shamelessly OT: winners and losers

[stuart noble]

We've spent the last decade teaching our primary school kids that winning games isn't important. Just thought I'd throw that in at ten minutes to three.....

[D.M.Chapman]

Well, they've learnt now :)

Didn't see the match - was busy oiling the deck :) GP was good though...

After the first goal I decided not to depress myself and went an cut the lawn.

On the upside, there were some crackin' bargains on eBay ;-)

[stuart noble]

Let's hope the kids will try and explain to daddy that it's the taking part that's important :-) My teacher says so (well, for the moment anyway)

And the local tip was comletely empty :-)

And the staff were probably in the portacabin watching it , so you could dump naughty stuff and nick the good stuff :)

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember stuart noble saying something like:

Nice to see the lessons have taken hold :) And they say education is wasted on the young.

I went to the Supermarket.

Surprisingly it was quite full.

Come on Argentina (now who would have thought we'd be saying this?)

What is there that you can't dump?

(I know you can't take trade waste but every dump that I have been to now enforces this by making sure that anything bigger than a car can't get in without "reporting" to the office).

Its not wining that matters its not bothering to try that matters.

I went to best buy and bought a new SLR and watched some of the match in 3D, it was cr@p. The BBC doesn't have enough 3D cameras there so when they switched views it wasn't 3D, then it was, then it wasn't..

At my tip they weigh the whole car and trailer going in and out, so the more good stuff you nick, the cheaper the price. It's also good if you pick up some heavy passengers before driving out.

I thought the Brits were good at soccer? NZ were unbeaten! :)

Plasterboard for one. Bizarre I know.

[Gib Bogle]

Does that mean if you pick up more than you dump, they pay you?

We did better than the old champions. Wahoo!

[Gib Bogle]

After watching several World Cups, I have to say that most of the games are always cr@p.

No need for that. Read

Can't dump plasterboard or asbestos at our one.

Or tyres, come to think of it...

T'will always be the same until we get rid of the "professional" game.

Get shut of the animals and let the serious players with less self interest play for us.
