  1. If you ever wondered why folk from Dundee talk shite, it's because they eat shite.

    The Food Ratings website linked to in the comments makes for interesting reading: http://ratings.food.gov.uk/authority-search

    I just discovered that our favourite takeaway was listed as 'Needs Improvement' this year :(

    Anyone that's ever gone on a food hygiene course will never look at food outlets the same again. Some of the pictures of places with lovely clean exteriors and horrific kitchens that you wouldn't keep pigs in...*shudder*

    Worst part is that they aren't allowed to tell you where the local authority took the pictures :wacko:

  2. Stuck in the house yesterday with a raging headache that had been building all week, so no Hertz game for me. Our internet connection dies at 2:45pm and doesn't come back up until about fifteen minutes after the Scotland game has finished. Radio Scotland's coverage of virtually every club game in Scotland consisted of an early confirmation that the games were taking place, and practically f**k all else until time for final scores. Also, more than four hours of, "Dad, is the internet working yet?" while I cower in the dark.

    :angry::angry::angry:

  3. Yes definitely do that. Now that the Police are involved they'll obviously over look someone assaulting one of the parties involved in this traffic incident. :rolleyes:

    Go to the station with her, let her tell them what happened, how he admitted that it was his fault etc etc. The idea about Asda providing any cctv footage is a good one but would they just hand it across to a member of the public?

    The police will ask themselves; worth pointing that out to them. Although I'd be surprised if they haven't already.

    Get a wriggle on though, as who knows how long they keep the recordings.

  4. There's yet another fly whizzing around tonight. I've not seen a spider since she's put them in but that's not to say I think they work. I've not even asked how much she forked out, I dread to think! If someone said to her an open bottle of water keeps them away she'd probably do that, as would many with an OTT fear of spiders I'd imagine!

    Tell her they're repelled by the smell of semen.

    There's bound to be a website to back that up.

  5. My missus has recently bought some stupid plug-in's and put conkers in the house to prevent spiders coming in. Last night there was a fly whizzing around for ages; give me spiders every day of the week. The worse thing they do is make a web which 9 times out of 10 isn't that big or noticeable but obviously effective enough to stop those flying b£stards coming in and fannying around the tele!

    'mon the spiders!!

    The plug-ins do f**k all that repels spiders so, if they've disappeared from your house of late, the only explanation is that she's eating them. Also, conkers are well known props in satanic rituals, so I'd be pretty worried if I were you.

  6. Kids on scooters in supermarkets. Parents, control your demon spawn.

    Someone must not have told them that the aisles arent actually the Monaco grand prix.

    Theres a time and a place to have a childs chin banging off your balls, but when you're trying to do your job or youre browsing the tins and condiments section isn't one of them.

    :lol: Hiding-in-plain-sight-type post IMO.

  7. Im feeling quite low and sad and have been for a couple weeks now and can't seem to be happy and confident

    I believe that P&B's antidepressant of choice is alcohol. Or the BRALT, but only at certain times. I understand November is currently scheduled for maximum effect.

    You'll feel better soon, don't worry *strokes hair*

  8. Enter The Void - an American drug dealer living in Tokyo experiences aspects of the Tibetan Book of the Dead after a drug deal goes wrong.

    This is definitely a cinema film, and I kinda wish I'd seen it in that environment, as it would certainly work better as a sensory experience. Forget about narrative, because there's very little and what's there is poor and obvious. This is all about the neon backdrop of Tokyo and the inventive drug hallucinations, which brought to mind Ken Russell's Altered States. That said, the film is almost three hours long, and is interminably dull when viewed on a small screen.

    Ghost Rider - a young motorcycle stuntman is tricked into selling his soul to the Devil in exchange for becoming his supernatural problem-solver.

    I can't stand Nicolas Cage, so I avoided the hell out of this, but it has a great deal of comic value for the patented 'Cage Hysterical Freakout' scenes that litter the running time. I like to think that these are just shots of Cage between takes, just being himself. Sam Elliott's presence amusingly highlights Cage's lack of charisma, while excellent PG use is made of Eva Mendes' assets. The film itself is fluff, but is made more entertaining by the silliness of the plot, so it definitely qualifies for a bad movie night. Shockingly bad CG too.

  9. My granny came from over by Aberfoyle and, to my knowledge, never set foot in Clackmannanshire. For some reason, she used to call me Tullibody when I was a young hatchling. I never knew that Tullibody existed until I randomly ended up driving through the place as an eighteen year old. Luckily I wasn't driving when I saw the "you are entering..." sign, as my mind was blown :o

    Sadly, my gran was long dead by then. So many questions.
