You dirty old man.

Shiftwork and a lack of interest in the Olympics.

Anyway, bought her a necklace and a card as other valentine days haven't went down too well.

Do you reckon anyones ever said, "Cheik, mate" to him?

?????? Never watched it but I have heard of some of the competitors such as Ellis, Wiggins and Bolt. Never heard of the lad who's just killed his girlfriend though. (By the way, 140 guests?)

Hands up those who had heard of him before this. I hadn't.

Aye, it's just on the border, Andy, you can't miss it.

Playing away or leaving him and he couldn't take it I'd guess, although she may well have had a new black & white hooped jumper on and he did indeed think she was a burgler.

I got the little woman in my life a box of chocolates and a 12" vibrator. If she doesn't like the chocolates she can gan fuck herself.

No, these are some nice spins......(Check out J69 in the red waist coat by the way), Salako was gutted to be honest.

Looks like he's realised and changed the text, mate.

Nah, our interest definitely cooled off when Daveed became a possibility and I think the player just tried to put a brave face on it.

Other way round. NUFC spotted an 'injury concern' at his medical which coincided with us getting the nod we could get Ginola in the same position as Salako.

Pretty sure this was it.... You got two paddles to move your 'sticks' up and down for pong and football pong plus there was a game on it where you'd shoot at a moving target which was a small square dot that moved round your screen like a screen saver might on a DVD player. Like I said, I never did get the gun that went with it.

I've only been in there a few times. One of the times I missed was a do where one our group, (who wasn't normally part of our group and was a dick), thought it was a good idea to chuck a pint glass over the balcony a la 'Begbie', (this was before Trainspotting so he never got the idea from that film/book), they had to get out the club and fast and avoid random digs from outraged punters. Another time was where my mates Dads best mate got married to a lass half his age, the bloke in question was a waster and an alcoholic, the lass in question was very overweight and not very confident. The Brides Father was mortal and his speech ended a bit like this...."Well Ken is now the third son-in-law I've got" he scowled before adding, "......And there's nen of them worth a fucking light" which didn't go down well with scuffles breaking out and people being held back from getting stuck into it.

I thought J69 was teetotal? Why a 'shandy drinking Puff' would want to call people Gay is indeed a mystery to be fair, mind. FAO J69 - - >

My Dad got a cheap deal on something like that from currys but it didn't include the gun. I kept on asking when the shop would get the gun in the shop but my dad would fob me off as the poor bastard probably skinted himself just getting a cheap deal as he was having a time of it what with Maggie's mob hating the working man back then.

There was times I thought it would kick off in Shields Road too as it happens and it was also rough as a badgers arse, mind. Still, it was a change I suppose. Even the club I sometimes get into in Walker has just shut down and me and the missus haven't had a 'local' we both could enjoy since the Colliery was pulled down in Walkergate 12 years ago.

Well that's how this thread works, isn't it JawD? "Yeeees darling, I work two hours at the gym, fast for two days don't you know, eat pulses and lentils before having a colonic irrigation and use the 'believefuckingowt' app on my iphone and IT WORKS FOR ME, Sugartits, aaaaand I live a perfectly normal life. (apart from the supplement side affects of course)." Just saying if you take a long term view* and cut some shit out, live a bit more moderately, have a bit of exercise, (even a good long walk regularly if you're over weight will help) then you can't help lose some pounds and don't freak out if you put a little weight on a special occasion or weekend bender and go back to your old ways and give up. Some people who are fat might just get put off by the gym patter or the extreme diets/foods. It should be a long term thing to live a bit better, a bit more healthy and you'll shift the fat over time anyway as a bonus. *I know, this is the part where CT will probably be fucked as he moves on to something new every few weeks

My crowd would drink in Walkergate as young lads as our local but would obviously head over to town most saturdays. Sometimes on a friday or sunday night we'd spend an hour or two either heading up to Shields Road before coming back for last orders or popping down to Wallsend before making the return journey to Walkergate. Wallsend used to be fucking heaving and was very popular but for me I never felt as comfortable there as I did Shields Road out of the two. I swear the Queens Head jukebox would stop when our mob walked in! The pub and bar scene has been decimated these last 10-15 years.

Sorry mate, juve not convinced me I'm afraid.

You'll have to supply your own vaseline though.

Sorry to hear about Fish's loss by the way. And good luck to Jill.

Totally by (half) accident it seems I've acquired an extra item I recently purchased. It cost £700 and without going into details I've had a second item delivered, no signing for anything as the the signing machine was broken. Think I'll leave it unopened in passage for a few weeks to see if they twig. If not.......well nice little bogof deal I wasn't expecting.

Good idea, mate.
