In other breaking news i felt my bladder needed emptying around 4:15 am this morning,however after some deliberation i felt it was unwarranted to leave my warm comfy bed at such an ungodly hour and made the decision to hold it in till the alarm went off at 05:55 hrs.

I cracked out a cheeky 'lol'

Why do I always schedule sushi and hangover for the same morning...???

Went to sleep at 4, woke up at 9 cause I had to got to the bank, then sushi, then fucking rain, then back home to sleep... just to have a terrible nightmare (ex-girlfriend had given birth to my baby without telling me anything about it...)

Think the 2nd guy must be a fan who jumped into the picture the guy in the 2nd pic between Rothrock & Norton is Conan Lee.

[Yi-Long]

The second guy is obviously Sylvester Stallone!

[Markgway]

the guy in the 2nd pic between Rothrock & Norton is Conan Lee.

Yeah, he looks pretty much the same.

Sounds like a candidate for The Jeremy Kyle Show

I noticed not one but three parking tickets on my car recently (I'm barely driving it at the moment). I e-mailed the local council to say I didn't think this was fair because the paint on the road has almost completely worn away (there are just a few white marks left, presumabely once saying disabled) and the sign that says it's disabled you cannot see in the dark, but as there was a sign I was prepared to pay for one of them. I called today and to my amazement all three have been cancelled, with the reason "parking ticket challenge accepted"!

I was so expecting some big challenge or having to fill in some stupid bureaucratic form but just like that, they cancelled all of them. I never expected that. On occasion the little man really does prevail.

[gasteropod]

Haha, not bad mate

[bradavon]

I know. Especially as I clearly said, I was prepared to pay the cheapest ticket. Our council is usually run by a bunch of knob heads, so I never thought there was really any point even trying to challenge it.

Two of the tickets were for £70 (or £35 if paid within 14 days) and the last for £50 (or £25 if paid within 14 days). I looked it up and the higher amount is for "high level contraventions". The car hadn't moved, so why did two wardens consider it high and the last low? Surely it should be clearly laid out for them. I guess not!

Proves that it's always worth a challenge.

Off to a large function in London tomorrow,been selected as one of the representatives for my company who are up for a few awards.All expenses paid first class travel and a posh hotel but i'm dreading it,not really my scene at all and i'm wishing i had the balls to pull out

[Markgway]

All expenses paid first class travel and a posh hotel

What a fucking nightmare!?!

[bradavon]

I know what you mean Salty. They're always such a drag, are they anyone's scene? I doubt it. I used to have to spend a week, twice a year at a Birmingham NEC show. It was always super boring but I did it because due to the sheer amount of overtime it incurred, my salary that month went up by a third. Which obviously made it worthwhile.

How many days is it? First Class flight. In these economic times!

The Geek who managed to watch every film from Empire's Top 500 films of all time in just 365 days:

Damn impressive. He's the ultimate film boffin. I bet Hungfist could beat him . When this list was published back in 2008, I had managed to see 224 of the films in the top 500. I've no idea what it is now. The list can be found here:

Watching what some other fool thinks is a good film bahhhh sheep.

Especially shitty Empire lists

Nothing impressive at all in any way about that, apart from how sad that fool is. I watch far far more than that in shorter space of time, and things I acctually want to see (and not be told to see). I can get thru a whole TV series of 24 episodes in one weekend. Which would be 10-12 films in 48 hours, he has nothing on me.

Survived my London trip,nice hotel just by Regents Park,propped up the bar until 2:35 am the function itself was held at the Grosvenor Hotel and was hosted by Michael Portillo who i must admit was pretty funny...had to wear a fucking tuxedo,didn't even know how to put the bow on and needed help...

[Markgway]

You look slimmer than I expected.

why do you say that been on a diet for a long time now

[Shingster]

That's coz he's lost a shitload of weight. You look sharp in the Tux salty, can't be bad to get dressed up like Bond and go to an awards ceremony at least once in your life though. I know I probably never will!

You look slimmer than I expected.

why do you say that been on a diet for a long time now

I assume it's because you've mentioned your weight on here in the past, back when you were bigger.

[Markgway]

Yeah, but last time you mentioned your diet you were still really heavy.

Most people give up after a couple of weeks.

You have a will of iron it seems.

[saltysam]

Well i'm not that slim...i was 14 st 3.5 lbs at weigh-in on Wednesday. much better than the 20-odd stone i was though i'm very determined not to slip back to my old ways...to put it all back on again would be a waste.
