The Locker Room

Hi, I would like to make friends with policemen there because my brother is a policeman here in New Zeazland and I feel that you guys don't get enough friendship and support.

It has come to my attention that one or two forum members are very interested in the weather (as am I). I have agreed to provide a number of links which will assist serious weather watchers/forecasters. Hopefully, discussion on the weather will follow but I feel it will be helpful to have any reference matter at the start of this topic. Please note that the links below are my person favourites. There are many others that provide similar information. If you see something that you like the idea of but not the presentation, please ask. I may know of alternatives.

Please sign up to the following if you have not already done so. This is not good news for any vehicle driver. PAY AS YOU GO driving. According to the email i received about this they require 750,000 people to sign the petition before the government even bothers. The present figure is estimated to be 250,000 and rising. Not everyone knows about it and it has not been widely publicised. I wonder why. http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/traveltax/

Hi guys & gals!!!! I've been lurking around here for a few weeks (from my very limited works internet access ) and decided to join in (albeit from home, god forbid I stop work for more than 2 seconds, else my line manager starts cracking the whip ) Anyway, more on me. I am a Early/Mid 20's guy, Police Support Staff based in a very large CJU in the north of England. Or as the East Londoners call it: "ap norf" I can be cynical, mischievous and disgruntled (who's ever been gruntled anyway? ), but mostly just wacky And yes, I am obsessed with smileys Nice to meet you all, Bzzzzz

I log on to this forum for mainly to entertain myself and others with my own stupidity . I have a Master of Science in politcal correctness and professionalism which I clearly display whilst at work. On this forum, however, I have chosen a slightly different approach. I enjoy letting my hair down and boring people to tears with my anti-Einsteinian posts. Recently this forum has turned into a first page styled-clip book, ala the SUN. As I can't be asked to read the articles, could we perhaps have a section with just articles and comments and a separate section for the rest?

The diary kept by his ex media chief Alastair Campbell has long been the subject of speculation at Westminster. Extracts were read o…

One of the proposals put forward by Commons leader Jack Straw is a change of name - and using "the Reformed Chamber" until something more permanent is devised. We asked if you could think of anything more interesting or appropriate. We have had hundreds of suggestions - and it is clear that by far the biggest response was to keep the old name intact.

Whether at table, in class or at work we have always been told that sitting stiff-backed and upright is good for our bones, our posture, our digestion, our alertness and our general air of looking as if we are plugged into the world. Now research suggests that we would be far better off slouching and s…
