  1. Like I say, presume there’s more to it and he looked like or was known to carry out such things so they’ve made a preemptive call to prevent him , but what if he was just coming back from the shop and just happened to be there with eggs?
  2. A lad has been arrested for holding eggs . not for throwing or attempting to throw, just for having eggs as the funeral cortège went past . can only think the police knew him and thought he was going to throw them, but still, arresting people for what you presume they may do is a slippy slope . Presume there’s more to it, but the report is simply for having eggs https://www.thenational.scot/news/21378027.aberdeen-man-arrested-allegedly-spotted-carrying-eggs-near-queens-coffin/
  3. It is very poorly signed . any other contractor would be on 2hr defects from the council highways if did similar. Seem to accept lower standards off their own , or at least don’t push the defects as hard
  4. I usually go straight across and up by Thornleigh through Oldhams and over Bar lane. not sure how much it saves but it’s better than sitting in the queue as far back as Lidl . not at school times though obviously. they reckon the works will reduce that right turn time too, but we’ll see .
  5. I don’t know but wouldn’t think so Probably the taxi man .
  6. No involvement in that as a whole but was in the initial prep works , it’s junction re modelling to create a dedicated right turns, for moss bank way to Blackburn rd mainly . Improve safety and traffic flow along with better pedestrian routes.
  7. Yeh not sure who was on Crompton way last week to be honest . if you mean the Thicketford rd junction. this is a handy site, if you ever need to know , all works uploaded to this , you can get contacts and reasons along with expected duration https://one.network
  8. Condolences on your loss mate.
  9. Most road works done in holiday time where possible and to be honest that’s a pain in the arse . Not all things can be though , but, to be fair, Bolton council are one of the best ( or worst dependent on which side you are on ) at insisting it is . lot of things you won’t see any difference at all from one day to the next or even when it’s finished due to the work being under the road and sometimes the council don’t get a choice either
  10. Only you could argue that the queen dying would have a positive effect on the nations morale . you are either mr positive or an argumentative cunt 😁
  11. Going to be a further blow for the country’s morale in what’s already going to be a difficult winter

    Would never laugh at abuse of refs, but this topic reminded me of a time I took an u11 team to play Whelley Alexander in Wigan years ago. as was often the case, coaches reffed . Their coach was reffing and one little scrote of a player of his team was effing and blinding at the ref, that’s a “fucking joke ref “ “ are you fucking blind” etc , ref shouts at him, if you don’t shut up I’ll get Jason take you off doest listen, ref gives a throw in to us that this little lad doesn’t agree with, shouts out “ yer a nob head ref that was ours” Ref says “ right that’s it , Jason take billy off sub him for Charlie , had enough of his cheek “ little scrote then says “ aww Dad “! 😁

    Was on a local pitch in the summer having a friendly, pitch next to us was having a 3 way round robin, I’d say u7 but certainly no older than 8. while the kids were playing, some balloon was shouting over to the coach on the opposite side, the coach waved over with possibly the mouthy gesture , next thing this balloon is on the pitch doing the pavement dance “ cmon then “ in the middle of the kids , others had to go on to keep apart an the teams playing got taking off crying while balloon had to be restrained and dragged off. due to age of my kids, been involved in kids football constantly since 2002 and still am , have seen loads over the years but nothing as bad as that .
  14. Transmission volt drop . which would also be a good band name I think .
  15. Is anyone else cautiously optimistic about the rumours of price freeze deal? @Spider mentioned it a bit back and seems to be doing the rounds as a rumoured plan. the difference between Labour and Tories plan is how to finance it, ( basically) , windfall tax v taxpayer , there are pros and cons for each ( I know that doesn’t fit on here !) but so long as there is a freeze , the costs don’t spiral and there’s certainty in what you’ll be paying that’s got to be a good thing.
  16. All this talk of chip pan fires . good excuse for this safety advice
  17. Sure it was early hours in the morning as I heard it in a taxi coming home from Hawthorns as I was getting out at a girls house I’d pulled in there it nearly ruined it when she heard it , was all upset and everything. not that I was cold hearted and didn’t care like, but not just at that moment .
  18. It’s the same thing as these name a star gifts. pick a star, name it after, say your friends newborn , you get a certificate with a position saying this star is now called “Little princess Matilda “ or whatever , it’s a real star in a real constellation , nice gift and thing you can show ,but to everyone else’s it’s known as Np35696457x456b bit of something different
  19. It’s official name is City of Derry Airport so you were correct first time , but we won’t discuss why you were right on a holiday thread 😉
  20. Incompetent Tories?
  21. Jolly olly good mate of mine, reason I came on here originally was to wind him up . hes fucked all forms of social media off entirely from his life and is miles better for it.
  22. Where were you in Donegal? it’s stunning up there, hope you got the weather to fully appreciate it.
  23. Said before, but, I had a chance go to Antarctica for 12 month contract for 50k when I was 22, ( 1992)thought of the cold, no beer clubs girls or going to the match, as well as a massive dollop of bottling it about being away for so long meant I turned it down. life been good in the main really but always wonder where I’d be if I’d done that, certainly wouldn’t have been the same .
