  1. Alex Turner's solo EP is really good. Bloke's been listening to John Lennon.
  2. They must have give them the shit songs.
  3. Rains coming down like a thousand diving headbutts round my way.
  4. I'd like to think that was intentional.
  5. I reckon I could probably be World Champion at Tetris in 6 month. In seriousness, in terms of sport, there's bound to be some obscure one that you could at least get fairly good at in 5 years. Something like Disc Golf for example, I could probably get to the Quarter finals in.
  6. Abbey Road is my favourite Beatles album. Harrison and Lennon were on fine, fine form and Macca makes up for Maxwell's Silver Hammer with Oh, Darling and Golden Slumbers which are mint. She's So Heavy is the perfect song to put on in people's cars as long as you don't utter a word over the outro.
  7. I had a Fernando Pancake, I divvint knaa his proper name
  8. 95/96 season when we beat West Ham 3-0. Was a mid-week game and Ferdinand got two and I think Pedro got the other one? I remember one of their centre halves got sent off and my dad was telling me to wave him off, must have only been about 4 at the time. EDIT EDIT: Was 95/96
  9. The Black Eyes Peas and The Script
  10. Yup me too. Saw them at Olympia doing the old and it was magnificent. They are also their own support act playing 40 minutes of "greatest hits" Seeing them again in Brighton on the 22cnd. Cant wait Immense. Can't wait now.
  11. Pardew frantically dancing around the training room door with Crystal Maze music playing in the background. Been giggling like a tit at this for a good 5 minutes.
  12. When he ran past an attacking Arteta so he could back off him for 25 yards was the worst.
  13. Or you could say a couple of glimpses of poor positioning from him as well. Looks like he needs to bulk up a bit as well, at least on the first look at him.
  14. I thought putting that ball boy on at left back was a bit much.
  15. To quote KK himself; Mike Ashley knows nothing about football and Derek Llambias knows less than that. Utter arseholes.
  16. The lyrics on the third album are canny.
  17. I like it. Drumming is immense.
  18. Other way round for me, my gym sessions started precisely because of the overeating. I'm sure that's true of a lot of people who weren't particularly active as kids - there comes a point where your metabolism doesn't do what it used to (and it's not as if I was ever stick-thin in the first place). Fortunately, exercising a bit and eating a bit more healthily aren't the hardest things in the world once you start to see the results and get the motivation that brings - it doesn't mean having to become a soulless GymBot. My point really (and I appreciate what you're saying). If we take the Gemmil example, (and dont take this personally Gemmil). Nearly every night he's cooking some delicious Jamie Oliver offering. While not the worst food in the world, those meals if combined with a normal breakfast lunch and a few treats , will produce a serious amount of calories. Because he is blasting the gym daily, the extra calories are being burned off and he should be keeping the weight off. By his own admission he has usually dwindled from the gym by March and it is at this point the calories will suddenly start to turn to fat. By bashing the gym it is allowing him to "cheat" the system. Add into this the fact that when your younger, you are naturally more energetic and your metabolism works better. When you are older, you are basically fucked. I appreciate they're are exceptions to the rule. sorry like mate but that is just a load of old bollocks. you're using age as an excuse not to excercise. i'm not saying it doesn't get more difficult as you get older but age alone isn't an excuse to not stay active. injury or illness is one thing, but i know plenty of guys in their 50s in my gym that are as fit as a fiddle. a healthy diet plus regular excercise will change the way you look and feel for the better. a healthy diet alone can also do this but to a lesser extent. but tbh, from what i've read on this thread, i'm not convinced you are doing either. i excercise because it makes me feel good and it helps improve body composition. also because i like to eat and our bodies need to be fueled well. i eat a lot of calories but it's all stuff with a good nutritional value, unlike the crap you put into your body. when you are active, you need good range of healthy fats, non-refined carbs and lean protein to give you energy and to help the body recover and muscle mass to build. it sounds like you've got into a path of starving yourself during the week then binge eating junk and boozing at the weekend. while this may result in a calorie deficit and dropping some weight, you're basically going to end up with a 'skinny fat' body composition - in other words, you're muscle mass will drop and you're body will cling on to its fat. so while you will drop pounds and feel good when you attend your weight watchers meetings, you'll still feel embarrassed about taking your shirt off at the beach. i've offered this advice before because but i feel it will fall on deaf ears again. only trying to help you stop wasting your time. Lets remember, your path was admittedly littered with lots of failed attempts. It may be I have to go down the same trodden path. I appreciate there are blokes in their 50's who are super fit and bash the gym but everything has a scale to it. If we take a fitness and healthy eating scale of 1 - 10, with 1 being an utter slob who eats takeaways most nights and does zero exercise, I think most who read your remarks over the months would place you at a 10. I would place myself at about 2.5. I dont want to get to 10, but would be quite happy to get to 5 This being the case, your regime wouldnt suit me, however I do concede that I need to do more to hit my goal and I am looking at ways of putting some sort of weekly plan in place that I can achieve and stick to. nah, not really, at least not anymore. when i was cutting before my wedding i got obsessively into it and i'd say i was a 10 for a period of about 6 months and got into the shape of my life. now i'm probably an 8 or 9 during the week (i still allow myself the odd glass of wine and piece of chocholate after dinner durign the week) then a 5 or 6 at the weekend, when i'll go out to eat and have a few drinks. but i've found a balance of healthy eating and excercise during the week and letting myself go a bit at the weekend. but even then. i'm still making sure the calories i'm getting are nuritious and i'm not starving myself. it works for me; i've got more body fat now than i did a year or two back but i feel good about myself because i've found a sustainable way of living and have lost the love handles for good. I'm sensing a beautiful coming together. The hardened, bitter DG can teach CT about balanced diets and nutrition while the bountiful, optimistic CT changes the entire outlook of DG, showing that, he too, can love again.
  19. Carroll for £1 million If that's true, some of the sales intended were mental and the losses on a lot of those are the worst.
  20. 1 priest 1 nun sorry What goes on there?
  21. Tbf, I'll probably eat something shite today like
  22. If Paul was so psychic, he'd have seen this coming.
