cousin's family have done it for the ages. The herd size is doubled to that what it used to be. In the start of eighties there were something like 20 farms producing milk near to them at a local area, nowadays only four are able to do it.
