Hedgecutter Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 News channels showing kids opening their exam results for the first time when they've obviously been marked out as being an emotionless straight-A student... ... except when one of the marks turns out to be a B and they go in the huff.

Cosmic Joe Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) Dow's is a real dive, but just too convenient for a pre or post match swift one. The Irish pub round the corner is much nicer, but a bit poncey, so I tend to choose Dow's when using Queens St. Central Station it's always The Horseshoe, although it can be a pain the arse trying to get served.

I know loads of people who pronounce it Bluerie-Band. There was a police cadet who got called Bluerie-Band Heid, he didn't like it and made people's lives a misery for years when he "graduated".

Shandon Par Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 My old cat enjoyed sitting on the road or in parking spaces, waiting until the driver got out to move him, then would saunter off contentedly, knowing he had successfully trolled the human. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 They're not on Just Eat for this area but it looks like I might be able to order from their app, I shall try it tomorrow. The only 2 that show for this postcode are Mario's and Richy's, both shite.Wasn't impressed. Home for a week tomorrow so I'll get my last good chippy before coming back down to work for the rest of the year [emoji25] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
