    I wonder if the massive German heritage is actually due to ther Americans being generally poor at geography? German probably means "European but not French, Irish, English, Italian or Spanish". Denmark, Austria= Germany. Iceland, Sweden, Norway, Greenland, Finland= Vikings. Portugal = Spain. Anything east of Germany = Russia. Belgium, Switzerland = France.

    7 am Monday 12th Feb. I wake up after an unexpected bit of emergency surgery. I check the results to see we beat the Blouses 2-0. I hope this does not become my "Lucky Thing" to get Villa results!

    The blonde then began a court case using the precedents set by the IVEY vs GENTING CASINOS case with regard to unfair betting practices. She represented herself and won back her money. * A joke for all the solicitors, barristers, casino owners and feminists on VillaTalk. Both of them.

    Don't rush into passing judgement. Give it another decade of thought.

    Try the Financial Ombudsman. I can't imagine this scenario hadn't cropped up many times before. They should point you in the right direction.

    Against. It's no deterrent. Innocent people have been executed in the past. They would be in the future. A criminal could realise that he faces the death penalty if caught. That would lead to more "no-one is going to take me alive" situations and Police/Innocent People will get hurt. Its better 999 guilty people live than 1 innocent person dies.

    I wonder whether Trump loads his dishwasher with the knives pointing up or down? Anyone care to speculate?

    Presently reading my dishwasher loading instructions. There's some annoying gaps that aren'the covered.

    What really pisses me off is not being sure which way to put the knives and forks in the dishwasher. Sharp end up or down? If only I knew what everyone else did.

    I let the dog lick them clean and put them straight back into the drawer. *I appreciate that it's unhygienic and likely to spread disease but my restaurant gets very busy and dishwashers take ages.

    I live in the countryside. It's just hit -7 and it's due to hit -10. Have you townies got a deep frost on your daffodils?

    Ha. I no longer suffer alone.

    Don Amott - King Of Caravans. I've no desire to buy a caravan but I'm still singing the TV advert.

    Leviticus 5:17. They shall light thy tree in the colour of grass and blood, except the fuse bulb which shalt have a dash of white. *Obviously the bible was written before LED lights.

    Hi Danny, A truly thought provoking and humbling post. I have never noticed your posts before you began this thread. I jumped to the conclusion that you weren't English. Reading the reason why it seems that way genuinely made me think. Good on you for raising this. Ps- my English is poor because I was born and raised in Wolverhampton.

    I'm guessing that a competent and fit park team would easily win. On a similar theory, football could be run on a handicap system with the stronger team being given a proptionately larger goal to defend. My question is: Does the world produce enough steel to build a goal that would allow Birmingham Shitty to win a European trophy?

    When I saw this topic on the front page I thought there had been another shooting. I honestly thought "What are the odds of that?" Someone in Vegas could probably tell me. There have been proven government conspiracies throughout history but this wasn't one. Governments are not good at keeping secrets. Nor can they 100% effectively organise overt operations let alone covert ones. A dick with access to heavy weapons goes on a rampage. It's happened before and it will happen again. That's what some humans do.

    I was driving through Small Heath on a match day trying to find a DIY store. I pulled alongside a Blues fan and asked "Is there a B and Q in Birmingham?" "There's definitely a B but I'm not sure about Q. It's a big word." Tumbleweed enters stage left........

    Several years ago we employed a guy with aspergers. He was a great guy but he had a need to hoard and arrange rolls of sticky tape. It became a bit of a joke and when your tape disappeared you knew exactly who to ask about it. Things came to a head when his mother called to complain about all the rolls of sticky tape we had asked him to store at home. There was well over 500 rolls in his bedroom. His employment was reluctantly terminated. On Saturday a section of false ceiling collapsed. We think the 300 rolls of sticky tape packed into it might have been a major factor.

    Many of our laws are based upon the principle of "a reasonable man". Putting it simply we have the right to reasonable free speech rather than total free speech. What you do, how you do it, when you do it and why you do it are all considerations. Two identical actions can be treated very differently depending on these factors. The most obvious example being swearing. A reasonable man would expect a stronger use of language in a pub than outside a primary school.
