Congratulations to Owen for being incorrect.

Congrats to Fruitcake for being handsome, and entertaining as well!

However, uncongrats for not knowing the difference between the contraction "it's" and the possessive pronoun "its".

There was a time last Century when I was young, fit and handsome, I was still fit and handsome when I started this, the young part of the trio had already gone. Now it seems I am just handsome as the fitness has gone the ...

Congrats to me succumbing to curiosity and seeing what the old place is like.

Much the same but less it seems.

As I approach my 60th, I decided to revisit some old haunts.

Lo and behold, on my list was this crumbling e-mansion. I looked over the overgrown lawns and recalled fondly the days we had decent gardeners snipping individual blades of grass with blunt scissors Mr Changsha had so kindly provided ...

Congratulations to this thread as it rolls inexorably towards 100.000 viewings.

Who would have thunk it all those years ago.

So here's a thing.

I decided some years back to rewrite the standard global medical Policy for the industry I am involved in (a specialist sector of the marine industry).

I realised the Insurance companies had been raking it in for years as the sector I am in tends to have very fit, healthy ...

I always knew she wasn't all bad.

-Personally I'm fine with having a restructuring of Greek debt and possibly even writing off part of their debt. But this should ONLY happen outside of the Euro. The Greeks should still feel the punishment and get kicked out. If the Eurozone wishes to retain any credibility and leverage, the ...

I cannot fathom why this question is even being discussed.

After all Soccer/football is a nancy boy game with overpaid idiots who whine at the slightest thing.

Talk about a real game like Rugby for goodness sake.

Not long to go before the best World Cup tournament kicks off! (Guess who has ...

Posted this in the Cyprus thread, but think it is relevant here as well:

Ok Fruit, what's happened? Besides me not getting my heated shop... Has Cyprus gained any economic ground?


It's been some time, but seeing as we have the Greek crisis occurring, I thought an update on Cyprus might be a ...

You have just got to love those Greeks.

Those who have read my posts in the past will know I have been shorting the Euro for some time. This is the icing on the cake.

An investment banker dies and goes to Heaven. He is met at the Pearly Gates by the Archangel Gabriel who welcomes the banker and advises him that he can elect to spend the rest of his days in either Heaven or Hell. However, the banker must spend a day in each location before making his final choice ...

A few of the longer running games go the Bandits way recently.

Does BPB want to get the second set out this week? At your leisure, your turn to send out first and then TNC will follow

Just finishing off the internal distribution now

That's Fruitcake for "the bandits are holding a whiskey showdown to determine whose maps get chosen".

shhh, let's not give ...

You little tinker.

I remember this post of yours. I thought, when I first read it, you were talking about Annika Hansen

Next one please.

Ok, I gave nietzsche a point for thegreekdog's post and I reported betiko, so hopefully the mods give him a stern talking to.

I'm pretty sure they don't sell peanut butter at the Cayman Islands branch of the Royal Bank of Canada

One hopes those rash words don't come back to haunt you.

Some great games this weekend.

The England/Ireland game was pretty epic imho.
