  1. I don't worry my wee arse about anyone. If you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you. Lately I've been called a "coward" and a feckin "traitor" because I'm voting No in the Indyref. What a way to win people over !!
  2. Totally agree. Ayr is the same. 5 x Ladbrokes 6 x Corals William Hills x 2 Bet Fred x 1 There's maybe more, that's just off the top of my head.
  3. No doubt the bookies will try to get the government involved. Guaranteed income for the treasury will not be easy to ban countrywide if other councils take the same steps. Puggies could be next if the bookies nightmare goes nationwide. I'm amazed that a 10p in the £1 gambling tax didn't come back in before folk with an extra bedroom got penalised. It's a funny old world. f**k up folk with little chance of changing their circumstances before putting a tax on folk who fling money around for pleasure, or the businesses that they throw their money at.
  4. I've been hunting for this clip from Scotch and Wry for years......finally someone has uploaded it. Reminds me of the barber me and my brother got sent to, always went home with a lollipop and a plaster. Alky Broon, The Cheeriest Barber in the Toon.
  5. Years ago there was a wee train driver(retired now) who had unbelievable bad luck in that he'd had a couple of "one unders", suicides. He got labeled Jimmy the Jinx. Well, after Jimmy the Jinx's fourth suicide his nickname got changed to "The Terminator". The funny thing is, his name wizny even Jimmy.
  6. A bit of banter here....... "Two Soups"......real name Cambell Baxter. http://joebangles.blog.co.uk/2007/11/09/nicknames_glasgow_humour~3271139/
  7. New Cumnock won the Plook of the Plinth earlier this year http://www.urbanrealm.com/carbuncles/2012/The_Carbuncle_Awards_2013.html,now Killie gets this. East Ayrshire cooncil are doing a grand job. I notice that Ayr had been nominated for 2013 Plook on the Plinth. I wish it had won, get the cooncil off their arses to something about the place. A few others were nominated too. http://www.urbanrealm.com/carbuncles/2012/nominations/4/Plook_on_the_Plinth_Award.html
  8. Hallmark Hotel in Carlisle has a wee beer festival on this week(50 ales). I'll probably have a wee nosy at it Carlisle Beer Festival Thursday 31/10/2013 to Saturday 02/11/2013 Hallmark Hotel Court Square Carlisle 50+ real ales + ciders with Cumbrian focus as well as many ales + ciders from near/far
  9. Home brew is lovely. Gertting blootered oot the skull for pennies is just bang on. I'm more of a wine chap myself, but home made ale is marvelous.
  10. Jammy bugger. See if ye can get me one of them Green Caird thingies...... only kidding. I'm barred.
  11. An Ode Tae Morton The thread that keeps on giving, And Moore still makes a living. Jings, crivvens, help ma Boab, Somebody better should be in the joab. tadah
  12. I always seen cartoons in this sort of quality here. Good. http://youtu.be/ZbMDHCR9W30 Then I had the good fortune to see one made in Blu Ray. Amazing quality on full screen. Could be a Top 5 thread there, animations. http://youtu.be/UfEKBmE1yGA
  13. I watched this over breakfast this morning. Quite good. Multiple award winning documentary which hits cinema's in the US on OCT 25th. This is only 33 minutes out of 70 minutes. Watching it again right now. It's a wee bit Zeitgiesty mind you.... http://youtu.be/sl1sps0krDI
  14. This thread is Gold Bound...... I hope. Don't ever want to see it disappear.
  15. I'm almost 4 months off the fags, the nearest I've come to puffing tobacco products was last week in Andalucia, the wife refused to give me a cig so I had to go back to the room for more juice. The E-Cigs I'm on right now are wonderfully flavoured. Menthol, cherry, blueberry, aniseed and my new favourite....Cinnamon. Fantastic. Great to mix flavours and experiment. Nicotine content now reduced to 12%. Aiming for 0% nicotine by new year. I'll still be vaping when I hit zero though, now that I've found out a few pubs in the toon are vaper friendly. O'Briens being one of them. Rabbies is a No No. Feck them.
  16. EDIT: What's yer target beers this year? We'll get another blether again mate.
  17. Stoatin wather, am slightly burnt, free beer.Top Cat. Turn the heatin doon big yin.......
  18. Anyone know the rules on ecigs at airport security? Allowed or banned?
  19. Last year was my first and I enjoyed it. I like the look of the provisional Scottish Ales list. http://www.ayrshirebeerfestival.co.uk/scottish_ales/ Ayr Brewing Company saying they have still to confirm a 3rd Ale, don't think it will be Dr Hornbook though. I wonder if the prices published have to be adhered to? No Goose Eye from Keighley this year. Was my favourite last year.
  20. May pop along to this......depending on shift pattern. http://www.ayrshirebeerfestival.co.uk/?fb_action_ids=10200560372266750&fb_action_types=og.likes&fb_source=aggregation&fb_aggregation_id=288381481237582
