Sounds like a fascinating man......RIP to your friend.

Errrr..................

Different fields I guess.....I'm absolutely expected to have a phone on me at all times.
I suppose the kicker is that I very rarely use a cellphone...I'll go for days without using it.
And while we're on...this I-phone 5 thing is a POS....I don't like it.

I'm with BM....Turkey has had a blind-side towards the Kurds for a long time...they're not going to see this issue in a straightforward way...they're incapable of it. As to 'ISIS'....I give them two years max...maybe three at a stretch....I'd really get into it, but I'd end up being very offensive, ...

Hey, you know what mate....I never expected this, nor was I even remotely looking for it. Sure, I've dated some great-looking girls this year....but honestly, WTF do I have in common with a 23-29 year-old??....not very much...I may still look like a kid (OK, a 35 year-old kid)....but I have stepsons...

My Spanish is improving.

I understand it reasonably well, and it's not unknown for me to read a Spanish-language newspaper....but my pronunciation is dreadful...I can't roll my 'r's to save my life.

Can't beat a good strong cup of coffee, problem is I can't drink it at the strength I like after 2pm or I don't sleep at 11pm. Strange how it stays in my system for that long. Been doing errands today, oil for the car, new mirror for mums car, cashing the little fellas money box change in at the ba...

Like that helmet Bratty.

I won't be getting nowt but bills, but I'll be sending out a care-package to some UK troops today....sommit I do once in a while, and sommit I'd encourage everyone else to do......just simple stuff - crisps, candy bars, cookies, t-shirts, etc.....just fill up a shoe-box.

When do you know to pop the question??

Mmmm.....coffee sounds good! I don't think I've had a cup this year.....I drink something called 'Gatorade'....you'll see everyone drinking it at the NFL games. Anyway....I've got people coming over to photograph the house today...I'm doing a short sale on it, which basically means I'll be able to k...

Pre-workout bowl of porridge. If I call it "pre-work out rather than fat bastard fancied a snack after work" I won't feel so guilty. You know something....I've never had a bowl of porridge....same with a PB&J. Actually, thinking about it, there's tons of stuff I've never tried....neve...

Sad....that name goes back a bit....that's back when I actually watched F1....I don't really bother these days.

Indeed....I'm very fortunate...me Dad never made that much as a copper, even as a Super...but me Mam was literally a financial genius...she'd turn ten quid into forty thousand, I kid you not....I mentioned the other day that I'd given Domnic the Valmoto, and my Dad was like "Oh, let me give you...

Err....going to look at a bike....a 675. The deal is great, and I don't actually have to pay for it....don't ask how that works...

My girl asked..."Baby, does my arse look fat in this??"

Me...."Yes, but to be fair, it's a really small bathroom...."

I just got off the train from San Francisco and the porter came running up...."Sir! Can I carry your baggage??"

Me- "No, let the f*cking bitch walk!!"

I got stopped by the cops the other night....the officer said "Hold it right there!...Where were you between 5 & 6??"

Me..."Kindergarten??"

This stuff p*sses me off....I swear, I have an HTC First that I had for months and it was pristine....why?....because I take care of stuff.....lend it to some chick overnight and it comes back all smashed up....frickin' ridiculous!! Have an "I-Phone 5S" right now, whatever that is....I don...

Interesting comments from Lauda, who has almost been fanatical in regards to driver safety.

Hmmm....similar state with schools here....all too often it's the result of a language barrier, or at the very least the perception of one. End of the day the school trades down to the lowest common denominator....and that's OK too, except my kid did not just spring over the Mexican border from El S...
