Niggles -

People whose "comment" consists of a very brief headline with a link to another web site for the full story.   Keeps one jumping about all over the place!    :rage:

I was sitting by the phone when the caller display on the phone showed an international call coming in.   I answered the phone in Welsh and carried on speaking to him in Welsh and the rude man just put the phone down on me!

Given the UK's increasingly large immigrant population I've often wondered how many times that sort of thing must happen to them. On the other hand , given that a significant chunk of our population in parts of the Midlands uses English as only a second language, perhaps that's why most call centres have been moved to India…

You're a bit out of date Ian, it is not just the Midlands anymore.  Try a visit to London and its Suburbs, Glasgow, half of Yorkshire, South Wales etc. etc. ad infinitum!   My calculation on the back of a fag packet seems to indicate an increase in the country's population due to immigration of about 20,000,000 in the last few decades!    What does your fag packet say?    :(

Has anyone else noticed the P at the beginning of Coronation St lately it stands for Product placement.  Well it's driving me to distraction as I now spend the entire episode looking for the products placed on the sets  :rage: As yet I have not seen one.  I bet it won't belong before advertisers really push the boat out and a conversation between Roy and Hayley Cropper goes something like:
Roy:      Hayley your hair looks very shiny this morning
Hayley: Why thank you Roy I'm using the new Pantene extra shine shampoo.
You mark my words product placement is just the beginning  :twoface:

Pantene caused havoc on here a few weeks ago, he seems to have left now though!  ;D
