Was at Old Trafford today again.

They had 'sun-lamps' on the pitch all day - must have a massive leccy bill.

Thanks for that info, Walter. Didn't know you were so historic - did the Franco/Prussian war in History.

@smorgs,

I feel like changing my name to von le Coq.

Mornin'. They're filming in my Jobcentre today! So I can't hang round here - I've got extra slap to apply...

I'll let you know when it's going to be on (or not - if they don't film my good side).

Ready for my close up, have you vaselined the lense?

@McTag,
Ah, but then you'd have to live up to it!

Certain expectations come with a name like that.

Well--they have to film somebody and it might as well be you as anybody. It's only showbiz. Entertainment for idiot box addicts showing what a wonderful job civil servants are doing to get us noses to the grinder.

How will we know which is you? Will it be the one with the biggest area of pink chubby flesh on display? And no putting on the lah-di-dah. That's cheating.

I heard a bump. I looked round and he was on the floor with one of his claws fast on the seat of the chair. I picked him up and I knew right away he was a goner. I rushed him to the vets and they pronounced him DOA.


I did some pull-ups on my bar ten minutes ago and I felt quite like that.

They say you should exercise to stay healthy. But on the other hand, a lot of joggers die. The missus would be well pissed off if she found me, albeit well-toned, in a heap in the garage.

@McTag,
Take it easy Mac. Pull-ups are far too strenuous for beginners. For the first three months you should do some simple PT just enough for mild panting.

Somebody showed me a forum today on which it was claimed that Hitler instructed the Luftwaffe to leave the North-West and particularly Blackpool alone. It seems he was intending making the NW the centre of Nazi Britain. He had Preston in mind as his provincial capital city, Lytham for his elite troops and Blackpool as the R&R playground.

The poster claimed to have seen the archives.

With his eugenics programme you would have been on easy street Mac. smorgsie on a requisition form.

@spendius,

I think Hitler and his merrie men gave eugenics a bad press.

I passed a lot of individuals in town today who would have been prime candidates for any sterilisation programme worthy of the name.

And what's that supposed to mean, spends, you fokker?!

I agree though...

Don't go at it like a bull in a china shop Muckty.

You've got to ease yourself into exercise - take me for instance, I have a long walk t't pub across the road, then I exercise my gob and biceps (knife and fork), then I do some pelvic floor exercises, by trying not to piss myself laughing, then I have a fag, and then I go back to work, protecting the public purse.

All in all, that keeps me in tip-top condition and a proper fit bird.

And you've grown your hair and learnt the guitar! You'll be buying a moped soon, and a full set of leathers...

Think twice before you get a tattoo though (smorgs forever).

Anybody want to hear about the press thingy?

@McTag,
I know what you mean Mac. The "bungled and the botched" Nietzsche called them.

But where would the Wayne Rooneys have come from? And the Charlie Drakes. And the northern slappers.

Nothing but Marghanita Laskis and Princess Annes. Perish the thought.

@Ticomaya,
not really

we had press crawling all over the town centre yesterday interviewing anyone who had any opinion about michael barrymore. yawn.

I did 34 miles today on the Trek. Got a flat on the way back.

On sunday max speed was 31.7 mph! Very pleasing passing stationary vehicles and hearing engine pitch change because of the doppler effect. And I'm pretty sure 31.7 mph is well on the way to the Einstein relative constant speed for light or 'c' as we bikers call it. Jeez I am absolutely ****** now and off to bed.

But I have to say Utd should have capitalised on Milan's pathetic first half. Sorry Internationzionale
