The guy has far more money than he knows what to do with (as exemplified by the obscene vulgarity of his family’s lifestyle). Not that he shouldn’t enjoy the fruits of his endeavours, far from it. But there comes a point of being comfortable and set for life, and he is way, way beyond that. In order for people like him to be incredibly wealthy, means that an awful lot of other people have to be extremely poor, and that’s an inequality which needs constant examination and criticism. What, now no-one’s allowed to criticise anyone? So much for Freedom of Speech.

I can only dream of being so open minded.

I’ll read an article about Beckhams charitable work the day he starts clearing landmines in Kosovo or dodging bullets in a civil war ridden hell hole.

How does Mother Theresa fit into this measure of charitable work, the self-promoting publicity whore that she was?

Reported for paging.

Don’t see why not, talk to the retailer/courier. It might cost though.

A property with full airtight insulation, triple glazing, that uses the sun’s heating energy and has a heat reclamation system barely needs any artificial heating.

Won’t these houses that are heated by the (non existent) winter sun, also going over heat in the (non existent) summer sun.
Regarding terraces, didn’t the Swindon Triangle show us that green homes can be built to a budget and to a design that is good enough to develop a community.

It’s all in the intonation, innit?

as I met my wife about 5 years after all this, who I’m still with.

You made a promise at some point. Be a man and stick to it.

So you have to be clever and present it properly. And I bet it can be done in 20 mins (and I don’t even know what the subject is).

Tough to do in 20 mins.

Sounds like someone needs to learn how to do presentations. 😉

6) the homogenised boxes with cheap cues of properties of the past are architecturally bland and completely inappropriate to the vernacular. They significantly detract from the identity of an organically evolved settlements.

This. These boxes suck the imaginations of the occupants leaving us with a population that can’t think for itself.

and what are they looking to achieve as a result of you doing this presentation.

I imagine it’s to see whether the candidates can design, structure and give presentations, no?

And a hypocrite to boot.

Presentation about a presentation. That just might work.

I’ve got a template and slides for that one. Not as daft as it sounds.

‘Brand Beckham’ promoting himself yet again.

‘Sfunny, you make that sound like it’s a bad thing……. Beckham speaks and the world is likely to listen. Gary_C speaks and no-one really notices. Good on him for getting the publicity.

I’ve just passed your details on to the GB Olympic Team pjm84, they’ll be in touch shortly.

Taking the pith thm?
The Chauffeur ftw.

Meh!

Tenerife hasn’t been mentioned..

The Canaries have.
Ronda, beautiful if you stay away from the ugly bits. 😉

Anyone tried smugmug?

How much does it cost these days?
I used to use Zenfolio, which is pretty similar, and was very happy with that.
For the OP, Flickr will be fine.

the. new Ford Ranger.

my mother is not a nice person. i thought she was when i was a kid, but you learn things out as you grow older.

How are you self employed?
If sole trader, there is no need and it could be an added expense that you don’t really want.
If incorporated, You’ll need a seperate business account that the bank will happily open for you.
There are some good deals on 1 year free banking out there.
I believe this is so, but I might be wrong.

and the rower usally ends up moving all over the place.

Crap technique too.

Log Cabin

STW log cabin

i have been a self employed builder in the domestic sector

As a self employed, I guess this means that you get on well with people, you’ll be fine.

No.

I haven’t got that one, sorry.
Also found this.

Which area are you looking for? I might have a few tucked away somewhere.

I’d read that aswell (oops) and saw perv as this:
“Verb

perv (third-person singular simple present pervs, present participle perving, simple past and past participle perved)

(slang) To stare at others in a perverted manner, especially whilst thinking sexual thoughts about them.”
Which is what I thought emsz was talking about. Pawn pages are where one goes to perv, a thread about music isn’t. And trying to justify is quite amusing too.

Why is the aesthetic admiration of the human form perverted?

Who says it is? (I haven’t read the whole thread so a genuine question).

I’m going to give it one more go.

I’d give up if I were you. I hear what you’re saying and I wouldn’t really worry about a group of blokes that have to hide bike purchases from their wives/girlfriends.

His house cost £25m to build. And he has several others!

Well, you would, wouldn’t you?

Companies house if it’s registered.

Northern Spain.

Is this reporting of another post some kind of in joke?
Or is it some kind of weird thing where glupton can dish it out but can’t take it?

Battery is my guess and the freezing temperatures won’t have helped it.

I found lastnight’s episode funny and entertaining.
I like the humour of Mr Clarksons.
I like the way it winds people up.
I’m watching an episode on Dave as we speak.

With so many driving gods about, how is it that I see so many tossers on the roads?
