you not a fan then?

 

i'm of the opinion that he is VASTLY overrated, to say the very least.

He is the dullest, most charisma-free, automated soundbite-regurgitating sports droid I have ever seen. I'm sure he's a great driver but he has absolutely fuck all interesting to say about anything at all. I can't stand him.

That's it. After 35 years of avid following I have decided that F1 is officially a load of shit.

 

I have turned it off in favour of doing a pile of ironing. If a diehard like me prefers ironing to racing then I can't see how it has more than five years left in it.

 

 

World Endurance Championship is where it's at. With 4 classes on track at once then there is usually something interesting happening somewhere on the circuit.

Also things like a broken brake disk or knackered throttle cable aren't an out of the race situation, but a chance for an epic run through the field.

Finally Corvette V8 sounds

When F1 is struggling to seem interesting in the 10-minute highlights you get on BBC News, you know it really is f*cked. Formula E can be quite entertaining, though I'm really not a fan of street circuits. The European Rallycross is good fun - because there's such a dynamic to the ways the cars corner. Bodyroll, pitch and dive and dirty great sideways moments. But Le Mans this year was a revelation. Hugely entertaining. I watched a huge amount of it. Great commentary team and great action.

Woke up this morning. FFS its lashing down and blowing a gale AGAIN just as it has been every single flipping day since I got home.

Got referral letter regarding my respitory problems.

 

On phone for 20 minutes just waiting to speak to someone - when I get through I am given a choice of appointments at different hospitals.

 

Only problem is NHS bod cant book any due to technical problems. A complete fucking waste of time.

 

When Charlie was born the NHS staff were superb. However, where I've been concerned it's been utter wank.

 

It's times like this I can see why the government wants to shake things up.

 

In relation to formula 1 - I would sooner look at mud. Hamilton may be a good driver, but as a personality how can you possibly compare him to the likes of James Hunt, who as well as a ladies man, was also a man's man.

Bathroom saga update #3.

 

Put new bolts on toilet seat and get it tightened up and safe.  A few hours later, extractor fan stops working.

 

I think there's only the window blind and the radiator left now for a full house of breakages in that room.  *goes off to find out if anyone died in there in its history*

Did Bub2006 live in that house once?

 

It's rained on me most of the morning at work.  Went to Asda after for some shopping and it kept on raining...

Got home and unloaded and the rain seemed to have stopped, so I took my dog out.  She hates rain, won't go out in it, you have to dodge between the showers.  While we were out, guess what, the rain came down harder than ever.  We got thoroughly soaked.  I'm sitting here in my pyjamas now, because at least they were dry.

It's because the government shook up something that was working pretty well (not perfectly, but what does?) that the NHS is in its current state of FUBAR.

 It's mounted on the bulkhead. Right at the fuckin top on the inside. In the way of it is the body control module, the plastic frame that holds a load of relays, the accelerator pedal, a big bit of aluminium that supports the dash and about 200metres of wires.

 

Employ a Victorian urchin child to climb up and attach the wire - they have lots of experience climbing chimneys so should find it an easy job.

I knew it was too good to last. Spent two quid on a new wiper blade for the Kia yesterday and now it's blown a headlight bulb.

 

Korean cars just aren't what they used to be.

What is it with bald blokes who insist on growing big bushy beards? It looks like their heads are on upside down.

On the plus side the fridge is fucked, the water softener is fucked and the clock in the living room is fucked.

It's a blessing that my Golf is as rotten as a pear, my Astra van could do with a new turbo, front discs and rear shocks. The Land Rover needs a rear cross member.

Oh! I forgot to mention Christmas is nearly upon us.

 

I actually feel a bit better for getting that off my chest.

Me too. Apart from the ironing obviously.

 

I've been an F1 fan for as long as I can remember but just can't be arsed with it now. Dull racing, largely dull drivers and on the occasions when I've decided to give it a chance and watch a live race on telly, it's been utterly, spectacularly dull.

I really stopped watching after Murray walker retired. It just doesn't interest me anymore - and I had watched every race up until then. Seems to be a procession of computer controlled machines now rather than a show of driving skill and flair. I think Bernie eccleston is to blame- he keeps fiddling with the rules and these new tracks are just like computer games with no atmosphere.

Aye. The poison dwarf couldn't give a toss what we think, because it's still one amazing cash cow. I wonder if he actually watches the races at all?

I'll say one good thing about Lewis Hamilton, he manages to make David Coulthard seem like the life and soul of the party.

Crappy music, try listening to Heart all day.

Tomorrow, to mark the 1st of December they're are going to have a full hour of "All your favourite Christmas songs".

Lewis Hamilton was perfectly nice until he got rid of his dad as manager, then his ego seems to have exploded.

Kinky girl broke out the champagne, plied me with it and then put on sexy clothing from ann summers. It was obviously a cunning plan of hers.

 

Dead Kennedys. Sorry love, but you know I'm a lightweight when it comes to booze :(

dead kennedys ! not heard that expression before but I laughed when I figured it out :)

Can't think of the last time I watched F1, it's absolute dog turd and has been for many years.

 

 

Loads of excited local people because the 'Christmas Guiness' wagon is coming. I appreciate it's been talked about before on here, but it's actually sad that people are looking forward to a BFO mobile advert.

Many years ago my mum came in when watching it on tv, and said "who's that man? His daughter is very tall". Yes, well.... I did correct her.

Fed up with the self-righteous gobshites on Capital Radio in the morning. They seem to have a vocabulary of about sixteen words and they ALWAYS play wither Ellie Goulding or Taylor Swift. SHITE. Unfortunately the reception is piss poor around Cumbernauld so its the only popular misuc station that I can listen to without the radion constantly self seeking. I have therefore taken to listening to BBC Scotland on the drive to and from work as you seem to be able to get that wjere all other stations are long lost. I have actually found what a philistine I have become and the topical and cultural articles are interesting and keep my mind off the tailgaters.

I think F1 started getting shite the day 12 people wheeled their cars out of a garage and decided to race them round a track. I liked the rivalry and personalities of Nigel Mansell and Michael Schumacher but I can't ever remember it being entertaining. I always loved BTCC years ago.
