    Robert, Basically the government have reneged on a funding agreement, leaving us with a shortfall.

    Dave, No, nothing was said outright, there was just lots of...you're still going on leave?

    What will be, will be...I don't get paid enough to worry about all this, my worry is in the future getting paid at all!

    Oh and I got a PM from someone criticising me for being British and mentioning going to the beach last weekend when there is a BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico...

    Sorry guys I am being negative, and this is a positive thread.

    Chin up Leanne, we're all going on the craziest Pearl Jam holiday in just over a week, you're going to meet so many people you'll hardly remember them once you're home and if it's all tits up when you return we'll have a whipround and make you some thunder and lightning for pudding! :D It's that simple! :D

    i agree with gary, and dimi, chin up, and i'm sure all will be okay, surely they can't punish you for going on your leave, which i'm sure you've had booked for months.

    I reminded them of the Torrey Canyon disaster affecting Cornwall in 1967 (liberian supertanke chartered by Union Oil of California which crashed and sank causing the 7th biggest oil spill in history on the shores here, in the Isles of Scilly even in France) and that the spill had little affect on the US demand for oil,...maybe I should have mentioned that actually BP is no longer called British Petroleum because they merged with an American Oil company Amoco...worng person and time to pick a fight with me...one of my specialisms was in environmental politics.

    Whos Andrew?

    It occured to me that i never asked.

    He's Lone Drawn Meteor on here I think...he did the winning badge design for the Euro tour to.
    He's over the pond so I have promised to send him one of each design, and told him to come in here, to hear and see the feedback from you guys


    Sorry to interrupt, I know I don't belong in this thread, not being lucky enough to go to any of the Euro shows, but I just wanted to say that I'm so glad you like the stickers. I was honoured to be asked to work with Dottles on this (thanks for making the introductions, SotD!) and hope you all party so loud during the tour that it keeps me up at night (Canada's a long way away). The small number of you who will be getting the stickers are some lucky, lucky kids! You've got a great friend in Dottles and don't ever forget it! […searching for Dottles' Donation Button…]

    Local government has been absolutely shafted by the government everywhere, though I'm sure the fat cat civil servants in Whitehall have been spared... However, you have the tour to look forward to, what will be will be, jobs come and go but memories like these will last forever!

    As for that one going on about going to the beach, that's an epic response!

    A week from now I shall be in the middle of a great fortnight away from the office, packing starts in earnest tomorrow when I've done some washing!
