Steve, yes I would have to say no, but only out of a sense of social conscience, 16% would be much to greedy a pay rise to ask for what with the recession and everything.... I feel a 2% pay rise to be in line with inflation and no more than nurses get. I am not nearly as sexy as nurses either, I once dressed up in my sister's nurses uniform to prove this point. My sister is not a nurse, she just got the uniform for "marital reasons" and is embarressed to talk about it in public especially when I bring it up in a "harping on, not letting it drop ever" sort of way as she often reminds me.

I totally agree that 76p is important, I once lost 83p at the bus stop whilst fumbling for the change for the bus at the last moment. I had waited for over 18 mins for the bus to come and had all that time to get my money together for the fare, but like a complete wally I left it till the last moment.
The bus driver said in a rather uncaring way " I don't really care about your 83p either get on the bus or look for your change all day, either way I am going"
Needless to say, I had to get on the bus and leave my 83p to its own devices.

However, I just could not sleep that awfull fatefull money losing night, and first thing the next morning , having only the smallest of breakfasts consisting of a solitary halibut, and wearing my old clothes I set off down the road with the intent of finding my 83p.

Little did I realise what a bizzarre set of circumstances was going to be brought down upon me by the cruel hand of fate.
On arriving at the bus stop in our village, I immediately squatted down to look under the bench where my 83p had been known to roll the day before.
I looked and looked, imagine my surprise when I found that somebody or somepersons (probably pensioners)  had taken my 83p and swapped it for a scratched CD, a condom and some pizza not even in a bag, and given 4p change.

What sort of "fair trade" is that you may well ask, I certainly did, I felt I had been robbed.
Using my brain, I decided that the pizza was not going to keep very fresh as the sun was getting up, not having any clingfilm, I hit upon the excellent Idea of using the condom as a makeshift baggy, after I folded in the pointy corner of the pizza, it worked very well. I felt sure that a surprise piece of pizza would get me in the misses's good books, after all I had eaten the last halibut, and she had been left with only a chinese takaway for breakfast again. (and a small pie)

Totally deflated at my inability to return home with adequate funds, my attention turned to aquiring the morning paper.
They sell these at the garage, so into the garage I went.
Unfortunately, having not got 83p in my pocket, I found that even with the 4p change that the rogue pensioners had left me plus the 21p I had in a corner of my leather, I could not afford my usual morning paper, and had to settle for a cheaper paper that I was unfamiliar with, it's called the "Daily sport" and might even have motorbike racing in it I thought.

Anyways, one mission accomplished and one failed, all things considered, life might return to normal I thought as I walked home.

I was thinking about shaky burns and if he would have any luck this season, and was miles away.
I just got to the school crossing, and heard a voice shout "oy you"
I didn't think for a moment it was "Oy me", but I looked up to see who the "oy" was for, and it turned out that the "oy you" was being "oyed" by the school crossing policeman, and it was indeed "oyed" at me.

I stopped, and think I may have cursed the 83p again.

Apparently I had ripped a seam in the bum of me jeans whilst scrabbling about under the bench looking for me 83p and now had to talk to the policeman about it.

Which may or may not have gone better had he not wanted to look in my pocketsies.
He took out my tobacco and put it on the wall, that was OK, He took out my lighter and put that on the wall.
Things went wobbly when he found the pizza .
He put that on the wall.
He put the Daily sport on the wall, and at the same time informed me that things were not looking good.
I can honestly say I had not noticed that the CD the pensioners had swapped me (for my 83p) had "dont show Mum" written on it.
He put that in his own plastic bag, then put it on the wall.
"what sort of bare bummed, condomfood, dodgy CD porno paper pervert are you then?" he said.
"It was probably pensioners that did it" I answered. " They swapped me for 83p"
I might have got away with leaving it at that,
except,
He squinted his eyes and looked at me real close and said "ear hang on, haven't I seen you on youtube dressed in a nurses uniform?"
My own sister had taken the 83p to get her own back obviously.

Well , I found this on a Piano forum I am a member of.
If anyone fancies getting the set up together themselves, count me in as the Player-Pillion.
I can play rock etc but prefer to play classical.

I would love this set up as it would resolve the issue of busking with a piano.
The way this "outfit" turns is amazing, I can testify that using both hands behind my back I cannot even lift a corner of a grand piano 1mm off the ground....Steinway send a "team" of six men out to get them on the dollies. amazing...

Well, The "Pontyates Probiscus's" roving reporter Taffy Mab Scrote, and his trusty photographer the lovely and yet elusive Pollyana Period- Pantz, were out and about in the village today, on the scene of a very scary early morning Zombie attack at the site of a normally quiet graveyard.
The "Pontyates Probiscus " is (for those unfamilier with the Welsh) the "eyes and ears " of the village community.

Arriving on the scene of a partially successfull zombie repulsion, it was soon ascertained that an extremely brave motorist had used her familly's inadequate vauxhall as a battering ram against a "horde" of zombies that were attempting to climb out of the graveyard over the retaining wall.

Eye witness "Dai ab pugh ap price mab Jones" (by way of stepsister) confirmed " I had a urinary tract infection and definately not prostate trouble so I couldn't sleep you see?" (normal welsh dielect requires a question at the end of each statement that is both aquisitory and yet has no answer.)
 
He went on to explain; " so I was walking the old boy,( much to my relief  he pointed to his dog) wasn't it? and I seen em, coming over the wall from where the dead people normally are sleeping quiet isn't it?
Right queer do too, and proper scary to be had, I be telling you. Fair play to the Lady driver, she managed to squash a few onto the wall there isn't it? But the rest went off down the hill."
Asked about the whereabouts of the squashed zombies, Dai ab pugh ap price mab jones pulled me to one side and whispered " the old bill wasn't it, they had on those rubber gloves, frightened of the infection you see? Took all the evidence in special plastic bags isn't it?"

Whilst Pollyana took photos of the "ground zero" scene, your intrepid roving reporter broke the terms of a current court  injunction; and emailed Milla Jovovich to inform her that in all probability the Umbrella corporation had miss-appropriated the T virus into  Plaid cymru's hands and as a consequence it was now mutating in Pontyates, believing that the inclusion of Pollyanas photographic evidence in the email, would indeed secure Milla's vital help before the infection got out of hand.

Furthermore, I informed her, "It's urgent too" as yours truly had noticed, that if you "click" to make the photo  of the graveyard big , you will clearly  see  The Immortal name "Aviation flyer"

This (I emphasise most strongly) is NOT a stonemasons mistake; it is the name of a man from Victorian times, who had the most scientifically baffling ability to actually fly small distances usually accomplished after Chapel on a Sunday morning, allthough not exlusively, there being recorded an incident of minor levitation after a quarrell concerning a halibut. Gossip and rumour of the day that "Aviation flyer" was just practising a cleverly adapted Victorian "leaping" technique have been dissmissed as "pure jealousy"

"The greatest fear," I stated in the email to Milla, "is that should "Aviation flyer" be amongst the escapee zombies,  the infection will become Airborne"

Local arable Farmer and chicken inseminator Gwillum "I beat cancer so far" Price Ab Morgan, went further than most in his unsolicitated statement to the Pontyates Probiscus by shouting "I'm aving none of that, I aint, isnt it? and emphasised his view point by brandishing his antique, trusty   "Hippy shooting" gun, hurredly retrived from the  back of his untaxed 4X4. pointing it in the general (but not exclusive) direction of the graveyard, he yelled " call me old fashioned , or even a Welsh nationalist if you likes, but I believe the dead should stay dead, regardless of all the modern ways of thinking and  fancy trendy things like mobile phones, toasters, and roller skates."

Realising that outside the confines of the village , the whole country was busy being charged £416.32 per person for the cost of a wedding that they were not even invited to, it occurred to the staff at the Pontyates Probiscus that a larger and wider outbreak of the "infection" could have consequences for the Royal occasion.
Should the infection reach Windsor before Friday, and should the Queen Mother become undead, (again) she could (possibly) naturally gravitate to westminster Abbey, Moreover, Should Princess Diana also become undead, then it is also conceivable that she too would heave herself there albeit in a slow yet methodical way.
It is a well documented fact that zombies are drawn to crowds of people, and it is advised that all royal spectators on Friday keep a sharp look out for Zombies instead of mindlessly waving at rich folk.

If the Queen Mother and Diana evade the  security perimeter around the Abbey , and infect the revellers , it will still be possible to pick out the blushing bride, as she will be the zombie in the Primark dress with the label removed.
 At the time of going to press, it is calculated that the number of "infected" within the village of pontyates ( not including John "the alky" who just walks like a Zombie as is his way) could be as high as 16.
The lady car driver (who can not be named for ongoing inquiries with the pubs landlord) escaped with slight injuries to her daughter and Ipod , the bite marks came from her uncles dog that sometimes "nips when excited but is only playing and doesn't mean any harm."
The vauxhall car that was being driven was declared a "totall loss" by the farmers union insurance group, as well as Jeremy Clarkson when Top gear road tested the same model in 1978.

It is duly noted that it is certainly cheaper to not go to the wedding than to go to it.
In a secretly leaked document to the Pontyates Probiscus , we can now show how much pressies that are on "Prinnys List" will cost. Pressies that are not on "Prinnys List" no matter how well coloured in they are or even how carefully wrapped will not be tolerated.
Prinnys List;
A big sailing yachty thing like Paters but better; £10,000,000,000.
A man to make my pants be on me in the morning; £72,000 per annum.
An Antique Persian rug for "rug slidey" parties at our new home;£67,000.
Our new home ; £800,000,000 per annum.
Helicopter, whirley -whurly £ TBA.
A man to make my pants be orf me at night:£74,000 per annum.
Dancing bear, £ 34,000 per annum.
An Elton John in a box £?
Lords and Ladies "a leaping" (well you may get that free, but techniqually it is "flying")

Hya pasty...
I believe it goes on the frame no. + a little help from the VJMC if it's to do with convincing Swansea DVLA.
You didn't mention what bike it was.?
For the Cb750 for example, there is a little lee way , as in the  early days of manufacture , most went to the USA and we had to wait...
A bike that was registered in this country say in Aprill for example, may well have been built the year before.
What is your bike, and what is the frame number?
I have a few books I can look in, but if its borderline you will need the VJMC.

I just found a couple of pics of Diana dolls...
The first was for public sale and made fire retardent so the Queen couldnt get one and taunt it with candles Voodoo style. (she did anywaybut it didn't work, it just made Diana look red in the face with the heat)
The second was made not for public sale and made just for the Queen, it obviously shows Diana in her Grave and Gives the Queen great amusement when she feels down.

IT appears that it could well be hard to avoid any mention of the Royal Pre-divorce festivities on telly next week, even if you haven't bought a Kate middle of the road Doll.

Cammilla Park her balls will be there it transpires but will be wearing a veil so as not to take the focus off the more beautifull Horses. (Charlie will not be riding her there after all.)

All Fayad did not get a ticket to westminster abbey, It is believed it's because he refused to sell the Kate middle of the road doll in Harrods, even though it comes with free replica engagement ring worth $55.
It has been alleged mr. Al Fayad called the ring tacky and said he had won better ones at the fairground.

The Pope has not yet given his public blessing to the soon to be very unhappy couple, In a statement given today the Pope showed his Hostitlity towards Prince William, claiming that William "Totally failed in His crusade to win back the Holy City of Jerusalam from the grip of the Saracen usurper"
And called the marriage " A Gross and unacceptable Dereliction of Duty"

The Arch Bishop of Canterbury , a normally quiet allthough sometimes outspoken critic of voodoo, has expressed "grave reservations" about the choice of music for the pre-divorce ceremony.

In an interview given to the Pontyates probiscus (the eyes and ears of the Welsh valleys)
He commented " It is only my opinion, but the first song chosen by the soon to be unhappy couple, from the musical Caberet; "Tommorrow belongs to me" has, Overt Natzi overtones, and I am not completely happy with it.

The second piece of music, The more traditional hymn "Jerusalem" allthough a nice tune, may atagonise  the Catholic element amongst us especially those Papists who also think William failed in his duty to wrest the Holy city from the Saracen usurper.

Completely dissmissing the suggestion that the third piece of music would be Paul Anka's Diana, and personally Karioked by Kate middle of the road, He said "thats about as likely as Elton Johns Candle in the wind first being written for Marylin Monroe, and then changed just for a Princess, It would be like saying 'Heres a secondhand song for a seconhand princess' and would again be unacceptable."

Commutors around the Westminster Abbey area have reported hearing "March of the Valkeries" being played on the Organ within the Abbey, When Put to the Arch-Bishop, he claimed "The organist is probably practising for another wedding, probably one more Germanic"

When it was suggested to the the Arch-Bishop that there will without doubt be many, many helicopters scrutinizing every rooftop for homeless people during the whole day, and therefore, should "march of the valkeries" be played it could conjure up a lot of fear in ordinary folk, He was heard to mutter "oh my god yes apocalypse now, I thought you meant Vagner was a natzi, and that would be two natzi songs you would be accusing us of sanctioning!"

"Off the record" said the Arch-bishop, "what would you have?"
I said "on the record, I would have 'Nights In White Satin' ,but I wouldn't advise that as folks might focus in on the "Nights" bit, and start thinking about the crusades again and Williams failure to secure the citadel at you know where."

And that was that.

I am off to do research on exactly how much this is going to cost us all, even those of us who havent bought the kate middle of the road Doll... I expect to report back with an exact figure per person....
Plus,
The staggering financial and mental cost of avoiding it all, with some "avoidence" tips and hints.

What ho k2-k6 ! jolly good show an all that.
Had a bit of a run in with the kitchen maids today, new girl, needed a telling orf and putting straight.
Silly lass thought yours truly would be shelling out for some sort of soothing cream for the damn thrashing dished out to her for having an untidy uniform.
All the Royal police should be practising for the Pre-divorce thingy that happens in the Abbey first.
Apparently Mr. Al Fayad is definately NOT invited after all, I think because he has refused to stock Kate Middle of the road Dolls in his shop. (Harrods is compulsory for all wedding gifts or you get beheaded)
In his defence he stated that "The manufactures are giving away a replica engagement ring that they claim is worth $55." "I know this not to be true" said Mr Al fayad. And went on to explain how he took the ring with the alledged value of $55 put it in an envelope and added
