  1. I don't think that's the last time we've seen the clip of Mum Jones.
  2. it's a much more subjective category, the shitty trip to somewhere I've actually known people not like Barry Island, which is frankly bizarre and a sign of mental illness, but equally a town is at the mercy of the people you meet and the mood you are in Somebody in the positive 3 places named Bristol as a good place, my initial experiences of the first few trips to Bristol were awful. It literally stank and the people were aggressive. They had a zoo you needed a mortgage to enter and half the roads had road works that had no diversion signage. But since then I've been to other areas and I've really enjoyed the vibe. Similarly, Paris is fantastic but I know so many people that swear they would never ever go back. So with that caveat in mind, my 3 piss poor places are: 1. Edinburgh, dull, damp, boring, expensive. 2. Dublin, just didn't get into the spirit of it I guess, it was just a slightly run down working city. Perhaps I needed a local guide or more time or a different attitude on the day. 3. Mombasa, truly third world, but with hired thugs to keep the poor away from the tourists' dollars.
  3. top 3 is a tough call and probably depends on mood, because right now I've got: 1.0 Kynance Cove in Cornwall - I suspect that it can be rammed with tourists at the wrong time of the year, but when we visited it was almost deserted but with the café open. Spent a whole long hot day in and out of the water with the kids building intricate sandcastle moats and walls. Home made pasties and tea for lunch then hunting lizards on the long walk back to the car. Possibly the best day ever. 2.0 Fethard on Sea, County Wexford - very similar story to the first one, a long hot day on a deserted beach and crystal clear waters. This time we were the only people on the beach and saw nobody else all day. Local sausages cooked on a disposable bbq then walk back to the cottage for a hot bath. 3.0 Barry Island - and pretty much the same story again, sat on a board out in the sheltered waters of the bay with a coffee watching my kids practising their sea swimming and board skills for a competition the next day. Just sublime. Ask me next week, it'll be 3 city breaks.
  4. personally, I think the combo of us being away and Cardiff now having a real losing mentality gives us a great chance of 3 points 1:2
  5. ha ha, just had a very similar conversation...
  6. The One Show too, don't forget the One Show
  7. superb, well done so totally chuffed ooooh here we go, family reunion blub time
  8. Rugeley won't celebrate until he's had the urine sample results
  9. we all know she'll be bought by a Man City messageboard in the summer
  10. bloody hell bloody bloody bloody hell
  11. bum to sn0w, home you go and another bum to snow.......
  12. she's straight on VT on her phone!
  13. very very very very very total best of luck and a brilliant day tomorrow
  14. and that cost doesn't even include research and development of the next generation of untraceable drug trickery
  15. The problem as I see it, is that I can't change enough light bulbs in my house, or wear enough jumpers instead of flicking on the heating to compensate for yesterday's Olympic fireworks display, or for that matter the one in London on New Year's Eve, or the next Grand Prix or one missile attack on something or other. If world governments aren't taking it seriously yet, why should I?
  16. we could.............buy it then they could remember their current position as 'the good old days'
