New Pornographers - Mutiny, I Promised You. Might have gone with Sing Me Spanish Techno, but the video here is Kristen Schaal's Penelope, Princess of Pets and makes me laugh every viewing (despite having cost all of £2.30 to make)
Indeed, was just reading this article this morning, have a look at how often eg Leicester kicked off at home at 3pm Sat, or that Leeds stat, 80 days since they last did the same.
And then picture what it might be like with 4 times as many televised games...
Spot on the fans-phone-in idea, I think, for instance, my own view from the DW is that Sam Tickle at Wigan is easily the best keeper in the division; won't be cheap, and already talk of Sunderland and Birmingham casting an eye, but only 22, and great sell-on potential. And who doesn't love a left-footed keeper.
If the rumours are true that JCS might be going for an actual fee, I'd take a minibus up and nab Charlie Hughes at the same time, leaving room to save Martial Godo the trip back to Fulham for when Willock departs.
I've probably spent £4-5m of other people's money there though...
Barry used to get annoyed that people mixed him up with Barry Took. One Royal Variety he was actually presented in line to Princess Anne as 'Barry Took'.
A little later they met again at a charity lunch, when, with his wife, he was introduced as 'Mr and Mrs Barry Cryer'.
'Make your mind up', said the Princess to him, 'last week you were Barry Took'.
Barry apologised for the confusion.
'Perhaps you and Took could do the show together next time and sort out which of you is which'.
I was working for a software house in Harrow, not on err Project X (paranoid self-edit) myself, but some mates were literally going in at 10pm and working 12 hour shifts, just to get machine time. As you say, first-job grads, no experience, laughable support from ICL, QA a joke - the project was a notorious disaster.
Strangely though, not a mention now anywhere outside this thread - almost like 'ICL' and 'cover-up' go together like a horse and carriage...
If we are talking about the same project NumptyD, I recall colleagues working round-the- clock-shifts as the ICL dev environment was so poor - wouldn't be surprised if a few 90 hour weeks were genuine.
Anyhow, glad to have so many fellow Eye readers aboard!
I've been an Eye subscriber for longer than I can remember, but I think they would credit that hotbed of investigative journalism, 'Computer Weekly' for breaking the Horizon scandal story originally.
