How soft is it?

Would it be okay for missus to drive on, just as far as the nearest garage on her way and pump it up?

Those tyres are not really meant for driving on, only to get from scene of flat/punchter to the nearest tyre garage. I would imagine most would be soft anyway...

In that case - try plan Z:

Jack up the car, drink the rest of your alcohol, put yourself under said car and pass out... The woman will be more concerned about YOU than the bloody tyre at 7am! Mind you this won't work with the cold hearted bitches.

Garp is a good film but read the book first IMO. If you like it youo will love the rest of Irving's stuff.

Fair play, not easy to do.

so in the last year i have gone up to around 10 st 11lbs , i was giving out non stop about it for the last 6 months but did nothing about it!

so when we went on hols i said to him "do you think i have a lot of weight on" and he said yes i think you have loads on, you actually look like a body builder lol

im so happy he said that to me as thats what i needed to start the diet!

I got an Acer R3610 as a HTPC and installed XMBC. I'm busy getting all my DVD\CD collection onto external HD right now.

It's pretty good but I am still struggling to get my screen resolution 100% to get a perfect picture on downloaded files. Most of the time it's unnoticeable but in close-up shots the background pixels are flickering away and it's annoying. Seems to be the TV (Sony Bravia) rather than the HTPC as the picture from these files is perfect on a laptop.
I have the screen resolution set to 1280*720 at 60HZ refresh rate.

playing stuff on things like the RTE Player is great. I haven't tried streaming soccer matches or anything like that yet but might give it a go this weekend.

all set up with RS\jdownloader too.

I might look into Boxee and other such things once I get everything digitalised.

interesting and presumably he won't be getting many transfers from Burton, Higgins or Varadkar so will struggle to get over the line. Varadkar supporters should tactically vote Nulty No. 2

it'd be a fitting end for him

The young lad will be more than old enough to sort me out at that point for health problems anyway!

This whole bond thing seems to be a way to get at your pension earlier, from 50 up, which may or may not be appealing to me. I'm guessing it's a bad thing for an individual if the financial companies are pushing it.

Has anybody looked at it, or got an opinion on it? I saw a thread on boards the other day saying that some company had worked a way to get money out of pension funds early, but I'm guessing that's a scam or a misunderstanding on someone's part.

That she is, apparently the BBC have edited her song which she's not happy about.

Originally posted by AolNews

Rihanna has responded with an ironic dose of profanity after the BBC heavily edited her new single, 'S&M'.

The controversial song had its name changed to 'Come On' and some of its lyrics were censored on the Radio 1 Official Chart Show on Sunday (6 February), reports the Metro.

And she took to Twitter to express her dismay, saying: "Are you f------ kidding??? I'm on it!"

A number of words had been censored in the song, including "sex", "chains" and "whips". The single, which features the chorus line "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but chains and whips excite me", reached No. 20 in the UK singles chart this week.

I played that last night. Got AA cracked in a 3 way allin pre by AK off who four flushed. Was gonna be one of the chip leaders about half an hour after the first break if I'd won that. Still feels a lot better than what happened to you. I had a similar one just the night before to that with QQ going down to 99 to finish 14th in a tourney on FT.

You gotta be happy though with the fact that you are going deep in that tourney regularly. Chin up you are gonna win that tourney again very soon.
