I still think we should get ‘inflation adjusted’ EMA. With the credit crunch, it should be £40 a week, rather than £30!
Ha - you cheeky cunt!

How about if Students prove theyve been working rather than spending money on taxis and weed and booze they get the extra cash ?
Kind of like signing on …

The Streets - Original Pirate Material
The Streets - A Grand Don’t Come For Free
One of them 2-in-1 CD package thingies. Only cost me £4.
It’s never going to be my favourite music in the whole world, but say what you like I think Skinner is very clever and the second album in particular is very good.

Saw some of it, yeah. Very interesting. Very intellegent bloke. The character he portrays himself as in the songs comes over as bit of a twat, so I don’t know how much of that is him and how much is an exaggeration.
But yeah, on a musical level we are talking very basic, but if you take his work as poetry then he’s very good.

Funny, I really like that song (Blinded By The Lights)…the lyrics perfectly capture what it’s like to come up on pills in a club (so I’m told, officer)

You could write GCSE maths questions like this…
“Mike has £20 and buys pills at the club. he gets £8 change. Manfred has a £10 note and plays it safe with 1 pill.
If Mike is blinded by 4 lights, but Manfred is just blinded by the one, how much change does Manfred have?”

Billy Bragg - Mr Love And Justice.
I think Levi Stubbs’ estate owes me the twelve uqid for this, cos if he hadn’t died last week I wouldn’t have dug out Bragg’s “Levi Stubbs’ Tears” and I wouldn’t have ended up in HMV spending more of my invisible money on the old naughty card on more Bragg.
So come on, Levi, I know you’re dead but fair’s fair, stump up the cash dude :mad:
Also bought:
Faith No More - King For A Day, Fool For A Lifetime…as I realised the other day I didn’t have Digging The Grave on my iPod and it is one of my favourite songs.
Ting Tings - We Started Nothing. Hmmm, I think this may become my equivalent of the old “Yeah but you like HIM”/ “Yeah but you like Oasis”/ “yeah but, dave, you actually went into a shop and spent money deliberately on the Ting Tings album” :(
What can I say? I have no alibi or defence, but I love the song Be The One so there.
And I’d love to have a cup of tea* with that nice singer girl.
(*or, you know, a blow job, depends on how good my charm offensive is working that day)

Well thanks to Dennis (i’m still not sure it was a good move) i purchased AC/DC’s “if you want blood” cos my tape died approximately 20 years ago, and also Prince’s “Sign O the times” cos, well, its ace and i haven’t heard it in years. Also got The Fleet Foxes self titled album which is borderline genius.

Everything they used to put out was fantastic… then I think after Endless Nameless (which I love) its started to go a bit wonkey… still good stuff there - just hidden between the odd duffer.
Ginger on the other hand took to releasing his own farts if he was lucky enough to have caught it on tape. His last few solo albums were really disappointing.
