He'll ban you....would have been even worse last year...

there are five meteorologists in Aberdeen wetting themselves at some of those questions...this guy needs a medal

Jeez that makes two of us then.....Still think we have plenty of leeway

Dangerous comment this week.......

...and so much more eloquently put than a certain cold, wet Friday morning in May at WD's. Have to admit Mark, I wondered if you couldn't send an entry in, after all these years maybe the habit wouldn't die. I hope that in 2008 with you not riding we might get that pint or two Donald

I have a sneaky suspicion he means Birmingham...Alabama tombo

Hah, you all think you've got it bad.....my heart bleeds, you wanna try working for the government say something wrong you could end up in the tower...death penalty still exists in old legislation for traitors....and Scots Seriously, As many of the posts have said if you don't like it then walk. I suggest most employers do what they deem best for the organisation even if much of the time some of them make decisions with their heads up ther Rss's. I've had a couple of long e mail exchanges with Atom and Kinell and suggest they'd be sensible employers (Jeez I just called Kinell sensible ) but they'll do what's necessary to bring in the beer vouchers whether every employee they have agrees or not. Here's another viewpoint, I'm Chairman of our local ice hockey club (again...B******s) and in the past have had to make decisions about training budgets for coaches, whether we have the budget to pay a coach, all sorts of stuff like that. I'll tell you what, the number of sleepless night you have thinking about major issues regarding money, especially money that's not yours or money that the whole organisation relies on to function is no-ones business. Then comes the fun when you have to sack someone or invoke exclusions clauses in the club constitution...Employment Tribunals, Equal Opportunities, Racial tribunals...where else do you want to go. Sometimes the bosses are not the To55ers you think they are, they are just trying to do a tough, tough job. It sometimes pays to think about that. Still can't believe I called Kinell sensible, must be losing my marbles

Gonna start calling you Jeremy Clarkson.......

I was going to censor it for being abusive to fat Ayrshiremen

or deep fried pizza and curries red cola.... OR....joking aside, just keep the neuro unit in Aberdeen Sick Kids Hospital, that's the sickener really.

Yeah Yeah....where's the huff smiley....... , Just goes to show how completely the whole of government can be.

have to say, in three years or so in these forums this is the first post I've read that's unhappy with the service they've had from Lampkins, in fact when mine packed up they took one of another bike to send up to me, really unusual to hear that

Looks like a nice bit of ground Hovis..

Give you that, I need to get into that kind of business, money for old rope Acchewerly....we were thinking about it in here (work) this morning, If you take the Wikipedia idea of the jigsaw globe and remove the bit that is Scotland, aim it back in and use the words: " Scotland, making the world complete" I'm in the wrong job

Is that all you could come up with Brian......

Training is great but unless it's relevant I don't see much point, unless you are about to tell your boss where to shove it. If you are in a profession/career that is highly specialised training opportunities can be few and far between. Our lot run courses you can get into to keep you up to speed with technical developments and theories but not much else.

Well, the lovely Miss Atkinson has gone so just one last look......

Colour neutral graphic display system....

Don't need to get real, I wasn't talking about the uk mate, I was talking about Germany. I'm with every other beggar, cling film round the cameras, spray paint the lenses, set em on fire...carry on, do you need a hand. I have access to a chainsaw if necessary. PS I had three points on my licence years ago for parking in the wrong place, otherwise, mine is fine as well

Kinell told me to say pots and kettles.....

it's the CAMPING gear he's modeling

Atom....please....enough with the Thatcher wub

After last weeks love in normal abusive service is restored...thank god for that!!!
