I thought Clive did alright with the names - he even said he had been on a dutch website (i bet you have, boy!) to learn how Fan-EYE-ack should be pronounced.
Oggy just bores me, i'm afraid.

The telling thing about CWR's lack of professionalism was at half-time when Clive said that the latest score in the USA-Sweden match at the women's world cup was 0-0. The penalty shootout had finished about 15 minutes earlier - the numpty producer should have passed that info on (irrespective of how disinterested some may have been).

Why don’t the EFL get every player to record how their own name is pronounced and have a database for commentators? Every club has a social media team that could record that and upload it

Suspect that the BBC budget cuts mean there’s a lot less staff and a lot of inexperienced, therefore cheaper, producers being used. Clive gets a lot of stick but when you listen to other local radio coverage you realise we’ve got it pretty good

Dirty bastards who come and leave their bin bags in your bin. If your bin is full, go to the fucking tip.

He came and left stuff in our bin at about 10pm last night. So I’ve taken a look, and right at the top of the bag is the address it’s come from. Fool. Someone is gonna have a messy doorstep later…

I would say there may be circumstances when that might be acceptable. If it is bin day, their bin might be full, yours might have some space. I would rather it went in mine than on the pavement or fly-tipped somewhere.

Bollocks. This twat lives at 100, I live at 21. Learn to pack your bin or go to the tip. I have my own rubbish for my own bin.

Can’t you tell I’m irrationally angry? Seriously though, they’re having it back when I get home.

Keep the bag tied and stick it on his doorstep. Seems fair enough to me.

Matter of opinion really, but nobody is “dumping rubbish all over the street”.

Also the lazy bastards who never put there bin outside of their own house but put it front of someone else's, then leave it there for days after it has been emptied.

Put your bin outside of your fucking house, not mine!!

How old are you now? I was always told half your age plus seven is an 'appropriate' gap.

The annoying thing in this day and age is that even sounding out if she is interested in you (ignore the age gap for a moment) is SO frowned upon in the workplace. If you work in an industry where people are from similar backgrounds, work closely together for long hours and have little opportunity to socialise outside work (other than the dreaded dating/shagging apps), work is the best place to meet your life partner - but you run the risk of getting sacked if you even ask them out. I really do not understand how people are meant to meet nowadays. I'm glad i found my best friend, soulmate and life partner a long time ago, but i feel sorry for those younger folk who haven't yet.

One reason I miss working in hospitality (in fact the only one). A lot of people the same age/background and a much more carefree attitude to meeting up and going for drinks after shifts/outside work hours. Very easy to meet people.

And in their gardens. Yesterday it was literally a drum and bass version of the old nokia ring tone.

Basically I want an EU law that if your music is shit (high bass, low quality) then devices won’t play it above 30%

Debt collecting agencies who don't bother to check if the person they're demanding money from is the person who owes the debt and then ignore all evidence to the contrary.

It's happened to me four times now at two different addresses. Have yet to receive an apology or even in some cases an admission that I have never owed the money.

From what I can tell from the financial advice pages it's becoming more and more common.

I moved from the home I'd lived in for 15 years because the new neighbours insisted on playing utterly shit music at all hours, then argued loudly at 3am every other day waking us all up. It's horrible when you live next to people who have fuck all consideration for others. Luckily we landed on our feet and moved to what must be the nicest street in the world, but I feel incredibly sorry for those who don't have that option.

One of the previous owners of our house was a nonce and thus a registered sex offender. He fled to Ireland from what we can tell but we keep getting all his mail, including UK bank cards, serious debt repayment letters etc. We keep calling them up to stop but 4 years on they haven’t.

My concern is we get a debt collector rock up even though we haven’t anything to do with it.
