Does Emilia Clarke really fit that quote though? "One of the girls in the show who got her kit off the most in the first couple of seasons" - she had no nude scenes in the second season at all and it seems unlikely she now refuses to do nude scenes, given she was naked in the last episode.

I'd say it's more likely to be the girl who played Ros. She spent half the first two seasons naked but wasn't nude at all (that I remember) this year.

Didn't she die? I dunno.



Anyway, remember that cyclist hitting tweet girl from a few days ago? Yeah, still face-palmingly stupid.

She's sorry alright...

Sorry she got caught. There is no real apology there, just sounds like someone is trying to save her job... saying oh well, this is all social medias fault, it was a stupid thing to say etc.. What about the stupid thing you DID that could have killed a man? No apology for that.

<doh>
 
Wonder how she would feel if some one on a bike smashed into her when she was walking.(apart from pain)

The first instinct of any decent person would be to stop and get help for someone you hit. Anyone who would go on line crowing about it is just a vacuous waste of skin. She is only sorry for herself.

She didn't feel the need to stop because apparently the cyclist deserved it... she had right of way cos cyclists don't pay road tax.

Unbelievable that a company actually hired her as junior accountant.

Just as I'm legally entitled to kill hobos and steal their bindles because they don't pay income tax.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!

This is the worst day ever.

It's Memorial Day weekend. They aired an episode on the same day last year and it lost about half a million viewers, so this time they're just skipping a week.

As for the nudity rebel, it definitely won't be Emilia. I have a suspicion it's the actress who plays Shae because she used to be a porn star and I think she wants to distance herself from that.
 
I've just found the best Firefox add-on in the history of mankind...

It's let me block myself from every single website in the world between 9am and 9pm, apart from our Uni internal server, save for 10 minute breaks every hour and the odd break for lunch/dinner. So yeah, naturally Not606 didn't make the unblocked list <laugh>

Anyone know why Gazza was holding an Argentina shirt in the post-match shots? Has he been called up for the u21s or was it just a bit of fun?

That was the shirt of Union Murphy, the Argentinian 5th division side - from the hometown of Gazzaniga, known as Murphy.

They're traditionally a farming community. They're a small town. Both Gazzaniga and Pochettino hail from there.

Bindle is my favourite word in the English language!

Definitely one of the most rewarding. There's nothing better than when someone stumbles to explain the bag-on-stick-for-hobos concept and you can triumphantly interject that it is called a bindle, because the face of the other person in the conversation will light up as if you gave them a puppy, because they know that they too can now triumphantly tell others what it is called.

Or perhaps this is only my experience. And perhaps that is because I have many more opportunities for this sequence to play out than the average person, what with the hobo killing and bindle-stealing.

That's a pretty big clanger to drop. You ensure clashes? Doesn't sound like a good reason to bring you into a work environment...

While it is an epic fail, to be fair, I did manage to get an interview with that CV before. Also, apparently they have a hardcopy in the HR department which they've printed out and written on so you'd have thought they would have noticed (as would the people who interviewed me before) and had they noticed, you'd have thought they would have said something, especially as I'm pretty friendly with one of the HR people. Obviously it's my own mistake and I'm fully to blame for missing the error I completely recognise that, but it's just like telling your mate that he's flying low or something.

Is it something that was sent in to an impersonal, amorphous HR department, or to an individual? If it's the latter, and you have a point of contact, I'd follow up on it via email (or in person); could turn it into a positive that way, by showing that you care about your work, and it would also be an opportunity simply to get noticed.

Technically the person I sent it to is on leave until Tuesday, there's another contact I know in HR but I don't know her as well but was thinking of e-mailing her tomorrow if I don't hear anything.

In other news, I got a phone call from O2 saying I'm eligible for an upgrade (then my signal dropped out as I was on a train, irony....), so guys which Sony Ericsson Xperia model should I get?
