    Cash Convertors

    I've been tasked with flogging our old Home Cinema system, I am toying with the idea of a collection only eBay sale or sticking it on my local Gumtree site, but before I do, has anybody had any example of flogging stuff to Cash Convertors? I am guessing I might not get as much as if I held out...

  2. Flintoff Fit to Return to the Scene of the Crime

    A criminal always returns to the scene of the crime. Jack the Ripper never strayed too far from Whitechapel, and England wept with joy at the news that Andrew Flintoff will be fit to return to Edgbaston, the scene of his slaughter of eleven Australians in August 2005. That fateful game four...

    Question Is something going on between Tilly and Ron ?

    No, silly , I don't mean are they having an affair, but has some sort of rift developed or is a political game being played out between them ? Its funny how opinions can change but 2/3 weeks ago when we seemed to be getting mixed messages over the attempted signing of Ben Chorley, I felt that...

  4. Question Fancy dress ideas?

    Ok basically I have a fancy dress party at the weekend and am looking to spend no cash on a funny outfit, so what I want to know is if the members of the zone have ever made any funny home made costumes before, and if so can you share the secret on how to make them. Currently toying with the...

  5. Stopping Snoring

    After 3/4 months of enjoying the single life, I've started to see someone new and, so far, it's been going great. She's attractive, had a great body and has a good sense of humour. There's only one thing getting in the way at the moment... She snores like a ****ing truck. When I first...

    Oldham away idea

    Just an idea to put forward that the club may wish to subsidise coach travel for the last away game of the season to really give the lads a good send off on the away games for 2008/09 season? I don't expect the club to pay for it but maybe help with the pricing just as a thank you from the club...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Ricky Otto

    Next up for election to the Hall of Fame is Ricky Otto. Ricky Otto had it all: skill, flair and funny looking hair. He was signed by B****y F*y for £100,000, a fee that seems suspiciously high for a Leyton Orient reserve. I won't make any libellous suggestions about brown envelopes...

    Wilkins Worried By Wobbles

    After a hard night at Roots Hall, Luis Felipe Scolari was in no mood to face the media. Perhaps he was locked in the dressing room with a blackboard, some chalk and a squad still struggling to understand the concept of zonal marking. Whatever the reason, it was Ray Wilkins who squeezed into the...

    Any boiler people/clever people

    My house is cold. Electrician/Plumber/Corgi people are expensive. All thermostat's are pointing to 22 degrees. Yet house temperature was 16 degrees, so we look at the boiler and come to the conclusion that the radiator thermostat is too low to be able to heat the house. However, this knob has...

    Havn't seen a single rumour about any signings, or any players seen at the club or anything on here today!? Are we expecting anyone extra to come in today or we sticking with what we got? anyone out there got anything to share!?

  17. we're here because we're here because we're here ......

    and I don't think theres any available affordable players out there who we can get in to improve things .... so here we are with a very young team full of raw talent and unlimited potential trying to exist in a very tough professional league - and on Saturday they got done - not least because...

    Midweek Funnies

    There are two Mexicans who have been lost in the desert for weeks, and they're at death's door. As they stumble on, hoping for salvation in the form of an oasis or something similar, they suddenly spy, through the heat haze, a tree, off in the distance. As they get closer, they can see that...

    Smooth Operator: 27 ways to make girls smile.... NOT SUITABLE FOR EVERYONE

    Number 22 makes me laugh... 1. When she asks how she looks, shrug and say "could be better" - this will keep her on her toes. And girls love that. 2. Never hold her hand. This can be interpreted as a sign of weakness, (or if she grabs your hand, squeeze hers really really hard until she...
