Thinking of joining a Union because my employer made me work NINE HOURS today.NINE!!!

While you're at it don't forget to enquire about meal allowance, wet money, danger money etc. Why not work for a govt dept if you're not already, they work 7.5 hrs & get paid for 8! Or has that changed now?

Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

This. Not only for what he did, but he is terrible at the job. He drove me away from Radio Sport in the morning. Oh for the days of Devlin on breakfast then Graeme Hill in the afternoons.

Agree. I hated it when he was on breakfast. He has a terrible interviewing technique and all he wants to do is talk rugby with the overseas correspondents.
I wonder if this means the end of Mark Richardson as well.

Could burn your finger and with a teaspoon you have to wash it.  I'm with uiron, highly irritating.

Nah, you won't burn your fingers if you do it right. Get the tea bag to float with the edge of it poking above the water, then just use you finger tips. Don't be a wuss. If you have to use a teaspoon, just rinse it afterwards. Anyway, we don't use teabags with strings attached. Eeeuw, reminds me of something else that have a string attached. Wongo2010-10-20 23:41:46

Actors Equity & the Helen Kelly (CTU) for, almost certainly, loosing The Hobbit to an overseas location. Also, the teachers for asking for a pay rise. This is not the right time for one, we're still trying to recover from a recession.

China needs to get it's sh*t weathering it wants to knock the U.S out of their hyper power status. I.E, they need to play the U.N game.

We will never fully decide who has won the football.

People  that are so impatient and stupid plus lots of other words (i do hope you crash into a pole and kill yourselves  no one else involved of course)  they have to pass another car in a 50 km/h zone in a residential street while kids play on the side of the road 
Isn't the first time i've seen it happen

I've learnt my lesson. Rubbishing CS Lewis is to Christians what showing Mohammed is to Muslims.
