I meant it's always a small minority that choose to ruin it for everyone else. Yeah, it was O' level, Oxford and Cambridge board, right?
Spot on Brucie - and to add to it my English Teacher fit! and yes she was a woman :)

Come on Ajay...give us a run down on your day...how was it...cheers us all up in a rainy Manchester.
Let me guess... you nailed a massive IT contract this morning, followed by a work out in the gym, then a light lunch and stroll on the beach?
Sadly my day was not that good, I still have man flu so the gym has been no go for the last couple of days, but if you really want a roundup here goes:
I wake at 5:30am - wash and say my morning prays.
Normally I manage to have my breakfast in the garden (although last few days have been cold 12-16 degrees) while reading either the Gulf News or 7 Days Newspaper.
I leave for work at around 7:30am and within 20 minutes am normally sat at my desk with a cup of coffee checking my emails and post.
My PA normally gets in along with everyone else at around 9:00am (and don't get excited - having a PA here is no big thing) - but damn she is a very cute Filipina girl :)
Today was a series of long and boring internal meetings centered around refocusing our 2009 sales/operational strategies to overcome the downturn in business in the region and world.
Lunch was a sad affair of a Subway Spicy Italian on Brown with Chipolata Sauce.
Afternoon was many more meetings and I got home at around 6:30am after going to see a car I am planning to buy my daughter as a surprise for having passed her driving test last week.
Dinner was with friends at my local Lebanese cafe, a mixed grill with Humous and hot bread followed with a pot of sweet mint tea.
And then home - watched Coronation Street (can't take the Manc our of me) and onto my beloved Bluemoon.
There you are - its a good life, its tough (the grass is not always greener on the other side) but I moved here for the sake of my children and can honestly say I have never looked back apart from missing sitting in COMS watching a live game - that is the only thing I miss!
Cheers
