16 months in jail and he's out after a quarter of his sentence? Why? because its legal theft.

Are you "The bright young thing?"

It's more like silly old sods who's got too much money and they buy chopped onions and chopped carrots in a bag. They shop in one of the most expensive shops in town, and then go home and complain,(but saying that they always complain,because they have not got any thing else to do)and say how much money they have spent and it weren't like it in my day!!!

Rod Stewart springs to mind!!!!!

Who the ---- are Nervo? and Knox? Do the shop in M and S?

Here Here I second that!!!!!!

Nimrod,No need to get personal,why would I want to shop at Primark for heavens sake.I am not a toe rag!!You may frequent the place but I certainly don't

Ps, and have less of "ill mannered".You ought to know better at your age.

Calm down dear, its only an observation !!

Just had the misfortune to go into M and S and couldn't believe how long it took to do some shopping. People seem to be on a different planet,they walk about one mile an hour block all the isles and stop and stare into space as though waiting for some devine inspiration.They get on the escalator as though its going to do them harm and then when they get to the top STOP in there tacks and again devine inspiration comes into play!!Never come out of a shop so frustrated, I had to call to the nearest battle cruiser to have a sneck lifter to calm my nerves.

I always wear a top hat when I go out,as you can see from my photo!!! lol

Why do Subaru car owners think they are like formula one drivers,and why do there cars have to make so much noise!!There's an idiot on our street who as one and I can here him coming from 4 streets away!!There should be a law against all the noise they make.

The shop lifters used to hold up their loot to the window from outside to see if you wanted to buy anything. Brought a new meaning to 'window shopping'!!!

I remember going in on a Sunday night and they used 2 have a sing song with a chap on the piano,I'd be 17 then and felt really out of my depth,drinking with all these "old people"That would be in 1971

As anyone got any stories of the characters that frequent this pub past or present?

I haven't got 2 turtle doves,but have got a partridge in a pear tree if that helps?

Nice one Alco,this made me chuckle!!!

Just returned to Manchester this morning (terminal2) and once again the biometric machines were ALL out of use.

They have spent all that money on this new system,but cannot be bothered to implement it.

Came back last Tuesday from Turkey and the self serve machines were turned OFF with tape across them,thats in terminal 1.

I travel through Manchester airport quite often and I have noticed that on my return, the new passport control for those people with the new type of passports that should make it quicker are always closed.This has happened the last four times I have been.The length of time it takes to go through to get your bags is a joke.I'm sure they do it on purpose!!!

Just come back (yesterday)5 Turkish lira for a bottle of efes in Altinkum.Wish I was still there!!!!

Thomas William as gone to the great boozer in the sky,he'll be playing crash with all the other Darnall hero's, Puggy,Jim Braishaw,Colin Kershaw,Piggy Norton,Walt,and all the other stars 2 many 2 mention!!!!!

Here's Johnny!!!

Had a *pork*sandwich from King's on Dixon lane on Saturday,£2-75 I had one bite and through it in the bin!!!!Seemed to me like spam and not a proper pork sandwich which had been roasted.Don't know if it's changed hands but had one a couple of years ago and it was brilliant.
