        Should've seen it before HMRC moved there! It were all fields, bluebells an daffodils as far as the eye could see.

        Until that ****er Marx came along with his chum Engels! Him and his communist manifesto, I ask you!

            I take it you've never been to Salford, then...

            There is a reason why "Dirty Old Town" was written in and about Salford.

                I've always wondered (having seen it at another client site) how it works this writing on the wall in poo thing....

                Do you "do the business", pick it up out of the bowl, dry it with a bit of bog roll, then use it like a pencil?
                Or do you grab it "in transit" sort of thing?

                Same with if you post someone a turd. Do you try and plop it straight into the jiffy bag or do the "removal" method? If its going straight into a bag, do you get a friend to hold the bag? Not sure I've got friends who I consider good enough to not tulip on my hand....

                Finally, why on earth would you want to grab hold of your own turd?

                    I've been to Old Trafford and stayed in the old town hall. Is that close enough? It doesn't compare in the slightest with Dowlais in the 1960's.

                    I've also been to Cheadle and Denton as well as Bolton and Horwich, all quite pleasant really when compared with Merthyr.

                    In the oldest? street in my town, there was a cottage with a date of 1666. It was knocked down to make way for a Tesco store. The store lasted about 30 years and now has been knocked down itself. The council can't seem to make up its mind what to put there now. Corporate vandalism!
