Tough one when it's your missus saying that stuff. Sounds like she needs to spend some time in the Toontastic Re-education Camp. Get that woman a login!

That photo man. Nose like a joiner's elbow.

I think there were similar surveys when Sunak floated his ridiculous national service idea (remember that ffs?!).

Where's that Diaz story from? It sounds like a spoof.

Aye heard this just before. Absolutely terrible news.

I think the answer to the question is Brexit, voting Tory, buying up property for rental income. And then to top it off, and I don't know if this is a majority or a vocal minority, but being absolute fucking cunts when it's suggested to them that young people face hardships that they never had to contend with. "Eat less avocado toast" and all the shite about snowflakes and being too soft, etc. These twats bought 4 bed houses for under £20k and retire on unbelievable pensions. My mam didn't work for the vast majority of my childhood and has a pension I might just about surpass having worked all of my adult life in jobs that pay multiples of what she would have been earning.

I think I've mentioned this on here before but when my job was at risk cos of Brexit, my own mother told me that "well if you can't find another job with your CV, you're doing something wrong". Honestly, I paint a bad picture of my mam on here, but in reality it's anything for her kids and if anyone does anything to upset either of us she'd murder them. But Brexit was this fucking thing for people like her that sent them completely daft. That was the first time she'd ever said anything like that to me, and the first time it was clear that her brain was starting to melt because of Facebook. One of my old mates from school contacted me a few years back and said "do you see the stuff your mam puts up on Facebook?". I don't cos I'm not on there, but I fucking dread to think.

On this point, I was watching the Geordie Journos thing last week and they were saying that because their business is so heavily linked to ad revenue, they have to write 10 (TEN) stories per day. Which is why Newcastle World are the biggest bellends going for misleading clickbaity headlines. And why you shouldn't be reading any of the shite that gets written on there.

Ok boomer.

His son was born there too. Minikiev.

The Tories have come out and said that saying it is a personal matter doesn't cut it and we need to know what it is. Which is genuinely appalling. As shit as Labour are, that lot are nasty cunts.

Starmer made that comeback but also failed to guarantee that Reeves would remain in post. So Badenoch stands up and, with a visibly upset Reeves sat next to Starmer, says "what a shame for the Chancellor he couldn't give her that guarantee". Oof. Of course they've come out and said she's safe etc afterwards, but Labour are in total disarray at the minute.

I think they gave it to Bally at one point.

Reeves in tears and looking absolutely fucking wrecked in PMQs when Badenoch started questioning her future. Apparently it was due to "a personal matter", but who knows.

"I speak mackem very well. I learn it from a bewk."

They might be right about the Bilbao connection mind. I can't help but see the Spanish connection in Renton's version of a mackem accent. The passyen. The stedyium.

I don't have to get up at all during the night..... Yet. I'm sure it's in the post.

My mam used to work with the bassist out of the Toy Dolls. He was in the civil service. For some reason she got me a signed photo of the band. I mean this was probably 1989, 5 years after they'd had their sole UK hit and this cheeky cunt was handing out signed photos at his job in the civil service.

Paddy McGuinness plays Dracula, or Ralph Malph's great grandson. That's the pool we're fishing in.

It's why I look about 25.

Mitchell leaving has denied us our Hot Mitch Summer. That's what I'm taking from all this.

We've missed out on Delap and Pedro and we're still miles apart on a valuation for the lad we've already agreed personal terms with. We're currently miles away from what Forest want for Elanga, and Guehi looks to be off to Liverpool. And pre season starts on Monday. Even if it's true that we had to wait til 1st July for money to go out the door, we could have had deals set up to drop on 1st July, but that hasn't happened. It's clearly not going very well.

It's actually taught me that I drink far too much during the day. It's cos I'm in the house by myself bored working all day, so I'll neck bottles of water and tea and coffee just as something to do to get me away from my desk. I can easily have downed 2 litres by 9am and probably 4 to 5 litres a day most days.

Aye, the rule in this thread should be just to spill what's going on, and don't take the piss too much when people do. Better that people are talking about stuff and getting things checked out.

Wykiki looks to have started his today. Sounds like he'll need two jugs.
