I read the first part of your post, and thought that's very honest but not particularly funny...then it clicked what you meant. :emoticon-0102-bigsm Great story
I thought the same...that's honest. :)

We were allowed to drink whilst working. Very dangerous. Especially when I'm throwing glass bottles with metal pourers on the end of them. in fairness, never dropped anything, it seemed to put me in a zone when working. Legless afterwards though!
 
Piers Morgan set up a crowdfunding page, saying that if he raised £50k for Comic Relief, then he would wear a Spurs shirt and have his photo taken in it.

Look who donated...

He stands sixth from the left in the back row with his arms folded in a group shot of the football team after they played a charity match.

Stuart Knight, who went to school with Ajao [Khalid Masood], discovered on Friday that the teenager he had known as a bright, sport-loving and popular pupil, had become the Westminster attacker.

Knight, who runs a butchers in Tunbridge Wells, said: “I am really, really shocked. He was in my class. He was a smashing guy, really nice chap. The picture of us in the football team was after we did a 24-hour sponsored football match to raise money for the sports hall.

“We would have been about 14 years old. Everyone got on with Adrian, he was a lovely bloke. He was a bright student, he loved sport. He was in the rugby team.”

Knight said Ajao’s family – his mother Janet and stepfather Phillip – were a great family.

Ajao, who took his stepfather’s surname after his mother’s marriage, left Huntleys school at 16 and Knight lost touch with him.
 
That reminds me... I sold my car last month :emoticon-0106-cryin:emoticon-0106-cryin and I wonder what the new owner thinks of the albums that were loaded onto its hard drive :emoticon-0111-blush

From memory:

The Jam
Luther Vandross
Phil Collins
Prince
Ska Mania
Solid Soul (compilation of oldies, Aretha, Etta James, James Brown, Curtis Mayfield, etc)

and

.... Kylie's Christmas :1980_boogie_down:
Wow, cars with hard drives! Was it original spec or retro-fitted? Mine doesn't even play mp3's :-(
 
Saw this this evening on a local church. Thought it was a little unfortunate: You may have to say it a few times before you see it.

I used to live just down the road from there. It is not a particularly soulful area, so not really doing a great job.

I used to work almost opposite this church, even been to a wedding there. Some of the congregation appear a little strange.

They have had some strange/funny quotes over the years.

My fav is

Feeling Suicidal?
Let Jesus Help You.
