I always look now to fly from Bournemouth if they go to my destination. Car park across the road and last time I was there, I was the only person going through security. A few extra miles to drive but a doddle to pass through.
Flew from it once. Like a bus stop with a couple of blokes with machines guns stood outside.
Strangely Kane often starts sentences with 'yeah, no'.people who use "Yes" or Yeah" as punctuation. Harry Kane does it in every interview
he used to be indecisive but now he's not so sure
Very aussie that
Straight away you've got them by the jaffashe used to be indecisive but now he's not so sure
Men with little dicks and big egos.
Very upsetting for your animals I guess. Maybe not so much for your homicidal hamster, but even so.
I recall an instance of firework related idiocy when I lived in Nuneaton; the, uh, unsavoury lot next door (who seemed to think that Kestrel Super and weed were a staple diet) decided that they couldn’t wait for the cusp of New Year to set their fireworks off, but rather, chose about 2:30pm in broad daylight to do so.
You type like you belong in Hogwarts, I doubt 'kestrel super and weed' are allowed there?I recall an instance of firework related idiocy when I lived in Nuneaton; the, uh, unsavoury lot next door (who seemed to think that Kestrel Super and weed were a staple diet) decided that they couldn’t wait for the cusp of New Year to set their fireworks off, but rather, chose about 2:30pm in broad daylight to do so.
You could hear the befuddlement, it was palpable…as each one went off, there’d be a tut of disappointment and then finally:
“These are shit, can’t fookin see anyfin!”
Only in Sunny Nunny.
I demand silence, or I’ll turn you into a badger. Scoundrel.
I had a stranger fall asleep beside me and their head rested on my shoulder. I couldn't decide whether to wake them up or not!
I’d be fuming! It’s not even really a hygiene thing it’s more of a “who do you think you are” thing. Like you have the whole are but you decide you need to come and stay in physical contact with me.
I’d be quite touched if someone fell asleep on my shoulder, under two conditions:
Used to piss me off with George Boateng. When he played for us, seemed every commentator used to pronounce it as it was spelt. As soon as he was at villa or Middlesbrough, his name was pronounced correctly as Bwateng.
Don't sit next to me on my commuter train home
Obviously I’d let you sleep on my shoulderDon't sit next to me on my commuter train home
You are lacking vowels. If it was me I would probably say the letters and then the numbers as the year 1983
Did you not hear that plank Danny Murphy trying to pronounce Deschamps during the recent World Cup? Laughable!To be honest, I was still pronouncing it ‘yokkerez’ until I heard an audio clip of it pronounced ‘yoh-shear-rez’.
My mind was sent back to when David Pleat used to co-commentate on matches, and how he’d butcher the foreign surnames whilst sounding quite amused doing so.
Also, Paul Elliot during the 1998 World Cup and pronouncing Deschamps exactly how it was spelled, with Martin O’Neill next to him cringing.
The Ndlovu reference just made me think of Ray Stubbs on Fantasy Football League, self deprecating and crooning “Peter Un-lurrrrrrve…”
To be honest, I thought it was Big Ron commentating, and didn’t realise absorb much of what he was on about. Until it clicked that is was Danny Murphy.
I suppose it is the way language and names evolve, but people bastardising the pronunciation of their own name is a real pet hate of mine. McFadzean should be pronounced McFadyan as you say. The "TH" in many names should traditionally be a T not TH (as in thong) - so it should be David CoulTARD not CoulTHARD (or CoolTHUD as that carrot-muncher Martin Brundle used to pronounce it).Used to piss me off with George Boateng.

Im a bit of a stickler for pronouncing names correctly as people get mine wrong a lot.
When my kids were mascots we asked McFadzean how to say his name, as I’d seen an old crossbar challenge where he said it as “Kyle McFadjan”.
But he just laughed and said ‘I don’t know myself, however’
A ‘z’ in any Scottish name is silent, isn’t it? I thought that, as in Menzies etc.
Yeah - semi-silent i s'pose - MING-ISS, right?
Funny when he popped up for the first time on the results teleprinter. Des Lynam was virtually spelling it out.To be honest, I was still pronouncing it ‘yokkerez’ until I heard an audio clip of it pronounced ‘yoh-shear-rez’.

Not necessarily. There's a bloke down the road whose surname is Menzies, and the z is pronounced as you read it. Menzies Campbell, Scottish politician, is pronounced "Ming". Minefield.
Yes, because he doesn't pronounce it the traditional way. But who's to say whether that is wrong or not? Only him, i'd suggest!
Who doesn't? The bloke down the road or the politician?
