    Stevo's fine.
    You'll be hearing from one of my minions in the morning :wink:

    And I'm sure your minion will have a cunning plan.

    ...although highly belligerent and not nearly subservient enough. Methinks he needs a short spell in A wing to put him in his place.
    I hope that is the left wing.

    The A wing is where seanthecon served his 'back alley apprenticeship'. He was originally arrested for selling 'Lines Away' to the elderly in the Redhill area of Surrey. When he was in, A77 and I pimped him out to fund the purchase of new bike bits.
    Now it is Stevo's turn. :wink: I got my eye on a Master Olympic and need some cash. It will be easy as pie to get him a stretch - he's been cooking the books for years for the super rich.

    Not too quickly, otherwise I won't be able to give you that advice :wink:

    Imagine if Farage was our PM. OMFG :oops: :oops: :oops:

    Why? would he be any worse than a toff from Eton, employing his mates to run the place? whilst playing "I love the NHS as they helped my dying son" card at every opportunity.

    anyhow, I blame Cnut of Denmark, he was the first to invade and that led to
    one in the eye for Harold and then Edward took power, which led to a minors strike and blackouts.
    When did the children strike? Can I get my kids to take their jobs? About time the scroungers started paying their way.

    I thought this thread was a s dead as Anglo Saxon culture, but it's still going.

    Thank christ it went off topic.

    When you've given me the advice Stevo, i'll decide whether it's good enough for you to not get a stretch. :D
    Of course, I could have already started the ball rolling. A77 has a stake in it too - he needs his bike lubed by those girls on the Gnarly website. MattC needs to buy nappies and I am sure T47's Isetta is due another re-spray because the last one was dodgy.

    Anglo Saxons? Bloody immigrants! The Celts are the original Brits and the rest of you should go back to where you came from!

    Er... no. The Celts invaded from central Europe. The Iberians are the ancient Brits and 60% of the population carry their genes according to DNA research. The Celts along with all the other settlers and invaders are not above 7% for any one group.

    Well Britain doesn't have Far Right parties holding positions of power unlike in several European countries. I thnk Britain is one of the friendlier, more accepting nations for immigrants to enter, where they will be less troubled by abuse and discrimination.

    So no I don't think this is a racist nation, even though we could better and some sections of our country are racist.

    All in all, I think British people can be proud of how comparatively progressive we are as a nation. I think it is one of our finest characteristics.

    Really....? an absolute disgrace that because the tories want to be seen to be tough on immigration, so a kid has her life turned inside out, for the sake of a few weeks, its not as if we havnt let in enough wasters.

    It's extradition for you to a foreign land full of short people and teeming with wee 3 legged animals with tartan fur.
