Mook

We went shopping to get the wee man a pair of jeans on Saturday to wear with some of the smarter tops people have bought him, we were in Mamas & Papas & found these jogging bottoms that have been coloured to look like jeans, quite possibly the best invention ever. He looks like he's wearing jeans but in reality, he's in joggers, ideal for people who can't be arsed wearing trousers to the pub, I've posted a picture of them below & you can see my jeans in the background for comparison.

It's a good shout but this one is the best...

That's nearly as bad as me, I bought a coat that looked a bit like this one when I was steaming in New York two years ago & am terrified of wearing it...

One of the good things about Nando's is they don't have people outside forcing you to go in & eat at gunpoint. Regarding the place itself, it usually costs the wife & me between £20 & £25 for enough food to fill us up & unlimited juice, I don't see many places you can sit in, eat & drink for under a tenner a person so it's not all that unreasonable in this day & age. If you don't like the food or think it's a rip off, don't go. I like the food, it's pretty quick, you can take the kids in & it costs about £12 each, it's not exactly a fine dining experience but it does for when you're in town & fancy some spicy chicken.

There's nothing quite like having to explain a joke three months after the event... Vlad, it's a picture (I assume from Coronation Street) of Ken Barlow being arrested, which someone has photoshopped Stone Island logos on to in order to make it look like they were scrapping outside of a F**tball match (Stone Island clobber is notoriously worn by F**tball hooligans). I've taken the liberty of writing, 'Eastenders away in the cup' next to the picture in order to add some context around the whimsical concept of Coronation Street characters fighting Eastenders characters because their two teams have a fictional cup game against each other in Walford.

In Nando's funnily enough. I've not seen this one in the supermarket yet, I don't think you can get the black bottle one in the supermarket either (could be wrong) though so I don't hold out much hope for this one unless there's a big demand for it.

No, Vlad, it's the Stone Island logo.

They've got a new sauce, an African one called Vusa, fucking hell, it's hot.

I watched Captain Fantastic last night & thought it was brilliant until right at the end, which was far too sugary for me. 6.5/10. Watched Our Idiot Brother on Saturday night, pretty dull comedy which was worth watching for Zooey Deschanel in her tights & Elizabeth Banks. 5.5/10.

Delete the thread and make a new rule that anyone who posts about how many winnable games we have coming up is banned, sent back in time and drowned at birth. Fucking hell.

Loved After Hours, watched it last night and was still laughing about a couple of bits in it after I went to my scratcher. Rosanna Arquette reminded me of this girl I used to fancy, which was a bit unnerving at the start though. Mean Streets has just started on BBC2 by the way.

I once worked with this bird and was fairly good pals with her, nothing more than that in it, anyway we were on a work night out once and I was bored so decided to spice things up a bit by asking her if she masturbated. She never spoke to me again, literally. I thought it was a bit of an overreaction to be honest.

Surely there's a happy medium where you put inheritance tax up, especially for the wealthy and use the money for the greater good. I agree with the OP in principle but that sort of financial equalilty is very idealistic and could barely be further from how our system currently works.

I was engrossed when I watched the film but afterwards I was quite pissed off about the way it portrayed music, the whole point of music is people getting together and being happy, being good at your instrument is part of that, not a competition. I went to music college myself, had a great time and met some lifelong friends there. As you say, it was more like a film about athletics or something, where being number one is the primary concern and often a lonely one.

His hand was bleeding in a really weird place too, not a place a jazz drummer's hand would be bleeding and not a place I've ever seen any drummer's hand bleeding. Agree with everything you say there.

I'm obsessed with drumming and didn't think an awful lot of Whiplash, the last thing it seemed to be about was music or drumming. I can see the attraction in it though, JK Simmons was brilliant in it.

Welcome to the wonderful World of working with women.

It's the album before Surfs Up, you get both albums on one disc.

You're thinking of Bootylicious.

I'm sure you can get a two for one with Sunflower for less than that. Both good albums. Edit - Just checked & the twofer (brand new) is £6.95, one left in stock.

Has anyone else had impure thoughts about the scall bird?

I agree that it's tedious but the English (& Welsh) public manufactured a perfectly good reason for them with the ludicrous referendum result last year. I'm not pro-independence myself but getting away from Westminster & another 20 odd years of tory rule is looking like the lesser of two evils to me.
