Asking medalists how their deceased relatives / coaches / pets might feel after seeing them triumph in what is probably the peak of any athlete's career. 'Oh, yeah, Grandad gave up half his pension to pay for my lessons, sold his house to pay for me to train in the US, took me to every event, cheered me on - even when his eyesight started to go. No, he'd be fcuking furious I won. I reckon he'd call me a wnker and spit in my face. What a stupid question, you absolute gimp.' | |

Most interviewers questions these days, especially football, are dumb as fk. It’s always a leading question too where the answer is clearly obvious before it’s even been answered. [Post edited 3 Aug 14:30]

Random irritations.. on 01:52 - Aug 3 by FredManRave | People. To clarify, not all of them, but the following two types which, really, fall under the same category; 1. Supermarket escalatorers: They'll be spending probably around 30 minutes, at least, walking around the numerous aisles of the supermarket, yet still insist on taking the escalator instead of walking up the 20 steps to start their shop. 2. Supermarket car parkerers. Those that insist on going round and round the car park in the hope of seeing a car pull out that is 10 meters closer than the numerous, currently available, parking slots, all just to save those 10 meters of walking. N.B. And don't get me started on the airport terminal escalatorers that have a 30 minute walk to their gate and choose to take the escalator and can't even be bothered to walk on it, causing a queue behind them of people (only slightly better versions) that do actually want to walk to get to their gate quicker. #walkman |
Here I am sitting on the outside ‘balcony’ of my ground floor apartment in family-focused holiday resort in Kos. We are situated by a crossroads in the pathways but people are so fkin lazy they have to cut diagonally across the grass to save themselves all of 20ft of walking and walk right past me while loudly talking or shouting at their kids.

Bolt's, I could live with, but some of them look cnts doing it! | |

Fernando Torres did a bit of this when he failed to live up to expectations at Chelsea after his 50m quid move. Changing his hair style and all that. At the time someone suggested that it was him trying to reinvent himself to somehow change his form. Dykes might just feel a bit unsettled because he's a striker who doesn't score. If he was banging in 20 a season he wouldn't fk about as much with his look. | |

Looks fun! :) I used to live (and grew up) in the heart of the Notting Hill Carnival. August Bank Holiday was always a 'mare but it was what it was (© Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink). Had one particularly bad time trying to get home on my motorbike after a weekend away. It was a particularly bad year for steaming gangs (which I wasn't aware of at the time, not internet in them thar days) and the square over the road from where I lived was used to kettle the gangs into. I had to keep showing my driving licence to every line of police and when I eventually got to within 50 yards of my front door I was refused through. Had to then park up around the corner (and hope my bike wasn't nicked or vandalised) and walk home, which I was then allowed through, and pick it up the next morning. Thankfully it was OK and not burned out. | | | |

My Sonos speakers can't work without an app or being Alexa enabled. The app was fine and they worked great (with Alexa too) then they did an upgrade in May which was so schit it has turned it into a useless pice of junk and however much I try I just can't get the Alexa to link up too. Why can't they just have a 3mm and/or red&white phone jack in the back and I can then at least plug them into something. Nooooooooo, has to be all fancy and 'wire free' then it doesn't friggin' work 'cos they fked up the update. | | | |

Absolutely. Had a bottle of water from Greggs yesterday where the bottle was so weak it kept collapsing every time I tried to snap the lid back on. Had a bit of a skirmish with it, eventually smashed the lid on with my spare hand, but the holding hand got the skin of a finger caught in its teeth and ended up with more blood down the outside than there was water left on the inside. Incidentally, how old is the bottled water at HQ, they’re still serving it with the loose top taken off! | | | |

It's a wonderful place. We just spent a week in a mountain village away from the tourist traps and it was brilliant. In fact, we didn't come across any other Brits until the 9th day of our holiday. That said, one of the most important measures of a foreign holiday for us is the prevalence of Chelsea shirts. I am pleased to report that none have been sighted so far. In fact, the only football shirt I can recall seeing on this trip is a Borussia Dortmund one. Mind you, there is a massive "shrine" to SC Bastia just behind one of the souvenir shops in the coastal resort we have now moved on to. | |
