    My daughter having PE classes at school with the legend that is Bob Bolder. 

    I remember him doing training at the Charlton summer schools when I was a kid. And keeping for penalty shoot-outs, so it has also made me feel old!

    I do, but there's not much better than flipping over an album to listen to the other side. ;)

    Walking to the Red Robin pub today there was a squelch as I trod on something soft and very slippery. My foot went from under me but I managed to stay upright. I then looked down at the offending item - I have never been so pleased and relieved to see a squashed pie.

    after Charlton losing yesterday and Scotland losing this morning, Hearts finishing the weekend with a win in the Edinburgh derby has cheered me right up

    Going for a walk and tracing a shape on a map.  I've done a few that were planned in advance, but this shape of Great Britain was completely by accident:

    My mate Sam who is staunch animal rights and sells ornaments and various other nic naks on FB and EBay just sent me this............I make Marion correct but she really should read the advert correctly first. 😂

    I think Marion should have gone to Specsavers. In fact, your mate might be able to sell the idea to their ad agency... ;)

    The West Ham fan who complained on Twitter, about the Palarse fan who threw a flare onto the claret coloured AstroTurf possibly burning it and should he pay for it. Being told, he probably did pay for it, just like the rest of us.

    Getting a 7 letter word watching Countdown while Dictionary Corner & the contestants only manage 5. The word was cageful, I know I have a sad life.

    Getting the all clear after having endoscopy up the old chap. Genuinely thought it was curtains for me over the last few weeks. MRI scan in a week or so, but that's just a formality by the sounds of it, and then back to normal.

    Ha, I'm the same,  hence the bit of buck passing. No worries.

    if you are intelligent enough to go to a decent uni and you have anything about you, you don’t need to tout yourself at a train station...

    Agree, but I think the fact he is, shows that he has a lot more than any Uni can teach him, and to be honest, I don't this the University education is the main thing that shines out with this young man.

    If you need Uni to blag a job, you obviously don't have much about you already.  

    University  can support an application but shouldn't be a requirement IMO.

     I'm quite well thought of as a Business Analyst but never went to Uni.

    I've also never failed to get a job offer off the back of an interview either.

    Only i can change my life, no one can do it for me...

    Asks people to take photos and share on his behalf because printing 4 sheets of A4 is easier than reaching out to companies yourself.

    Agree with this an all, but the fact the bloke in the picture has been to Uni, it should be reflected on his "adcert" surely?
