  1. 'really', 'absolutely', 'indeed'... essentially all defaults in conversation which equate to 'I have nothing of interest or humour to add'.
  2. Seconded The Flask, also The Wells, though not been for years and believe it's gone and gone 'gastro'! Primrose Hill (a tad too romantic for first date perhaps) lovely walk and pubs, The Engineer...
  3. Off topic but anyone seen the film, 'The Bicycle Thief', in three words ... very moving, like...
  4. I'm lazy with my choices, even hitting favourites on DAB has become a chore. Mainly 5 live, really like The Monday NIght Club but think 'Motty' should stick to what he knows (knew). Annoyingly Colin Murray (Kopite) has grown on me but I've never quite got Fighting Talk, just makes me cringe. Richard Bacon (no known footy affiliation) has the greatest booker in tv and radio, everyday he has great, interesting guests. Radio 4 is catered for by Review of the Week but is too unashamedly middle class. Some of the comedy is great, some awful. I often spin over to World Service, randomly some great features and less randomly the greatest phone in footy show anywhere in the UK. That's about it, dislike commercial, not snobbery just hate the ads. Love music but never really tune in to listen to it.
  5. Riots in the pst have served a purpose. Untold money was thrown into the regeneration of Toxteth following the riots in the 80s. The problem with yesterday's riots and others of late are that they get hijacked by 'rent a mob anarchists' (aplogies I really am not a Daily Mail reader) who don't nec give a flying fig about the initial issue. They'd riot about the increase in price of stamps if given a suitable platform. As discussed earlier in this thread, the agenda as far as the media concerned becomes the violence as opposed to the cuts, which defeats the object of the demo.
  6. Militant cyclists love a ruck!
  7. Fair enough, 2 up against chelsea is a gd win. Just find the liverpool obsessed media tiresome.
  8. Throw in Drogba who clearly wasn't himself and only played a half.
  9. 'Liverpool are back' 'Liverpool are back' - that's all I've heard from Kopites since Sunday, suggesting that they are (were) too big for medicroity and that the poor start to the season was a merely an aberration.
  10. Kopites you do make me laugh. Hodgson is now the man all of a sudden! You beat Chelsea reserves, albeit comprehensively, their squad is nothing compared to what it was.

    Driving

    Motorway drving on busy motorways... Inside lane, lorries driving at 65mph or slower, so constanly darting in and out of middle lane to overtake. On a busy motorway this isn't practical. Outside lane, if not prapred to drive at 80mph plus then deal with a constant stream of fast, aggresive impatient, flashing wankers up your arse. Middle lane, 70 mph seems the going rate but then have to deal with Jeremy Clarkson purists who argue that the middle is only for overtaking etc... If motorways were less busy, then driving to the left unless overtaking would of course be practical.
  12. Conclusion: Narnia - why don't you have a rummage around his school bag for fags? and ignore all the TCM bollox
  13. 'Jet' was his fav.
  14. Have to agree about the 're-mastering' though, if it isn't broken ...
  15. Beatles aside, don't forget Wings. Band on the Run, his best work outside the Fab Four.
  16. Penny for the Guy.
  17. With PC Murdoch having a fly smoke - genius.
  18. Barons Court and Earl's Court, never quite understood that.
  19. I reckon, good chance he'll be gone soon. Romantic Kopites will probably get their wish and King Kenny will step up until the end of the season, big mistake.
  20. Matthew 123, think you've nailed it. Sweetners all round to keep everyone happy until Summer,then off he goes.
  21. Media attention now switches back to Liverpool, watch out Hodgson!
  22. I think his agent screwed this whole thing up, that statement about thh club having no ambition put Rooney in a difficult position. If he sacks his agent (doubt it) and denies having anything to do with the statement, the fans and media will quickly forget.
  23. Rooney signs 5 year contract with Man U.
  24. Kind offer - thanks.
  25. Do you really believe Mancini pulls the strings at Eastlands? Ultimately, if the owner decides he wants Rooney (to rub their faces in it might be reason enough) he will send Marwood off with a blank check.
