Got a match-worn David Batty top in the hoose somewhere (adidas one with the shield on the back, the one after the Grandad collar).

If whitewater rafting isn't a euphemism already, it should be.

Yee think the Singleton of Dufftown is the mutt's nuts so your opinion is null and void

As you do

Mmm...

Aye, that's what I meant to write. Any idea if it was true? Seems a bit frustrating if so.

Reminds me of a kid at school (who somehow knew about these things way, way pre-internet) who reckoned 'King Kong' (RIP iirc) would sometimes faint when he got a hard-on because of all the blood rushing to his cock.

We keep meaning to go as it happens but with having the bin lid now it's a bit of a pain. I've been for lunch before and it was spot on and everyone says it's nice. I see they've got a licence now but you can still take your own bottle.

I remember being in a tapas bar in Barcelona. Later in the evening I ordered a coffee and a brandy. I asked for Soberano but the kid in there said, "No, try this, it's Catalan". He just about filled the balloon glass with it then topped up the coffee with a hefty shot too. The £4 for one sixth of a gill (or whatever it is now) over here kind of removes that Mediterranean ambience for me La Tasca's ok like. Not 9/10 though imo.

Was more of a general rant about footballers anyway. I think money'll be important though because it'll be the thing motivating his agent about whether or not to advise Carroll to move or not. I could definitely see him wanting to come home like.

So's Gateshead. Not that I imagine any of them live in Liverpool. Has he been burgled yet btw?

Every fucking feckless student in the land manages it like. I know you're possibly right but fuck me, you'd think he was 14 (assuming he is homesick). The cosseted existence of these footballers man :lol: He's living the dream ffs.

Final straw

I think it was mentioned on here but that young kid (hurdler iirc) who was meant to carry the flame but allegedly failed a last minute security check (despite not having a criminal record) in order to make way for some corporate bloke (some bigwig from Next or something) summed the whole thing up. I like the Olympics as well, especially the athletics but I'm actually glad we're largely out of it in the North East. Nee doubt I'll have something to vent me spleen about after I've been to the footy at SJP though.

Or NUST.

I have a similar equation involving me and other people's opinions.

Jeff's face btw :lol:

Tell you what's well nice btw, Sainsbury's do a Taste the Difference 8 year old Single Irish Malt for about £20. In fact, all their taste the difference range of booze is nice / good value, especially the spirits. Their Islay Malt is lush and not bad at all for around £20 also. You'd pay at least a £10 more for any other 12 y.o. Islay Single Malt. I think it might be a Caol Ila.

I've spied the Paps of Jura, from the southern shores of Mull.

He was to Ashley

And they all do a shit pint of 'Guinness'. I wouldn't normally go in one but Italy doesn't really do bars in the way places like Spain does and it was late and I wanted a drink. The patter was fucking lifting in there though. Remember Scruffy Murphy's btw? With ye olde maps of Eire on the wall that were in fact tea-stained, singed versions of ones you'd get free after 10 visits to a Little Chef

Going to have a pop at my own chilli vodka as I've got a chilli plant with loads of chillies on it atm. Hopefully it'll turn out as well as 2J's Skittles-flavoured effort.
