Years ago I was working up near Gairloch and staying in a local hotel. I had a couple of pints after dinner and the lass behind the bar was lovely and very chatty. As a happily soon to be married young man, despite the temptation to stay I went back to my room before I had more drinks and made a tit of myself. A wee while later there was at a knock at my door and it was her. My heart just about burst out my chest, then she informed me I'd paid with a fake 20 This is when I realised life isn't like the movies. 21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could have potentially been like a type of film had you said "That's all the money I have. Is there any other way I can repay my debt? *Wink*" Edited March 6 by 19QOS19 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still remember being in a pub in Durness when there was a tidy Czech barmaid. When I asked her tongue-in-cheek "where's the party tonight then?" at closing time, the whole bar sharply perked/sobered up when she replied "in my bed". Turned out she justed wanted to go to sleep after a long shift. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlipperyP Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 This is very petty. Coat hangers, everyone knows how to use them, correct? Well, no. My son hangs them the opposite way round. So you have to take it off by going under the rail. Rips my knitting. What's the f**k wrong with kids nowadays. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scots that get a hard on for English fitba in general need watching. Almost as bad as the Bundesliga bams. I'd honestly rather watch a Lowland League game, given the choice (no jokes about East Fife and next season please). 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's these weird gloryhunter types everywhere. More and more Liverpool and Man City tops are cropping up. It's actually becoming rarer to see younger folk in Utd tops as they've been shite for so long and the other 2 have been on the up. I don't like any of those sides but having grown up with Man Utd being the biggest gloryhunter club, I'll always dislike them most. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Kunts who go mental when you say you’d rather watch Newcastle United v Aston Villa than go and watch Pumpherty Rose v McDiddy Thistle in the Scottish U18s Lowland West Regional local cup qualifying round. Those guys do my tits in. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend who was calling this a "jumbo sale" in his 30s. I'm still not sure he believed us when he was corrected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leith Green Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 The phrase "Oh My Days" as used by - apparently - all young people, and some not so young now. Just. f**k. Off. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
