and what happens to the chairman of lloyds TSB? did that bank not lose a fortune as well?
there are many others who have made massive errors of judgements that have lost this country millions, if not billions of pounds, that have gone unpunished.
HERE IS A LITTLE CLUE.
any clues needed as to who sold our gold reserves at rock bottom prices, and lost possibly billions of pounds of tax payers money? as a clue he was chancellor of our exchequer who had first hand knowledge of gold and its prices. even minnie mouse would have known not to sell at those bottom prices.
what did he get punished by exactly?
i think this idiot deserves a similar fate. dont you?
Quote by Meeko
Well, given that I turned 35 last birthday, I can't say I've ever felt old on the swinging scene.
I kinda liked it when I turned about 32 and all of a sudden hot young men were interested in me as an 'older woman' :rascal: I must say, I've "appreciated"there youthful vigour and enthusiasm lots since!

It`s interesting that when the last government tried to destroy peoples livelihoods by banning hunting, the protests were peaceful and the police are on record as commenting on how well behaved the protestors were.
When a bunch of layabout wankers who think they should be given everything on a silver platter get told they might have to pay their own way for once rather than sitting about spongeing off the rest of us .....there`s violence ........
So much for democracy
Quote by GnV
In the (good) old days, places of excellence such as Manchester Grammar didn't need league tables to tell potential employers or Universities (in the days that there were real Universities) that the candidate was properly educated. Places on Medicine and Barrister Law courses were assured.
If you went to an 'ordinary' grammar school, the candidate might have to be more convincing but a potential employer or University would generally know the kind of standard to be expected without the need for meaningless league tables.
If as an employer, you wanted someone good with their hands in a 'crafty' sort of way, you would look for candidates from the Technical High Schools.
And finally, if you wanted a labourer or someone who could use brawn rather than brain, you went to the Secondary Modern School when looking for candidates.
It was all so simple.

I find, more often than not that the book is far better than the film. Most times there is to much information lost when a book is turned into a film
Quote by neilinleeds
I don't think it's always offensively . It can be playful and friendly or full of agression and venom, depending on the context. 'Fuck off you daft cunt' is very different from 'Go fuck yourself you thick fucking cunt', and different from 'I love the taste of your cunt you dirty little bitch' again. It's all in the intent.

We do have a number on board now, but would love to get a more along to make it a real eventful fun evening. We would especially welcome some more couples and single females as this is proving very popular with the guys!!!
I have noted on the events page this was listed as Private, this is not the case, this is a social which it states when under manage! A glitch there somewhere???
http://www.swingingheaven.co.uk/events/10903/
I have planned a social evening for those interested on the 3 March at 8pm in the Brighton/Hove area. It will be a totally relaxed informal pub evening to allow members to meet up, say hello, and get to know each other and to put names to faces. There will be opportunity to go onto other pubs nearby or just stick to the one were in, I’m sure we will have a great time having a drink or two and getting to know each other.
If you are new or feel unsure about attending please PM me, hopefully i can put you at ease or put you in touch with other attendees. This is designed to be a relaxed social evening to meet others.

During the current period of austerity it would appear that the more 'upmarket' bars are suffering worse than other hostelries. As a result I'd like to propose a rebranding of the SH Cocktail Bar, giving it a wider appeal, maybe in the form of a gastro pub?
To give it more 'street appeal' perhaps it needs a new name, so feel free to add your suggestions along with your drink and food orders below.
To start things off I'll add my idea first:
"The Cock in Hand"
Right, I'm off to the kitchen to fire up the Aga and switch on the bain maries. ;)

I am hoping for a good take up, so that we can create a more formal group and arrange further events on a more regular basis. So get your ass down there and let’s make it a good one!

Hi there,
Amber here from Devious Delights. Myself and J are very new to this site (Wednesday!!) I however have been a member for seven years under my single profile (Ambervixen).
I do think that a lot of people see this as a shag site rather than a swinging site, but it is easy to spot them.

I'm not goin' if there's gonna be lots of girls there.....they're only after one thing, makes a guy feel like he's expected to be there just to be used and abused as the women decide. Well I'm sorry but I'm not that easy! Unless I can find someone to go with who will make sure I'm unmolested after I've had a drink or two, then I might have to decline.

So you seriously want us to waste our time replying to people we never wanted to hear from in the first place?

When someone makes a film based on a book that I have actually read I'll answer the thread question
Quote by tweeky
I had a bit of a think and a bit of a read up on some stuff which is unusual for meWhat I came up with was this. Scotland was happy to sign the treaty of the union mainly for its own bennefit and happy to bennefit from it for the best part of 250 year during which the UK was for a large period the worlds foremost power. Now only 80 years on from the end of the largest empire the world has ever seen and with things not so rosie Scotland want out (possibly) and with the largest asset the UK has. With friends like that who needs enemys? Just seems a good way to screw over the rest of the UK. Not like much would change for Scotland. Join the EU they can all continue working here those that need to that is. Is anyone likely to Nuke Scotland? Just about as likely as Canada for the same reason. One down side would be Scottish mail! I mean now the Royal mail man will probably hand the sack to the Scottish mail man :lol: variation in name only I would guess. Day in day out not much would change for Scotland other than the possibility of greater financial security.
From the small nhumber of Scots I have spoken to it would seem they are not overly bothered by independance. Seems to be more of a Political thing but thats not to say Scotts wont vote for it if they see financial bennefit. I guess time will tell but if what they want is out and if for the reasons mainly stated above then I would say .... off and dont come back either.

Just a quick question to fellow members, Are any of you experiencing problems getting on the site in the last couple of days and having problems moving around the site?
We have had a 502 Bad Gateway message come up and a Media error message come up when viewing a pic ?
Is it a site fault or our laptop?
Quote by GnV
I've resurrected this thread having just watched two siblings going through hell on earth in a press conference following the death of their parents in an (as yet) unexplained murder in the West Midlands.
I thought of Clarkson and his comment about taking people out into the street and shooting them in front of their family.
You know, he's not far off in my opinion. I think he speaks for more people than he is given credit for.
Whoever is responsible for this terrible crime should be executed in this way to serve as an example to others.

Is this in remarkably bad taste. I am all for dancing on graves but surely one should wait for the individuals death and return to room temperature.
.....I feel safer already, not only am I to have an appointed "minder", but how could anyone even think about molestin' me when they could be playin dominoes or cribbage.
