Total skag head. Have it on good authority too.

Aye, not for a while though. Deserves some recognition. Well done alex. Still an ambition of mine. That and climbing Kilimanjaro.

Anyone done a shite that hits the water before its left your arse?

Heard some of the new stuff at the Barbican gig a couple of weeks ago. Class. Have to say this is one of those artists that is so much better live than on record. Horn section during Jacksonville will live long in the memory.

Not seen it nor do i give a shit but why would you expct the jokes to be different? If the character is 'written' then so are the jokes. You expect him just to make improvised sponataneous jokes all the time or to perform a 'written' character. Every comedian writes material and then performs it. To highlight that is just being perjorative tbh.

Occasional cock ring

Nearly full marks, it came out as the B-side to Holiday in Cambodia but then was on the compilation 'Give me convenience of give me death'. However, i bow down in humblest respect.

Who did Police Truck? What album was it off?

Reminds me of growing up in Whitley that does.

Are the The Geordie Latinos fronted by Julio Geordio?

A good mint sauce with very rare lamb is hard to beat.

Of course it did, it was merely fortuitous that the girls from Walker that the programme followed through the day had great norks. Why is it meaningless Renton? It has to be based on something...

Just emailed that to my (broody) lass...

Remember when that American artist came over and got everyone to do that 'Naked city' thing?? It was covered on BBC3 and i ended up watching the repeat too and both times i heard the presenter say that 'more art is bought for the home in the north east of england than anywhere else in europe'. I was a little astounded by this but can anyone corroborate that a) I did hear that and b ) whether its true?? It would be a nice comeback to any cultural snobbery....

Just cant get enough - Depeche mode, for no other reason than i was listening to it on the way to work this morning.

Weekends, going out, dinners, special occassions etc, I'd expect my lass to wear something good. Lounging about, relaxing, doing nowt, she could wear Alex's 80"s style odd luminous socks on each tit and a pair of my boxers as far as i am concerned. I did actually buy my lass underwear last weekend...

Nice game 2J.

Funny. Where did you hear him say that?

Just not holding it in front of her face. Actually that depends...

I've not heard what the specific problem is, it's always described in the most vague way possible. Wouldn't surprise me if he's completely fucked it though, by being forced to play on it whilst on steroid injections. Which makes it hard to say they should have done something over the summer. If, for example, he had child dysplasia and this is a deterioration of a long standing problem, i know that this is pretty impossible to predict. I got my orthosurg level 1 badge a few years back.

Either LA Woman or The Doors

Does anyone know the exact nature of the hip problem? 'Hip' problem tell us nothing, it could be a massive number of different aspects of the hip (acetabulum, femoral head, cartilage, ligaments, tendons etc). Some of the problems are not possible to predict without invasive diagnostic tests. Imaging (ultrasound, x-ray) can only reveal certain things. Important to remember it would have been an orthopaedic surgeon who looked at it not Winsper or Roeder.

For London, location is the most important aspect for a stay so i would highly recommend a 'serviced apartment'. You should be able to get a decent place to stay with good facilities in a part of london you want to stay in for less than £100 per night for both people. Just google 'serviced apartments london' and look for the area you want.

What hair?

Might have involved a counterfeited pair. I'm pretty sure the house rules would have allowed the cards to stay in play if they were retrievable, read about a similar case recently. You're right though, probably shouldn't be playing at that level if he's making mistakes like that, or rather he should...what's his number? Its a while since he told me the story but i think he had the hand wrapped up and the other guy called him and he didnt hear him call, thought he had folded, he mucked his cards and then shat himself as the dealer slid his chips away. Apparently the bloke had called 'quietly' when he asnt looking or something.
