if anyone is interested in parachuting out some blue-sky thinking outside the box, i am looking to touch base and move forward on the subject of putting a cap in the ass of that utter prick George Osborne. i thank yew.

honestly, i don't know what you're talking about, did we have a row on here about something a while back? i honestly cannot remember anything, are you perhaps confusing me with somebody else? (i didn't inadvertently get tangled up in an argument between you and Luka, did i? if i was talking...

ouch. i hear ya Andy :slanted: similar set-up w Alty, at bottom of Blue Square Premier w one point from six games. sixth year in a row we have one of the division's three smallest budgets, lost our top two players/scorers over the summer, and remaining one of the few semi-pro teams in an...

yes, big shame that someone opposed to Wikileaks may try and make hay from that, a terrible business all round. also a shame that a putative molestation charge, which i gather remains open, might be caught up in all this. i am sure Julian Assange and whoever his accuser is would like to see the...

Liverpool and City have both got tidy groups in the Europa too, i must say, up against some decent old names.

not at all T :D Phoenix are definitely one of the top breweries from round here, some beers so deliciously dry and hoppy it's unbelievable. Arizona is an old stalwart. they make an absurd amount of beers, they seem to be a festival favourite. the local CAMRA recently had a bit of a (polite)...

good beers IMO: Marble Pint. ludicrously flavorful for 3.9%. Lagonda is the name of the Marble IPA i like, but they may do others for all i know. they do an awful lot of specials. the Arran brews intrigue having never had any; Skye brewery is good stuff as a rule. Porterhouse Plain. Bell's...

oh i'm told Manchester's Marble Brewery beers will be behind the bar at the rather nice Cask, Pimlico (FAP write-up). Marble do a great wide range of stouts, porters, light beers, bitters, proper IPAs, more unusual flavours and so on, probably one of the better Manc brewers. that said, i must...

liking Slothrop's station report. station pubs or bars w a good card? (i'm going to ignore decent boozers that may be very near a station, such as the Bree Louise or Doric Arch near Euston's front door, or the Bulls Head opposite Manchester Piccadilly, to concentrate on ones in the actual...

Awesome's lovely Aztec-flavoured chart ^ reminds me i didn't choose to pack any chocolate.

if we're dialing it down in terms of number of items required, i'll prune my list to the Northern Exposure boxset, a bottle of French white, and some salty Greek cheese.

yup, and Lucas is no Mascherano obv. did you see City's owner? born in 1970 i think, looks about 12. must have good moisturiser out in the desert kingdom. fresh faced.

does this include any Strapping Young Lad?! liking the answers thus far, You's food & drink mouthwatering, although i think Sloane got a very attractive proposition right there...

food: tacos de lengua, a plain sourdough loaf, a slab of feta drink: a bottle of Weller bourbon, a bottle of Viognier, a case of De Koninck music: 'Dusty in Memphis', Ali Farka Toure 'Radio Mali', our very own Benny's Grimy Garage 1999-2004 mix books: The Year of the Death of Ricardo Reis...

six points off Chelsea last season, four off Arsenal, two off Liverpool (though it should have been three at Anfield as i recall, gallingly). none off United or Everton, also gallingly. (trademark embittered Manc priorities.) i'm sure Roy will whip them into shape, but, by god, a poor Liverpool...

a friend of mine, her brother is the administrator/head honcho for one particular posse of chuggers (they're somewhere in the Manchester area, poss' Mcr city centre, i forget), and although i don't know details of what goes on, i know she has a low view of his job. he doesn't go out chugging...

Taggart getting fined a grand for not speaking to the Beeb yday, they should take away his wine and horses, hit him where it hurts.

heartwarming stuff. Lewes is a really good day out. wall to wall Harveys.

has Barton shaved yet? Prem - Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal, Pool; going down - Wigan, Blackpool, West Ham CL - Real Liga - Barce in other Prem news, Birmingham to place pretty well perhaps (M Derbyshire a good signing, right, plus they have a solid back line), i think Everton can have a good year...

:( cheers Sloane, yeah, address when you have it, nice one
