    Audio books.  Those celebrities who dont narrate their entire book.  They reel you in with the first couple of chapters then hand over to a ghost narrator and then they maybe come back for the last chapter.

    I'm looking at you Stuart Broad.  You may be a cricketing legend but thats as cheeky as fuck, you lazy too posh to read scoundrel :)

    Currently enjoying 'Andrew' Flintoff's new book and he has read every chapter.  Proper grafter is Freddie!
    Guy who can't be arsed to read a book complaining about a guy who can't be arsed to read it to him. ;)
    Fair play fair play.  However, in my defence, I just don't have the concentration levels to physically read a book.  I listen when I'm doing something else, like working, commuting, driving, gardening.  To physically sit there and read in silence, god I haven't enjoyed that since I was about 12-13 years old.  Audio books are a god send to me! :)

    ‘Sir’ David Beckham. What’s the world coming to FFS
    Was always going to happen. I've no problem with it personally. TBH, I'd rather him than the string of football administrators who've been granted the honour.

    About 2 hours ago, I thought to myself 'that' really bloody annoys me and I must post that on the thread when I log on later.

    2 hours later, I can't remember what 'that' bloody is for the life of me.  Even more annoying!

    Yeh why give a knighthood to an ex-England captain, one of the most capped players ever, a global ambassador for the sport, icon, and a charity fund raiser for the last 20 years
    If I ever meet him I’ll be calling him Sir David

    Couldn’t disagree with you more.
