That's probably the most accurate description of him I've ever heard. I've got a photo of him somewhere wearing those sunglasses with a shiny, sunburned heed.

The bairn just rang me. Oh man, to have that joy again without yet having experienced the disappointment. Magic stuff.

Wonder if it's in Defoe's list of demands that his PA has to wank him off after each goal he scores. Dick.

Bloody hell, he'll be hyper CT - he's 6. We took him to Harper's testimonial but he was a bit too young really and got bored. He's properly into it now, knows the rules and can reel off the entire Premiership scores at the end of each weekend. Just had a message from him dad to say he's loving it.

The bairn's first proper match. Fingers crossed for some kind of positives.

Topic title edited btw. Just to keep topic titles slightly respectable.

Oops

Sat drinking G&T on a roof terrace in a little village in southern Spain after an evening of tapas, wine and music. Bairn is sleeping, my dad is hilariously merry and all is well

Not at all! My mam and dad get loads in their garden and they're in bloody Washington - they're everywhere! Good to see that your family take the piss as much as we do CT - that was class

That sounds lush and at that price even more so. Enjoy

I haven't seen him since last Thursday man, it would be really fucking harsh for him to come home today to be met with the news that mam is swanning off to Spain for a week without him Even my dad is coming with us - god forbid we should head off to the sunshine without the local sun-worshipping black man.

Just watching the immediate aftermath of a bomb that has gone off in the middle of Bangkok in the last couple of hours. Grim

I didn't say I was taking him with me, just that I hadn't told him about it

Going to the south of Spain in the morning. Haven't told the bairn yet...

How is this thread 7 pages long?!

No you bloody weren't. Wouldn't set foot in that pretentious shithole (We were in the Vineyard)

Ohhhhhh you're hilarious!

Oh, and I did watch the entire last season of The Flash. Had to record it for the bairn each week.

This, definitely. I do, however, have a huge knowledge of Marvel, Transformers, Spinjitzu and other random boy stuff than I've ever had before. Not sure I could tolerate the girly shite they churn out these days, so I feel quite lucky to have a boy.

The Riverside and the Havelock were my underage drinking establishments locally, followed by 6th form parties at the Ritzy where we would go to Dobsons beforehand for trebles of some meths & diet coke for about a quid. Drinks of choice would be Taboo & lemonade, Malibu & coke, Pernod & black, cider & black, Castaway, Hooch and Diamond White. Not all in the same glass.

Incorrigible

As if his mouth is that big

The role of 'possibly providing little bit more light than the streetlights are already providing' As a self-confessed space/meteorology geek, who has been unable to see the meteor shower for the last 2 nights due to the CLOUD, I'm suitably admonished.
