Gonzo's Erection Thread

Born in Bradford (the one who's pit City's ground will one day fall into, not the one in Yorkshire), 10 min walk from the city centre.
Have never lived more than 5 miles from said centre.

 

know I am being picky but pretty sure it was before 89/90

 

It was, but his thinking is good.

 

Love Bradford! Not a beautiful city but had a "romantic evening" there many years ago when I took a lady friend there to see a game and rather than take the train back to Liverpool decided to explore the city instead. Those were the days when I could pull!!

 

Politics divides, football can do both, but music can unite!! So can the Olympics. 2012 was a feel good year with the Olympics in the UK.

 

The Bradford I speak of is not a city, it's a small suburb of Manchester nestled between Droylesden (Clayton which was even smaller), Beswick and Gorton.
It was my world for the first 10 years of my life.

 

I did not know that!! Presumptions that one makes. Did you know that there is a place called Portsmouth, not on the South Coast, but nestled on the Yorkshire/Lancashire border in the vicinity of Burnley?

 

Nope, but it doesn't surprise me.

 

Just had a quick look, it's classed as Lancashire (just)

 

Buenos Noches!!! El vino es bueno aqui!!

 

Enjoy it my friend, I am on lager and it's ok for me

 

Are you are rugby fan Diego? On my home board (Southampton) we discuss anything from Grand Prix to tennis, even rugby, so join us this summer if you are interested. We use the General Sports thread.

 

League only, I find union a bit slow.

 

I live in Mallorca! Come out sometime with your partner for a week! Summer is busy but autumn is good.'

 

My partner has been my closest friends partner for the last 18 years but I may take you up on the offer alone one day

 

Did you get the wrong thread or have I missed something

 

we, as a society, have effectively splurged $3tn over the odds into bricks and mortor. My two-bedroom semi in York is valued at £200k - ****ing ridiculous. No it's not, an d for Christ sakes, a three bedroom semi in the south of England is NOT worth a friggin million quid -, how did this happen? No wonder people can not afford to pay a fair proportion of tax -there's people on 70k, a bloody good wage, who are petrified to pay 50% tax, but they , (ME!) damn well should do, For ffs, our national effort is going into some La La land of bricks and lawns

Put up general taxation and invest in our kids, not middle-aged squealling over interest rates.

 

The property ladder is child abuse - discuss.

 

It's a ****ing con that screws our kids - I'm so angry. We owe trillions as a nation , to... what? Think about it, for Christ's sake - we've been utterly conned, and our kids pick up the tab of every pound that could have been invested in the future that is splurged on a ludicrously inflated property market. This has to stop.

PS, I'm not drinking but I am still on post-operative medication.
