I tend to leave crushing philosophical statements to 'ar kid'. I enjoyed the movie but not the company of six old age pensioners. After several cinematic broadcasts asking us to switch our mobiles off and refrain from talking one woman's phone kept beeping until she could find her glasses in her handbag to switch it off. I was then treated to fifteen minutes of the moron behind me going 'ooh', 'tut, tut, tut', 'did you see that?' and 'that's a bit far fetched' until I stood up and asked him what part of the 'do not talk during the movie' did he not understand. They say kids are a nuisance. Well, they are, in fact, if I was Blair I'd have everyone up to the age of twenty two and over fifty five incarcerated, if you'd seen the woman in front of me at the gym car park giving a masterclass in an eight-point turn you'd knowwhat I mean.

I suspect it would 'go straight to DVD' rather than compete with Casino Royale but what a way to go bankrupt ! WoE

Now the gloom of yesterday has gone, we are expecting an upturn in spirit and some hot gossip. Typically, this will be the day when a coach load of hot chicks breaks down outside the book shop! Enjoy your custodia, WoE Rod,

This site needs more female opinions, we must continue to instruct the menfolk about important issues. Without us frankly they don't stand a chance! WoE Jordan,

Over 90% of the population spend all their money as and when they get it. They live week to week or month to month. This is not reflective of their income either, high earners do the same. Given the above fact when something like gas and mortgage sticks £50 odd a month on expenses that is £50 that person X will not spend elsewhere. He feels his life is affected and any business that would have benefited from his custom is £50 down. WoE I awoke today to a carpet of snow outside ! I am also pleased to hear you remember the Goldeneye Retirement Plan. I still think it a winner, there would be superb dining all provided by the residents - also a touch of glamour provided by our very own Jordan and Thong Chick.

As a mature member of society you must have seen some changes in your time ... go steady though and remember The Goldeneye Retirement Plan, the eventual sale of your property will be the deposit we need to secure the estate for the rest of us in due course. Any spare cash can be taken care of in the Goldeneye current account ... so he tells us. WoE Dear ARB,
