Hang on. I'll get a WAAAAAAAAAAAY going.
*deep breath*
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
Your turn, Giggles.
Offy, Offy, Offy!
Oi! Oi! Oi!
When I say Ital, you say Aussie!
Ital!
Ban-ter! Ban-ter! Ban-ter! Ban-ter!
Doing the 'Ale Trail' from Manchester to Huddersfield today for @Baz's 30th.
My flatmate has already asked 'it's ok to just have a half right?'
LADS LADS LADS.
I've got what amounts to my 'stag' this weekend.
What you doing?
Best man is coming and bringing another lad I know with him and we're going for a few pints down the road. I didn't want to cave on having anything but it's acceptable.
You'll be naked and strapped to a pole before 10.
I ended up organising mine because my best man was useless. He managed to get everyone to London so I'll give him that.
I think he's going to ask me to be his soon as well.
"Guys, we're going to Portugal!"
I'd be a good one as far as organisation for the wedding went, but I'd never do it as I hate all the other shite that goes along with it like stags and speeches. If I was ever asked I'd say no again.
When's the actual day Giggles? Don't you have about 400 people coming? Fair play distilling the stag down to that many. Wish I could have got away with the same.
Going to the rum festival in Glasgow tomorrow, fucking great timing with the football. Staying at my mates in the South Side as well. Imagine if it turns out he was actually John.
Have you not met him before?
Nope.
I've got to move out by 10am tomorrow, but can't move in to the next place till midday despite them both being uni accommodation. Part of me thinks it'll be a good way to get to know the neighbours, but the sensible part knows I'll end up lying in the sun because they'll all be Chinese.
Going over to see the folks, the dog and the little nephew. Hopefully the dog doesn't hate me still. He just barks at me like I'm about the steal him.
Oh right.
Edit:![]()
Currently at a Centre Parc. First time. Not bad.
...And Giggs, I wish you well for your wedding.
How come such a low key stag doo? Any strippers?
God no, not my scene.
Was just low key because I dread going to stags so at least this one I'd some control over it. I ended up staying on the stout for 11 hours and died a death until Monday evening.
Got a Polish bloke coming to pick up a cabinet we don't want later. Not going to bother getting tooled up like MJ.
Remember me.
I've figured out this dog and the bairn is being awesome and chatty. I'm on salmonella watch after me dad's cooking, mind.
How much is the going rate for Taxis for folk on here? Some sweaty nonce tried to charge me £40 yesterday from Dundee to Carnoustie (12 mile) and refused to keep the ticker on after I dropped someone off about half way through the journey. It was £13 or something at that point. Ended up locking the doors when I said that's a minimum of £10 more than it should have been.
Needless to say once I put the two £20 notes down on the dashboard I picked one back up and shot off.
I paid €28 home from the city center last weekend. It's normally closer to €40. The taxi man was an Indian in a full suit.
Depends where I go. Local town centre is under a fiver![]()
Most of the time there's a group of you or they just ask for money before you get in but it was the fact he turned it off half way, the cunt.
I must spend hundreds and hundreds on taxis a month. Sheeeeeeeesh.
The transport links are great in Brighton, plus its fairly small, so I think I've only taken about two or three taxi rides in my time here. Not enough to know roughly how much things cost.
In Jersey because the taxis were charging silly, silly amounts they've been undercut by 17 year olds. There's a Facebook page where you just post the details and then some kid comes and picks you up. You can go anywhere on the island for about a tenner. Anywhere close a fiver.
Only Taxi I take is from my home to Luton airport now and then.
Black cabs at the airport charge £40, Hitchin taxis charge around £30-£40 but a Luton company we use only charges £23 (£20 for the journey and £3 to cover the parking fee).
The guy taking us to Luton airport the other week was a Pakistani guy who was pretty much begging me to vote for Labour.
I was just like you until 4 years ago, I didn't vote but now I do. What are you, 27 ish?
Close, 30.
Yeah, just like I was. Just vote and tell people that you haven't, do it. Just vote for Corbyn.
...
Mate, you've got to. Vote, it's great.
I didn't have the heart to tell him that I wouldn't be in the country even if he had persuaded me.
I probably spend £20-40 a month on Ubers, depending on what I'm up to. It's so convenient
I have to get a taxi home every time unless I'm in a gaff afterwards and get a bus in the AM. Pretty shit.
I didn't tell you guys about me getting banned from Luton Airport, did I?
Go on...
Tomorrow. I'm about to sleep.
K. I'll wait here.
Technically my weekend starts now. Bloody funeral tomorrow the day before travelling down for our flight.
I know none of you give a shit or know what it is, but I fucking love the gaaaaa on a day like this. Big weekend, good weather, class stuff.
It's been great just to get out in this. Wish I had some drink in.
