Good isn't it......Three times it's done me in since I started last night - listening to it in bed, on the train this morning and just before lunch today. There's some specially effed up people out there. Can't wait for the train home.

I listened to that on the tube on the way in. Holy crap ... I'm sure people thought I was some sort of nutter. I nearly gave myself a hernia trying to stifle my laughter.

For anyone else who wants to join in the fun ...

Couple settle case after apartment raided by mistake.

The story didn't make me smile but this line had me laughing out loud.:

Mr Donald had just come out of the shower and was brushing his teeth when he ran downstairs to find a gun pointed in his face.

He was told to put his hands up and drop the "f***ing toothbrush". :lol:

That someone called MorganWHU has commented on Marlon Harewood's Instagram feed.

Just says "**** stadium" in relation to MH saying how good it was to be back at the Olympic stadium.

Is it too much to hope that this is Morgan of KUMB Dutch lesbian notoriety?

Ha!! Cheers Whitey - thinking back to that thread really made me chuckle! :thup: I don’t think an author could have written it better ... he set the scene, built up the story slowly .... and then bang! ....or not as it turned out!

^^ That was a truly magical thread :lol:

Heard my son on the phone to his girlfriend last night, she is a student and deeply rooted in Labour. My son and I talk a little about politics but he is as the same as I was at that age, earn money, have a good time. She was pushing & pushing him on politics and that he should care more, he should vote for Labour for various reasons, her voice getting louder, he basically went meh....then she put the phone down on him. I walked past and laughed and his reply "Don't think I'm getting any this weekend" strangely proud :D

Finding out that the train was changed from a 12 carriage to a 8 carriage, only for the train to overshoot it's stop and the doors stop right in front of me.
Meaning that I would get a seat after all.

Love it when that happens. There's some **** that gets the train every morning and he always pushes in front of me like it's his divine right to get a seat. Train has overshot a few times and he's ended up standing.

Can't help but grin inside when he's standing there glaring at everyone. :scarfer:

Made the mistake of listening to that on the train. I've come to the conclusion that I can't listen to Gossipmongers on the way to work after that clip.

I've sent in a few tales of woe to them from some recent "life experiences". That's as far as I'll go.
