Kompany is pretty tall.

By the way, not liking the font. I liked the larger Arial, 10.5 looks sexual.

I've seen #RIPLarryShippers trending most of the day, one quick look online told me some One Direction fans committed suicide after a documentary about their fans last night.

Is this true or not? It all sounds completely fucked up.

Here's some homework for you.
Find anything about that story which isn't either a tweet from someone with no connection to anyone who died or a "news" story reporting on said tweets. If I was a cynic, I'd say that Channel 4 planted rumours to give their documentary more buzz. But maybe people are just stupid.

I used to, this new one looks OK at 100% though.

Public procurement has to be the dumbest process anyone has ever thought up.

Doing a great job? Well fuck you, these other guys say they'll do even better for much less.

If procurement policy was based on value-for-money, compared to "who will do it cheapest", then the Daily Mail mob would scream socialism.

On the other hand, the adult education school I attend wouldn't be run by fucking amateurs who can't provide a literature list or a schedule on time.

What fucking moron uploads a school schedule exclusively in a proprietary format that requires paid-for software to be viewed rather than a simple .jpeg that anyone could view? http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/images/smilies/facepalm.gif

It's a very quaint, upmarket town in Surrey. I've only been a few times, I've spent far more time in Guildford which is larger but relatively similar. It's just a run of the mill Surrey town with I used to play football against Charterhouse there. Nice bird who'd hate you and your Irish drawl.

Rent wise I have no idea, i'd estimate at about £150pw in a flat, but I have no straight idea. As for food, beer, cigarettes, clothes... it's going to be near enough the same price as London. Are you going to the college there?

It's the not the most vibrant place in the world, that's for sure, but it's pretty close to Guildford which has got a good set of bars and restaurants filled with young sluts. I suppose if it gets you into England and near to London then you can use it as a stepping stone.

Savage cabbage. Supposed to be on the rail line to Waterloo so it's not too bad. One of my mates is getting a job in Clerkenwell so stalling in London centre and crashing with him is also an option

I spent some time working in Chertsey, which is also in Surrey, and if you can avoid it then don't commute from London to Surrey. Guildford isn't that far away, maybe 30-35 minutes on the train, but it's the sheer organisation of getting there that's annoying. To Chertsey I was waking up at half six in the morning to be out of the house by seven so I could be at Putney for 7:30 so I could get the 7:41 to Chertsey so I could be at work for 8:45. Only commute from the countryside into London if you have kids and need the space of a real house.

Yeah I suggested crashing with him only for nights out. Definitely don't want to be commuting far every day for work

Not to mention a season ticket into London from my station (about an hours journey) now costs over £5k. Extortionate costs to commute into London every day.

Tube, zones 1-3, is approximately £1300 a year, which if you just use for back and forth daily from Zone 2 to 1 saves you about fifty pounds a month. It's just a bit fucking heavy to drop that kind of cash in one go. A friend of mine got his company to loan him the cash to do it.

Speaking of money, the registration for the first batch of World Cup tickets opened today. Shit sure as hell isn't cheap.
