Ask them if they have a Sure-Grip Suck Machine.

No I'm not going to get myself banned. You lot are useless when it comes to stuff outside of Football.

I know loads of stuff. Just ask me about 5ive or the actor that played Lurch in the original Addams Family TV series.

I tell you, I got my first public semi for at least 5 years today. Not even joking.

I know about S Club 7, Kylie, ancient & medieval history, biscuits, Horatio Nelson, Anchorman, and the movies of Nicholas Cage.

by sodhat Tue Jun 10, 2014 12:31 pm

I get public semis relatively frequently, but then I don't have a regular outlet for killing sexual desires presently.

I should add closed and disused London Underground Stations to my list of things to ask me about.

And I know quite a lot about asbestos.

by Azzy Tue Jun 10, 2014 12:33 pm

Where did the word asbestos originate?

by sodhat Tue Jun 10, 2014 12:34 pm

That's a question on the English language and as such I shan't dignify it with an answer.

by Azzy Tue Jun 10, 2014 12:42 pm

What is the most common use for asbestos?

by sodhat Tue Jun 10, 2014 12:45 pm

Aside from poisoning tradesmen, it was most frequently used as a cheap and very fire/heat resistant building material. Where I work our most common locations are within fire places and chimney breasts.

You'll find a lot on pipework too, gaskets and flanges and even standard drainage pipes and roof cowls.

by sodhat Tue Jun 10, 2014 12:46 pm

This must be thrilling to read.

Sounds more of an ancient Greek word to me

by Azzy Tue Jun 10, 2014 1:35 pm

It is, it means 'unquenchable'. Like my lust for the Duchess. I am Asbestos Man!

Pipe down, nerd!

We need more clarification on each person's specialist category here. It'd be nice to clarify with you all.

by The Special Juan Tue Jun 10, 2014 1:42 pm

James Bond films, Andy Murray. Oh, also, alcoholism, shouting and being generally Scottish.

by Azzy Tue Jun 10, 2014 1:42 pm

Anyone here watch Game of Thrones last night?

by **Afro** Tue Jun 10, 2014 1:44 pm

The films of Ron Jeremy 1994-1997

by sodhat Tue Jun 10, 2014 2:12 pm

So, which one are you, Azzy?

It is pretty close. Who is the grey haired dude?

She may be flawless, but don't forget that's because she's a shapeshifting reptillian now.

by Azzy Tue Jun 10, 2014 2:39 pm

Sir Keith Mills, he was the second in command of the Olympics behind Seb Coe. A rich man and keen sailor. The other chap is Sir Charles Dunstone, the Chairman of this particular bid and also the Chairman of our Museum.

Yawn. Kate was niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

96 was a vintage year for the caber toss.

It's probably lucky that pillar obscured you. Otherwise the headline might have been something about your mast.

by FIFA Diva Tue Jun 10, 2014 3:31 pm

I've just been forced into giving 50 pounds to some charity feeds a family for a month, really gutted at that.

by FIFA Diva Tue Jun 10, 2014 3:38 pm

Technically I haven't given the money but I said I will, the deadline is Sunday but she's off Friday. Shall I "forget" to give the money? I don't think she'll ask me again.

by sodhat Tue Jun 10, 2014 3:43 pm

Who asked you and why did you agree?

by cherriesfna Tue Jun 10, 2014 3:54 pm

Give the money, I'd feel like s*** if I didn't

by Azzy Tue Jun 10, 2014 3:59 pm

Viva, you're a good person with a heart of gold. Be a good Samaritan, give the money, knob the bird. It's what Jesus would want you to do.

by sodhat Tue Jun 10, 2014 4:02 pm

That's what they want you to think though, with their pretty 20 year olds on the street campaigning for money.

They want you to think "cor, I'd give her one. If I give over £50 to help save the bees she might let me have a crack."

by FIFA Diva Tue Jun 10, 2014 4:02 pm

One of my work colleagues and she asked in front of another one who agreed to giving the money so there was enormous pressure on me saying yes. I couldn't escape like I can when I'm hounded in town by these beggars asking for charity.

I'll feel more like Poopie if I give 50 pounds, I can buy last of us remastered for that.

When she comes for the money say:

"Fifty? I thought you said fifteen. I've already bought the Last of Us remastered this month because I thought you said fifteen, I'm all out. When you really think about it, it's kind of your fault."

by Azzy Tue Jun 10, 2014 4:05 pm

Just think mate - there's some kid living three streets away whose parents only eat two meals a week so their kids can have basic meals. You can help them grow up strong and healthy, and through the inspiration you have provided they could turn into scientists who solve world hunger. Think about it. You could save our planet.

by Azzy Tue Jun 10, 2014 4:06 pm

Of course, it's easy for me to say. I have tons of money.

I bet you didn't get tons of money by giving £50 away willy nilly.

Never a truer word been spoken

by Azzy Tue Jun 10, 2014 4:17 pm

I lied btw. I've been done by the charity girls before. One gave me her number once, but I wasn't particularly keen on her. She had a scouse accent.

U still got it?

by Azzy Tue Jun 10, 2014 4:54 pm

Haha, this was about ten years ago Cherries, she'd be in her mid-30s by now. Old enough to be your mum! And no, I don't. If I did, I'd have given it to Viva years ago Smile

by FIFA Diva Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:35 pm

Thanks Azzy

by Marky Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:38 pm

Viva wouldn't date a Mickey Mouser anyway. Too much football rivalry.

by FootballLight Tue Jun 10, 2014 7:01 pm

Hiya guys

Just waiting on 4 links and then we are ready to set off next week I'm guessing? A lot of dust in my house at the moment as well.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue Jun 10, 2014 10:24 pm

am i getting my team off TM right?

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue Jun 10, 2014 10:27 pm

Also got flat out rejected by a girl

Got free tickets to the circus on Friday, asked her if she wanted to go, she said yeah I will text me and we'll sort it out, so Saturday I whatsapp her and she has blanked me flat out (cos you can see on whatsapp can't you)

I'd rather she just said no and didn't ignore me!

Chicks love to feel special, so a free ticket to a circus is probably her dream.
