KIT KAT GOES FAIRTRADE


The title says it all really, but the KIT KAT 4 FINGER IS NOW FAIR TRADE!!!!! Click here for more info

I find the exclamation mark widely over used in today's society, and yes, it does bug me. But for a statement such as this, any less then 5 would have just been wrong.

The Robin Hood Tax




To sum up, if there was a 50p for every £1000 tax on the banks for every transaction made that doesn't involve members of the public (just commercial transactions) there would be an estimated £50-£250 billion raised for the economy. Obviously there is a lot more to this, go to the website above for further info.


Who’s in?

Gordon Brown, Angela Merkel (the German Chancellor) and Nicolas Sarkozy (the French President) have all spoken out in support of a tax on financial transactions.

Plenty of business bigwigs are on-board too. Like Lord Turner (from the Financial Services Authority), George Soros (the philanthropist) and Warren Buffet (US businessman extraordinaire). And then there are the hundreds of economists who have backed the idea, too.

This isn’t some crazy pipedream. It’s a simple and brilliant idea which transcends party politics and which – with your support – can become a reality.

The Daredevil Sheep


Here's a story all about how this dumb sheep abseiled fifteen feet down and I'd like to take a minute just sit right there, I'll tell you how he used his horns to carry out the dare.

Basically a sheep got his horns caught on a wire and when he tried to free himself, he slipped off the edge and accidentally abseiled down the wire to the nearest pylon. Read more about it here.

15 Facinating World War II ads


These are American, for which I apologise, but still quite amusing.

Camo Art


This is an example of some very impressive body art, where they've painted a lass to blend into the background convincingly. Allegedly no digital tricks have been used. More can be found here...

Insurance claims....

"I was driving along the motorway when the police pulled me over onto the hard shoulder. Unfortunately I was in the middle lane and there was another car in the way.." (Thanks M Robson)

"Going to work at 7am this morning I drove out of my drive straight into a bus. The bus was 5 minutes early.." (Thanks N Bradley)

"I was driving along when I saw two kangaroos copulating in the middle of the road causing me to ejaculate through the sun roof." (from an Australian claim form - Thanks N Shepherd)

"The accident happened because I had one eye on the lorry in front, one eye on the pedestrian and the other on the car behind." (Thanks Sharon Burrows)

"I started to slow down but the traffic was more stationary than I thought."

"I pulled into a lay-by with smoke coming from under the hood. I realised the car was on fire so took my dog and smothered it with a blanket."

Q: Could either driver have done anything to avoid the accident? A: Travelled by bus?

The claimant had collided with a cow. The questions and answers on the claim form were - Q: What warning was given by you? A: Horn. Q: What warning was given by the other party? A: Moo.

"I started to turn and it was at this point I noticed a camel and an elephant tethered at the verge. This distraction caused me to lose concentration and hit a bollard."

"On approach to the traffic lights the car in front suddenly broke."

"I was going at about 70 or 80 mph when my girlfriend on the pillion reached over and grabbed my testicles so I lost control."

"I didn't think the speed limit applied after midnight"

"I knew the dog was possessive about the car but I would not have asked her to drive it if I had thought there was any risk."

"The accident occurred when I was attempting to bring my car out of a skid by steering it into the other vehicle."

More, yes MORE can be found here....

Some sobering thoughts...

Have a look at this link "world-o-meters" It counts various going ons. I have no idea as to the accuracy, but I see no reason to question it either...

Back to the good old days


Remember when the internet was a new?
Remember when you had to sign in over your phone line?
Remember the noise the modem made?
If you can remember even further back in time, then you may remember this
