????

on account of my old man, a fondness for Wegner, Hull being a sh1thole and a long term dislike of Steve Bruce; I am not going with the underdogs - COME ON ARSENAL

All very Gerald Manley-Hopkins....without the poetry

Bouncey slide inflation right there - ?1 for 3 goes last year

I'm just praying for an announcement by tomorrow morning and reasonably optimistic. Anyway, congrats City and their boring* 102 + goal football *According to Mick M

Retire it

You asked :)

Fan of bus travel - hand up. Trying to remember last time my bus terminated in Camberwell?? 40 stopped at GG roundabout last week which was a bit annoying but still closer than ED Station to my gaff. Times this year had to stand on the bus for any part of my journey= 0

Always a massive queue= food must be fantastic, and so it comes to pass. Behavioural Economics in action (apply to bars/clubs....but not RyanAir).

*waves at the fisherman* .....how's that bet looking Mick?

PS - IMHO......Dickens got it perfectly with Uriah Heep way before the internet

he made me laugh comes in, 'engages' for a week or so and then suddenly links galore

'In my humble opinion'....wtf is a humble opinion about? You either have one or you don't...... Humble is at best an irrelevance but normally means I AM RIGHT, it very rarely indicates any humbleness at all

Even us pragmatists are allowed a bit of romance sometimes. A society operating under a collective moral framework (nothing to do with Seabags 'no rules') with minimum need for rules* is a beautiful, though largely impratical thing. *read other people be they public schoolboys or Hampstead lefties (mainly public schoolgirls) telling us plebs what to do

He'll grow out of it when he's about 45

PS "and it's once, twice, three times a season"

I never played football with him but I was once in Millbank studios with him and he just oozed contempt for everyone else in the room, really genuinely felt at the time he was a really nasty piece of work without him saying anything to me.

Prices are expensive because there is not enough housing in places where people want to live as we have the most restrictive planning laws in Europe. It is as simple as that and doesn't require another 40 page thread of crap....but I'm not holding my breath

Chelsea will win SFA and Man City are far nearer Liverpool than Chelsea, so no harm done....apart from your bet. Mourinho has, of course, a massive cheek, in calling West Ham's football 19th century....

Can we genuinely play you every week please Jah?

Ps honuory mentions for Salmond, midges and 'the Old Firm"
