Early reports reckon he's seriously injured, according to Sky Sports News.
the student bashing/affirming thread reminded me - I was at the Stirling Uni campus in August for a game between an Edinburgh boys club team and a Falkirk F C boys team none of the dads there remembered the Queen's visit to Stirling Uni when she got an 'idiosyncratic' welcome anyone else...
Anyone post on the LSE boards?
Hey folks, I am seriously considering joining the TA. Initially just looked out of interest but seeing some of the things available which you get paid for I thought it sounded pretty good. Initially I thought I wouldnt want to be "deployed" - as in to Iraq etc - but I actually think being...
Given Scotland's chronic drinking problems, with more women and young people now dying of chirrosis of liver than ever before, should alcohol be made less available? It's been established that one of the ways to do this is to have a minimum price policy to deter people from drinking so much. ...
Baroness Warsi was pelted eggs, by Islamic "extremists" (not my wording) as she went on a walkabout around London. Yoke's on Her Moronic act or an angry mark of protest against her politics? I recall widespread satisfaction when Griffin was pelted, so what is the concensus surrounding her? ...
This years must have toys apparently as I found out when I read one of my overseas ‘daily email thingies’. Is it the same over here I thought? Well yes it is, the wee buggers are cute :rolleyes:, I mean scarce! :greengrin Well no it isn’t, a wee look around and the cheapest ones I saw...
http://419eater.com/html/RoadToChadDarfur/index.html Is this very harsh or justified? For those who can't be bothered reading, the short(ish) version is a man gets a typical scammer email, so he pretends to be a priest in Sudan with $145,000,000 which he needs to get out the country, trying...
Not seen a thread on this so not sure if any of you guys have seen this? What do you think? should this be seriously considered over here? I'm all for it to be honest. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/8383698.stm
Recently received this interesting, but rather long (54 mins), video concerning several peculiarities about the current swine flu "pandemic" and vaccine. All information has been published - discreetly - in the mainstream media and specialist medical press but I hadn't heard about most of it until...
That was the title of a program that was recently on but I never got round to watching it. However, the title got me thinking. We're only a few weeks away from the end of this decade and to me it's just whizzed by...and I can't think really think of too many good things that I can remember...
my dad recieved a parking ticket from them for being over 2 hours in a supermarket car park are these tickets legal? done a search and seems if you ignore them you will be fine (pun not intended :greengrin) anyone had a personal experience with them? what did you do? Cheers
What a horrific case. http://edinburghnews.scotsman.com/topstories/Girl-14-was-stripped-and.5604804.jp
How would one go about finding out who owns a property and lets it out to tennants? My neighbour's dog barks and howls from 8 in the morning til 5/6 at night, without stopping. I complained to her a while back, but she's done sweet FA about it, and goes out to work/college, leaving it home alone...
Heading through to Glasgow today and wondering if anyone knows of any decent places to watch this game? I think they said the 1st half was on 'Red Button' on Sky so was thinking that might affect where will show it. Not really familiar with Glasgow City Centre pubs/bars so any help...
Anyone ever been the victim of inerveted snobbery? Maybe you're an inverted snob yourself - proud of your background and dismissive of anyone who appears wealthier or smarter than you. I find social clubs are a good place to encounter IS. For example, if you say you think the turn is cheesey and...
Saw that terrible Hilary Swank movie in Boston the other week. Anybody believe in alien abduction and have close encounter stories to share? (I've seen some strange lifeforms at places like Tynecastle and Ibrox, but i'd never insult any extraterrestrials by lumping those creatures in with...
Left wing democratically elected Govt overthrown in a coup. (CIA have been involved there in the past). What does Obama do? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8123126.stm Troops in Honduras have detained the president and flown him out of the country after a power struggle over...
I'm thinking about going in February and could do with some advice. A colleague of mine from Nottingham is just back and he went flight only. He says he found a cottage and booked that for Ł3.00 a night. So, should I just book flights and get a hiotel/ apartment when we get there, or should...
just had an email about it, is it a yes or no
Are the government really prepared to sit back and watch 2 of it's citizens be killed? http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/kent/8371446.stm I understand their position but surely SOMETHING can be done??

:grr: Edinburgh parking fines reach almost Ł7m More than Ł328m was collected in parking fines across the UK last year Almost Ł7m in parking fines were collected in Edinburgh last year - the highest of any city in the UK apart from London, a report has claimed. The Taxpayers'...
I'm rather upset to note that Borders are facing administration if they cannot find a buyer - they've stopped taking online orders and it is expected that they may not last until Christmas, due to the likes of supermarkets and online retailers (Amazon) selling at much lower prices. We have a big...
Vauxhall want Ł155 to service my wife's Corsa and that's just an interim service. Is there somewhere cheaper to go that will do the same job? Her car may also need the brakes looked at, so that's a consideration too.
Almost forgot! Two days ago was the 150th anniversary of the publication of Darwins "On the Origin of the Species". Its not hugely easy to read in the original now, but the concepts described opened the door to challenge religion and develop as a secular planet. Happy anniversary!
Does anyone else watch this ? It's on at a bit of a radge time (Saturday night on BBC2) but it's always worth catching on iPlayer. Peter Capaldi's character is hilarious.
First, where did that phrase, to denote not getting away from the job, originate from? I'm always impressed by the range of occupations on this board and how it influences posters. Filled Rolls had a career change, moving into Mental Health, and it's obvious that his undoubted passion for that...
A press release from the Science and Technology Facilities Council (18 Nov 2009 10:29, sorry I’m a bit late!) It sounded so exciting I thought I just had to pass this on although it’s a bit over my head, probably 100s of light years over my head :duck: One question though – are we going to...
Well, Robin(a) Hood

You can now apparently get ill by simply taking a shower http://uk.news.yahoo.com/22/20090915/thl-life-us-showers-germs-b2e59e8.html It does state that this normally only affects people with compromised immune systems but occasionaly does cause health probelms for "normal, healthy" people. ...
One of the folks in the office asked if I could make this more ‘available’. Personally I’ve got a nice artificial one! If admins felt the charitable Christmas urge they could put this on the main forum until 14th December :cool2:; its not as though it interferes with any fund raising...
