Talking of, well nothing in particular, have you seen the uproar associated with the young lady who has had her breasts enlarged on the NHS. Her mirror is mounted far too low on her wall.....
That is one Rhinocerpig 
although I suspect George would 
Looks like the surgeon also went mad with fake hair/eyebrows as well
Meh, I've MOT'd worse.
Although she did have them done on the NHS, it appears someone has created a Facebook account in her name, pretending to be her and bragging about having them done. Quite a lot of hate directed at the page, and it isn't actually her.
Some people have way too much time on their hands, and others get wound up about stuff they shouldn't... well, give a stuff about.

I understand why people get so upset. This person gave an interview in the national press stating they had misled their GP by crying and pretending to have suffered abuse from being flat chested, following which we the taxpayers paid 4k or whatever the figure was for a boob job. She is now laughing about it and suggesting she will use her new boobs to earn moneyAlthough she did have them done on the NHS, it appears someone has created a Facebook account in her name, pretending to be her and bragging about having them done.

At a time when there is genuine fuel poverty for many of the elderly in this country, I too get upset with all the money I earn & pay in tax that's thrown at totally undeserving causes like this rather than the genuinely important things
Apologies, serious rant over now !!!

Talking of drills, My sons oil rig is due in for maintenance over the weekend and I plan to photograph it arriving in the river tees. Well I say my sons, what I really mean is the one he works on of course.
Apparently they are not covered by a three year warranty and known issues can lead to quite nasty repercussions if not handled properly. Up to now he has not experienced any oil leaks, although they are still expensive to run at over £250,000 per day, whether you use it or not.
The main challenge of course is hoping it doesn't get knicked while near Middlesbrough and sold for scrap or parts.

Out of interest did you get it to pump oil?

'Oil rigs' don't pump oil, they drill for it. Production platforms 'pump' oil...or more accurately redirect the oil that flows under pressure from below. If you want to know more about progressive cavity pumps and electrical submersible pumps for when the oil doesn't want to flow, I can be found in the Dog and Duck any day except Wednesdays
250k per day? Nice, we are running a drillship that costs in excess of 2 million dollars per day. It's not even >that< good
