The bloke on the can has a big tool at least.

Having pasta at 9am strikes me as strange but not unpleasant. Not my first choice of breakfast but I'd be fine with it. 

 

I guess there's a reason why he has pasta for breakfast, otherwise it wouldn't be relevant here

Did the Old Trafford tour once, abd they told us they to have  Jaffa cakes at half time at Utd.( in the Ferguson days, maybe still do and other clubs do it too).

I tried it with my Under 11s having lost 8-0 the previous week. This time we lost 11-0, so they never got them again!

Me and Archbishop Desmond Poopoo* had an afternoon nap. I felt grand when I woke up.

 

*Is one of our Cockapoo's many nicknames...

Finally got the summer wheels and tires on the modern after almost 6 months on noisy studded winter tyres.

It is so quiet and nice to drive now and can finally hear the noise of the 3 cyl engine again.

Got some reduced granola. 350g box.

It says this on the back. Fucking  8 servings 😂😂 

It'll be gone in 2 bowls.

If you missed the early 1980s, you can relive it without the infinite energy required for a Time Machine by simply getting on an express train from Gothenburg to Stockholm.

These seats are fabulous.  And very comfortable, even for my 21-Stone, 6’2’’ hulking mass.

There used to be a Citroen specialist round the back of Chillingham Road metro station, maybe connected to that. (If it's still there, I left in 2000 - now I feel old)

The public shouldn't have access to Police records (for instance Roxanne)

Rummaging through the random rack of spray paints in the Range, failing to find Mitsubishi A19 silver for the Shonky Shogun, and saw what are possibly 2 of the most AS colours ever?

Rusty Gusset Brown, nice.

I'm always impressed how the Hycote stand in the Range is still stuck in some sort of timewarp, it's very useful!

Found my dream house and one of the most amazing sights in Europe!

[Coprolalia]

Contracts exchanged on new house. Double garage and 3 car drive.

Friend heard of my issues losing my car storage last month. Contacted a friend of his friend, who has found me a nice, small, dry barn to rent 2 miles from the new house for what amounts to beer money. 6 months of the barn (will fit 2 cars) is the same as one month of the commercial car storage.

I once flew from Shannon to Manchester but you had to change planes at Dublin. The first leg was on an inbound overnight flight from America. It was awful , like walking into the aftermath of an all night party with everyone sleeping in chairs , snoring and farting. (Lots of farting on planes due to reduced pressure).

On top of that , as we took off , the cabin was filled with the smell of fuel and I was convinced we were going to crash. 
On the up side, on the leg to Manchester , I was sat a row in front of Alex Higgins. The bar service was brisk to say the least.
