YouTube- Chartered Accountant by Monty Python.mp4

John Cleese visited his accountant the week after that was broadcast and asked the accountant if he had minded the sketch, he looked blank and asked why he should have. Because it poked fun at accountants, explained Cleese. "Oh no," smiled the accountant, "you see, the man in the sketch was a Chartered accountant, and I'm Certified."

Certified accountants are cunts tho*

*Chartered fuh' life blud!

Alberto Contador, the Accountant who forgot to eat.

adoubletap, the Accountant who has never knowingly ever forgotten to eat

:(

I have never knowingly purchased any product produced by or on behalf of the late Linda McCartney, her ghastly husband nor his second wife.

I do, however, buy products of the evil Murdoch.

Just so as you know.

Why? why is he boring? because of his explosive accelerations, and aggressive, attacking riding? because of his graceful style on the bike and superb time-trialling ability? Or is it perhaps the way he dances up mountains leaving others struggling in his wake?

I think what you mean is : he's so much better than everyone else right now ( whether this is natural or enhanced time will tell), that he doesn't always have to race too hard; this year one devastating mountain attack and a cancellara-beating TT were enough to secure him the Tour.

but don't, for gods sake say he's boring - it's just not the case. I think he's a fantastically great rider.

+1. In the last tour Contador was far more exciting to me than Lance Armstrong. His mountain attack was superb.

His mountain attack was superb.

I agree, but how much of that excitement was brought on because it was against his own team mate, and that team mate was Lance?

The stage up Ventoux was thrilling and there he was riding in support of Armstrong.

No one has mentioned the Schleck brothers.

Alberto Contador: peckish cruncher of data.

No one has mentioned the Schleck brothers.

Look, just because someone makes payments for coaching he never actually received, there's no reason to cast aspersions. Even though you or I might have asked for a refund.

As the Luxembourgian anti-doping agency didn't* open a case against him he must be clean.

His statement could not be any more clear on these matters

*couldn't afford to

Brilliant pic of Wiggo in the Guardian Sport section today - he looks like Paul Weller!! satin jacket, Tootal Paisley scarf, and fancy shoes!!

Weller's his hero, innit? Great cyclist, terrible taste in music... :S

Just saw the legend himself on Brewer St

Wiggins or Weller?

Wiggo is up in town today for a lunch. Mrs Wiggo is at home in Manc and twittering like it was going out of fashion, which, in a way, I suppose it is.

Was he walking his bike? :P

If a fifty something lawyer thinks Twitter is going out of fashion then it must be true!

Wiggo, although it could have been either

andy, I'm a finger on the pulse sort of chap, don't you know?

Live updates offering the location of Wiggins and his wife is a bit creepy.

Clive only consumes 'superfoods' bought from Waitrose

Haha.

To be fair, I thought they were the same person. WiganWiggins.

No, it's Cath Wiggins who comes from Wigan along with WiganWill. Wiggo was born in Ghent but brought up in London's famous London. Cath Wiggins and Wiggo now live in Manchester while WiganWill lives in London. Hope that's clear now.

WiganWill is from Wigan!?! I thought he was from Surry.

You're confusing him with KingstonWill not to be confused with JamaicanWill

He's really canadian.
