Comment on Pouting fish sales a success at Tesco by james lewis

I recently bought Pouting from tesco because it was cheap in their “reduced section”.
Wow, what a lovely fish. Opening the bag it smelt like it was just caught and filleted..
Dipped in Flour with Salt and Pepper then Pan fried. Just brilliant.

Just as good as Cod, I will be buying more.

Comment on India complete 5-0 series whitewash over England by avery

How short one’s memory is! India tied one one-day game and one more was washed out that they probably would have gone on to win. The three other one-dayers were truncated and rain favoured england through duckworth-lewis. Never once did India get to bat second, and the story would’ve been different had they.

Comment on Protest marches held over cuts and tuition fees by annoyed

I’m a pensioner who has just done the first year of a degree course with the Open College of the Arts; something I’ve longed to do all my life. That money is now wasted- just thrown away because I’ve had to pull out with the new increased tuition fees. (You pay year by year) I can’t get a loan as an adult learner and on a fixed income simply can’t afford to pay even if I could get a bursary for part of it. I’m still subsidising for my son to finish his Masters and trying to set him up in a flat for his first job. His student loan is already up to £26000 with the interest over 4 years. He will earn enough to start paying it off but that won’t then leave him enough for rent and living costs let alone buying furniture because he’s spent what savings he had on his Masters. Only the rich will be able to go to University.

Comment on Gas and electricity prices increased by Npower by CompareGasAndElectricity

These are disappointing price increases. These additional energy costs are making a difficult situation even worse. The frail economy is already making life difficult on many people, and this just adds to the challenges being faced. In order to reduce the impact of this increase, try to reduce energy usage and make your home more energy efficient. Turn off lights and appliances before leaving your home or going to bed. Switch to energy-efficient light bulbs. Cut your hot shower time down a little. Use the sun to dry your clothes instead of that expensive dryer. There are lots of ways to save on energy and to help out the planet if you take proactive measures.

Comment on Auckland Surprised by Earthquake by steve

GNS shows the epicentre to be within the Aucland Volcanic Field and 9km beneath Mission Bay . Therefore plenty of relevance for the good citizens of cental Auckland. And what sheer irony if the capital of World Cup Rugby 2011 is to have its very own swarm of seismic and/or volcanic events.

It’s about time! People with these old dinosaur browsers need some incentive to move on.

Comment on Twitter taken to court by South Tyneside Council by Carl Barron

Strange how one sided and biased (so-called) English Law can be.

If you buy online from the USA and goods do not arrive yet your account has more than double the said price extracted: Plus no goods arrive. English Legal Systems via Trading Standards state it is outside of our Legal Jurisdiction. So how can they enforce an order just because it offends some Councilors, yet Joe Public can go to hell?

It seems a very biased one-sided and unfair approach do you not agree?

However I must state that people who wish to comment, should have to give their real names and not alias names.
