They finally got the point that a comeback like that is virtually unheard of. Spurs were on the television, 3-0 behind and I said “Of course, that kind of thing isn’t going to happen twice.” I would just like to take this opportunity to thank you for saying that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Madrid hostels and hotels are fair taking the pish for the Champions League Final. https://www.booking.com/searchresults.en-gb.html?label=gen173nr-1FCAEoggI46AdIM1gEaFCIAQGYAQm4ARfIAQzYAQHoAQH4AQuIAgGoAgO4At_-1OYFwAIB&sid=14ab651384362a1039267b666504f15b&sb=1&src=index&src_elem=sb&error_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.booking.com%2Findex.en-gb.html%3Flabel%3Dgen173nr-1FCAEoggI46AdIM1gEaFCIAQGYAQm4ARfIAQzYAQHoAQH4AQuIAgGoAgO4At_-1OYFwAIB%3Bsid%3D14ab651384362a1039267b666504f15b%3Bsb_price_type%3Dtotal%26%3B&ss=Madrid+City+Center%2C+Madrid%2C+Comunidad+de+Madrid%2C+Spain&is_ski_area=&ssne=Gairloch&ssne_untouched=Gairloch&checkin_year=2019&checkin_month=5&checkin_monthday=31&checkout_year=2019&checkout_month=6&checkout_monthday=2&group_adults=1&group_children=0&no_rooms=1&map=1&b_h4u_keep_filters=&from_sf=1&ss_raw=madri&ac_position=1&ac_langcode=xu&ac_click_type=b&dest_id=176&dest_type=district&place_id_lat=40.4169937517017&place_id_lon=-3.70396094699629&search_pageview_id=a6eb402fff1b0061&search_selected=true&search_pageview_id=a6eb402fff1b0061&ac_suggestion_list_length=5&ac_suggestion_theme_list_length=0#map_closed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to get it all the time. It could be like swallowing glass. The right antibiotics soon nail it but chloraseptic spray can help. Or gargle warmed up brandy laced with lemsip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman Hessian Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 folk who submit fatuous (though outwardly helpful) responses to questions which are clearly asked in the hope of getting a definitive, accurate answer - example from the DRFC message board: anyone who's seen the place on TV could make a wild stab in the dark at "around the 14,000 mark" with zero prior knowledge, no understanding of the the specific segregation arrangements for the match in question or access to any sort of verified information whatsoever - why bother putting forward a no more educated guess than the OP would be able to have made for himself in the first place - just, why ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair a quick look at Wiki would have given them the exact number. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Can I add to this people who ask questions online/in a whatsapp group etc questions that are incredibly easy to find themselves, far easier than posting in whatsapp and waiting for a response. Case in point - what's the football fixtures this weekend? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Case in point - what's the football fixtures this weekend? Dumbarton fans have a wee facebook group and someone has just asked "does anyone know if the sponsored shirts can be collected now?". Just pick up the phone and ask the club yourself. I find that there's a growing number of people who will do absolutely fucking anything to avoid speaking to an actual real human with their real voice, so just ask questions in their safe wee groups. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A poster on this very forum used a newspaper headline that was something like "owner jets in" to go on about how the newspaper is a joke, "how else would he get here? I hate that I give them £25k a year for advertising". Some sehz minter, that one. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spud131 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I see recently that Amazon have added a part that you can ask questions about a product and other people who've bought the item previously can help you....except its full of people (presumably old and pished stained) saying things like 'sorry I can't help you, I didn't buy this item'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that has been there for a while now. On the amazon echo item page someone has asked: "My amazon echo won’t play Jim diamond hi ho silver ?" and the first reply is "Seems your speaker has better taste in music than you." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
