    And you are lacking a sense of humour and irony but make up for it with an impressive display of pomposity.

    (and I doubt that a 10 mega-tonne bomb could burst your bubble).

    PS. Not everything you read here happens in real life, just in case it hasn't dawned on you yet..




    Oh and I noticed that you posted the above and immediately logged off and ran for it...

        I'm poor as a church mouse, and common as muck.

        A sense of humour will help you through whatever life throws at you.

        Welcome aboard.

          No but I bet you did'nt give it away to charity either you hypocrite?

          Buying champagne and flash cars gives jobs to farmers and shop floor workers who are quite capable of deciding for themselves if they want to engage with an entrepreneur and work for them. As Cojak says what pomposity!

            Buying champagne gives jobs to French farmers. I'm surprised you favour such Euro-friendly policies, DA!

                  I'm not. I'm a little bit better of than the average contractor. And a whole lot better off than ANY permie, because I don't have to suffer annual appraisals.
