This calls for an 'Only in America' thread.... http://www.thecourier.com/Issues/20...13_story2.asp?d=100813_story2,2013,Oct,08&c=n How on earth can a judge tell someone in his court "You're still dead" and keep a straight face?
Belated Happy Birthday Fosse, sorry I missed the doughnuts but thanks anyway. Have one of these from me
I would really like one of those, I hate this man as he robbed my pension and ruined our economy (I won't start) all to keep and tony bliar in power for far too long. I am not a violent person but he lives not far from here and if he ever saw him I would have to restrain my fist.
IMO, snow is good usually but excellent when you have skis on and are heading down a black run. How times have changed on that front - I remember on a skiing holiday moaning that snowboarders got in skiers way, I'm guessing it's pretty much even on the amounts of each at a resort over the course of a season.
Google is a wonderful thing, I was wanting to buy a wheel barrow and typed said words into Google and half way down the page the results pointed me in the direction of sex positions.....
Wonderful may not be the exact word... When teaching in Australia, my class had visited an Australia Day exhibition in which one of the events was the chance to talk to a guy billed as 'Australia's last swagman'. The kids were fascinated by him & when they found out he had his own website, the nagging soon started back at school. He had said 'just Google swagman', so we did... Quite why a German sex toy site could be listed under 'swagman' was beyond me & took a heck of a lot of explaining.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr - Just seen that our game at Yeovil on NYD has been pushed back to a 5.30 kick-off as it is now on Sky. I have booked a rather nice B&B just outside Yeovil for NYE and NYD, but Mrs W_Y is less than impressed. She is going to be well pissed off if I get back from the football at 10.30and absolutely ****-faced!
Do any of you guys watch Educating Yorkshire? It is one of the best programmes I have seen in a long time! If a parent ever blames the teachers for their childs failures in school they need to be slapped and made to watch it. It just shows that teachers do a bloody good job to get the results they do on a shocking budget and under immense pressure from completely unrealistic and unreasonable targets. The students these days have no respect for the teachers and think that they owe them something. Teachers cannot discipline unruly children for fear of abuse from parents or students which means the students think they rule the school. We need to bring back respect for teachers and allow them to get on with their jobs rather than having them constantly dealing with bad behaviour. They should not fear the repercussions of their actions, but have faith that they will be backed up. If my teacher wanted to give me a verbal dressing down my mum would have patted him or her on the back and given them her blessing (and probably done the same at home) and as a result I have 12 GCSE's 11 A-C and 1 D, 3 A-levels and a degree.
Your qualifications are not totally down to them, you have had to work hard with their guidance, it's a two-way street Dan!
