    I thought that too. It's the first I've seen it because it was removed so quickly the other night.

    I think more likely that someone? took a screenshot of it before it was removed and it was passed to the press....along with a lot of other info, rather than the press monitoring the thread.

    I've just checked and it was removed within 4 minutes of it being posted at 9.59am yesterday so I doubt that any journalist was reading that closely or being that quick!

    I agree. Also thinking about the Don Simon screenshot from MSM that's in the article as well....that's got to be a few weeks old.....strange:cool:
  • Good afternoon one & all

    What a busy day we have had so far today

    Sold a rug on Gumtree, met the buyer in centre of Glasgow

    Opened a bank account for baby Ben at Virgin Money 3% easy access

    Spent money we got for rug in Nandos yumyum :D

    Done 3 seperate shops in A ;), found 5 wombles :j

    Went to Lidl & got DD wet fleece lined jacket & trousers, very pleased with quality for the price :)

    Now chilling with a cup of coffee & catching up

    Jags
    Shop one - A vs T
    Shop two - A vs W
    And then repeat :j:j:j
    & now add - A vs S
    What the heck A vs the world :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Yippee ...now to try and find some things that require the yolks to be removed from the whites .

    If only JJ was here she'd know plenty :(

    a couple of idea's, if you are left with the whites - mirangues (don't know how to spell it!)

    yolks - mayonaisse
    It's the thought that counts.......I think a lot!
