    I'd like my own column. I've always wanted my own column where I could spew forth on whatever it was that took my fancy.

    I'd rather the gap weren't filled, and the whole industry died a natural death.
    Wishful thinking. :)

    Sorry, intimate relations between staff will not be tolerated as tensions in the office can be exacerbated when you have someone sitting to the left of a right-hander in the daisy chain.

    I had training yesterday to be a counseller for kids, so I think I can use those skills for a 'Dear Deirdre' type page.

    A bit disturbing that tom.

    I can see the force is strong in you but you may need a sensei to show you how to channel that energy.Im going to put you down as an intern under kfallon.Perhaps you will pick up on his subtle yet effective ways.

    Excellent I need a personal assistant.I think youll be perfect miss.

    You are a lady arent you? I have to ask before I offer you the job formally.Equal opportunities and all that.

    Oh and Im afraid new legislation requires you to PM me pictures so that I can make a fair decision.

    We can work on the Dublin voice thing if youre successful:)

    Small steps scotty.First we'll have to educate you on the use of capital letters.

    I think you missed a comma after proofread.:(

    Dont take it as criticism,its a learning process that some us pick up at the age of 11.It just takes a bit longer for some.

    Stick by my side and I'll keep you right.

    Oh and proofreading whilst half monkeyed at two in the morning may be an issue.I see something in you,something you dont see yourself,but I demand dedication and professionalism with a sprinkling of arseholery,so jump on board and enjoy the ride.

    I will handle all the weird news stories seeing as that's what the threads I start are generally about anyway. Oh and I can get a page worth of xxx chatlines to sign up also. Pics or gtfo basically.

    Thats a negative admiral.We need to seemlessly slip into the gap in the market without repulsing the old NOTW regulars.

    Polygamy - everybody should have multiple partners.
    Fetishes - do everything that pleases you except for extreme acts that are against the law like bestiality.
    Bdsm - get tied up, take your trashings and humiliation and enjoy.


    Well I was hoping to go a tad more highbrow than the previous occupants.

    Yeah sounds great.....Ill take that on board.

    Could we not start off with vajazzling and gentle spanking before shooting to the Michael Hutchence end of the horny spectrum?:)
