Re: What are you watching tonight?
For 8 years, at school & Uni I had a summer job driving a fork-truck (which, if you have to have a summer job, is about as much fun as you can have) loading bog rolls at Sterling Mansells, just by where the Reebok now is.Worthy4England wrote:The worst day was when half of a "years supply" of Andrex turned up. Couldn't shift for bog rolls.
There, we could buy, for £1, a pack of 96 rolls per week (one full pack). So, over 8 years my family never needed to buy a bog-roll. A mate who worked with me was the same, except one year they ran out a couple of weeks before he started back. So they bought a pack of Andrex, entered their comp &, like you (unless it IS you !?!?!) won a years supply.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

My nana does them all, and has done for years. Only thing she has ever won was a Spam hamper.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
A company that I used to work for ran a 'Win a Ford Probe' consumer promotion. One day at the end of a meeting we did the draw. Carried out in front of the cleaning lady that had become our ad-hoc independent witness (in that she worked for OCS rather than us) the first, and as such the 'winning' entry was drawn out of the box. The 'winner' was based in Yeovil, our office was in Wilmslow. To cries of "Well I'm not driving the fecking thing down there", subsequent entries were drawn until we pulled one out from a bloke in Crewe, who came and fetched it for it himself.

In between keeping an anxious eye on Blackburn v Liverpool I watched Trevor McDonld's "The Mighty Mississippi" documentary. Fascinating stuff.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Have heard Masters champion, Bubba Watson, described over the past couple of days as being a 'Happy Gilmore' type character. Having never heard of Happy Gilmore I looked him up. Is the film worthwhile? I'll add it to my LF list if it is.
