  1. I think it depends what part of Brum you live and what generation you are from. I know Villa fans who consider the Baggies our main rivals and likewise Baggies fans who hate us more than Wolves.
  2. I do find Wolves demise quite funny

    I'd have a few similar choices: If it was me (and I haven't looked) I'd have guessed London Heathrow Atlanta (remember reading it was busiest in America) Tokyo Narita Frankfurt Beijing or maybe Hong Kong instead of Tokyo

    Its a strange question to ask as there are various factors that you could claim to be the busiest in the world. Most passenger movements. most airplane movements, most destinations offered, most international movements etc.
  5. I guess my biggest regret is that I didn't have an idea of what I wanted to do career wise. As it happens I fell into banking and now make a decent living but I don't enjoy it. It's a means to an end. It pays for my holidays and a good standard living so I can't be too critical of it. However, if I had my time again I would have trained to be a pilot. If i'd have given it my all from a young age I Imagine i would be living a good life now. Other regrets? Not many.. few women I wish i'd given more of a chance too and some I wish I hadn't!
  6. Z4 is manlier than a Z3. SLK is definitely a ladies car. I must admit I did consider a convertible a few years back.. a BMW M3 Evo convertible but the fad passed. I don't think I would consider one now.
  7. Biggest game for years in my opinion. A real test of our nerves. I'm shitting it!
  8. Harry Brown is on tonight. Haven't seen it before so will tune in. Seems to have reasonable reviews.

    Then you realised that they are all as bad as each other.
  10. Did you carry on? The mood was somewhat soured. I can't even claim the folly of youth in this incident. It was 2 months ago.
  11. My confession about being sick over a girls face (yes I was drunk) while shagging her seems insignificant in comparison now!
  12. Never used them but mates have and no issues,. They are a reputable company. I used Trailfinders for my first SE Asia trip and they were fine... everything went like clockwork. However, been back to Asia multiple times since and never used an agent since... just booked the flights and hotels myself.

    I'll be 34 in a couple of months and to be honest, I don't really care. Yeah I look back on pictures 10 years ago when I was fitter and slimmer etc and wish I could go back to that but on the flip side, I was always skint then.

    Favourite airlines

    Saying that, 'budget' airline prices were the best in about 2006-2008, from my memory.. I remember £40 return flights to Rome and Lisbon on BMI Baby and that included checked luggage etc. Nothing seems that cheap nowadays.. even Easyjet and Monarch to Copenhagen and Malaga respectively last year were about £80 each return.
  15. Being able to relax tonight cheers me up.. as had a job interview today and had been fretting/worrying about it for ages!

    I think it would be banned as I seem to recall a song being investigated years ago due to irregular purchasing patterns. Something to do with influencing/fixing the charts.
  17. I'm not in Brum centre but I pay £525 for a one bed flat in Four Oaks (on the cross city into New St - trains every 10 mins)
  18. http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-to-rent/property-41182088.html If I had to move into the City it would be something like this. Slap bang in the middle of the financial district which has plenty of decent bars and restaurants. Also not too far to St Pauls Square for more eating/drinking options. Plus there, you are just far enough away from the cesspit that is Broad St
  19. Man Utd couldn't have picked a team more likely to roll over tonight than us. I just hope its not an absolute spanking
  20. Watched the S1 finale of Person of Interest last night. Thought the whole series was superb.
  21. The Karate Kid remake. I'll say it... yeah, I quite liked it.
  22. If you don't want to live in the city centre then you could live anywhere on the cross city line. Most it would take you is 30 mins or so to get into New St and plenty of options.

    I just love the name of them - brothel creepers!
  24. Not a great days results, bar the Wigan, However, as 3 of our 5 games left are winnable (Sunderland, Norwich and Wigan) if we do go down, it'll be because we deserve to go down.
