  1. Violet Carson played Ena sharples, don't think it was her.
  2. Years ago in woolies ,you could buy a plastic Beatles wig!! Can't remember how much, but it just looked like a black shower cap.
  3. That's the rule, we want it, you don't agree with the rules, then it's off with your head!!
  4. And where does Charles get it from?
  5. You can't use nail's, it's got to be girder's.
  6. If cheaper alternatives were available that would solve the problem, but like I said in another post, why does everything "green" have to cost so much more than the item you want to replace?. The majority of folk's don't like being ripped off !!!
  7. thats handy, not a lot of journalism to do in the future, just need to copy and paste that article, job done.
  8. Its still the same down st Ann's, some will say ayup mate can I carry your wallet, jewellery or drive your car for you, whilst showing you their nice shiny gun. The sort of affection you don't tend to see much of in other parts!
  9. Can anyone tell me who came up with the idea of resurrecting tram's, or was there a vote/poll and is/are the person/people responsible still in a job? Just drain the canals, put the track in, get the tram's down there, then flood the canals, no more tram based congestion!! I reckon I could work oops sorry, I mean be employed by the council to make expensive decisions,
  10. Its PC correctness gone stupid, made worse by the boffins in Brussels and Left wing lesbian do gooders
  11. One night, whilst out with the ex and her mother, the ex said "would you like to see me in something long and flowing?" I replied, "yes the Trent". The mil then spoke up saying " that's horrible, if you were married to me,I would put poison in your dinner " I replied "if I was married to you, I would eat it". It was a love/hate relationship, she loved hating me and I hated loving her....the ex then told me that when I die she would dance on my grave, I said can you make that a promise? She said yes why? I said because I'm being buried at sea!!!
  12. What I remember about my ex is, she constantly reminded me that when I was I'll she was there with me, when I was skint, she was there with me, when I was made redundant, she was there with me, when I had to have my dog put to sleep and it broke my heart, she was there with me.. It was then that I realised, she was bad luck !!!
  13. Or if the tram driver could have swerved or stopped...
  14. Wouldn't have happened with a trolley bus...
  15. OK, picture this, a tram crossing university boulevard suddenly gets derailed, due to some inconsiderate sod discarded a fag packet, stray dog, bike wheels stuck, whatever, seconds before Mr or ms lifesaver appears with all blues and two's going full chat, with some poor sod in the back,bleeding profusely, needing heart surgery, holding the side of their face on or whatever, comes to a complete stop because this 100ft dinosaur has blocked his only route to the place of recovery, less than half a mile away. Who is held responsible for the probable outcome!!!!. Said scenario is probable, likelih
  16. When you say, taken to court, is that by bus or tram?
  17. You need to switch your iPad off for about 5mins then switch on, then try. If no success, hit it a couple of times, if still no success, cal out computer expert. That usually does the trick.....it worked for me
  18. It would be interesting to know from one year to the next, just how much they take (profit?) Then balance that against the costs involved in installing it. Perhaps then we can work out how many thousands of years it will take to pay for itself....
  19. Hold on a minute, just so that members don't think I'm being negative all the time about the tram's, I have found a positive point.... When its wet/damp, at least the ABS on the car gets a regular testing, see, not all negative!
  20. What! I stand back in amazement, you mean to say that the tram's haven't solved the problem?
  21. Right then, been thinking about this, so tram's will ease the congestion! How Doe's that work when they don't have to stop at sequential traffic lights, but get right of way thereby causing Que's of traffic waiting for the slug's to cross the junctions. That's just one example, I am sure there will be more....
  22. I think you will find that it was crap 60years ago, and ain't no better now!
  23. I can see there would be some "drawback's" with a road name like that.
