  1. This has probably been raised before, but with 2.5k pages to check.....etc.... Anyway.....those d!ckhead drivers who have one headlight out so they put the other on full beam to compensate ! Words fail me....
  2. Themed fancy dress birthday parties........what a ball ache, especially if you dont particularly like the person that much. The fact that its themed narrows down the choice and I usually leave it til the last minute to get something and end up paying over the odds for an ill fitting costume (my fault I admit). What yanks my chain even more is the fact that some dont bother dressing up & just rock up on the night, which is bad enough but when the host says "its ok, they made the effort to come" I just know had it been me who did it I'd have got pelters for being lazy.
  3. Been thinking this ever since he was linked to Arsenal for £15m in one of MON's seasons. I believe he is a big part of the reason there seems to be a psychological problem at the club This ! 1 million percent this !! He only had pace and now he's losing that. Football brain ? Any kind of brain at all - I doubt ?! I've always described him as a sprinter who plays football, or sometimes tries to. I dont buy in to this "he's a villa fan, you GOTTA play him !" rubbish. Grealish too.....ok, he's a lot younger but I've heard from one particularly reliable source (european cup winning centre half KM) that he's already going around acting bertie big b0ll0x, an attitude so typical these days of those who have done nothing in the game yet. We are in a scrap, a dog fight, one we might just fail to win this time & we can't have brain dead Gabby or will o' the wisp Jack skipping around on the pitch too often. We need to win ugly. Leicester did it, Sunderland did it. We need to get rid of our soft underbelly especially at home and grow a pair.
  4. Going back to my previous rant about loud sneezers.....here's a related moan......constant snifflers. I am in the middle of a 12 hour night shift and the lad behind me is sniffling every 10 seconds in a really pathetic, simpering way. What makes it worse, he said "sorry if my sniffling starts to annoy anyone". Sorry ?? Blow yer fckin nose ya wimp or go home sick but knowing my luck, I'll catch his cold by the end of the shift meaning my 4 days off will be just awesome :o(
  5. Really? If you put a tenner on you'd be lucky to get 11 quid back. We are truly awful. I got 16/5 for a 90 mins SHA win. Knowing my luck they'll do us in extra time.
  6. Sutton farmer's market every 2nd friday of the month in gracechurch parade. Fowlers cheese stand does an extra, extra mature cheddar & it piddles all over these so called X rated, wrapped in black/red wax you get in supermarkets. It's a bit crumbly but otherwise has the texture of a regular cheddar. It is sooo strong I have to keep it in a tupperware box cos it stinks out the fridge ! The taste makes you feel like the roof of your mouth has been scratched and the tang...........oh boy, the tang !! Not cheap but I doubt you'll find stronger cheddar out there
  7. People who exaggerate their sneezes or who sneeze too loudly. Clearing in the woods who sits behind me is a prime example and he does that double sneeze as loud as he possibly can and often. Sounds like a gun going off at times ! I really think it's attention seeking. Then again, he's a man utd fan from Nuneaton, a gobby one at that. Why am I not surprised ?
  8. When watching the world cup......cameras pick out a really fit girl.....she sees herself on the big screen and starts playing up to it.....then the lard arse bloke in front of her also sees HE'S on screen so he stands up, starts wobbling around like a buffoon totally blocking my view of the said lovely lady :-(
  9. Morons who queue too close behind you when you're at a cashpoint and almost knock you out of the way as soon as you start to walk away. I now turn right round to walk off, invariably bumping in to them as they move forward, saying "jesus, give me some space !" as I carry on. Not subtle but needs to be done. Same goes for those in supermarket queues......if you really want to stand THAT close to me then you're more than welcome to pay for my stuff as well !
  10. Listen to that broad Dublin accent. His parents are irish so he qualifies through that. If you're gonna be a smart arse remember that England have capped players who haven't a single connection with England other than the fact that they lived and worked here. John Barnes and Tony Dorigo spring to mind, the latter was born and bred in Australia to Italian parents. My parents were Irish and I consider myself irish as well. There's a lot more to nationality than just where you were born. I would be against them playing for England if they were playing now. Fair enough he is of Irish descent but he is English first and foremost. Ireland should have some pride in their national team and stop picking Englishmen. what like england picking michael owen? The man was from hawarden north wales! Not the same sport but......the England cricket team.......plenty of south africans.....a couple of irishmen.....a barbadian.....until recently a zimbabwean and pakistani coach ?
  11. Tsk ! No wonder the Dubs are shoite at hurling. Had that been a Corkman, no one would've been left standing ! Up the Rebels !!!
  12. Lol brilliant Well at least we can add rizzle kicks to our list of celebrity fans.
  13. Anybody have experience of the above ? Am thinking of using them just to get rid of my old megane which wouldn't get feck all in part ex for a newer one and I just can't be bothered with private selling. I don't know but I get the impression that they might be jokers, just from the annoying adverts. Comments welcome, thanks.
  14. Aah ok thanks. Presumed as my match tickets were in North upper that we'd be using the nearest corp lounge.
  15. Morning folks. Just a quick question re the above. Am I right in thinking that you can only get in to the 82 lounge once you've gone through the turnstile in the north stand ? I'm collecting match tickets and passes to the lounge from the north stand ticket office but seem to vaguely recall the entrance to this lounge is from the north stand concourse only... I don't want to be doing laps of villa park trying to find the entrance door. Cheers & utv !!
  16. Scrawny, white pikey yoof types that speak wif a Jamaican accent, ya get me blad ? You come from Tamworth, not Montego Bay.
  17. Back in mid 90's I was a steward at VP and started off my "career" in the old north stand car park.....anyway, one night game I'd been given STRICT instructions to get early comers to park down the bottom of the park (those cars that came in from Trinity Road entrance) and then we could fill it up from that wall, by where the club shop is - it might be a bit hard for younger VTers to picture it, but it was in the days of the old trinity road stand still being there. So...with this "if you don't follow orders with the car park tonight you'll be sacked" warning bouncing around my head, here comes the first car,,,,,,I flag it down, lean down by the window and am shocked to see that the first guy I have to tell to park 100 yards further away than he should is none other than Dennis Mortimer !!! I bumbled and stuttered my way, apologising all the time telling my hero to park where I tell him....he was charm personified, laughed it off & told me "not to worry, laa !" shook my hand and off he went. Two minutes later....next car...Paul Barron....again, I'm politeness itself, apologising about it all. His response ? "F*ck that, I'm working for Sky tonight, I'm parking where I want ! " drove off and parked his green fiat punto just by the north stand reception. That has always stuck with me. If anyone out of the two had the right to be arsey then it wasn't the bloke who used to sport a dodgy perm !
  18. Sainsburys do a "naanster" wrap....chick tikka, rice & mango chutney. 90 secs in the m/wave.....naan is surprisingly good and doesn't have that "long life" taste to it, which I was expecting.
  19. I was there that night too....I also remember Cruyff running the show despite having one ankle heavily bandaged - or so I thought - perhaps not, but he deffo limped off when subbed.
  20. Just avoid the high street. Always.
  21. Does anyone know what the background music is to the "l love football because...." clip ? Today its thiago silva being interviewed. No singing to the music, purely instrumental. Thanks in advance...
  22. The prospect of harry redknobb being asked about everything England in the build up to the world cup by the london media. ........jesus as I type this he's just popped up on SSN about andros townsend !!!!!!!! Just cos he was the people's choice for manager..........apparently.
  23. On the sugar in tea topic...what pisses me off is those who claim they can smell sugar in a brew. F*ck off, can you !! Tray of teas brought in by the office junior....."here...this one's your's - got no sugar in it " after he almost dips his hooter in it, sniffing away.
  24. Such as carcraft, motorpoint etc..... What are your experiences ? I know the cars are usually cheaper but what are the draw backs ? Can't test drive to them ? Sold as seen attitude ? Poor warranties ? I'd be interested in you replies. ...
