Like to see some puppies? Na na na na... Na na na na" Won't get that nowadays. Flaming woke Guardian reading Corbynistas. Ah, the halcyon days of offensive football crowd chants. I can remember one occasion in the 1970s at Ibrox when cheerleaders were marching round the running track for some reason, to be met with the Neanderthals in the covered terracing belting out "singin' goan get it up yie while yer young" to the tune of "She'll be coming round the mountain when she comes..." And no, I wasn't singing it! I'd be astonished if a number of these dudes aren't on a list of some sort. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were offensive songs not compulsory at Ibrox back then? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meadowbank Thistle Brake Club had a few near the knuckle ones Used to get all the "Edinburgh AIDS" insults so the songs in reply were "Share your needle with the boys" "Spit in your bovril" and "Come on over to my place, Hey you we've got a virus, We've got AIDS and Hepatitis, why don't you come on over tonight" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityDave94 Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Finding I'm being more wary of people wandering aimlessly back and fore while on their mobile phones as if the shopping center, the High Street or just in front of a doorway, bottom or top of an escalator is their living room so they don't have to pay attention to anyone or anything else around them. Walking past you never know when they might suddenly turn around and bump into you. Are these people turning into zombies? I'm seeing this more often now than ever. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Adverts (or films, or anything) that use song but cut out parts of it to skip to the recognisable bits. There's an advert for hotels or something with Don't You Want Me that cuts out the two lines with the key change before the chorus and it sounds so wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxRover Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Why the f**k can’t they put the Mr. Kipling’s Brambly Apple Pies in a plastic sleeve? They do it for their other stuff, and it travels just fine…but the damn Apple Pies dry out in transit to the U.S.! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesP_81 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Electricians saying they'll turn up then not even bothering to say they can't make it. 2 weeks and 3 sparks later still trying to find someone to wire up a new hob. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must be starving by now. More importantly, how hard can it be, just a few coloured wires? A 5-minute DIY job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 5-minute DIY job. I recently replaced a DIY fitted oven that previous occupier had installed. Was only a plug in job but he had a high power oven in a standard socket. Luckily the house never burned down but high wattage stuff needs a bit more care. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like that. Anyways, there are only 3 colours so even with a random guess the odds are pretty good, Let is know how it goes (if you can). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf I will pretty much try my hand at anything but apart from minor appliance repairs electrics are a no go for me for this exact reason . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty much like that as well. I will replace light fittings and switches, plug sockets etc and I have added new lights in the garage, but I'll draw the line at anything more than simple and at high amp things like cookers. I got a new under the counter fridge last year and being lazy now I paid for them to install it, mainly because I couldn't be bothered messing about with changing the cupboard door on it. They pulled the old fridge out and found it was wired directly into the wall rather than being plugged in. The fridge had been in since the house was built and it was the first time I'd seen the back of it. The guys had to change the fitting on the wall for a normal plug socket to allow them to install the new fridge. So what should have been an easy job turned into a more complicated one, and I was glad I took the lazy option for that one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
