If his staff approve British Airways Chief Executive Willie Walsh's plans,they really will be working for BA one month. It seems that the airline is in such dire straits that Willie is going to work for nothing in July and has asked his loyal workers to follow suit.The problem is Willie that when your monthly salary is over £60,000 it's a bit easier than when it's £2,000. It's an understandable gambit- work for nothing and save your job. I wonder how the idea of working for SFA might go down here at Instanta.
Here's the lovely Lauren who,left with spare time on her hands at the weekend, decided (as you do) to make rice krispie cakes with boyfriend Darren.Darren, larking around as ever, decided to break the chocolate slab by holding it in front of his forehead and butting it macho style. But unbeknown to her incredible hulk, Lauren had stored the thick bar in the fridge leaving it rock hard.Result? A very sheepish Darren with huge comic style lump on forehead. When Lauren had recovered from her less than sympathetic doubling up with laughter she went on to make the fancies and brought some in for us to try. Thanks Lauren.
It's good to see democracy breaking out in Iran. After the weekend's over hasty announcement that Amadinajhad had won within an hour of the polls closing it seems that the governing body (with the president conveniently out of the country on a diplomatic mission to Russia)has announced a recount. Well done. If he then proves to have won (which judging from the mass demonstrations may be unlikely)at least he will be seen to have won fairly.
What a coup for Shamrock Rovers. The first game that the mighty Real Madrid send their new Galacticos Kaka and Ronaldo out onto the pitch is scheduled for 20th July in Eire against the Dublin part timers whose star striker Gary Twigg at £25,000 probably cost a fraction of the price of Ronaldo's watch.
And speaking of Galacticos, tomorrow night's Orange Wednesday film visit is a toss up between "Looking For Eric" and "Hangover" which is what I had after Eric ruined the trip I had with my kids Paul and Sarah to the 1996 Wembley Cup Final. I'll never forget Paul's tear streaked face paint on the weary journey home. Both films got well above average reviews and both are comedies. I think we'll try Eric first as, here on Merseyside, there's a chance that it might not still be on next week.
Another day, another offer. Today's offer is the best selling 1500LCD at the 2008 price of £399. A few customers have complained that I'm not giving them enough time to get the orders in before the offers expire so this offer will close at 5pm tomorrow 17th June 2009 and orders must be with us by then and MUST quote blog offer 160609. This means that until 5pm tonight when yesterday's offer of 10% off the DB2000 closes there will be no less than three special deals running. (The third deal is on used and ex demo equipment on the Notice Board section of the website. Until the end of June you can make us an offer on these items).
After the sad death of Humphrey Littleton we thought that would be the end of Radio 4's long running "I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue" but it was back last night under the chairmanship of Stephen Fry. I didn't get chance to catch it but hope to listen tonight on the BBC Website. I doubt that anybody could get away with the outrageous double entendres like Humph.Sample quote "Samantha tells me she’s had to nip out to meet a nice chap who’s training her in computer skills. Tonight, she hopes he’s going to show her the 3.5 inch floppy he’s got in his Mac…" But we're looking forward to hearing how it went.Ross and Brand were crucified for being rude on the radio. Humph was adored for material like this.....
