    Caught an interview with him, might've been Desert Island Discs. He mentioned the time he lied about having HIV / AIDS to his family and friends "to get attention", back in the late 80s.

    Laughed when I see him on an episode of Would I Lie To You. That whopper never come up....

    In the name of sanity, can someone please, please, please explain to me why, many many years after the arrival of BBC 1 HD, can they not broadcast the regional news on HD???!!! I don't even particularly want to watch it, I just want to watch the news, the weather and then Match of the Day without being interrupted midway through by a blood red screen accompanied by an annoying musical accompaniment. It's like being stuck on hold on the phone for 5 minutes. 

    Is Points of View still on? I want to send Anne Robinson an angry letter.
    Absolutely this. And even if they can’t, why not just show London instead of a blank screen?

    His team won 'Celebrity' University Challenge. Afterwards my other half said, "How can someone so intelligent belive in religion?"

    Gogglebox...the people on it and the voice over bloke.

    I know you can switch off but it was just ‘on’ earlier, I had no choice but to watch it and hated it.
    I can’t stand the bloke that looks like a rat. Pete from Blackpool.

    It doesn't annoy me, so much as make me feckin angry.
    I've deliberately not included the photo of the almost dead girl.

    Thanks for the spoiler. Still watching it on catch up...  :(;)

    Have to agree with Mrs Abrahams though.

    That the monitor on my desk, that had stopped working, miraculously fixed itself just because the IT support person had turned up!

    I didn’t think it could get more annoying than Derby being referred to as Frank Lampard's Derby County last year. Step forward Wayne Rooney’s Derby County!

    Steven Gerrard's Rangers also fits into that category.

    Utter scum. I'd rather see them get some of their own medicine, but not get rescued. Despicable act.

    New members in my gym last night who clearly don't want to be there. If you are going to use a machine and stop someone else from doing so at least look like you are interested and keen instead of sitting on it updating your Twitter Feed.

    Thing is, even if the dog has messed on the new carpet, chewed up some furniture or whatever, there's way and means of dealing with it, last resort being a trip down the local re-homing centre (not that I would do that myself), but to do what they done takes some depravity that most people can't comprehend.

    January is to gyms what December is to pubs - regular users have to put up with a sudden influx of nuisance visitors who don't understand the etiquette and just get in everyone's way. They'll be gone by the start of February, when they realise that you can't get a 6-pack from just sitting in a gym.

    Always try get up and go at 6am this time of year, find the annoying newbies don't fancy that sort of time of the day.

    Arguments starting everywhere as to if it’s a Belgium or a German Shepherd ffs not only on CL, it happens in ShepLife as well 😂😂
    At least she’s safe now.

    Back in the days when they "gave a meal man appeal" they crumbled easily between thumb and forefinger.
    These days they are like a small brick, which after a struggle separates into 3 or4 glutinous blobs.

    Technical objects that don't work until the person due to repair them turns up. 

    My Sky dish cables have been playing up for weeks, it finally gave up completely at the weekend and the box would not 'initialise' at all, nothing but a blue screen. Got a local engineer booked, arranged to work at home, hoping it would be an easy fix. He turns up, switches on the box and everything works fine ARGH! 

    Now I am left sitting here waiting for the thing to go wrong again, knowing that the fucker will start working as soon as the engineer appears.

  • Going into shops at this time of year on the possibility of grabbing a bargain. The rail says "Up to 70% off". There is never anything on there at 70% off, and I suspect there never was. A bit of a con.
