    Serendipity, I don't think they did pay top dollar actually. I recall a rep of one of the buying companies on TV saying something about paying 30-50% - and something about market value, but there was a sudden shout from one of my kids and I missed the bit saying…

    Borscht is right, when I was little I fell off the top of a slide, maybe about 9 or 10 feet above the ground, landing on my head on hard tarmac. My mum was standing right by the slide, but there was nothing she could do to prevent it.

    I…

    Where does it say that the bars had edges that have been phased out of the newer versions? They look as though they just have peeling paint to me, and the article - which is all I have to judge by but may be way off the mark - states…

    New and safe stuff, fatloser? How do you think a new overhead ladder would have made such an accident less likely?

    And I agree 100% with northlondon that JT is always publishing deliberately inflammatory articles and headlines, precisely for the purpose of getting of us foreigners worked up. I try…

    This whole marijuana thing is confusing me. Are they actually testing all the sumo on a regular basis? If so, do they test all the members of the same stable (or whatever it's called) at the same time? After all, they pretty much do the same things and breathe the…

    Derek Trotter? George Roper? lol! There seem to be unheard of (by me) Brits popping outta the woodwork tonight, innit?! Unheard of on this site anyway - I'm well old enough to recognise the names (unfortunately!)

    But George, you screwed up a bit by including a 'strewth' in your posting!…

    Poor little babe. I just hope that he died of natural and unpreventable causes before he was dumped. Not likely I know, but I can only hope. Even if he was already dead I don't understand how someone could dump their own baby's body, or someone else's baby's body for…

    I was told by a Japanese person that voting is a waste of time, because it's like trying to select which you prefer from a cockroach and a louse.

    Looking at Aso in particular, I feel I can understand that point of view.

    ‘‘cultural misunderstanding.’’? They think Muslims are dogs, and that's a cultural misunderstanding? Amazing.

    It doesn't make any claim that they were ever actually proven to be militants of any sort.…

    2 middle aged men, at least one of whom had a violent temper and the physical capability to use violence against others. Would YOU step close enough to smell their breath? I sure as hell wouldn't. As for monitoring, some patients don't actually need any. Depends on the situation.
