  1. Haha for big hand see fat fingers
  2. I've had an iPhone 6 Plus for a while, love it cos I have big hands so I don't miss type all the time and I can read all the text without zooming in. Bit big for some pockets mind
  3. That would have to be west Didsbury for that kind of fare
  4. Yeah I'm the same mate. I appreciate a nice garden and like spending time in them, but I have killed cacti (cactuses?) by not watering them enough in the past. I have the opposite of green fingers, ooh err etc
  5. We have a yard that is used primarily as a place for the dog to lay eggs. If the weather isn't shite at the weekend it's getting pressure washed, a new coat of Sandtex and then leaving for the GF to fill with pot plants that we don't look after and die. If I had a decent garden I would legitimately pay a gardener, fucking boring waste of time.
  6. I live in Didsbury village mate, give me a shout if you need any info. I found an agent that isn't a complete cunt for example. Altrincham, Sale and Cheadle are all fine but a bit out of town if you need to use public transport. I would stay away from Wythenshaw and Swinton personally but it's up to you obv. If you want a village feel Didsbury Village is good, west didsbury is better but more expensive and you could try Chorlton which is a bit tougher round the edges but oddly more expensive because there is a big student population so they charge daft money. All three are on the tram line so getting into town is easy.
  7. You any good as a sparky? We need a few
  8. Live in a leafy suburb of Manchester. When I lived in a shithole near Pontefract I drove a golf GTI that was remapped and lowered etc. The insurance was about 800. Might ring round and speak to some companies and see if I can figure it out.
  9. Fuckers own insurance is about 48 quid a month anarl
  10. The claim was last year but my no claims are protected so I get that I pay a bit extra for that but it still seems high? I had two years driving a company car in the middle of that so didn't have to have my own insurance, reckon it's that?
  11. Why the tits am I paying 1400 as a 31 year old, who passed at 18, with 1 claim (700 quid) and 8 years no claims on a 1.4 Kia? Every time I do a comparison it's nearly 2k..
  12. When people leave his house they have to back out of the front door, maintaining eye contact or they are a coward and never allowed back.
  13. Our lass got me a tour of a local brewery as a birthday present last year. You get to drink loads on the way round and freebies to take home. Loads of little breweries around here now and the majority of the gear isn't more expensive than the mass produced stuff. I love finishing work early and taking the dog to the pub, 2 pints of something strong and a wonky stroll home.

    Rivals

    I grew up in Boro, all my mates are season ticket holders. They have a massive chip on their shoulders about us, desperate for a local rivalry. One in particular tweets lads of tabloid influenced guff about us trying to get a bite. Could not give one fuck about them, they are inconsequential as a Hull or Burnely to me. Gibson is a class chairman though. I hate numerous clubs but I wouldn't call them rivals. Big softspot for Sheff Wed though.
  15. Mongy Dave and his spastic lip?
  16. Players I would like to keep - Krul/Elliot and Woodman as backup, Janmaat, Mbemba, Shelvey, Mitrovic, Perez. Think the first people out the door are Janmaat, Mbemba, Perez, Mitrovic.
  17. When I went there was massive lines of Asian tourist waiting to get in some places. Like an hour wait to get into them. It's also like IKEA in that every time me and our lass go we have a row, 2 for 2 at Bicester. 5000 for 5000 at IKEA.
  18. When people talk about players being cowards. Are they talking about flying into tackles or having the balls to get on the ball and trying to make things happen in a struggling team? Because the first doesn't happen anymore, anywhere. If it's the second Sissoko is not a coward, he has played badly and has lacked quality but has always shown for the ball and made himself available. Cowardly in my mind is playing safe, five yard square balls that the recipient loses but you are blameless because you didn't have the ball, Colback basically.
  19. Missed her name out the title, thought Gemmil had pegged it.
  20. Moved into our new gaff a couple of weeks ago. Been decorating and that, knocked onto our neighbours to say I Was sanding or drilling or whatever a couple of times, met the same bloke each time at one of them. This weekend I answered the door to him introducing his really very attractive girlfriend. That's a nice thing to do and that but I was wearing dust/paint covered overalls, a dust mask and holding kitchen roll soaked in the puppy piss I was mopping up. I must have looked fucking mental, cos I hadn't started working yet.
  21. Stress is a big killer mate, increase and embrace your apathy. It will give you a new outlook on football.
  22. This is the second time you have paid to see Coldplay?!
  23. He gets the same chance as overran but he would injure himself doing it
  24. He can have a chance chasing the cats out of my garden the shit cunt
