Haha! Heard that one before, reminds me of the time Barclaycard rang me up asking if I'd like a credit card. Less than a year after I'd paid a debt off that they turned me over to an agency for.
I had loss of income insurance on my card, and I'd been paying for it, and they didn't deliver basically. As soon as I did lose my income they kept sending me redundency forms, and I kept telling them the forms don't have questions suited to my circumstances as I have not been made redundant, so the basts sent me the same bloody thing again 3 more times. I suppose they must've just got sick of me phoning up and complaining and turned me over. Took me 7 bloody years to pay that card off, then the cheeky basts phoned me up and asked if I'd like a new card.
I saw red and bellowed down the phone at them much in the style of this nutter :D
You're lucky. When your real name is John Smith (my parents wanted another girl) you are pretty much f*cked from day one! I get loads of sh*t all the time. And try convincing the police who you are on bad / good night out. Or hotels - that's a good one! Airports - avoid!
If I'd have taken on my Stepdads name (which I refused to do point blank), I'd have had the same name as somebody who was very important in the 20th Century (But it was the perfect ruse to not take on the fat bastards name without offending him or my mother).
He wanted to adopt me as well, I said to my ma do I have a choice, she said yes, I said No!
Kept my dads name though? He's even more worthless than my stepdad was. I may just change my real name to dm_boozefreek :lol:
That way if I have kids their sirname would be boozefreek :lol:
But basically Britain's Got Talent contestant 10-year-old Hollie Steel is told she can't continue her act (which she had to stop because she starts crying), because there's no time left - and she breaks down again.
Is that the wee lass from up near Darwen or Accy or somewhere up there???
No idea. I don't watch these types of TV things, I just caught it on the news and thought it was horrible for Dec and Ant et al to destroy this little girl live on TV. If only for a minute or two.
Okay, there's worse things happening - but I get the feeling the producers, or whomever where just after something and bollocked it up. Expect a big backlash about this! (Not from me!)
I don't watch it either TBH, lowest common denominator TV in my opinion. I hate these talent/big brother/reality shows.
But sometimes I get saddled with it if I sit down to my tea at the wrong time.
If I remember rightly that young lass is from Lancashire, so she'll probably just have hotpot and crack right back on with it - we're like that up 'ere see!

LOL!
I WAS born in Lancashire, but now I WAS born in Cheshire!
Eh?
They moved the county boundry lines a few years after my birth!
I'm midway between Liverpool and Manchester at the moment, and have lived in both, but spent many years in and around the Blackpool area.

Sorry i dont feel sorry for her, if she wasnt 10 years old Simon would have slated them for not being able to perform live. Hes always slated singers who cant sing live and forget their words/panic etc.
All because shes some cute (spoilt) little girl i wouldnt have put her through. When Ant (or Dec) said to her theres not enough time, cue tears ! She sounded like a spoilt girl and only turned off the waterworks when they said she could perform.
Dont mean to be cruel but if she cant handle it she shouldnt enter, anyone else over 18 wouldnt have got another chance to perform
I'm not a huge fan of these shows but i dont mind watching it if its on.
Yeah! You're right! Little f*ching sh*ts! F*ck 'em all!
LOL!
I see your point.
EDIT - the first line IS a joke, by the way!
I just think they should have cut to an AD break - it's live and everyone is geared up towards doing this. I just think they could have handled it better instead of creaming it.
Yes, she's spoiled. And that's her parents fault. And she's too young to be in a situation like this.

Rock Anthems! Say your tune! The butchy music you blast when you go out at the weekend.
I said "Lovin' You" by Minnie Riperton.
And they played it! The only tune they played!
EDIT - they've just edited the show with snap shots - and I'm on again! LOL!
It's a good job I'm recording all this!
Making the unplayable, playable. Or something.
Like sh*t!
They take stuff down after a few days, unfortunately (with the exception of a few of the more-popular programmes).
It's seven days. And I've been counting!
But I'm crap at math. (s)
I'm just joking! LOL!
I'm a little in anoyments that 'they' post links to stuff no longer available.
I guess it's automatic. Or done by someone without a brain.
Search for "iPlayer Grabber".
Strange. 'cos in the UK everyone is w*nking themselves silly over the US stuff! I don't see it all myself, but then I'm really weird! LOL!
I love everyone.
But I'm fully loaded! So duck down!
Well I guess that makes me weird too then. Maybe it's because I'm home sick? :cry:
I'd much rather be where you are right now, than where I am!
And I like the Stan Laurel quote!
Sometimes. Just sometimes. I give up.

But I suppose that Lancashire was all part of old Cheshire anyway.
