    Liverpool - The city

    Always find it the opposite. I find the people open, funny and up for a good time.

    Liverpool - The city

    Been up there twice this year, fast becoming a favourite city. As mentioned both Panoramic 34 and The Titanic (the wrecked building next door is where they filmed Peaky Blinders) both recommended. Vibrant place.

    Should the Norman Bettison book be banned?

    Slightly different for a public servant?

    Should the Norman Bettison book be banned?

    The question for me is 'should he be allowed to profit from this'?

    [Politics] Brexit

    I'm not making that assumption but then if you were interested in what I said rather than your own agenda you'd see that. I am merely heartbroken for those in my own personal sphere who have had their lives ruined by Brexit. This the micro rather than the macro, the personal not the impersonal.

    Whilst sympathetic I'm not as cavalier with other people's lives.

    [Politics] Brexit

    I can't speak for my employees but for myself you couldn't be more wrong. The short sightedness of successive governments to the the problems of mass immigration is nothing short of a scandals. Cameron's abandonment of the fund to compensate for immigration (albeit inadequate ) a terrible move...

    Thank you. I think I'll be okay but a lot of the people who work/worked for us aren't going to be and neither are their families.

    Surveying. If you are interested the 2 archeological and geophysical companies (which are the canaries of the business) took those hits immediately. The others - topographical, measured building, underground- are following.

    Our order book, which is only about three weeks, fell by 65% overnight. It hasn't recovered. Share your top tips for managing that.

    I'm fully expecting it to be.

    You'll have to excuse my lack of a sense of humour about this.

    The one I get fed up of is "bad loser" like it was some kind of Corinthians' match. Those of us who are losing money and having to lay off good, hard working, by and large British workers who have no hope currently of re-employment have, I feel, every right to continue to make a protest against...

    Stockdale poor again

    I thought he was partly at fault for both and the tricky footwork in his area I find inexcusable.

    Ched Evans moved?????

    I wouldn't and I don't think anyone who's ever spent anytime thinking about our legal system would. Perhaps the Scottish version of 'not proven' is clearer.

    Name The Top Three Living Bands/Musicians You Want To See LIVE Before You Die

    Good thread. I actually thought about this a few years ago. Everyone including myself was hurtling towards the grave. List read. Neil Young Bruce Springsteen Leonard Cohen Tom Waits Paul Simon I'm seeing Paul Simon next month in Manchester and that will complete the list. We can all die happy.

    What singers/musicians have you seen live that are no longer with us?

    Of those listed 13 plus I'll add The Sensational Alex Harvey and Bob Marley. Bit apprehensive for Paul Simon who I'm seeing next month.
