Seriously big travel company, lots of flights from Gatwick Thousands may be stranded as XL Leisure prepares to declare bankruptcy - Times Online Frankly it serves them right for stiffing me €45 for six kilos of excess baggage at Malaga airport last month. C**ts.

Seeing Lancashire and Surrey go down simultaneously would be superb compensation for not winning the title.

Do they still have: "Make it KSV for your coffee and tea, your total vending experts"?

You need a rat trap. Get one from Homebase for about 7 quid. Bait it with peanut butter (though because I am middle class, I managed to catch TWO mice using Tiramisu as a bait the other week) Do it FAST because they breed like billyo. I'm afraid it's the only way.

I'm going to bounce this thread because the future Mrs Of Pevensey Bay and I have just set the date for our nuptials. They will be in a TOP CENTRAL BRIGHTON BN1 LOCATION at the end of June next year. One of the things we're taking into consideration is the photographer's ability to organise...

Just watched some iPlayer stuff on it. The picture's bloody ace -- better than in Safari (though that may be due to the new "high quality" option on iPlayer, of course. Once I can get it to render the fonts like Safari and import bookmarks from browsers that are not IE, I'll be happy.

England have DROPPED to fifteenth in the latest world rankings. One place above the chilly Jockos! FIFA.com - The FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking

When I used to apply for jobs at local radio stations, (in the days before streaming on the internet, me laddo!) I used to have to set off early in the morning so I could listen to their breakfast shows. Was on the way to Guildford once when I had to emergency stop in front of a turning car...

Presumably they just filled it up with stories about immigrants from East Pakistan sending average house prices ROCKETING above the £3,000 mark? Anyway -- my birthday involved George VI dying, and the Munich air disaster.

Since when does Sussex HAVE a board of directors? It's a members' club, with a committee, and a management team, isn't it? Or am I just being thick?

My favourite quote of the entire year: "The day Chris Hoy starts referring to Chris Hoy in the third person is the day Chris Hoy disappears up his own arse" (Chris Hoy, on Sunday, after a journalist asked him "What does Chris Hoy think of Chris Hoy?")

Agreed 100 per cent. But do you really think a picture of a MUSLIM on a PUB SIGN is a GREAT idea? :jester:

POLICE WATCHDOG UPHOLDS PEACE ACTIVIST'S COMPLAINT By Tom Pugh, PA An elderly peace activist who was stopped and searched under the Terrorism Act while wearing an anti-Tony Blair T-shirt during a Labour Party conference has had a complaint upheld by the police watchdog. John Catt, 83, was...

I would like to see the statue of George IV at the bottom of Church Street permanently fitted with a BEARD in tribute to this fine servant of our county.

I've got most of the back numbers of On The Up/Seaside Saga. The bad news is, they're in my loft. In Carlisle. I'll only go and get them when I can sell the house. After that, you can borrow them if you like. I reckon it could be YEARS before you get them though.

Boring BBC answer ahoy. It's a bank holiday, so the TV producers who work in the BBC Oxford newsroom (which produces a programme for Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Swindon as well as parts of Berkshire, Northamptonshire and the Cotswolds; what's known as a sub-opt) might have taken the day...

Yes, yes they did. I know, because I never got around to it. :badfan:

It can't have been driven by an AUTHENTIC London bus driver. A real one would have side-swiped Chris Hoy and Victoria Pendleton as they passed him on the left...

a) Villeneuve sounds French b) I've been awake for 26 hours now c) that's enough.

Shunted off the course by someone French, in a manner rather reminiscent of Damon Hill being rear-ended by that cheese-eating surrender monkey Jacques Villeneuve. Bah.
