    It might be just me but as fun as the snow zombie lot are, for me they are second fiddle to the Iron Throne. They aren't really much more than a device to produce action and suspense. Nowt wrong with that but the relationships and characters are the main focus of the show.

    I agree with this. The show has always been about the throne. The war between the living and the dead only started around season 4. Yes the war with the dead might be the bigger action the throne is the overarching story. 

     

    Personally I hope Dany doesn’t get to sit on the throne, she’s turned into a right little prick over the last couple of seasons. 

  2. I think the guy actually wants the teeth to be done. My brother came up a few days ago and showed me the list of the things he has to do in six months. He's wrote "End of November: Teeth". I've been looking into though. You need to pay for that stuff when you get the "Contribution" aspect of ESA, don't you?

     

    He'll need to go back to the same guy in six months. I wonder what will happen. Surely they can't dock you money? Surely not?

     

    Get him reported. Your brother can't be having that.

    I agree. Obviously I'd normally stick up for a fellow DWP'er but that is shocking behaviour. If feel embarrassed if I heard someone in my office say that.

  3. I've recently become really fucking frustrated with not being to find any job, hate being on the dole,I am either not qualified cause of experience or over qualified cause I have a degree. No shop or bar even seems to want me. People have looked at my CV and said its decent so no problem there. Anyway Im sick and tired of that shit so have decided to do something. Im thinking of learning to become a barber, which I think is a good trade, and its a lot of hard work but there is opportunity there, so I am hoping to start an NVQ in September. Just wondering if anyone has done anything similar, ie a trade of chef etc?

     

    Cheers.

    Is your degree mentioned on your CV? A lot of employers will look and think you are going to work in the same field as your degree as soon as the chance arrives.

  4. Thanks for the advice guys, but despite only completing the application this morning, I've already been rejected for a job that I could walk into doing tomorrow (but it was "after careful consideration" ofcourse). I'm gutted, I was perfect for that job and I didn't get a fucking interview

    Maybe the job was already closed or over subscribed because I don't think they could have given you a fair crack with your application in a day

  5. Yes, but there are ways around it, such as paying commission only.

     

    It's a factory job so they should be paying me minimum wage. Really I should've walked out as soon as they mentioned that it wasn't the job that was advertised. (more hours but much less pay per hour). I figured it was because I'm being paid through an agency but the girl who signed me off said I should still be getting minimum wage.

    Agency or not, you should be on minimum wage. Fuck the Job Centre (if it's like my local branch, their advice will be along the lines of, "Not my problem"), go speak to CAB.

     

    My job centre is okay actually. My mate used to work there so I know some of the advisors socially and the ones I don't have been pretty cool with me. One even added some stuff to my book o' lies when I hadn't filled it in right.

     

    I decided to speak to the agency first but there doesn't seem to be any reps on backshift but one of the boys I work with was insisting that we were getting

  6. Why is Haye even getting involved? Feel sorry for Adam Booth, got glassed cause of Hayes behaviour.

     

    Chisora is a mental. If I was Haye I'd be crying in a corner somewhere.

  7. That's a bit of a dig isn't it (by the BDO)?

     

    So what if Anastasia played the crowd, or slowed the game down. You do what gives you the best chance of winning, as long as it's not against the rules then she hasn't done anything wrong. Did Trina get visibly upset?

     

    That article stinks, stuck in the dark ages, and why BDO cannot do anything with the professional game. They've promoted the Womens World Championships so much, that they couldn't even get TV coverage for the semi-finals.

  8. Fair play to Lloydy. The 167 knocked the stuffing out of Scott Rand.

     

    I'm sure Rand will be above Lloydy in the rankings soon enough, unless Lloydy gets to the semis, final or wins. Just a blip for Scott, plenty of years ahead.

  9. According to the BBC website, one of the people charged with looting was a teacher! A FUCKING TEACHER!!

     

    No wonder the kids don't know right from wrong if the teachers don't. Un-fucking-believable!

  10. Sid Waddell is a cunt, he's so fucking pro Taylor it annoys the fuck out of me.

     

    Why do they have to constantly refer to him as the 15 time champion of the world, you'd never hear that done in wrestling :confused:

     

    Every shot Phil Taylor does is the best shot ever. He hit a double 4 in a game the other day, and it was the best shot of the tournament!! What a Geordie prick.
