No but it's a thought & probably pays better than my current job. After dinner the MD decided to make a speech and was told (a bit too) politely not to and to shut up by our head of department because a)he was slightly pissed and b)wearing the Welsh rugby top he'd bought that afternoon.:slap:

I refer you to the forum rules http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/2070-Forum-Rules which it was felt you had crossed and if your message hadn't been removed by Nick then it would have been by someone else on the moderation team. Please feel free to call me a Sisu Rent Boy though as it will...

In a previous job we were booked as a department to go and have a team building weekend in Cardiff of all places. This had farce written all over it from the start as none of us wanted to go and it just went downhill from there. Whoever in HR (and no-one owned up) booked it didn't check the...

I don't recall saying they would? No my phone was having issues and then t-mobile mucked up my data package so I had no internet whilst it was being sorted. Nice of you to notice though.

We won't know the financial health of ACL or SBL or Otium until the accounts are published. Unless you are outing yourself as someone with inside knowledge of any of the firms listed.

Well as our football club doesn't look likely to be going back there with our current owners, it's not going to be them building the hotels. None of this really helps get our club playing back in Coventry unless I've missed something and that surely has to be the main priority at the moment. It...

Done-I remember doing mine which involved several sleepless nights of hell the days leading up to the deadline. Good Luck!

As we were relegated* at Villa Park I have less love than normal for that ground than I do for most. That combined with the fact that the Villa play there makes it even worse. At least pick another Coventry team if you can to try and keep the support in the city. * missed the game thanks to...

Just watching the Cayman Islands Premier squirm as he is getting a grilling from Stephen Saccur(?) on Hardtalk on the BBC. He was just asked if beneficial owners of companies and trusts would be identified and made available to scrutiny. He dodged saying yes in a way that would make Mr...

There is no conspiracy here I asked nicely to lay off a particular subject that had annoyed some people. This continued today whilst I am at work and therefore not able to see everything posted and I may have missed the odd post. I would have locked this thread myself but can't do so via my...

Well if Joy says come on lads let's go out for Sushi......;)

The Taxis were straying into politics in a way that may have caused offence to people. If you're offended by my favourite chocolate bar do let me know. In all seriousness though they were great as a post match snack washed down with a can of Coke on the Virgin train back to London.

Probably why they aren't around any more. Lion bars also nice but not a patch on a Maverick. Used to try and make myself think they were slightly healthy because they had fruit in.

The midweek cup game against Sheffield United in Yorkshire where we went out on penalties after another equaliser in unwarrented injury time. Not only was it cr@p that we went out but the route back to the station was gridlocked and I almost missed the train back. Wished I had when I found out...

I lived off those for a while did my waistline no good at all but the frequent trips to the chip shop also didn't help. I bought almost a bag full of them when Tesco mispriced them one weekend 20p each was a steal.

Ooh that reminds me of the Maverick bars they launched when I was at Uni, I could eat those like there was no tomorrow - a king size bar before a night out was perfect and always had a spare somewhere in the bedroom just in case I was hungry when I got home.

It's standard business practice though, so piss poor or not it happens a lot. Can't comment on the rest of that really as I don't know all the facts - now there's a surprise with our club. However the Higgs did build the sports centre in Allard Way that has the academy facilities that got us Cat...

At least Elvis is being realistic and the fact that we're not facing a dramatic struggle to get out of the bottom three at this stage in the season is nothing short of a miracle.
