So it's Halloween.
Am I on my own as I detest this event?
Morons walking the streets with licence to cause as much trouble with no fear of repecussions.

It used to be quite fun when I was a boy (FAR too many years ago now!!!)
All the razmataz has come across the 'pond' and hyped it up, so that it has got ridiculous. :steam:
 
Roll on 'Black Friday', so we can all spend money we can't
really afford on things we don't really need! :headbang:
BRILLIANT. And it's the Boing Day sales 7 weeks today!! <yikes>

On another topic -The Football Association has written to a number of non-league clubs warning they will be relegated if they do not make their dressing rooms larger. [HASHTAG]#mindlesslypredictable[/HASHTAG]

There's a house up the road which has gravestones and all sorts of other Halloween paraphernalia in the garden!! <doh>
Edit - I expect by the end of the month, several houses will be looking like Blackpool Illuminations <yikes>

I had to see my doctor this week to discuss my ongoing issues and mentioned that the only thing that eased my back pain was Tramadol and I am allergic to it.

He suggested that I should try Pregabalin which is used mainly to treat epilepsy but was successful in controlling pain.

It works well on my pain but I could sleep for England <yikes> this morning I woke up at 5.45 I'm normally awake by 0400 at the very latest.

I’ve seen several instances over the last few days of YOBS seemingly taking delight in destroying First World War memorials. Don’t these YOBS stop to think that their Grandads/ Great Grandads could easily have been among those millions who were killed/injured and without their sacrifice, they wouldn’t be around to desecrate these memorials??? :emoticon-0121-angry

Sadly not JMF, they are just mindless, thoughtless morons <doh><grr>
 
So Trump cant make a Remembrance Day visit to honour the War dead,because it was raining.Good thing these brave soldiers didn't have the same attitude.

What a grade 1 twat he is.

I hope there's more to this story than Trump simply saying no because of the rain. Surely he's surrounded by advisors... isn't he? Especially given the amount of crap he's given the NFL "kneelers" about how it disrespects their armed forces.
