  1. Yeah, I said, let's have a Christmas movie night, I said to my daughter and granddaughter, we'll watch this new Eddie Murphy Christmas movie.
    For the love of god, 4/10, not sure my daughter or granddaughter will speak to me ever again. 
     
    That's 4 more than I would give it.
  2. Back to the "squinty door" reference I once had the dubious pleasure of standing at that door (hoping that the lean wouldn't suddenly become a replica of the leaning tower of Pisa at that moment) face to face with our recently deceased monarch and her Ma (long since passed)!
    A wee bit like John Peel in the presence of his many musical heroes I somewhat froze at the moment and gazed her out, totally speechless...... one of the lasting memories was to remember to try and clean my teeth twice a day as her Ma had the worst set of molars I had ever set eyes on!
    Why were you looking it her mouth that deeply that you could see her molars?

    I thought it was quite apt for the 1st 2 that posted emoji14.png

    Pity it wasn't titled "Feck all 3 of them". :whistle

    Edit: I have a strange feeling this +1-ing may just keep continuing. :D

    Sadly I believe this to be true. In fact, if we're only talking league games then I'd extend it to our next 5 games. Of course we can get 3 points at home Killie, but if we play as we have in all matches recently bar the RossCo home game, then I fear a point is more likely. Can't see us getting anything away at Hearts/Aberdeen, or at home to Celtic/Rangers. Unless of course we can unexpectedly return to our early season form.

    Well, we unexpectedly lost our early season form, so I don't see why not.

     

    In fact, I expect us to unexpectedly return to our early season form. :D

    I have never really understood why a public company, run by the right people in the right way could not be run at a profit for the country rather than shareholders.

    EDF seem to be able to do it for the French government.

     

    They were the main issues.  Politicians, who knew nothing about the industries, were essentially running them in the UK, instead of leaving it to the experts.

  6. The cells at Mill St have been closed for years 
    You’re lucky if you get Govan as the other option is greenock and you don’t get a lift home [emoji23]
    I'll take your word for that as you're obviously a man of experience regarding it. [emoji16]
  7. In case you havent noticed, the cuts administered by Westminster have consequential knock-on in Scotland
    Hunt's recent tax giveaways are really cuts elsewhere and the consequential cut passes on to Scotland's budget.
    All that being said, i can see that in this century there is less need for physical estate and the major Police hub in Govan is only a few miles away,  if it means we spend less on buildings like Mill St, which wads decrepit after less than 10 years use, then the actual policing of the town can be better preserved
    Aye, but it's further for Cookie to walk home after he's "been allowed" to sleep it off in a cell. :whistle


  8. These are our next five games! [emoji51]
    I've said it before, but to reiterate, Aberdeen are in a false position and now their European campaign has ended they will start accumulating points.
    I really hope I'm wrong, but based on our current form I think we'll be lucky to get three points from these fixtures. 
    Please tell me I'm being a pessimistic, miserable, bar steward! 
     


    You're not. You're actually being a pessimistic, miserable, c**t. [emoji16]
  9. That's not discrimination, that's good work practice to ensure the best person gets the job fairly and to protect the company from any discrimination claims.
    What if a black lesbian got the job? According to the CEO, that person (assuming the company isn't already full of black lesbians) wouldn't be checked by her. If you are singling out a specific demographic for different treatment, it's discrimination.

    I don’t believe the “squinty door” is squinting due to erosion, more to subsidence - possibly due to supporting massive weight for centuries.  Perhaps it was “reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete” deployed in the foundations by the 12C monks.

    It was subsidence.  They reinforced the foundations a while back - dunno what with, though.

  11. But you INDICATED it was. 
    The same "levelling effect" can be used, relatively, in ANY league. 
    No, I never, I said it wasn't a fair comparison due to it. The difference in income from top to bottom (according to a quick google) is less than 1.5x. It would have been a lot bigger in Fergies time, with Man U at the top (for most of it).
