Lost the last part of my post. He then appears to have blocked Phoenix Nights being released on streaming services or even repeated that often. Petty cunt.

Not disputing Kay is all about himself but Dave Spikey is a terrible comedian and had a lot of success on the back of Phoenix Nights.

The next time you see this shed it will be lit by arc lights, have a white tarpaulin outside and a grim faced newsreader saying “the police fear that despite the horror of what they discovered today, there may be many many more bodies to find. It’s going to be a long night, back to you in the studio”

My guess is come Saturday when they actually go on sale there'll be fuck all left for genuine folks at £35 but loads on resale sites for £350. 

100% nailed on.

 

There's a place in hell for profiteering bastards. Usually right next to Tories and working-class Tories.

Fuck off. I like his sitcoms, but his stand up puts my teeth on edge.

Agree. Superb shows,although Phoenix Nights had co-writers to help him along. Neil Fitzmaurice was one.

It’s fashionable now to hate Kay’s stand-up, but for a while there he was comfortably the best British one for observational stuff, especially if you grew up in the North West. 
 

My first date with my bird was a Peter Kay gig in Manchester.

Amazon Prime Video. Buy some better content, for fuck sake. I only go on there for documentaries and they put up ‘new’ ones which turn out to be 20 year old episodes of Dispatches.

Why is it fashionable to just think he's a pretty average/poor stand up but an excellent comedy writer? Maybe it's just how many see him. A bit like if Ronnie Barker did stand up.

Ordering something because you are off that week so will be home but for some reason if Arrowxl are delivering it once they recieve the package you have to book another delivery slot with them which now takes it into next week. So a 3 day delivery from my initial order to 8 days. Fucking shite way to run a service.

You’re putting words in my mouth, J. 
 

You don’t have to worry about being fashionable.

Going years without realising how easy it is to get a trade card and now being able to skip into trade-only places and pretend I'm a man who a, knows how to build shit and b, measures everything mentally in mm or foot only without a measuring tape. 

 

Other day realised that B&Q offer up to 15 cuts for free rather than the 5 for public plebs. Just been taking in random bits of wood and getting them cut into smaller bits for storage. Flashed by trade card to everyone and anyone just to show I'm a class above them.

There’s some good stuff in TK Maxx, problem is you’ve got to spend an hour browsing through the shite to find it. 
 

I got a boss Adidas Spezial t-shirt from the one in Cambridge a few weeks ago.

When i look at job adverts and they have included the bank holidays in there holiday entitlement. Dont try and pull a fast one.

I’ve been working away this week. Spent a couple of nights requesting a ‘table for one’ in a restaurant aligned to a Premier Inn, near Whitehaven. 
 

Normally I don’t mind this, gives me a chance to people watch without having to speak to people. 
 

Last night though, there was a bollock on the next table, eating his meal whilst watching something on his propped up phone. No headphones and at a volume that meant all those around the prick had to listen to whatever wank he was watching. 
 

I’m annoyed at him and all of us around him for not chucking his phone in his soup.

You should have leant over and asked him to turn it up.

At least the chocolate will be decent. I had the boring ones without chocolate, when I was a kid.
