  1. Lol, same. You do seem to be pretty good at running though, Mike, no? Middle of the pack - probably better than the average man in the street (certainly of my age). But it requires no real skill. I Jest I could'nt run a marathon, im a good runner when it comes to sport but just running, not my bag!
  2. This or +1 or however i am meant to advise these are also my thoughts. Holman, KEA and Guzan are our best performers. I think Guzan has been ok as with the other 2 but feel people overrate because he has a cult status
  3. ha thank's...I think you are mine also...mostly for your rage. I think most people look/hope for a post from you in 'things that piss me off....'

    and yet spelling mistakes would be permitted :winkold: unless you are an undertaker , why would you have to adhere to such a strict code ? Lloyds of London Insurance! you mean that institute that lost £516m last year ? maybe they ought to focus on other things than the dress code :winkold: Well i work for a Lloyds of London Broker, we had a 30% rise in gross profit last year Edit: oh, and we looked positively dashing, while making that increase

    Buying a Suit

    You can tell you are middle aged when Next is too trendy and M&S is stylish Im 26 and will agree on that, i dont think most Next suits would be acceptable at work. While my M&S suit has 2 buttons the top being fairly high, a fairly thin lapel, is a good royal/navy blue and has thin but not skinny legs. I agree on bright coloured socks if you want some flair (solid red or blue are always good choices) and at the moment i also agree on no pinstripes! I have a very nice Power stripe suit but i dont think i could wear it anymore, it just looks outdated. Its all about a fairly darkish grey or navy suit at the moment

    Buying a Suit

    Nuremburg knows his stuff. I wear suits everyday and have to be extremely smart at work. I have discussed it before but a skinny tie would be extremely frowned apon and possibly requested to be removed. So i have a fair few suits as i wear them every day... especially after losing 35lbs in jan-march as i couldn't adjust the 44 jackets to a 38. My suits range in value. i have suits i got made in saville row, from reiss. from suit supply, from M&S and from the local suit place which alway has a closing down sale. Anyway the one which everyone comments on and ask where i got made is the England team M&S suit. its top notch for your price and you couldnt get a better looking suit that looks good in work but still a bit stylish. So id suggest M&S. i know some of them still sell the England one, id get that one if you can. remember, the tighter the jacket (within reason), the better you look P.S it was difficult being an Irishman buying a suit with the English football team crest on the inside but was worth it, i did have to buy a black permanent marker also!
  8. ME, that’s an awfull situation to be in, sorry to hear it! However as we are in the situation *these asterisks* annoy me a lot…. All those words need is to be between comma… I wouldn’t have much of a problem with brackets. There are already 2 sets of punctuation you could use, why have you invented your own?

    Im a Lloyd’s Insurance Broker (an insurance broker who brokes in the Lloyd’s Building, nothing to do with the bank) I would no doubt be ‘advised’ that a skinny tie isn’t acceptable. Im presuming this as I have not tried, a skinny tie doesn’t look very professional in my opinion anyway. What I do know is that underwriters are not allowed to take their jackets off at their desks in Lloyd’s. Edit: you said with the shirt aswell? It would be known that my suit would not be liked! anyway. You are on to a winner with the grey suit, white shirt and purple tie. Although the purple tie in this case would need to be a pattern (like the one above) or striped, not solid.

    Top One! Bottom one looks cheap. Purple tie and white shirt will work well (especially with lighter grey suits) On the earlier suggestions: I would not be allowed to wear a skinny tie in my industry. Please dont match your suit and tie! Grey suit, white or pastel (blue or pink only) shirt and a simple solid, stripped or patterned tie which. Black shoes, Black belt. Keep it simple and youll look sharp. P.S i have boxing later so will cancel out this gheyness!
  11. £10 to VT if we dont sign 2 or more! should we have a separate thread for this?
  12. Im trying not too but a few people on the course have mentioned we seem to be getting on rather well. Yeah ill just see how friday goes i guess then.. Personally id add her on facebook and hope to chat to her on that. But thats just the way i am. get all flirty without the others being around and she can do it from the comfort from her home. couple of messages back and forth and youll both know if its on the cards leaving neither of you worrying about it when you meet
  13. you cant stay with her just because of guilt. Understanding her situation is great but she has to understand yours. Hopefully the situation can be addressed and the circumstances change soon otherwise you cant hang around playing third/fourth fiddle!

    Why, are you pulling the Pope's cap off for me baby....? Haha. No I have a suspicion of which suburbs she may have come from i have the same suspicion....... does she constantly wear uggs and have a normal name with a slightly less common spelling?

    Wait, why am I on the list???
  16. When you ask what happens when it gets out, what do you mean? If a random person found it what do you think they will do with it??? unless your a celebrity random people finding your personal porn is not really an issue. If you are worried about how you are going to look on camera... then maybe film it all P.O.V but you would need a wide angle lens with the camera being so close.
  17. id go Drogba..... If i was in a large final he would be the player i want leading the lines
  18. Why wait, just plan to meet up straight away???
  19. Chelsea, Well I hope so! I could be going, my parents are chelsea season ticket holders. I went to the Barca Game i also put £30 on chelsea to win it at 11/1 before the Semis
  20. why not ask her familly what they think considering you will have to tell them not to book the minibus anyway?
  21. I am more of a voyeur than a poster unless I have something important to say, so obviously the following is really pissing me off McIdiot, McStupid, Mc(Insert word) etc to describe our manager… No, I am not a fun of what is happening to our club and really didn’t and don’t want Alex at our club but calling him names with a Mc in front seriously gets on my tits. There is one poster specifically………
  22. :yawn: thanks for the response. annoyingly i play saturdays, don't get to see us half the time and with Villa being ridic shit under McLeish, it's hard to watch. only team i can see on weekly basis is barca and i have nowhere else to just write an opinion. previous seasons with villa i had opinions but this year, it's just hard to talk about. although the post may not interest you or even anyone on the forum quite frankly, what was the point in your response? just seems pathetic. it's just an opinion within the spanish la liga. no need to respond for it. :| It just seems you go into too much detail, it is a bit geeky, perhaps if you have that much time and enjoy writing that much you should write for a magazine or paper and get paid for it. You have great football knowledge, that is clear from your posts, but sometimes I think you go into too much depth. Well, I enjoyed it!

    if you have a bar it has to be a homage to The Big Lebowski. The Cinema room cant have anything in it, it has a projector(with PS3/Xbox/Wii, PC and Sky) and comfortable sitting/laying
