Yup I'd do mad things like if someone did something simple Iike hold a door open for me I'd offer to pay off their credit cards and give them 5k for a nice holiday. Walk past a pub i like and stick a grand behind the bars for regulars as a thank you for keeping it open

Road closures was another one of the factors behind my decision to chuck stand up. I love the aul' death job so to get to next level in stand up I'd need to have put in the miles. Driving home on Friday and Saturday nihhts with road closures and shit diversions aots? Wasn't worth it

What are they closing? A set of temporary traffic lights has caused fucking chaos near me on Selby Rd. They clearly set them with no regard to volume of traffic or the other sets of lights nearby

When I'm.working I enjoy having "background telly" currently Gone Fishing is my "BT" of choice. I get more of a wave of sadness when I see Ted than I do when I watch something with an actor in it who's fallen off the perch (sic)

Every single sentence in this piece denotes a kind of tone-deafness and solipsistic ignorance of the rest of society that only comes to the privileged who can't understand why they are not more privileged than they already are.

I'm in the Rat and Parrot in Manchester. Hersel' drinks gin and coke and the lassie behind the bar raised an eyebrow but we're used to that. However she then went on to say that they've had people in there ordering Guinness shandy. I mean what the actual fuck

Someone needs to take a look at the pricing of non alcoholic swally We've been told for years it's alcohol duty that drives the price up. At an event at Frieght Island £28 for a bottle of non alcoholic wine
