  1. Some things never change on here i see. I dont know how some of you get through the day Up the villa
  2. I should be moving into my new house within a month so for the last year I've been looking daily at houses near to me and monitoring prices etc. What I have noticed is sellers trying to make a quick buck by asking inflated prices. Original asking prices and what the property is actually worth are quite different. We paid 20k under asking price for ours. Agents said they were looking for 200k so they just lump on a fair bit extra which I can understand i suppose. Another one by me....200k for small 3 bed detached...and i mean small. Its now down to 160k....deluded idiot probably hasn't heard of zoopla. It was bought for 150k 5 years ago.
  3. No i don't think he's been fit since he came here. His performances in the relegation season were like mine when I used to play on a sunday morning, after a session the night before. Just hope someone else thinks he's worth a gamble
  4. Exactly this. Bruce is giving him the chance, he's talking him up...so either way he'll have a decent player to utilise or another club will take a chance on him.
  5. We used to sell liver, lights, hearts, kidneys...and a lot of it too. I tried to introduce more 'exotic' things like chinese spare ribs, and different flavoured chicken, stuff like that I remember bringing out a tray of meaty chinese ribs, they were brilliant, really tasty too....one of our regular 'old uns' looked at them & said 'what the hell are they?...& whats that smell!!??'...I'll never forget the look on her face...I thought she was going to throw up there and then! I mean, spare f****n ribs, who doesn't know what they are?
  6. My family used to own a butchers shop where I worked for a number of years. Right in the heart of the black country. A large proportion of the older clientele would often turn their noses up at anything foreign, 'I wouldn't ate it if yow paid me!!' they would say. 'I'll have 3 pigs feet please, and have you got any brains?....only he likes em on toast for his supper.' Brilliant stuff
  7. Saturday night. Went out with my missus, her mom, her brother and his girlfriend. Had a few drinks in tenbury to add to the few I had had during the afternoon...so I was pleasantly tipsy without being drunk. We booked a table in the local indian restaurant for 8.30 despite my mother in law not liking indian food at all. She said she was happy just having something off the 'english' menu. So we sat down and we're having the 'not liking indian food' conversation and that she was missing out on some fantastic cuisine. Brother in law is joining in, and trying to get her to at least try chicken tikka with some salad. Still she's not having it and insists she's fine with something bland :-) Waiter arrives so we all look up to tell him what we would like. Mother in law is first, then I'm next, as I'm sitting next to her. She says...'I'll have the roast chicken with fries and peas'. But I hear...'I'll have the roast chicken with frozen peas' Now I start to titter, expecting brother in law to join in and say something....he doesn't, and he's sitting there dead pan. Now due to the 6 or 7 beers I'd consumed, in this split second I could not work out for the life of me what she had meant to say. So it looks like this is what she orders in an indian and everyone is fine with it....which adds to my increasing amusement. The waiter looks at me....he's a funny looking fella anyway, and he's got a massive grin on his face. I then go into a 20 minute bout of uncontrollable laughter...I'm not joking...20 minutes solid. My missus had to order my food as the tears were streaming down my face. I managed to explain what I was laughing at about 5 minutes in....by which time everyone else was in hysterics laughing at me. 2 days later and I'm still chuckling when i think about it. Was it really that funny? I've never laughed so hard in my life though
  8. Anyway, how about everyone of the 48 injured surviving? Fantastic work by our emergency services
  9. As some posters have already said, if there was one organised then it would be impeccably respected and rightly so.
  10. Why else would people have voted for them?
  11. Many moons ago I used to train with a mate of mine who I still see now. When training legs, usually on the leg press, he used to shout 'warrior' as he pushed the weight up! Needless to say, he took it far more seriously that I did. I still laugh to myself about it now...I'd never tell him though, he'd kick my lazy fat ass
  12. Wasn't keen on the 3d scan, thought they looked a bit strange! We just had the standard. Yeah the time is flying...we're also buying a new house because there is 4 of us in a 2 bed terrace at the mo...pressure is well and truly on! Just started feeling kicks the last week or so which is great
  13. Good point well made....but the 'like' was for 'nut jobbery'
  14. Plenty of morons voted to remain too, without knowing what they were voting for...but this isn't the thread for that squabble is it
  15. Great news! I had the same news last month, a little lady My mrs is 21 weeks now and already huge!! I didn't really mind either way, boy or girl, but strangely, from the day we found out we were pregnant, I automatically thought of a little girl and nothing else.
  16. I think that religion is a good rule book for many to follow, and for many to turn to in times of need...but I think you can be a genuinely good, rounded person without it, and as a 'story' I just don't believe it.
  17. Aldi/lidl do not stock anywhere near the variety that the big supermarkets do so I think they miss out on 'fancier', top end products. But comparing like for like, ie meat, fish, vegetables, I think aldi/lidl are better. Tesco's chicken fillets are a bug bear of mine...guaranteed to shrink to half the size after minimal cooking. Pile of crap
  18. I love a bit of inside knowledge
  19. This may be true but I still can't get the image out of my head of this dope doing that interview with cotton wool shoved up his nose. So yeah, bomb squad
  20. They have made it a man v woman issue and its not...it's arrogance that gets the nasty response, be it male-male, female-male, female-female.
  21. Exactly this. Sensible posting bucks
  22. Another reason for other fans to think we're a bunch of tossers...and rightly so.
