Doing exams at the minute so I was proper happy when I got an email saying I got tickets to Dave's One Night Stand gig at the Olympia.

Not so happy when I realised it was Jason Byrne who was headlining.
Milton Jones supporting so it's not that bad.

Wait flah got there ahead of me.
Nicely done.

What dvds were they? Anything of any major importance?

Sopranos season 1, have not gone through the rest. The discs are ok, but the cover is destroyed. I would not mind so much only it is a borrow from a buddy.

And I said no pun intended

Sopranos season 1 is the second best season IMO.

Watched around 10 of them, they're excellent to watch. My fav is between Without Bias, June 17 1994 and Small Potatoes.

Feel privileged so.

DQ, jailbreaking used to be great when everyone used to have the whole argument of "Oh apple is just holding back all the great stuff"..
But now everything is possible.
Emulators are cool but run down the battery something shocking.

The best thing about that is that it's just footage taken from all American TV networks, no narration

Out of interest, why :rolleyes:? Who in that party would be a more suitable leader? Whoever it will be take over as a lamb to the slaughter regardless. But I would have that that Martin is one of the best possible candidates to take over. Himself or Hannafin.

Is this all over him and that game of golf?

flahavaj

They would be silly to oust him now. They're gonna be slaughtered at the next election regardless of who's in charge. Why bring in a new leader now who'll then have to endure a massive defeat as their first act as leader. They should keep him in, fight the election and get rid of him afterwards, and put the defeat doen to him. then the new incumbant at least can make a fresh start and not have to bear responsibility for what will be an inevitable meltdown at the polls either way.

What I can't wait for is the inevitable decimation of the Greens. What a bunch of snivelling cowards.

Well i for one would rather him outed before any election.

Last thing i want is seeing his big ogre like mug hanging off telephone poles for weeks! :mad:

Agree with all this. The only problem I have with the greens being decimated is that the Shinners will do very well.

I wonder will Cowan even go for re election? The whole golf gate, be it as innocent as he says or not, is the latest black eye from which he can never recover.
