Used to play cricket with him a long time ago. There were a few stories about his 'private life' being quite interesting to say the least.

I wish she would hide it lately as she is going through a "special lady moment" she's making my feel quite used at the minute, I sat under the shower the other day and had a little cry.

There was a video of his mrs doing a strip dressed as a cowgirl, a relief manager played it on the big screen once
There was a few other rumours too

How they got a pub like the Wallace is beyond me I wouldn't trust them to run a bath never mind a pub

All this 'Black Friday' nonsense. Black Friday is an American event, and is the first Friday after Thanksgiving (another American event). Why to UK companies (and citizens) do so much copying of American stuff?

Those bags where you can re-seal, so you have to press them together at the top.

They never work though!

Public Vaping again.

Saw at least 3 yesterday who were swaggering down the road trying to show everybody they had an ecig thing, then having a blast and blowing the smoke out as much as possible. Are people that dependant they have to have them in their hand and try to make some sort of statement so everybody knows they have one?

I work with a few people who use it at their desks at work. They take a puff and blow the smoke under the desk so the boss can't see.

Vaping seems to deliver hardly any of the hit of a real cigarette so they feel the need to constantly use it.

It's not so much the actual process.

It's the way people have to have it in their hand and draw attention to it to say "look at me, I vape".

This sort of wanker.



Or one of those ones that are massive.

There are loads about in Coventry too. Just rows and rows of the oils and flavours they buy from China dirt cheap.

Same as letting someone through in a car and giving them the palm of thanks when they don't do it.

There can't be many things more annoying than a dog barking when you are trying to work, study or sleep. It really does something to your nerves. There's one near me that barks for hours and hours on end. It's owners go on Holiday and leave it chained up in the back garden.

That's not on, you need to get on to someone about that. I worry about leaving mine for long enough to go to a game there's no way I could leave him and go on holiday.

Dogs that bark all day are bored, at the very least they should be having someone come round to walk them during the day.

I know, there used to be one whose dog used to shit on the verge in front of our house. Fucking disgusting animals. I'm not very keen on the dogs either.

Can't stick NFL but turned over to watch Dallas kick a field goal to tie then Intercept and kick another to win in the remaining 3 minutes (took about 15 minutes) that was alright I suppose.

Detroit then?

Makes a change to see a game played til the end usually shaking hands with 22 seconds still to go, pathetic.

Each and every to their own, but I bloody love it!! So many games go right down to the wire.

I would also guess that 99.9999% of football games are well over with 22 seconds to go too.

Football these days annoys the hell out of me. American football just keeps on enthralling me. So much more edge of your seat to my mind.

I have seen the Redskins play now on TV at least 5 times this season and there hasn't been one single dull game.

Pretty much every City game has been dull. Would say that usually you can maybe 2 or 3 great games a season down at the Ricoh, whereas with US football it can be week after week after week.

Can understand why some don't like it, but then at the same time I have heard people say it can be far too stop start, stop start and yet they like cricket and rugby and they can be incredibly stop start too. And with cricket it can be dull for hours on end.

I like all 3, American football, rugby and cricket.

What put me of NFL was going to a game live at Wembley the 2nd one they had New Orleans v San Diego, I could tolerate it before, my dads a big fan of the sport so have grown up with it on TV Sunday evenings.

But going live killed it for me, players hanging around unable to play due to adverts, atmosphere was fake and tedious.

Maybe in the states going to a game there with the whole pre and post match build up/down it may be different.

I went to two Wembley games and loved them both.

I timed a few rugby penalty kicks a few weeks back and they were nearly two minutes each time out. Also timed the gap between each ball in cricket and it can be as much as 30 seconds each time.

Yep, would be so much better without the added breaks, but then the money wouldn't be in the game to make it the spectacle that it is.

No I agree, Cricket's Cricket my favourite sport but we all know expect the time of it.

Rugby you're right the scrums especially are becoming a farce, I was at Cov the other week and the oppo kept collapsing and it was reset 5 or 7 times took 3 minutes, something needs to be done about that.

And you're right place kicks should have a 30 second clock on them as most kickers take over a minute.

I think as sport on the whole becomes more high pressure and money at stake the game has suffered in terms of less action and ball in play.

You are so right about less time in play in sport, cricket not enough overs being bowled and over long drinks breaks and don't start me on football goalkeepers taking ages over goal kicking and long substitutions drive me crazy.
