  1. Maybe right, just what i'd heard( from the mate of a sister's partner's dad who knows a bloke......................) still, not nice.
  2. As I see it, there are two problems- the Northern Europe culture of getting blitzed,and the strength of the alcohol being sold. In France for example,it has had virtually 24 hr opening for years, yet it is a serious social faux-pas to get 'blitzed'. fine to drink steadily over the course of a day, but if you start to get wobbly, it's not seen as a point of weakness to stop drinking alcohol and hit the soft drinks. The general strength of beers seems to have gone up, 5% being the standard, whereas when I started going to boozers, 4-4.2% seemed the norm. I know firms are bringing out lower strength versions of popular lagers, but the fact that they're advertising them as such imo means the people who SHOULD be drinking them never will-" ownly for puffs that lite shite man" Banning supermarkets from selling beers as loss leaders will do nowt- just start up the Calais Run black market again.
  3. Pratchett recently revealed he has a form of Alzheimers, it is rapid-onset and he's been told he has a year or so at best of 'sanity'. So, he won't be knocking out too many more books. Like or loathe him , you've got to have some sympathy for the bloke, it's like a living death sentence.
  4. Cruel Madonna? shouldn't that be " Madder than a Bucket of Frogs Madonna"
  5. The Magus in there is a canny session ale.
  6. Microsoft/Biggins fella please. Don't fancy another neo-con ultra christian in the region. Reg Vardy is enough.

  8. Now there's a thought. Mind, could get us in bother with Celtic fans.
  9. Agreed. If he turned out to be the next Ferguson i'd happily eat pie of humbleness.... just think it's a bloody big gamble to take. He isn't saying that though. ok I am tho ...but ....like

  11. Oh Aye.... Neil Young... Over rated tosser. Lynrd Skynrd had the right idea
  12. who sounds like a chronic asthmatic mumbling thru his nose......... out of tune
  13. I was born in Durham.Lived north of the river since 6 months old. Now live in Forst Hall, which is North Tyneside NOT Newcastle. Shall I fuck off and support Berwick/Mackems/spartans/west allotment celtic?
  14. At some point in the future Shearer may be good enough to manage NUFC. Until then can we not just have a Proper, experienced gaffer, one who might stay more than 2 weeks. I can't really get on this "Shearer for manager" trip. It makes absolutely no sense to me. Especially given the current state of affairs at the club.
  15. 1st half is cracking.... blood thunder and revenge etc. 2nd half is all about some hippy martyr type.
  16. Brave New World is a canny read. There was an eighties film of it tho' - absolute cack.
  17. Paying my respects to the old boys marching thru Forest Hall.
  18. Not really surprised by this. I'll never forgive the b*stards for spouting their IRA shite at Pedro's testimonial. Why do we ALWAYS ask these cnuts to plat at SJP?
  19. : clapping: Agreed- tree hugging bollix at it's worst. Thomas Hardy always sends me into a soma-like trance. THE most depressing ,miserable beggar ever to put pen to paper.
  20. Hmmm.. where on pge 7 exactly. I refer you to my previous state of Dollyness I just wondered if I could make you check. (it was page 13 ) how about you quote he relevant post here, saving us numpties the bother.
