  1. When we were in holiday in Japan (20 years ago) we used to dare each other to buy the strangest order at 4am.

    I can remember buying a weirdo jazz mag, 1 apple, 3 grapes an egg sandwich (no crusts), medical cream (I think it was for spots, but it was just symbols) and some uncooked mince.

    Best but was that we had been swimming in a fountain just before so all my cash was dripping wet.

  2. It’s also my 13 year old daughter’s favourite band, I noticed she was downstairs watching tv tonight which is almost unheard of, it was someone’s special subject on mastermind. 
    My wife and me have zero musical ability so very pleasing when she asked for an acoustic guitar for Xmas and seems to be able to play it. 

  3. There looks to be a definite reduction in almost every team in the squad size, Dunfermline we’re very luck last season in almost no injuries, we therefore thought we could carry this luck this season but have be cursed. I think we will be missing 6/7 first choice on Tuesday which is horrible with a starting paper squad.

    However we don’t look unique, Arbroath using a keeper out field, Raith signing out of contract. Is it becoming too expensive to run a full squad in the second tier ( United not counting)

    There was a guy in probably his late 40s climbed in to hedge of the house across the road about 2am one morning. The owner shouted at him from the upstairs window and an altercation started.

    The guy was shouting abuse telling the owner to come down. He then went in to a maniacal scream shouting over and over again, I'LL GIVE YOU IT BAWS DEEP BAWS DEEP, BAAAWS DEEP BAAWS DEEEEP FUCKIN BAWS DEEEEEP BAWS DEEP etc. Not sure if it was a threat or a chat-up line.  He left still shouting it. 

    I see the guy about the town from time to time and he seems fairly calm.  Maybe just had a bad night. 

    Back in our old semi detached home that had private garden at the side and a communal grass in the middle I heard two guys coming out the hedge at the side in the middle of the night, I proceeded to open the window and tell them to get to f*** or I would be down in a minute to sort them out, that I had a large hammer!

    Yes I had been drinking and just gone to bed, only for one to tell me he was the police and he will pretend I hadn’t said that. Apparently some kids had broken into the village Post Office which also backed onto the communal area. Opps

    The Mackie's black pepper and haggis crisps were fantastic. I realised the other day I haven't seen them since the switch to Taylors but the website says they still exist.

    Eating them now and not sure if it’s just me but they don’t seem as strong flavour, pretty sure I bought them in Tesco.

  6. I watched the first two episodes last night and enjoyed them, he also had the mandatory shirt off scene to show he is a tank that’s had a Overfinch body kit added.

    Not quite a work colleague but someone a client hired as an apprentice roofer recently. The guy had a few choice incidents during his short time as an apprentice. His highlights included while being asked to hold the ladder while the qualified roofer worked on a roof the customer phoned his boss to report that instead of holding the ladder he was lying on the grass on his phone. He also phoned his mum to pick him up over the summer cos it was too hot to work and phoned in the next day saying it was supposed to be hot again so he wouldn't be in! His crowning glory was asking his boss how long his 3 month trial was and what sort of pay rise he would get after that time had passed. Needless to say he didn't get kept on! Our client also worded an advert for a new apprentice to the effect that if you can't keep off your phone don't bother applying. 

    We have apprentice at our work on the railway (track) and yeah some don’t get it that they’re actually at work!
    We had one who in the middle of a job announced he had to go home as his dad had just phoned to tell him it was snowing! Same boy also couldn’t make it in once as his boots were in his car but his brother had borrowed it.

    I do that when I'm drifting off to sleep, but not any other time. My internal monologue changes then too; it becomes a conversation of different people, none of whom are me. None of the conversations are about much, or make much sense. 

    Once I discovered that unclenching my hands when going to sleep stops these conversations, my sleep is now excellent.  
    Yes I understand there are major issues with this

    Surely a pass under the magnificent landmark of Cumbernauld Town Centre is required?

    I feel asleep (passed out) on the bus and woke up there years ago and genuinely thought I was in the CIS, I had no idea why I was there or what I had done.

    Perhaps if you invested in undersoil heating (when u had grass) as most top flight clubs do or should do then it would not have been a problem..

    If it makes you feel better to call me an idiot go for it. A lot of the times you would be right. 

    Does not divert from the fact that Livi invest the minimal amount they can in their pitch v other teams. As Pete rightly alludes to it is quite convenient given your shit run of form for this to be called off against a recently resurgent Ross County. 

    We have had our undersoil heating on the past few days and it hasn’t stopped our pitch getting 5 inches of snow on it!
