  1. A young cousin of mine once tried to convince me that "jamp" was a word, his rationale being that if he could say it then it was a word.
  2. Met my new neighbour this week. She talks about a hundred mile an hour and as though she's not a complete stranger, you know one of those folk who upon meeting you for the first time forego the usual pleasantries and instead start talking at you about themselves like standing in front of a jet engine and constantly seem to be in the middle of a story, as though you must somehow already know what they're talking about. She said her man plays "yoogee-oh". Told her I've not a scooby what that is, but that I used to play football. Cue puzzled look from her and an attempt to explain to me that her partner, a grown man, plays a childrens card game called "Yu Gi Oh" which is apparently akin to Pokemon. A grown man. Haven't met her fella yet, though my wife has, but it's absolutely nailed on that he's into World of Warcraft, Games Workshop and sci fi TV programmes. Pair of sad c***s.
  3. Doesn't seem interested in blooding our youngsters for the most part. A good coach and has given us a modern, professional approach to the game, but can at times be tactically naive / stubborn, which isn't uncommon with first time managers. He's not going to better what he's achieved with us if he stays at the Rock, it'd be a case of treading water trying to replicate similar results, so it makes sense if he gets a move to a full time side and he'll go with our best wishes and no hard feelings. I'd be perfectly happy for him to stay here for the foreseeable future, but accept that he can take us no further due to the size of DFC and its fanbase / finances. His time with us should stand us in good stead with other managers looking to go somewhere that there's little pressure and it's possible to overachieve and make a name for themselves.
  4. I had to slowly and painstakingly explain to someone today how VAT works on invoices and the difference between VAT inclusive and exclusive and the rate of same. I then had to tell them the amount that this adds on to the invoice. This took several attempts and was in spite of the fact that the person had the invoice in front of them, which is broken down line by line to show all of this.
  5. I'm 30 and have numerous grey hairs in my head, nose and beard. Went clean shaven recently after years as a beardy weirdy because my beard was going grey in places
  6. While the builders do their thing we'll be bunking elsewhere for the wife and nipper's sake
  7. I'm drinking Sol and Jose Cuervo and watching the tele, when I'm supposed to be moving out of my house.
  8. I certainly hope not, because as you well know, discussing death on Pie and Bovril is verboten. Some people who post on here know people who've died you know!
  9. What's happened to the Jake Livermore thread?
  10. Each to their own, but one day of sitting round the pool drinking the hotel's local lager and eating their buffet food is more than enough for me, so inevitably I don't get the benefit of the all inclusive.
  11. Past few times I've gone abroad I've gone all inclusive and within a few days I've gotten bored as f**k and been out spending money and ended up paying out a fortune. All inclusive gets really old really fast.
  12. Look at Wrongy Wrongson over here, wronging the place up with his wrongness.
  13. The shoes that a night stalker wears to hang around the changing rooms at a public pool.
  14. Based on the various trainer photos that DA Baracus has posted on this thread I am forced to assume that he is a socially inadequate sex offender.
  15. They're a horror show. Like someone crossed Jordan's with Uggs
  16. Its always been pay in full up front for ST's.
  17. Kick him in the junk for me. Mind tell him it's from me.
  18. If it's Waitrose then Clarko works in the Helensburgh one. Congrats by the way.
  19. My Da once ended up boxing with Hot Chocolate at a night out in Glasgow.
