    Madeleine McCann...

    For what it is worth i have a three year old girl and wouldnt dream of leaving her in the position that they left her in. They couldnt see the apartment from where they were eating, totally different from sitting in Your back garden while your child is asleep upstairs. Look at the map of the...

    Malaria prevention... help please

    I used malarone when in uganda, tanzania and zambia this year. Absolutely no side effects. People i was with were either on larium (crazy dreams but otherwise ok) and doxy ( very sensitive to sunburn). Also take repellant but make sure it is stuff with 50% deet, anything lower and you might as...

    I knew Gove was a prat but .....

    As a parent of a school age child i also think its a perfectly good idea as long as we are informed a couple of years in advance when the term dates are then we can plan accordingly.

    Unemployment up to 7.9%

    There is no difference in the machines but there is in the people using them. If people in the uk were willing to work for a couple of quid a day then i am sure we could compete. Until that time it will always be cheaper to make low tech moulded goods in china. The economy did need rebalancing...

    Campaign to get Ding Dong the Witch is Dead to Number One

    Its not the truth though is it. The statement made was that the sixty odd percent who didnt vote for her opposed her.that isnt the truth. Our elections are not decided on percentage of vote but on seats in the house of commons. And by that standard she had an overwhelming majority of popular...

    Campaign to get Ding Dong the Witch is Dead to Number One

    I cant believe people peddle this kind of revisionist crap - look at me i can do maths. The 1983 and 87 elections were landslide victories in any serious analyst's view. In a three party and more system no one will ever get more than 50% of the vote as the majority of people will never change...

    Campaign to get Ding Dong the Witch is Dead to Number One

    Yeah. Thank god the bitch is dead. I would much prefer it working a three day week with power cuts every day and when i could just dump rubbish in the street rather than having the inconvenience of binmen clearing it away. I would much prefer an economy based on coal mining and shipbuilding so...

    Masters Fancy's

    This is possibly the only sporting event ever where i am in profit having picked immelman (125-1) zach johnson (125-1) and bubba watson (50-1) in recent years. I reckon this year sneedeker, day, westwood and mahan is always there or thereabouts. Outsider perhs d.a. Points who did well last week...

    Baroness Thatcher - Dead / RIP

    Given the various levels of vitriol on this website and others posted in the last 24 hours it seems difficult to imagine that she was the most popular ever post war prime minister and the first to ever win three general elections in a row. All i can say on that is thank god we are governed by a...

    Baseball Season 2013

    I highly recommend the fantasy league for next season. Less than a week in and i am loving it and it has renewed my interest in baseball. My friends in washington recommended bryce harper to me and he has done the job so far. Just forgot to draft any closers in my team.

    Are female sportswomen looking more beautiful?

    Offensive and pretty much libelous as well. As a fairly close friend of hers i can assure you that you couldnt be more wrong.

    [Misc] The Award-winning official "More Snow Tomorrow?" Thread [2024-25 Season]

    Pretty much blizzard conditions in mid hampshire. Missus just got to work at southampton hospital and said the m3 was down to one passable lane. I tried to drive to drop five miles to drop our little girl at nursery and turned round after putting the car into a hedge. Normally they are good at...

    Did You Ever Sit In The Old West Stand?

    Seats A2,3,4 for the whole of the eighties with my dad and brother - in all that time I think a1 was only ever sat in twice mainly as there was a bloody great girder blocking about a third of the pitch.

    The Masters

    This is the tournament i blame for a longstanding gambling habit - following two years in a row when I got Zach Johnson and Trevor Immelman both at 125-1 (£2 e/w). This year I reckon strong returns on Luke Donald and Hunter Mahan and Westwood all a massive £3 e/w followed by my standing Major...
