O'Sullivan just got another 147. Most talented sportsman that ever lived in my opinion. But I am a snooker fanatic, so...

His dads name, Kevin, was over the door

Easy pinks wasn’t it?

Saw it up there myself last weekend. Last year the same car came out of Temple Road every morning.

Knowles went on 'Superstars' and completely embarrassed himself.

Ray Rearden would have fared better.

Trick shots sounds about right

Down stairs was Nibblers, rough as fuck but the only place in Horwich you could get a beer after last orders

Remember as a 16 year old with no ID the door policy was:

"Are you 18?"

"No"

"Well if the police turn up hide"

There was a dark dance floor about 3m square, all the wrong uns of horwich stood round the edge looking at the birds dancing on it

One story was a lad got sucked off on it and when the lights came on he realised it was his aunty

Thought Knowles was living in The Lakes now? Seem to remember he got a domestic violence conviction against him.

Saw it pull out of Temple Rd  last week or week before last I think it was about 20 to 8 in the morning and head up towards MBP so they've been knocking around there recently.

He had a wine bar in Bowness, I think.

Great comeback from Jimmy from 0-4 down to win it 5-4! Played some vintage stuff.

Or sold on by DVLA as a cherished plate. They don’t let spelled out words go to a lucky car buyer, they make revenue from them.

When the 51 plates came out I looked at MU51CAL as a Manchester plate. I think it was already for sale on the DVLA (or DVLC) website.

The MU bit should have been enough to put you off.
