A good idea, which probably needs to be extended. With this one you could throw the whole lot of Icelandic references in, such as they are - maybe an extended rant based on that Norwegian football commentator and that bloke with the biscuits who bought West Ham. E.g:</p> <p>Added Osbourne: "Leif Eriksson. That Tottenham striker who used to play for Chelsea. The rest of the Sugarcubes. Erik the Red. Bjork. That bloke who owned West Ham. Can you hear me, that bloke who used to own West Ham? Your boys took a hell of beating." </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=4622#post-13039 Tue, 18 May 2010 09:29:44 +0000 The Orgazoid 13039@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Any useful tips welcomed. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=4622#post-12962 Mon, 17 May 2010 16:51:36 +0000 The Orgazoid 12962@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>First post on here.

These funds would be instrumental in lowering the budget deficit inherited from the previous Government.</p> <p>Addressing a selection of press and military figures, Osbourne announced the 'imminent and moral' invasion. "This Coalition will not stand-by and let these chaps laugh at us, at the expense of the tax-payer. War is the last resort but we need to sort out this commie debt yard and fast. Besides, I'm sure we could sort out this volcano business while we're there"</p> <p>Critics have been quick to slam the plans, drawing parallels with the Argentine Falkland invasion of the early 80's. Osbourne, however, was quick to dismiss rumours that the invasion was merely a distraction from the fact that he couldn't find the promised £6bn efficiency savings without endangering the health of economy.</p> <p>A spokesman for the Royal Forces expressed enthusiasm for the project but warned that the conflict would require a 'few bill extra' to the budget. </p>
