Double negative - so unless you mean it does make sense - you got your statement wrong.

If what you said is correct, can you PLEASE explain it to me (and many others).

(Alex, can we have a "tongue in cheek" smiley please, or Toots might kill me, or charge so many "wobblies" I may go bust.)


You are quite right it is grammatically incorrect, it was meant to be. When I get confused as a 2 year old in ToysRus I will express myself as confused child, hence the double negative e.g I never done nothing wrong. BTW the next wobbly is on you :wink:

Hurry up Alex - she reckons I owe her 1 wobbly - and I think it could be the first of many.

By all accounts according to the LC financial reports you can't afford to buy any more than one, if indeed you can afford the first one anyway :lol:

A while ago the chap from Delta mentioned how many jobs his firm did, and I think we worked out that it didn't seem that many compared to the number of vehicles/drivers on their circuit.

So we now know where IBIS got their £120 a week takings from. :sad:

This thing dont add up at all, there is no way this industry has lost nearly 1 billion quid in under 10 years, irrespective of the recession.

If this consultation has any credence at all the LC should reproduce their source in full; otherwise we are all messing about in the dark.

You make a good point, and if a document is quoted in a report that will change our futures, then it really should be available to us all, to read and critique in full.

surely the LC aint so niave to merely go to a dot com website and get figures that way? And if they're on about figures then surely for something that affects us all they should give us the courtesy of an explanation of the relevance?
