  4. Damn right Butch. Nothing beats a local takeaway deal. Pizza Palace in Stockton does a 12" pizza, Large parmo and chips, Portion of donner meat, 2 tubs of sauce and 2 cans of pop for a tenner. Or for an extra 2 quid you can get 3 X 12" pizzas. They are proper meal deals.

  5. Am I going mad? I am writing a wrestling quiz and I am sure in the past I came over a titbit that Bray Wyatt got his name from Stand by Me (If not that another Stephen King inspired film) where the radio announcer says "...and this song goes out to Bray Wyatt and his sister Abigail"

    I have tried googling to confirm this and I cannot find anything. Have I completely made this up? I am looking at @Astro Hollywood to answer this after his brilliant dissection of the character on his blog. 

  6. I had a bizarre dream last night. I dreamt that I was walking down a seaside pier which had a garden running through it with trees, flowers and lawns. I stopped to take a phone call and I started sinking in the grass and i was saved by a reluctant Charlie from Casualty who looked like he had a face of thunder. 

  7. Speaking of bad tributes my local casino have had their fair share of terrible acts. The one that took the biscuit was a couple of years ago when I was playing in a poker tournament which is on the second level of the building.

    The rest break was coming up so I decided to beat the rush and headed downstairs to the smoking terrace for a tab. When I got to the bottom of the stairs there was this odd looking bloke loitering in the dark under the stairs wearing a startling shiny pink shirt with a perm which was aided by Grecian 2000, a horrible goatee beard and a tan that looked like he was baking in a desert for about 4 weeks; he was glowing! The guy must have been in his late fifties, so I thought that is one hell of a mid-life crisis and thought nothing of it.

    Once I finished my cigarette I headed back in side and there was a PA announcement of "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Mr Lionel Richie" the bloke I saw in the shadows wanders on to the stage and it is clear as day he was blacked up. His voice was shocking as well, I think the entertainment director got the sack for booking that gig.

  8. I wasn't sure where to post this, but I think this topic is good as any. Today I have experienced probably the biggest amount of job satisfaction in my career. 

    I work for a small mental health charity as a data officer so I don't really have any dealings with our service users other than saying hello and processing the data relating to them. Back in September my colleague was telling me that one of their clients was in great financial difficulty due to their child's DLA for ADHD had been completely taken off her due to her application form not been backed up with sufficent evidence. I looked everywhere to try and find support for the client, but the CAB had a waiting list of three months and there was no other organisation locally who could help. So without my bosses knowing I decided to take it on myself. 

    I invited the service user in to get the full story. I typed up an appeal letter even though I was told it was hugely unlikely to be overturned as the client missed the appeal deadline by two months. The appeal letter was accepted by a tribunal and set a court date for today. We built a case which included 400 pages of documents. Before we even entered the tribunal the judge came out to inform us that they have decided to fully award the benefits to my client and back-pay fully from when it was suspended almost a year ago. I saw someone who had looked dejected every time I saw them to having one of the biggest beaming smiles on their face. They had spent the last year in poverty, having to go to food-banks to survive but can now live a relatively comfortable life. 

    I am not kidding I am chuffed to bits for this person and I feel so rewarded for all the hard work I have put in to win this appeal.
