Not a tie but I was desperate for a hanky when I had a streaming cold once so wandered into one of the tailors in the City only to be asked for £12.50 for one - "Fucking keep it" didn't seem to impress the bloke much.

How long a Toon Fan : As long as I can remember - I'm 47. Why the Toon : Dad/Brother - sadly my brother later became a traitorous glory-hunting scouse loving cunt. Location : CM1 Toon Games been to : A few hundred - sporadic pre 79 but from 79 to 96 I missed at the most 3 or 4 games a year, 96-09 I missed 8 or 9. Where we have been / are going : Went to almost all the European games but can't see any more anytime sadly - it's good to see some half decent players and a bit of team spirit but without big money we're limited.

Seen this referred to but didn't realise there was a single simple thread. I'm a half and half wiper - off the seat but still sort of squatting.

Now I have a busier walk to work I find my perfectly well brought up polite "give and take" approach to right of way to simply walking in the city is taken advantage off by cunts who think not diverting their path is some kind of Alpha male (women do it as well) behaviour that makes them get up and go city slickers. I'm so tempted to copy them and knock a few twats over to see if I can teach them something.

Agree booing is pathetic but can undersatand peoples frustration and wanting to make their feelings noted. If managers have what I think is a blind spot about a player, the fans do I suppose have a right to try and influence him - it's a toughie as applause in appreciation of effort (I think he does try) is fair enough but shouldn't mask the fact that the bloke is crap.

Make sure you turn off the taps on the water hoses. Seems obvious but… And have a washing ready to catch anything that comes out if the waste water pipe. Gaffer tape the hose ends upright before you shift it. Pulled it out and started to loosten the hoses before realising they need to be switched off Waste pipe looks like a tough job to disconnect

Does anyone know how to disconnect a washing machine or knows of any pitfalls? I'm having a new one delivered today which is the first one I've ever had to buy and just realised part of the installation/recycle deal is the old one has to be disconnected.

Going a bit Daily Hitler here but even though I agree with the sentiment the practicalities of being able to put whatever life you have on hold to do stuff like this begs the question what are they living on? I can't help thinking some of the trendy London ones especialley will be living on Daddy's allowance which will have a probably conflicted source.

I realised I actually bought some CDs a few months ago - all 5 remastered Suede albums.

Sadly, yes - I think I now I have more than Laz which is a frightening concept..

Thought they were good but not great - never got the dance thing - just thought they were a decent guitar band. Good memories of listening to the first album a lot on holiday with the lads in Cyprus in 89. Pointless seeing them live unless for the occasion or you're off your tits as the bloke simply can't sing. For the list of better Manc bands I'd add James - all opinion of course.

Competitive bastard that I am.

Aye, but did you see/hear his interview with Taylor?- he is the proverbial shy little lad off the pitch as the other players have said.

An unfair comment that can only be based on his very slow start at the club. He's scored and set up a decent amount of goals. And no, if we're playing 2 strikers up front we don't have better players. It's (your original post) also a completely stupid comment because it doesn't make the slightest bit of sense. Are you saying they're anonymous? Invisible? Obertan offers nothing except breaking down moves. Best can't trap a ball, wins very few headers and gives the ball away. When players contribute as little as they do I think they are pointless - if it comes down to defending them as simply bodies on the pitch then thing are bad. As for playing two strikers I've been saying since May we needed wholesale changes as those left at the club were all shit. Ba is starting to look the bargain we hoped but given the qualities of the rest I wouldn't bother with two - I'd play Ben Arfa.

It's not just harsh it's completely stupid. A winger who never beats a man, constantly give the ball away, never puts a cross in and doesn't do any work and a championship striker. The only reason I put it was harsh is that Best tries - whoopy fucking do - he's shit. We have better players. I

Might be harsh but I think we start with 9 men when Obertan and Best play. Then again when Shola came on I thought how much they would be laughing at us so what do I know. Agree we should try Ben Arfa, Marveaux and Santon against Wigan.

Yes

A bit pissed off - been to work today which inviolved replacement buses and the tube (God it stinks) and as the job took longer than planned I had nowt to eat from breakfast time till I got in at 5:30. So I made a massive curry (when I say made I mean poured a Patak sauce over some chicken and nuked it) but had only finished about a third of it when a bit went down the wrong way and I ended up vomming Couldn't face the rest of it - what a fucking waste.

Probably the year I made the most as a contractor but didn't save a penny of it. Went to Belgrade as well as a couple of other places on holiday. Cup final of course. Also went out with a Goddess for a couple of months - I've resigned myself to the fact I'll never do better.

Kick the cunts out and let them play in Vietnam - will make it easy to set up new supply lines for their city's main product.

I wish the fuckers would stop talking as if Scotland ever had or do now have any fucking chance whatsoever.

This is another reason I hate internationals. I realise we want good players who do play at that level but we always seem to lose out injury wise.

Never been a fan of Apple or the man but this quite saddened me - I suppose my inner Geek coming out. RIP

Anyone get beyond half an hour of Terra Nova? The starting premise of the family having 3 kids which I think is iffy now never mind when the planet's properly fucked made me start off not really caring about the main characters. Then the cheesy cliches lined up one by one - tough commander with a heart of gold, sullen teen son who hates his Dad, etc, etc. Also nobody got eaten soon enough - though I suppose someone did at some point otherwise it would be pointless having fucking dinosaurs.

I read a few articles which did make it seem like an unsafe conviction but I also read what the family said about the 47 wounds and 2 knives - that puts it back in the whole "dodgy as fuck" category.
