    What the hell are those rubber clogs everyone is wearing?

    I saw the newspaper headlines over the weekend and it said that thes crocs are going to be banned because they have that much static in them they are interfering with hospital equipment. I think the headline was CROCS CAN KILL or something.

    Have You Ever Been Hypnotised?

    The best subject I've ever seen was a workmate called Chris Mellor. When Eddie Burke the hypnotist was performing Chris would always be the main performer. At about the fourth concert Chris decided to go out of the room during the prelimanaries and stood outside. Somebody shouted him in when all...

    Have You Ever Been Hypnotised?

    I've seen a stage hypnotist called Eddie Burke at least seven times and twice I was a subject. He went through about thirty minutes of pre-hypnotism before we were chosen. The thing is I knew everything I was doing but couldn't stop myself but I was told later that if it had been something...

    Just had the biggest shock of my life

    :eek: I feel your pain knowing you've been a SCFC season ticket holder and now you find out you're a Burslem lad. I don't know if I can't let this slip out onto the assembly lines at work. I hope you find justice with your parents letting you be born in Burslem.

    Over six hundred of us just made redundant

    At the very least I will get fifty times my weekly wage + other loyalty bonuses. It will add up to over a years wages for me. Its all tax free too.

    Over six hundred of us just made redundant

    Both. All our best selling products were sent to Italy and Poland to be made and the products we were left with aren't selling very well. Its bad management at the end of the day because with the other products we'd be a major force. Out of the nineteen factories they have around Europe we are...

    Now that is unlucky

    For those who know the Stoke area there is a big roundabout at the end of the A50 by the incinerator. There are traffic on there and my mate was waiting on red to eventually turn right and head towards Stoke. The lights turned to green and he slammed straight into the side of a police car that...

    dmpoole's tips for new gigging bands

    I go to watch a lot of local bands and nearly every point mentioned above comes up again and again. There is one local band I go to watch who are an absolute pleasure because of their professionalism on stage. They tune up from the same tuner ten minutes before they go on. Two mins before they...

    My life as an ex computer pirate

    Just to answer some questions I was not in the scene. I was a humble factory boy who had his MP3's delivered through the post, bragged about it and everybody wanted a piece of me. All my customers were out of the offices and a lot of them were my bosses so I had to keep them sweet. Even when I...

    My life as an ex computer pirate

    People are asking why I didn't fight when there was little evidence. As far as I was concerned there was loads of evidence and I was guilty as charged. Compared to my mate who had his house taken away I was lucky. I had also bought shame on my wife, kids and parents etc. I gladly accepted their...
