    Nothings changed. It's funding time so the NAO pumps out a meaningless, wishy washy press release.

    I have a friend who went to work for the NAO, really smart guy who wanted to get into public service after selling his accountancy firm for millions. Left after 2 months because it is filled with total morons.

    I think graham works at the NAO. Oh no, hold on he works for the NHS, oh no hold on he works for MSE (as he spends more time on here than whatever it is that he should be doing).

    For the 17th, boring time. I don't work for the NHS.

    For the 17th, boring time. I fill in tax returns each and every year to pay my taxes.

    Are you kidding me? He is a civil servant as well?

    edit: Oh no he's not, he sounds retired. Certainly got the "doddery" thing going on.

    You're joking I thought he was a housing expert for the whole UK, he seems to know about house prices on every street from London to Aberdeen.

    Must have posted an article you lot didn't like.

    Ahh well. Carry on the attack that I'm wasting my employers time, while you all sit here starting these squabbles everytime you see an article that offends you. I'm assuming your not unemployed?

    Dearie me.

    Which article didn't they like? The one you convinced yourself they didn't like?

    Every article you post gets ripped to bits just like your posts that are discredited time after time and then you go running like now because you can't back your points up. Weak.

    It's fascinating how Devon posts an article with a comment that he has designed to inflame other board members with and then he runs off crying when they react as he planned.

    He's as big a drama queen as that carolt one was. I can see Devon dressed like Scarlett O'Hara with the back of his hand pressed against his forehead, leaning against the strong chest of Reb 'the Thrug' Bulter crying "Oh Thrug, these people are perfectly beastly to me. As God is my witness, I'll never post again!'.

    It's embarrassing behaviour for a man.
