Absolutely spot on

Something very much like this.

I tend to find with most things reported in the press, the Mail and Telegraph will seek to blame the people it happens to (well, unless they're white, middle class and male) while the Guardian will blame it all on society and/or some form of corporate fat cat. Or Margaret Thatcher.

The reality usually lies somewhere between the two.

This was quite low for you Damo bringing up personal problems of mine, to which I get help and I am doing something about.
I haven't seen you since you gave me the 20 pound, that is why I have not given you it. I will happily send you it via online banking tonight if you post me in private you bank details. Alternatively if you can get to Bradford Friday, I will pay you in the gate there, and even buy you a beer.

The problem here Damo seems to be that alot of time you are joking, and looking for bites, and it would appear in this instance you are been genuine and sincere. However no one else seems to know the difference.

You're a good lad mate, but you're views on the employment situation do annoy me. We'll have to agree to disagree as I really don't want you posting any other issues that you know I am currently battle against at the moment. On that note, just give me your banking details tonight. Thanks.

So, this whole thread was actually just an elaborate ruse by Damo to get his £20 back.

If it was, then bloody well played.

Why would I give you my banking details when I could just get an acquaintance of mine to hack (virtual bailiffs – lovely people they are) into your bank account to get my £20 back?

Just pay £40 to get into Bradford later on this week. They need it more than me.

right, I'll give you a day to change your mind on that one. I'm not having you in 3 years nag me about this 20quid. I'll happily give you it friday if you go to Odsal.


Back on topic...............infact no, f000k it. I'm out.

Are you two married

In three years’ time I shall blurt out that you owe me £20 on live TV. Several helicopters will fly with signs advertising the same message all across Yorkshire. On top of that I shall do a campaign to out-do the recent KONY 2012 one. It should be epic. Just you watch me

Take care mate and have a good week!

I think that sort of experience and ethos will stand you in good stead in the future, I worked for the civil service for 4 years after school. decided i wanted to get into sales, and first one didn't work out, rather than lurch straight into something else i enrolled with an agency, they threw a mixed bag of work at me, most of the time either flogging 'pop' for Britivic or doing security for the council checking (meant to be) empty council houses on 12 hour night shifts around the broadleas / whythers, if neither of those needed me i did everything from said picking and packing, and lugging gas bottles about for calor gas in the snow, the jobs ranged from the enjoyable to the cushy to the soul destroying to physically demanding, but I really enjoyed that year of temping until i found something that i wanted to do and they wanted me, i met lots of good people who's paths i might not of crossed otherwise, I learnt some stuff along the way and i actually ended up doing ok cash wise as i was doing lots of hours and the agency looked after me because they knew i would work

That year probably didn't look the glitziest on my CV but I could enthuse about it genuinely in interviews and I am sure a willingness to work did me no harm, I still look back on it fondly as a really good experience

2005, and if Ben isn't in civil partnership with you im sure he will find love in BRAIL p.s he looks about thirty no way has he just left school.

This guy is selling cake to make money! What he does with that money is up to him! Isnt that exactly what your local baker does!

Just had a look on Bens Facebook page and he’s really enjoying himself in Brazil. He’s also working.
