    Ben Stokes

    It is a confusing case inasmuch you've got him defending the gay couple, then him taunting and throwing a fag end at them,and the bouncer saying Stokes was looking for trouble etc. But rob is right in saying it should have been dealt as a drunken brawl,and not an affray. But Stokes is still...

    Ben Stokes

    So Stokes has been cleared in court of affray. I thought he would get done for assault after watching the incident on TV. He did seem to go over the top, and looked like he wanted to do some damage. Is it because he is a "celebrity" that he's walked away not guilty ? I can't judge him seeing of...

    Who did you really dislike but now like?

    He would be same age as me now 64. I reckon I've got two more years before I can retire ? Probably pop off on my round before then !

    Eaken and Foster are a joke and are the Laurel and Hardy of the airwaves. You're just waiting for errors and slip ups, if you wait long enough just like buses one or two will turn up. Yes they may be nice blokes, but they get worse week by week, so a change is needed !

    Needles ?

    I should have titled this Phobias instead ? I fear deep water as I nearly drowned as a kid, when a teacher at Walsgrave junior school, thought it was clever in pushing us nervous swimmers into the water, and standing looking when a few of us panicked and struggled to get out. And snakes give me...

    Needles ?

    I think you're twisting what I wrote ? Its only a light hearted thread, but you've turned it a bit serious. I've cried when I lost my parents and my son, and consoled friends and family when they've done the same. I just find it alarming to hear that a grown man would faint at a small needle in...

    Are you being sarcastic ? What's mental health got to do with what I've written ?

    Needles ?

    Had to go to Walsgrave hospital this morning for a routine blood test, think when you get past the age of fifty you have to go even if you feel okay ? Full with people as usual but only waited half an hour so not long really. The nurse asked me if I was okay with needles ? Replied yes I'm fine...

    Worst Ever Concert ?

    Saw them again at Wembley on that Zooropa tour. It was okay but not as good as that Milton Keynes concert. I reckon U2 are a great band and Bono does get a lot of stick especially for his political/religious views, but I prefer to just listen to their music. I also saw Simple Minds at Milton...

    Worst Ever Concert ?

    The U2 gig was called The Longest Day concert. And it certainly was as it pissed down all day ! It ended up as a mud heap. Great music though but ruined by morons !

    Worst Ever Concert ?

    Taking the piss ! Another one springs to mind. A group of us were at Milton Keynes bowl to watch a young U2 on their Blood Red Sky Tour. Great concert though, but ruined by tossers lobbing drinks about,and surging forward knocking people over. I wasn't the friendly bloke I am now back then,nor...

    Worst Ever Concert ?

    I was there that night too. Sorry for throwing the piss ! It was more like being at a match than a concert. Loads of scraps going on that night, it was like being in the West End back in the day !

    Worst Ever Concert ?

    We've all been to see our favourite bands and had a great time. But what about the concerts you've been to and you wish you'd never bothered ? Two gigs that come to mind are one in Leicester early 90's when me and my then missus went to see Ozzy Osbourne. He came on stage pissed up and late, and...

    Best Job/Worst Job

    I had an interview about ten years ago at Hereward College, as I had been doing some voluntary tutoring, adult literacy/numeracy in community centres. The head tutor got me the interview there, telling them I'd be ideal for a job with Hereward. Anyway I had the interview, and got told...

    I am actually living in a block of flats in Bell Green precinct, You wouldn't want to come round in the evenings with money on you now ! Shit hole. Glad when they knock the flats down, which hopefully will be sooner than later.
