When/how/why did the muppets become a derogatory thing? I like the muppets and they're rather cute...

We fly to the new pubs' 1000th post!

Cari, I blame Steve Wright.

Is there a 2000 post limit?

CARI - 'muppet' is a result of the sweary filter. Try a few words, see how long it takes you. I got it in one, not at2 attempts

No Staggy, no limits.

PENFRO - not just on here, but generally. People use it as an insulting term.

CARI -

Cari. Steve Wright has a quiz on his Radio 2 show. If somebody got a low score he'd call them a muppet. He's from Essex so may be reflecting the dialect round there, but that's how the term came to wider prominence.

Grand up?

Well I wouldn't mind if someone called me a muppet because I think they're great.

I'd be this one if I was a muppet:

stupid sexy dancing has me tired.

Micky I will email you a map for your mate.

Mr McKay was in Fraggle rock wasn't he? Not as nasty as he was in Porrage, but largely the same character!

Thanks Stag, although if you just have an address of somewhere we can just kick it new school and put it into the sat nav.

Best option is try get a housing estate near stadium. Theres one we use a lot.

Aye and he had a dog called Sprocket.

MICKY - your dancing on Friday night was very amusing.

would you know the address of it or the street name Stag? or maybe we just put the stadium into the sat nav and see where we end up.

Cari, the dancing on Saturday night took on a mind of its own I do believe.

Ah you have to be careful where you park near there. Moyross borders it.

Yeah if some young fellas offer to look after the car for you, you know you're parking in the wrong place.

oh yeh that's right. well if you have the street address, we will chuck it into the sat nav and make our way from there.

Well this is a pretty class car my mate just bought so I suspect he will take all necessary precautions.

MUNSTY, I miss your face. there I said it.

That is very kind of you sir.

Oh yes, better send on that song I serenaded you with on the walk home Saturday night.

You sung a song walking home?? Can't say I remember that, mind you I can't remember much after swapping my top!

Oh yeh, I liked that one. do please Munsty. Prop think you were a few paces back with Mickado..

it was a real song you would hear an Irish man sing in some old Irish pub in America or something.

il send you on mine to.. although if you search for Dancing on the ceiling - Lionel Ritchie you should find it

Is there an emoticon thing for screaming loudly and banging your head repeatedly on the desk??? If so, that is what I am doing right now. Not having a good day at work!!!!!

will that do LDCP?

I'd like to do that to the people I am currently dealing with at the CPS Cari, they are driving me insane today!!!

Pete, I'm right there with you!

Strange that Pete. They do that to me as well!

Glas, I sometimes (all the time) think (know) that if we dealt direct with the defence and cut out the middle man (CPS) then things would run a lot more efficiently in relation to the court process!!!

That would explain it Micky! Oh and that's the last time I let someone who doesn't know the area to elad the way back ey munsty

Yes Pete. The latest directive from above now is no bind overs to be accepted after pleas. Every section 5 now runs to trial with at least one Police Officer sitting in court all day waiting to be called.

I used to work for the CPS

Here is todays argument with the CPS.

Person x and person y are charged with a serious offence and remanded in custody. They have a plea and case management hearing on 8th June meaning we (the prosecution) must serve our evidence on the defence team by 25th May for them to consider, in order that the defendants can decide whether to plead guilty or not guilty on the 8th.

When x and y were arrested they were both interviewed with the same defence solicitor present in interview. They replied 'No Comment' to every question asked. The same solicitor who was in the interviews will be representing them in court.

The CPS want me to drop what I am doing, drive 17 miles to the station where the master tapes of the interviews are, and copy them, then drive another 8 miles to take them to the CPS, so the CPS can serve them on the defence, who's office is 100 yards from the police station, so that they know what the defendants said in interview!



I have told them they can whistle for them.

Yes well section 34 of the PCJA has lost it's teeth at the hands of the judges somewhat. "We want to know what questions they didn't answer." "Why, it won't make a difference!" I feel your pain Pete.

Well I won't comment on the above, but having worked for the CPS and the courts I see things from the other side of the fence. The whole criminal justice system is frustrating because each agency has their own targets set by the government that they're expected to meet, and when they can't (through no fault of their own) it messes things up for the other agencies they work with.

I've been activated on my standby damn it. Ash Cloud related and I am possibly off to France or Spain again like last year. I hope I don't have to go, but obviously if I do I don't mind in the slightest enabling people to get back from Afghan etc.

Dragons have released 16 players. Most of you won't know most of them, but these are the biggest names I guess. Matthew Jay Watkins is one, Nathan Brew another, Rhodri Gomer Davies and Arthur Ellis (Hound will know him)

Where is Rhodri Gomer Davies going? I thought he was OK.

I've heard of them, well except Ellis.

I don't think anyone knows what the ash cloud's going to do.

Is Arthur Ellis being kept on by Newport though rev?

Guess it means another split from his brother Hugo too!!

I doubt it Prop. I guess it means released from the Region in total. A lot of the other names were predominately "Gwent" Club players too.

No they don't do they Cari. It won't be as bad this time though. Mrs R is flying on holiday on the weekend from Glasgow, so hopefully that'll be alright.

Heard a rumour that RGD is going to the O's? To add to the rest of the " talent we've pinched"

'Arthur Ellis' released. Guess he'll be off to the O's too, it's like blydi 'It's a Knockout' down there

AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think pete's just exploded, either that or he rates arthur ellis!!

Pete,

Maybe it might make you feel a little better to know that Irish have signed All Black Bryn Evans?

We'll have lots of lined up for you Pete for when you finish work!

That sounds like a continuity statement too far.
