Morning all from a very wet and cold E.Midlands :¬( Got 'shed loads' of pdfs' to create for a client....so couldn't ask for a better day :¬)

Morning all.

Off to do the weekly rounds of swimming classes and shopping. Joy.

Hopefully the play.com 16gb sd card I ordered in their sale comes today. Gave one already for the camera, so this will be all ready for the 3DS.

While everyone seems to be still on the topic of the dreaded tabloid, here's a fun site which the DM themselves use to generate their stories. Simply press "Refresh" on the website and a new Mail Headline will be formed in front of you!

Oh dear and I suppose this family business has subsidised his weekend activities then?

Unfortunately rather more than just the 'week-end off'...like from Wednesday onwards; accidents (which can't be helped) equals time away and the 'song and dance' that ensued when his sister took maternity leave...she's not due back until the end of March! The 'hidden' side of the sport I'm afraid :¬)

Saw an article in the Daily Mail the other day where they made a fuss about illegal immigrants working in the formal economy claiming sickness pay. It totally didn't seem like complete sensationalist garbage at all.

Xbox sold for £230 in the end. Will be buying a PS3 next week, along with black ops. Looking forward to trying it out for the first time; new console, new game.

Bit strong - Machie seems ok to me :¬P

If you're in a good mood or offended by the Daily Mail just ignore the following.

Boy, 16, 'attacks mother with claw hammer before cremating her in oven'... because she took away his Playstation

I wonder if the PSP was the cause for all of those arguments that finally made him kill his mother.

Show Spoiler

Looks to me like the claw hammer and the oven did far more harm than the PSP,perhaps the Daily Mail could run a high profile, ill informed campaign to ban those?

Mornin pete,

Thanks for info, but not seen him for a while except heard from his 'sister's partner' that he was getting 'ready' for the new season...not that this made them very happy, because he is supposed to 'do his share' in the family business and isn't :¬(

This is how they're still in business.

Even more unfortunate that programmes like Panorama are heading that way too...
