Thanks for your concern Fred .... but cheap DVDs are cheap DVDs, and us NHS workers don't get much cash!

Hello Bats...

I don't know the "concern" for which you offer your gratitude but my post was more a statement of disapproval at the ethics of Tesco rather than a plea for anyone to reconsider their patronage of the afore-mentioned company.

I totally condone and support your ability to finance your NHS lifestyle in any way possible, regardless of MY personal ethics.

That Budgie Box-Set is obviously of prime importance to some folks.




"Cheap DVDs are cheap DVDs......."





They certainly are......


Regards
Fred

You're quite correct, Stephen. Blame the bottle of Pouilly-Fuisse and an emotional evening in front of "I'll Do Anything" and "Britains Got Talent" !!!

However.......with a retrospective discount of fifteen points for non-association with W**M**T , they still score 85% in the Freeloader BadAss Top-Ten .

Thank you

Fred xx

ps....damn.....a smilie slipped through the net.

That's risky isn't it? Watching programmes like that with something throwable by you side

I'm loath to use the LOL but I did just laugh at your comment.

I have to admit to being reduced to tears on three occasions and my only defense is to state a deep love of Tarkovsky and JS Bach

I caught the last 20mins or so of this whilst waiting for Doctor Who.

Seems an odd contest; winning means that the British public think you are more like a Victorian prostitute than your fellow competitors?

I think you give the "British public" more literary cognoscence than they deserve.

I actually read Oliver Twist this year and I now realise what a deceptive and immoral thief Lionel Bart was in his decimation of Dickens.

Thank you for your continued support Fred ..... Tesco made my boy very happy yesterday by being the only shop that had in stock the particular Iron Man action figure he wanted .....and the Budgie box-set is a damn fine piece of merchandise.

On your way to becoming "Wit of the Year", Steve. I think that's the right spelling!

Start every day with a smile and get it over with.

A joke that Mr Norton got out of the way in the first programme and was actaully very restrained about not repeating.

Supposedly next year, Lloyd-Webber wants to do Jesus Christ Superstar though I can't see anyway they can be at all tasteful about the essential catchphrase of 'You could be Jesus!' and the cute nicknames - Irish Jesus, Jewish Jesus, Camp Jesus and so on.

I'm still stuck in 'delayed land'. I'd have preferred it if they'd have said the item was out of stock as most retailers do.
