    'Tis a policy to make the public feel better and many people working in airline security think it should be abolished. Hopefully it will soon.

    Is this an informed hopefully, or a frustrated one?

    BBC2 for some "turn a business around" goodness. A bakery.

    I've been in there, I bet it ends up as "You've got a bakery, you should be selling an experience". And they'll posh it up and reduce the huge floorspace you have to walk across before you get as far as the intimidating looking staff.

    The woman annoys me .... obviously grew her business based on location and contacts when you read her wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Polizzi

    She makes out in the programme that her/her bloke started from nothing .... but that's not entirely true when you read that.

    This bloke (BBC2) doesn't know how to cold call and door knock. He should be out there doing that, not sitting on his 4rse then arriving to say he's got a list of 6 he could approach (but hasn't).

    That's the thing that really irritates me. IT and sales director but can't recognise the bread and can't even send some samples out etc.

    He wasn't even there to help sell in the mobile business.

    I have had enough. I want to decorate a room. All this...when you don't rent you can do what you want stuff has so fR been boloney....i cN't get in the way of the N, but the plan is too slow. I have asked in the in yer home forum, but maybe doozer can help.

    I want to get the sotting room decent. I am fed up of the filfthy old carpet and ripped Nd puckered wall paper. One nice room. Its not too much to ask is it?


    The walls Re really fragile, the paper is puckered and ripped, sort of shredded, in the corners...from movement of the house maybe? Anyway, i need to get it off too paint, but the plaster will be fragile. I think its a mixture of old p
    Laster an guess is has modern patches...e.g. Some fireplace work hS been (badly) done and replasters Rou d there...i know that becUse the wallpaper is hanging off on one side.

    How do i get thje cruddy paper off without damaging the plaster? If i damage thie plaster it goes from being a slosh paint Bout and get a cRpet for a few years job to a bigger job we cannot afford with the kitchen work this year...
