Always had fond mammaries of live TV back in the day .. lot of it was filmed in Canary Wharf where I worked at the time so we'd quite often see them out filming in Cabot Square ... used to see Tiffani Bannister ( of Big City Tips fames) in the bar along with the woman who did the weather in Norwegian .. never bumped into the midget who used to present the weather on a trampoline though I think Tiffani Bannister died a few years back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could barely get signal and was before we had Sky so couldn't watch it through that so had to try and tune it the best I could to watch our UEFA cup games with a very snowy picture. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blandy Posted March 29, 2023 Moderator Share Posted March 29, 2023 A couple of weeks ago I sent off for a new passport, the next day it was in the news that the passport office are going on strike 1 April for a month. Great!, seeing as it said allow 10 weeks for it to be processed, it'll be months before I get it, I thought. It arrived today. Apart from being black instead of red, everything's good.

As its Great British black instead of unelected authoritarian European red, everything's good. FTFY Edited March 29, 2023 by sidcow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted March 30, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted March 30, 2023 Having spent most of the last week going in and out of hospital with my son, I'm now logged off work and on holiday for the next 11 days and not back in work until 12/04. Plenty of time to relax and distress and to take my son out and about to some fun places once he's 100% again. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bickster Posted April 6, 2023 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted April 6, 2023 For the last week and a half, I have been in the process of moving house. Moved from a detached house 12 miles north of Liverpool to a 2 bed duplex 4 miles south of the city centre. Apart from one day with a van, I've done it all by car. Last night we managed to get the new living room (very big) to resemble its intended purpose and not a store room. All the furniture is successfully rebuilt. The missus has buggered off to London for a long weekend with the daughter to help her prepare for a big job interview, I've been to the supermarket to get me some supplies (lots of meat, bread products and snacks), I have a car full of the last of our belongings to move (yep that'll be like that until the morning) I am home alone and it's f***ing great. Playing some dub, Sky news on silent, beer opened in front of me, lying on the sofa without a care in the world right now. No competing interests for entertainment, eat what I want when I want (yep its deffo an off diet weekend). I have lots of moving in chores to do over the weekend but tonight I'm doing sod all for the first time in ages and I'm going to enjoy the moment 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
