What sort of power trip are you on Yorkie.

Its not the quantaty of posts but the quality of the content, I can remember you asking what the stars were on TTF and when you were told they were given as the number of your posts increased you started posting smiley's to get your "stars".

You have never been the top poster, cause your blinkered and shortsighted, to the point that you think posting a :D is a contribution.

What a wally.

Valuable contributions to a site such as this are those that stimulate further debate, and I can't remember you ever doing that.

Whta was it Mick. Oh yes I remember. You posted on your own site that a local operator was obviously passing bribes in brown paper bags to your council officers.


No thats the way you read it, turning generalisations into specifics and coming out with interpretations.

No action was taken against either the site or myself, an agreement was reached which satisfied all parties.

Holding a Party Conferance IS NOT TOURISM.

The Geordie public are amongst the most welcoming and proud people in the world, we do what we can to help people, by not responding to your stupid question I was treating it with the contempt it deserved.

Yes Yorkie you PH owners stick together don't you.

Ask yourself this question, if an office is so good that their cars never stop running and the office has a poster in the window advertising for more drivers, why doesn't everyone join that circuit.
Then decide whether you would buy from a salesman who said his merchandise was just OK.

Of course offices tell you its busy, they tell you they are the best firm to work for in their area, some even offer guarantees of what you will take.

Unfortunatly the reality is much different, but once your in you discover that your trapped there, or its costs you the earth to leave.
Some of these companies even CHARGE the drivers to put systems into their own car, even though the cause damage to the dashboard and charge them for uniforms, door stickers and topsigns.

Yeah the future is looking bright for the trade.

B. Lucky :evil:

yes the visitors to the conference are TOURISTS, exactly that and the most profitable too they spend the most.

about the drivers I am told ol deanie is a very particular chap, a bit like me not anybody will do, like you pal yer one of them.

about the allegations you made Mick were as Tom Thumb described dont gloss it over

you changed the whole site panicked like hell, you should not have said it

pray what was the aggreement you came to?

deanie couldnt take you to court of course, you could not have possibly paid his costs could you?

Yorkie, the visitors of a conferance are called delegates. In order to enter the conferance you have to be a delegate. The conferance is being staged in two locations with a controled and secure route for the delegates to walk between them. The area surrounding both locations has been closed to all traffic and a "ring of steel" has been put in place to enforce these road closures and maintain a secure enviroment for all delegates.

The first day of the conferance was yesterday, last night (for the first time in its history) the "boat" (Tuxedo Princess) nightclub refunded the few people that were there and closed at 11pm. The Baja Beach Club was (again for the first time in its history) was not full to capacity, the exact same with Buffalo Joe's, and the La Riviera resteraunt was closed.

The delegates not staying at the Hilton are either staying at the Copthorne or the Mal-Mason hotels, both of which are within walking distance of the main conferance buildings.

I was in the area all night last night as I will be tonight, I asked the lads if they had picked up any delegates (including lads who work for offices) and only very local trips were undertaken, most of which were to the car park of the Civic Centre.

Last night the drivers said they had took a quarter of what they would have expected to take, the "boat" probably didn't cover costs, Baja and Buffalo Joes both took signifigantly less than they would normally and as I said La Riviera didn't even bother opening.

So where is all this money Yorkie, I didn't see very many PH cars waiting for pre-bookings so its not like someone was getting something.

Sussex, whats the crack when political parties have conferances where you are, Cgull may I ask the same.

Just let the bloke have his say. :sad:

Nidge if u wannna get back back on under a different handle do the following: Could not blame u pal if u could not be bothered. :-|

Disconnect the broadband for 48 hours, when it goes back on there is a high prob that it will be a different IP address which will mean u can register instantly with a different handle. :wink:

Good luck kid in all u do, I 4 one will miss ya and your views, what is the point of having a discussion forum when members views are censored just because, they hold a different view to someone else :?:

Or indeed want to expose someone else to protct us :roll:

makes no sense at all.

Guess Yorkie is working now eh? Be interested to know what u think about all this s**t mate. :oops:

Still something to do to wind down after a busy saturday night eh? :wink:
