Guinness n' Rollies 2: Off Topic Chat Thread

D'Agger

Enjoy Galway bud, hope Newcastle at least set themselves up better than they did last week - they played with a very high line at the back I thought!

Have Championship Sunday and I'm fairly tired from work & training this week so resting up big time until then, out on the razz then Sunday, hopefully celebrating a victory, then I'll be chilling out on Monday...hopefully not too hungover, might have a few coffees, maybe give a wander into town, watch some movies. Eat some junk

One of me mates got fraped with "I'm a born again Virgin!"

I really really want to write "you would have to be born a few more times before you'll get your virginity back I'm afraid!"..

But I won't write it, coz I'm nice..
I'll share it with ye lot though...ye lucky sods!:pac:

D'Agger

Won our first round of championship yesterday by 11 points so fairly happy with that, went out and had a feed of porter for myself, sadly I took the sensible option and was in bed by half 1 but feeling miles better for it this morning

Hows all your BH weekends going?

The Black Oil

Lovely day here. Going to head for a run shortly.

Bummer.. must be fair demoralising to have something like that come back to you after all the work you've put into everything?

Panthro

It was 19 Degrees at 8am this morning, walking into work at 7.30am...sweating.
My body was all kinds of "Whatinthenameajayusisgoingonherelike?!"

The Black Oil

Jeez, that sounds mad, Daises. What happens next, they resit or you have to teach them again to bring them up to standard?

Panthro, at least Canadians use celsius, eh?

D'Agger

Ugh slept in this morning, 25mins late

That said I'm not surprised given how relaxed I was yesterday, watched 3 movies and ate a large dominos to myself on the couch

How's everyone?

I'm gonna make them do a resit and have a chat with them. I purposely was not specific with what I wanted them to do because I wanted them to think for themselves!

Poor daises, between that and the plagarising

Morning all! I hope everyone had a fab weekend, the weather was fabulous! It really makes a difference, even just wandering round town is suddenly amazing

I came in here to be cheered up ansd you bring that in here too?!

I am distraught right now! The man is a legend!

D'Agger

Call me insensitive as a Liverpool fan but hasn't this day been coming for a while now? I do sympathize by all means it's a massive loss to the Premier League, interesting times ahead re: whoever follows suit - end of an era.

grames_bond

I dont think its been coming for a while - honestly I thought he had 2 or 3 more years in him! I think theres something more than we know behind this! The hip op may have given him the final push to pack it in! Would have thought he wanted one more CL!

Still is a legend - and a massive loss to United and the Premier League as a whole! (Although with Jose coming back to Chelsea there'll still be some interesting interviews!)

Liam McPoyle

I want Jose for United, Moyes, I like, but I dont want him in the hot seat.

It's a bad sign that I know who he is, isn't it?

Bate aswell despite having no training this week, can't wait to head home this evening already.

Ordered two books and really want them to come so I can start them already....which is odd because I don't read much

Liam McPoyle

I don't know though....I mean, every year he was being asked if this was his last year - and especially after they hit 19 titles, I'm sure he figured he'd go one better, finish the job he came to do and finish on a high.

I'd say that'd be a good read, amirite? Love autobiographies!

Ordered The Great Gatsby & 1984 (Orwell)

Found 2 jobs in London I would LOVE. Typical, straight after I decide to stay a second year.

I haven't read either of those D'Agger (:o) but I did see the trailer for Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby film coming soon. It looks a-mazing! Visual feast for the eyes

Either have I - the movie looks class, soundtrack too, Luhrmann should do a good job with it but I want to read it myself before I see it.

Have only read Animal Farm by Orwell so been meaning to read more of his stuff....Steinbeck too

Reading the book beforehand is probably a good idea, after the movie you'll only visualise the movie when reading it - probably. Might have to do the same myself That's if I ever finish Strumpet City, about 2/3 of the way through. Started reading it at the start of April :rolleyes: I'm not normally such a slow reader but haven't been spending much time at it recently.

Where does all the time go?!

Ya really don't wanna know...there's an endless amount of stages! But y'know prehistoric art - all those sun symbols and things you see, kids all over the world all go through the stage of drawing those in nearly the same way, which I thought was pretty cool tbh.
