Digby Jones was a partner at a third rate Birmingham law firm before moving to the CBI. He wouldn't get a job at any of the top twenty UK law firms, because he is demonstrably third tier. If Nigel Boardman or Anthony Salz were talking, people might listen. Jones is a nobody

Brilliant. "The post holder will be a strong advocate for trees"

2006 Act companies are quite "secretive" insofar as the general public is concerned. Obviously the regulators and the tax man can get their hands on pretty much anything. Separately, despite the current pitchforks it is highly unlikely that the UK government is going to legislate for the IOM or the Channel Islands. The constitutional relationship between the UK and the various islands is incredibly complicated and nuanced, and despite the wishes of the likes of Richard Murphy the UK isn't going to bulldoze legislation through destroying the communities there. The likes of the Cleaner and the Radio Virgin would like it to be otherwise, but it isn't ever going to happen

This looks like a good outcome - what could be worse than the present situation?

He is an utter cunt

I used his book to stop smoking too. More than ten years off the cigs now, very pleased I did it.

What can and cannot be claimed as damages for negligence is a pre legal issue. I don't know if that advocate was stating the law as it stood at the time, but the courts are very constrained in what they can and cannot award

I'm sure I remember "Summerland Sam" getting bundled over and jumped on during one Douglas Carnival. 1983? Being dressed in a big, spherical foam suit he was pretty much helpless (but also pretty impervious to damage). It was very funny

The reply is now up and it is basically that the balance on the media fund is basically £34million. £24m in cash and £10 in films. Previous this was £33m Of that £25million has been earmarked to be "Invested" by Pinewood. Therefore 33 - 25 = 8 which is what he is saying will come back to general reserves one day. This is reliant on the films that have been made that cost £10m returning that much and that the £25m that Pinewood soend on other films will return that much again. On the basis that virtually every film produced to date has lost money including TT3D the chances of that £8m ever being seen are roughly the chances of me going dogging with Sam Barks tonight How did you get on?

Did someone call?

It's not kiddy coke, I don't think. It has a different effect on children than on adults, so while it would basically have the same effect as speed on an adult, it actually calms children. I learned this from Doc Martin

I didn't have much to do with him but I do know people who speak surprisingly highly of him (usually good swimmers mind)

I had the pleasure of The Smurfs 3d yesterday. I can't say I recommend it. Gutted to hear Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is dreary - was really looking forward to that.

and I've got a big cock hanging off me. Its name is pauld

I might start a thread mentioning myself by my real name and talking about what a great shag "he" is
