    Love it. Got a promotion yesterday. Didn't know what I was doing before. Now I just have more stuff going on which I don't know about. Been with the company for a month and this job I am now doing, you are normally meant to have been there for a few years. God bless the recession causing a...

    You doing some teaching work, Si? Yeah, means I can buy the "finest" range when it comes to the weekly food shop and can use fabric softener when I do my washing! Talk about luxury!!!!

    I'd be impressed with that if I had ever watched Trainspotting!

    To be fair, some of my best mates are coming down to London this weekend so I fully expect to wake up in Calais. Actually what is more likely is given the fact I barely drink anymore, I'll probably have 4 pints and pass out! But on a serious note. I really like the responsibility of the job and...

    Sitting at a desk, looking at supplier contracts and it just hit me. I am officially an adult now. Gone are the uni days of waking up hungover and carrying on drinking. I wear a suit, am glued to the work phone or emails, have a very good grad job and my weekend consisted of going to Homebase...

    Only one group fans can properly complain after that window. Us poor buggers who follow Newcastle. Seriously, why was Joe Kinnear hired? "Judge me on my signings" he said. Well what a c*** you are Joe! We get Remy on loan and that is it! Rumour has it that Ashley could be looking to sell up...

    Pffft, Inverness. Bunch of sheep shaggers ;) North of Scotland is alright for a visit once, after that it can get very boring, very quickly if you live there. The missus spent 22 years of her life living there, and we've already been in London for 3 weeks and she prefers it down here Newcastle...

    An old fart like me needs a bit of help. Found Cricket 07 somewhere and thought I would play it this summer to get me in the mood for the Ashes. Anyone fancy telling me where/who the best rosters and gameplay patches are, as I don't want to venture into THAT forum (I still have nightmares about...

    That's me just received my final exam results and I can now stick MA at the end of my name as I gained a 2:1 in History :) Didn't think I would get anywhere near a 2:1 at the height of the partying in 2nd year lol, but got there in the end and with ease! My full time graduate job starts in...

    I'm assuming due to the third world nature of Australia, the increase in price was more down to the fact you were using a luxury commodity, i.e. a bottle

    Nothing beats being up at 5 and watching the sun rise over the North Sea. Just wish the buildings opposite me weren't there to spoil the view :p You can also see the fortress that is Pittodrie Stadium, a scene of many a massacre :p

    Ashes Cricket 2013 General Discussion

    Excuse me Matt, but I believe EA '07 is the best game on the market. Nothing gave me more satisfaction then watching AI batsmen score 8 runs off 125 balls and then bowling them all out with a spinner and the batsman popping up catches to short leg! Now that was realism! On a serious note, why...
