Off Topic The Goodhand Arms

First essay due Monday. It's so stressful doing loads of footnotes/references/bibliographies.

 

Harvard system?

 

Yep! Did Oxford for my EPQ, but I think they're pretty similar.

 

Don't know where to put this, but I have some inside news...
...it's not that important, but Forster's buying a house so looks like he's planning on being here for the foreseeable future.

 

I should bloody well hope so too!

You know nothing. Try 3 1/2 hours stuck in traffic with a screaming baby. It will drive you to the very edge of insanity.

 

They've "revised" our contribution to the EU (already one of the highest) up by 20%, and given us one month to pay.

They can **** off.

 

My student loan amount was 'revised' as well and I was given about a month to pay (turned out to be about 5 days because the post went to my old house).... should I have told them to **** off as well?

 

That's the saddest attempt at a comparison I've seen in a long time.

 

The rules on contributions are very clear and were negotiated some time ago. If (and it's a big if) ministers have only just been told this, the civil servants responsible for keeping track of what's going to be due should be reprimanded.

Just because some journalists are painting it in Shock Horror! terms doesn't mean it is.

And as for having one of the biggest contributions, we have the third largest economy in the EU, so what exactly do you expect?

Some lucky ****er has just won £150million.

 

Yup, cheerio, you bunch of povs.

Poland's economy is growing faster than ours. They get a reduction. Explain.

 

Indeed. I don't know why Cameron is getting all steamed about this and backing into a corner. He's going to have to pay it eventually, so get it over and done with. We are not a nation of Daily Mail readers.

 

I haven't checked my ticket yet. Could totally be me.

I'm not going to check my ticket either so I can keep on pretending that it could be me.

 

Right up to the point where someone else claims your winnings, no doubt.

 

The increase is based on the "black economy". The EU are making money off crime.

 

Unfortunately we are a nation of Mail, Mirror and Sun readers. Not us, but the majority. ****s you up because they will decide a lot of our future.

 

An accountant can do whatever they fancy with figures. Is the growth rate based on %, because % is the curse of many mis matched figures.
