When I was younger I used to get Migraines fairly regularly, once every few months. As I've got older the frequency has decreased but I still get them sometimes. Had one last Monday, last one I had before that was December 2009. Before that it had been about 3 or 4 years and I thought I might have grown out of them. I don't just get a headache like, it's fucking horrible. First I get what's apparently called an aura, which is basically me going blind and being able to see nothing but zebra stripes. It moves across my vision and eventually clears up, at which point I get the mother of all headaches; it's like someone stabbing you in the frontal lobe with a metal fence post. Along with that I get bad nausea, which if I've had nowt to eat beforehand involves me howking up bile, it's absolutely fucking rank. My body will basically make me sick regardless of how much I try and fight it. The whole thing normally lasts for about 6 hours, during which I have no option but to find a dark room and just try and sleep it off. It never works though, it's like being in a trance for the whole episode. It takes about 3 days to recover from and all, it's amazing how drained I get afterwards. My heart is always fucked for a week afterwards aswell, if I try and resume normal life like the gym and that too quickly, I get palpatations and anxiety attacks and shit. I've never been able to find out what triggers them. When I was younger I went to the doctors to see what the craic was, but they've never known what to tell me. Even though they've become less frequent I'd say they're definitely a lot more powerful than they used to be. Might see if I can get checked again but there's little they can do when I'm not having one apparently. Still, people are dying and all that, so it could be worse!

Pinched from elsewhere but this seems an appropriate place for it.

I can't wait man! Don't get the set times till we get there on Thursday night, so there'll be a canny bit of last minute decision making, I think.

Already said it in the gigs thread, but Coachella next month.. Was a bit miffed about the KoL but at least I'll be able to find something else. Plenty to choose from!

I don't consider that advert the best one.

A naa that man, yer big pissheed! Bilson still got my vote as it happens. I think that's who I voted for the last time, which was years ago. Bilson is bang tidy tbf. You've always had taste in spite of all the odds, argos bling, Elvis sideburns etc. Whey that's as close to a compliment as I'll get off you, you lanky streak! EDIT: Bling and sideburns have gone by the way, just in case anyone is busy painting a mental picture of that radge lad who won the lottery.

Fucking love her like. A fine choice indeed.

Nah, but if you write to him..

Absolutely. Up until last year, there was on old couple used to sit in front of me. If I ever got animated I used to try and keep the swearing down a bit, as on the odd occasion I went too far I'd normally get a clip off the old woman. Anyway, in that game a couple of seasons ago when Martins picked that bird up and took it off the pitch, she spins round, casual as fuck, and announces loudly: 'That's brilliant, isn't it? He's picked that skill up from years of having to chase his dinner about in the sand.' Everyone around us chuckled, possibly in disbelief. Then nothing else was said. Not sure what the reaction would have been if that had been a young lad after a few pints that had said that, mind.

Going to Coachella next month, so a pick of this lot:- Hope there's something good on elsewhere while the Kings of Leon are ruining things.

Jimbo's braless bird update..

Tounge is clearly hanging out of the mouth of that smiley, tbh.

Sweetleftpeg. That's it.

All will have been mentioned anyway, but my personal gripes.. What NJS has just said. People who don't indicate. Especially at roundabouts, and if it's when they're pulling out of a parking space on a main road. People who drive stupidly fast in a 30 but equally people who drive stupidly fucking slow when they really should get thier foot down. People who tailgate but then refuse to overtake when it is perfectly safe and legal to do so and carry on drving up your arse. Pricks.

Aye, they always feature highly! When I looked at the page count of the thread there I thought there might have been some healthy debate (see perving) regarding females. Instead it's all about your penis.

By the way, have either of these two been discussed yet? Two of my old favourites tbh..

Nee bother! I might have a couple on the PC at home like, I'll have a look when I get in later.

Fuck off.

The Geordie lad in Green Street trying to be a cockney. Terrible.

Strikes me as the kind of person who gets confused about where the ringings coming from when someone phones him.

This looks mental. Especially the thumbs up.

I rang him once when I was mortal. Won a signed CD. Didn't realise he meant signed by him instead of the band like!
