Does anyone like this band? I am torn about them, some songs are good and stick to your mind and some others are a little too insipid and uninspired. They have a truly terrible name (what is it with all these bands and terrible names these days?) but they aren't to be discarded altogether. I particularly like 'Bear Fight' and the album ''Unbeast The Leash'' has some really good songs on it.

If you close your eyes and think of yourself as being blind they have some decent songs.

I closed my eyes and spilt a can of coke over my desk. Cheers for that.

You pay only 55p for your napkins? You really embrace the workforce of third world countries, don't you?

An unrelated question about Burger King's pricing structure.
how, when a single cheeseburger costs £1.29, can they charge £2.79 for a double cheesburger? I asked this question of the person serving me the other day and they had no idea. We'd managed to establish that the only difference between the single and the double is the extra burger and slice and cheese, so effectively I'd be paying more for less. Needless to say I simply bought two single cheeseburgers. Small victories such as these really are what life's all about sometimes. |

it's only makes a difference if you take the train in a regular basis

Are you talking about the 5p ticket? I have seen people doing that.

no, if you have the 5p ticket then they make you pay the full fare when you get off, and those things can only be bought if the ticket office at a station is closed.
