Re: Today I'm angry about.....
Michael Vaughan was born in Lancashire, not Yorkshire. Despite what the Yorkies say, he is no more a Yorkshireman than Gary Keedy or Glen Chapple.thebish wrote:ohjimmyjimmy wrote:Range Rover drivers.
Don't know why, they're just really smug bastards.
Michael Vaughan drives one...
He should act as an inspiration to us all in these times of misery and despair. And he broke the exciting news that Wanderers are about to sign Michael Owen.

I will still believe it even after he's signed for someone else.
Michael Vaughan is not to be doubted.

See, whenever I hear Michael Vaughan I just think - deary me, what a dreary individual you are, Sir.thebish wrote:this has been quite a long (but enjoyable) weekend - which has meant a couple of long car journeys for me - and consequently I have found myself trapped in the car with Michael Vaughan...
I'm finding it hard to put my finger on why the humourless git irritates me so much - but he does... I like Agnew and Tuffnell - I can listen to them for hours on end with no irritation - but 5mins of Michael Vaughan and I am ready to rip out the radio and deposit it on the central reservation of the M25...
I suspect it is his total inability to be anything even close to self-effacing or to laugh at himself... is this a Yorkshire trait? cos I feel exactly the same about Boycott - except at least the others have got to the point where they can just take the piss out of him - they don't do that with Vaughan...
Whenever I hear Boycott I just think - oh feck off you tedious, self-important, annoying, Yorkshire c*nt. I fecking hate you! Which, as I'm sure you'll agree, is actually quite measured.

May the bridges I burn light your way

he and Tuffnell filled a whole rain interval reminiscing about tours of south africa...
the pattern went as follows:
Tuffers would tell an amusing, often self-effacing,story
Vaughan would tell a variant of this story:
"ahhh - those were the days - not like today - it wouldn't happen now - I remember when me and Thorpey went to the bar and we must have had two pints each - and it was quite late - and then we walked back to the hotel - ahh - it was such a laugh - those were the days when you could enjoy the places you visited and see a bit of the country...
... and the next day I scored a ton!"
repeat for HOURS,,,,,,,

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
Today, I'm angry at myself. Having bought a rather expensive suit for work, I found that this morning, I could only fasten the waist button with some difficulty. After a weekend away, i seem to have piled on the pounds. The gym and salads are calling me.
Uma mesa para um, faz favor. Obrigado.
Re: Today I'm angry about.....
I'd had my fill of 6-music (the hip-hop show had come on!) - R5 had a load of wank about the olympics - R4 was "any questions" and it included 2 people who were guaranteed to wind me up - and R2 - well it was R2 FFS!!!ohjimmyjimmy wrote:and yet...you sat there for hours listening to it
plus - they kept saying the covers were coming off and it had brightened up - thus offering the promise that the cricket would be back on soon!!

Content yourself with the thought that they are halfwitted enough to have paid a f*cking fortune for something that looks like it belongs in My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding.
Which, incidentally, I don't watch.
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

I have to say, personally, smug or not, I've never seen the attraction of the owd Chelsea tractor type motors - that extends somewhat past Range Rovers.

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
We have one of them 4x4s, but only for a safety point of view. The driving here is really bad and if you're driving a smaller car you get treated even worse by other drivers. It is normal for a car to go from the outside lane and go straight across 6 lanes with no indication, or even looking sometimes. They want that exit and that is it. They think twice, even if for a split second, about cutting up a bigger car. The road layouts are terrible and cause some of the behaviour. Essentially, the bigger the tank you drive here the better.Worthy4England wrote:I have to say, personally, smug or not, I've never seen the attraction of the owd Chelsea tractor type motors - that extends somewhat past Range Rovers.
We get about 20mph out of ours, so it isn't too bad for petrol. Even so, it is only 25p a litre and government are talking about reducing that as they think it is too expensive
