What is hacking you off today?

To be fair, it does feel that way. The "failure to capitalise" of Arsenal and City is even more baffling than the terrible seasons of Chelsea and United.

No one saw Spurs battling Leicester for the title 12 months ago.

Oh, it's not the fact that no team is running clear with it. It's just that "no-one wants to win the league" is both incorrect and trite. Everyone wants to win the league, it's just the usual suspects are making an awful fist of it.

(As an aside, I also dislike the common football trope of referring to "yer Arsenals, yer Liverpools, yer Tottenhams". Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham suffices. I'll take my pills in a sec.)

And while Spurs losing tonight was a blow for them, West Ham are pretty decent these days

Someone on room 101 (maybe Frank) made that point recently, but about players - yer Rooneys, yer Gerrards, yer Deegans...

Harris and Hoole Coffee Shop at Tesco Prince Avenue. We popped in for a few items and decided on a H&H cup of coffee as I had card full of H&H stamps for a free one. Her - "Oh no, we stopped doing the cards last year, you can only get a free drink now if you download our app". Me - "Can't you accept this card as nowhere does it tell me you've stopped", Her "No" (not even a sorry). Bought coffee x 2 in silence. Gave her a £20 pound note, Her - "have you got anything smaller", Me - "No, I stopped using smaller notes last year". (Childish but it had to be said).

About ten years ago I went in the Smack and told the Landlord there was a large Alsatian running around the narrow balcony above the windows.

Don't worry he said, it's my dog, he loves it up there.

Two weeks later I popped in for a pint and the same Alsatian was lying at the bar with both front legs in plaster casts............

We had a coffee and something to eat there and hubby was shocked at the price. They asked his name as he was having something heated up and without hesitating he replied "rich barsteward" Five minutes later the woman was calling his "name" to give him his sausage roll!!! Also childish but very funny :winking:

My daughter wanted a box of "Frozen" cereal yesterday - she had a taste this morning and didn't like it. Ok, £2.99 down the pan, but no problem as I'd eat it. So I have a small bowl, and now I've got the sugar rush from hell. Thank god she didn't like it - how can they sell this ****? No wonder our kids are growing up obese.

Into the bin you go.
