But he exaggerated bigtime on his sicknote, to get out of a world tour. Ironic, considering how much time he spends on the road nowadays. British gigs in October. I didn't even consider going until the missus expressed an interest. Then I told her the ticket price. 353 quid a head. Get to ****, Bob. EDIT: I just realised those are 'resale' prices, i.e. legalised touting. Original price was £60- £80 - which I would have paid, had I known how much Mrs M wanted to see him.

Now you can only get sticky ones, in fifty flavours of mint. This. I only like the yellow one, looks like piss and tastes like acid. Superb. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The makers say it's due to no demand for it. I call bullshit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a small-size, imitation vending machine. You stocked it up with celebration-size mini bars of Cadbury's and then paid 2p for it to vend one at a time. (Although this example has 10p, fecking inflation) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to loads of local gigs by mostly unknown bands. Plus the occasional 'big name'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last guy I knew who used regularly it was a retired Navy sailor. He swears by it. Kind of medicinally old school, like Fisherman's Friends, which are like your Victory lozenges. Also stolen and sipped by street drunks here, but few know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
