The mackems were also great at raping and pillaging to be fair but fucking shite at Luton.

'cmon say something stupid so I can block you.' Time to come off twitter, Luke. No, honestly.

And spin on their knobs?

The wife had a seizure in her thirties and it seemed like a one off till she had two more within a few months about five years later. It was epilepsy and she was put on medication and no more seizures until a couple of years later when she had another which everyone seems to put down to being tired, ill and run down which fits in with the rest as well as stress. She's on kepra tablets. When my youngest daughter was around 6-7 we discovered she had childhood absence epilepsy which apparently is now gone after a few years medication and she's grew out of it but they did say one of us probably had epilepsy but at this time the missus hadn't had any seizures. She's generally fine so three episodes in ten years minus meds and one with. Hoping there'll be no more but at least we know what it is and what to do which we didn't originally. (I thought she having a stroke then thought she was dying as she seemed to stop breathing on the first. It was very traumatic for my kids who were young).

Alreet, Herr Gemmill.

It's gone quiet on here all of sudden? Oh, it's just after five and all the bean counters have fucked off home from their comfy chairs in their comfy offices sitting in front of their computers after logging off from TT and getting a quick drink from the watercooler. IS THIS YOU, FISH?!

Wtf are you going on about, Daveed? I knew a lot about it as I was being put on the dole and wanted to know why and find out if their excuses were bullshit? (They were).

If someone calls me out for supporting Newcastle United on the basis our owners are cunts then I can call them what I like.

"......And when you're done with the old folks horticultural needs I have some needs of my own I'd like you to attend to, Ted."

No, I just worked at the Tyne brewery for a few years.

They shifted to tadcaster as it was a way of saving money and selling prime land near the city centre, they didn't care less for the heritage or the protected geographic status, Heineken took over but it had already closed the Tyne brewery by then. Last I heard they were brewing in Holland, in tadcaster and were letting it be brewed in the US for their market there.

They ditched Newcastle. Fuck'em.

Always did our checks as well as running manufacturing. #multiTasking #blooter #OilersArms #ElectriciansArms #NeeDeadSoldiers

I've did handovers with blokes that could barely speak.

Probably a combination of all of this. I mean, isn't that what forums are for?

There was usually two of them. I wasn't one but I know a couple of lads that moved down there, think their depot was near Washington iirc?

He was probably more sad than actually deeply unpleasant, desperately wanted attention masked as 'debate'. (Might be wrong but that's the impression I got. He was definitely tiresome).

Lad at work sometimes calls me and others young'un and he's a bit of a knob. It's even funnier/tragic that I'm older than him.

They weren't officially entitled to a drink but no self-respecting pub landlord would not offer a drink and no self-respecting drayman would refuse such a kind offer so I believe? Loads would have at least one bottle or a cup during a shift, especially if you weren't driving. (After my first shift, getting changed in the locker room a couple of the old sweats asked if I liked broon ale? I said I could have the odd drop they then opened up a locker with a bottle in it and told me I could have it but not to leave 'a dead soldier'*. I thought briefly, is this a trap and I'm sacked on the first day or more likely a test of trust, I quickly decided it was the latter and necked the bottle and about ten years later at a leaving drink when it shut one of those old sweats who was there, who was basically the Geordie 'Columbo' said, 'We knew you were alreet on your first day when you had that bottle, Davey son' (He didn't say 'one more thing' which was a shame). *Dead bottle = leaving an empty or part empty bottle instead of getting rid of the evidence.

Spenny play in black and white stripes. Maggie bastards. ©

A job at the brewery. When doing an hourly QA tests it was compulsory to have a taste.

That Tyne and Wear derby v Gateshead is going to be tasty, mini Mags getting battered left, right and centre by MLFs. FTM.

I used to drink it pretty regularly but I was at work and it was gratis. Once I left the thought of paying for it just didn't sit right with me and I didn't usually drink it out of work.

Pep is king as is Klopp. Chelsea's Tuchel is revered but Howe is simply not in their league so is easy meat. I would say that Howe would be fucking lauded to the hilt if he was doing shit and our fans weren't impressed with his performances but I fucking love the ignoring of the money abramovich spunked on Chelsea or the tetchy Guardiola getting a free ride. There absolutely is regional prejudice at play and it isn't limited to football, it fucking stinks and needs called out far more vigorously as it goes totally under the radar anywhere else in the country.
