Off Topic Close Season Distraction

I'll be honest, I've never listened to him. Got a good starter for 10?

So did Bonamassa bring out his first album when he was 12?

 

Most impressive!

 

Never heard of her, but very good singer. Bit of a mix of Janis Joplin & Maggie Bell. Think I've heard better covers though, tbh.

 

Theresa May should do a cover of this one. (Apols to Neil Young, but I prefer PJ doing this song).

 

Found another post I enjoyed ...

 

A few more light-hearted moments to keep us going .....

 

I was scouting this match for Millwall & think I may have found some players in the Thistle team that will improve their team & bring their average right down to about 50.

Would be alright for the millwall youth team,but way too young for the first team.They have to be on pension subsidized wages.

 

You wonder where tv companies get the ideas from. But tbh, I'd like to see this as a series. Could be hilarious ....

 

Jock are you a professional burgler? as most of your posts are middle of the night mate

 

LOL. Just a retiree who's still as distracted as he was as a teenager, but doesn't have his ma to give him a slap & tell him to get to bed. Was always the same, but knew I had to get up for work in the morning, so 2-3am used to be my limit. Don't even look at the clock now. Still got to get up early to take 'er indoors to Pilates, shopping, and all that crap too.

 

Is there an english (or better still Leeds) equivalent of this?

 

Nope that's me - Glory spotted it several weeks ago. Not been caught yet

 

Popped up on my FB memories. Still love it. The Celts are so different when it comes to International matches ...

 

Mellow time

 

Not so mellow

Now this I really love. Wish I had the skills. So far, my record for keeping 'Microsoft' on the phone is 14m 30s. You can hear them get very excited when I tell them I have 14 computers in the house, but my favourite is telling them that they are all AppleMacs (which I've never seen in my life before), and that only one app runs on each, and I only have access to this because I work for an investment bank & the security won't allow me to access the operating system etc. etc. Getting excited at the mention of 'bank', they wheel over an AppleMac 'specialist' (in Microsoft??) to help me fcuk up my computer. So far, I haven't learned any new swear words, but they try hard to teach me. Love it!

Another day I was bored, so took a call from an Indian chap called Nigel (haha) who insisted that he was not selling, but only doing a survey. I apologised & told him that I wasn't who he was looking for as I had just moved into this house & taken over the phone number. Fell for it, didn't he. So we went through the survey, and every question ended with 'would you object to <company name> getting in touch with you about their products. I emphatically said no every time & reminded him of this regularly throughout the call. Now one thing I didn't mention was that I told him that I, the new householder, was a Mr Biggun, with a Christian name of Ivor. Cue a few weeks ahead & Blue Chip companies started calling my number, asking if Ivor Biggun was at home. They still didn't twig, until I told them that they had been defrauded & were receiving leads that were non-existent, and requested that they report this up the line, in an effort to stop this despicable industry. Hasn't worked though, has it? But it was fun - even the Blue Chip calls.

Anyhow, I digressed hugely. This is THE man .....

Had to make sure I didn't pop this in the wrong thread for fear of WW4 .....
