I thought he'd died years ago.

I just saw his real name was Anthony Benedetto. That's a much better name, much more exotic.

Tony Bennett sounds like a brick layer from Hull.

I’ve been pronouncing it ‘Dee-ARR-bee’, whereas European journalists and commentators pronounce it ‘Dear-BEE’ or ‘Dee-Abby’.

I’m going to call him Moussa..

Reminds me of one of the funniest moments ever. I still laugh about it now.

Its made funnier because you can imagine how much it hurt  

 

 

Dean from that series lived on the next street to me. When I got to school one morning a lot of the other kids were going loopy because they’d been talking to Bubble in the corner shop. He was up here visiting Dean.

edit: I’ve just read that those pair released a song for the 2002 World Cup. Probably why he was visiting. So now I’m going to listen..

So I found out that Helen Skelton is only 17 in that video.

Do you think there’ll be any Lazio fans at all? Bad idea to wear one of my Roma shirts?

Upside down speed camera signs.

There’s one at the end of my road and I hate it. It’s made me notice more of them and I’d say about 10% of them are upside down.

This photo was tweeted by another sad act who gets annoyed at them.

If I’m honest, I can’t even tell you how I know it’s upside down, but it is.

Well I’ve learnt a thing or two about checking in early!

There’s probably a reason for this and I’m just being thick, but checking in to a hotel or a flight, days earlier, online.

I booked a hotel last week for this Sunday night. I’ve just had an email come through saying I can now check in. So I clicked “check in”. It said “Great news, Mr Whack, you’re now checked in!”

Who’s that for? What’s happened?

Different kind of cringe though. Norm was the best at saying the absolute wrong thing.

 

I think this is my favourite clip.

I got tickets to Sarah Millicans playground gig in Stafford in June. I mentioned up thread but there is 5 or 6 comedians trying out new material hosted by her, £9 a ticket. 

Was this last night? My mate Danny Clives was one of the other comics.

so what was all that banging then if they died straight away?

Edit - Deleted - rubbish joke

Just now, wishywashy said:

They'll hopefully go away for a few months and spit out a badge that's significantly better than both of the options that actually went to the fan vote (which, imo, is not a very difficult task), and the awful mishandling of this situation will be swiftly forgotten about.

No god-awful surveys this time though, please. If they have to, at least do one where less than 80% of the questions aren't complete nonsense.

You think it does pop and can be iconic?

I agree it's doesn't pop on that purple background, it would if it was white.

But that's been my issue with the crest really*, I think it'll look great on a white away shirt, but it looks dull on a claret shirt.

*that and the lion facing the wrong way

I don’t think it’s too bad, just ruined by the sponsor.
