olol Capital One. I have credit cards with them. Whenever I feel like no one cares about me, I forget to pay them. Literally 3-4 phone calls a day.

Won't that have a potentially serious negative effect on your credit rating?

No no. They literally start ringing the day after you forget to pay. Credit ratings aren't usually affected until after 1 month of late payment.

In Romania we do 2 classes of PE in a week at 1-7 grades and 1 in a week further. Some guys say it's too few.

A motion of no confidence will be today in Romania: our primeminister has no confidence in his party PSD. The TVs vassal to this party and the gouvernamental alliance (Antena3 and RomâniaTV), the most watched News TVs supported the initiative ot the party.
This goes after the leader of PSD and Dan Şova, a member of the party, both with legal troubles "evaluated" the activity of the gouvernment raported to the gouvernment plan. The results were bad, the Ministers resigned and our prime-minister is in a hard situation. What you think?

You're talking rubbish! Are you sure they were an actual German, and not pretending to be German! :P

Definitely fake.

The correct answer is "One. Germans are efficient and not very funny."

10 years today since my car didn't start. (And we all trundled off to Birmingham for the first TT-Forums Meet!)

And you've both been to 100% of the meets I attended! :D Owen hasn't though, as he sucks :wink:

Anyway, I think I'm having a good day at keeping on top of things at work. Boss rings me "Can you do this", my response "Already done it, just about to send it out", I'm so good I can read minds :mrgreen: To be fair, it's been a good week for that this one, as stressful and frustrating as it has been!

And no, that probably doesn't make sense; English is not my strong point today, only because I'm now thinking about the pub, and getting rather intoxicated :lol:

Unfortunately I couldn't make it last year as we had a very small baby indeed and it didn't seem quite appropriate for me to disappear for a weekend at that point!

I've been to every other meet we've had though, including the unofficial Australian meet, that was some of the most fun I've had at a meet!

If there is freedom the people will kill each other.
If there is no freedom the people will get upset. The people who are upset will die faster.
Conclusion? The death is unavoidable...
