  2. My ex-wife and I had this happen to us a couple of years ago. Our local gym (name excluded to protect the guilty) forgot the decimal point for their ENTIRE direct debit run one month. Every member at that branch was affected. Mine bounced, and I was charged £30 by the bank for the privilege. My wife was debited *several* thousand pounds. The gym mailed out to all the customers, gave away a truckload of discount vouchers, and paid back all the money, plus any bank charges etc. Talk about egg-on-face...

    Black Peas!

    In NZ, BK's fries are yummy, but in the UK, they're horrible. They must cook them in something different... In NZ, KFC put some form of Chicken flavouring powder onto the fries which makes them the best, IMHO.
  16. That reminds me of a bumper sticker I once saw: "I love animals... they're delicious!"
  17. "This thing is powered by four-rockets and actually flies. In fact, he's going to prove it out in California, next week." I'll look forward to hearing how his test goes, because it doesn't look particularly aerodynamic...
  18. If one synchronised swimmer drowns, does the other one have to aswell?
  19. Is that the same sort of error as I mention in this post? http://www.edugeek.net/index.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=8308&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=214 Because of it I *still* haven't updated our school site
