I learnt that Germany aren't quite as good as their first result suggested.

Later I am hoping that England prove to be much better than their first result suggested.

I concluded my research project, proving without a shadow of a doubt that the second I mention the words 'pre-match barby' the sky will immediately go black, and the heavens will open. Arse!!

Sorry iDave, having sex and posing for pornographic images are two completely different things. But then maybe the women you know are different from the ones I know 😉

I suspect the latter is not normally what you'd expect a Muslim woman wearing a Burka to be doing.

Yes, I do have a passport - but I haven't been to any Muslim countries, so I could be wrong of course and am willing to bow to your superiour knowledge of porn.

i didn't see any porn shots, just 'glamour' shots

you assume all 'genuine' muslim women think the burqa is some sort of sacred thing. lots of them hate them. maybe they wanted to take the piss out of the whole idea of burqas?

or maybe they like showing off their bodies.

or maybe i have no idea what i'm talking about....

'glamour' shots eh? is that what you call it 😉

I had to close the page pretty sharpish, but I know a Brian Clough when I see one.

Anyho. I didn't really want to get in to a debate about female oppression in some Muslim countries, it was mealy a quip.

Maybe you're right and the woman in the image was making a political statement. Who am I to agrue with that?

I learnt that being self-employed can be extremely frustrating and dis-spiriting when getting two rejections this morning from two tenders, both of which I was perfectly capable of doing. How much time is wasted by people and organisations completing extensive tendering exercises which you don't win?

I learnt that my Senior Officer at work isn't as clever as he makes out. He said 'ask me one on capital cities' so I said 'Canada' & he says 'I'm not even going to lower myself to that one, ask me another' so I says, 'no, Canada' & he says, 'Montreal..no, Calgary, thats it Calgary'
