Re: inane lyrics

I got my head checked
By a jumbo jet
It wasn't easy
But nothing is
No

When I feel heavy metal
(Woo-hoo) And I'm pins and I'm needles
(Woo-hoo) Well, I lie and I'm easy
All of the time but I'm never sure why I need you
Pleased to meet you

But he has to start making better decisions this season too, and that has to start with at least trying a change to the GK. And it also means, as someone said, we...

On the other hand, the overuse of fog lights is dangerous too, and all too prevalent.

Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover

Something still seems odd with repaying the loan, as the maths with the new loan don’t seem to stack up for it to be a benefit, if there are 6-7mm of penalties. (Assuming no big increase in rates). I’m sure CP is right there are penalties (and he seems to have some inside info), but there’s somethin...
