I only got the London ones as we'll make more of a weekend of it no way I'd pay over the odds to a reseller.
Thankfully we got NFL tickets we wanted following the process, but they too sold quickly and we're being resold at a higher price.

Online ticket touts. Scum. The other week I planned to buy tickets to Foo Fighters for next summer. They went on sale at 9.00 and, due to work, couldn't get to book them until 9.30. By which time Manchester had sold out and loads of tickets were already being resold at 4 times the original amount. I managed to get 2 tickets to one of the London gigs, but only just. Still, will make a great Christmas present for Master Epworth as it's his favourite band. (Just don't tell him if you see him 🙂) That message meant to say GLAD you managed to get some, Eps, not "haha" - I absolutely f***ing hate this phone and its autocorrect, it's a crock of sh*t. Apologies if that "haha" came across as disrespectful, mate, I really didn't mean to type that. I need to take my time when posting and check every bloody word before I click 'post'. f*** off, Samsung.

No worries, gazz. I've got a Samsung, too. It tends to add g's to sentences all the time. AI is definitely still in the future for them 🙂

Hidden as it's related to my visit to the cinema last night to see the Bond movie 'No Time To Die'. {SPOILER ALERT - CLICK HERE TO REVEAL SPOILER} Being incredibly f***ing pissed off at some cheeky bastards who, after inheriting something incredibly special that made a massive difference to me while growing up, go and p**s all over it for the sake of their vanity.
What the f*** have you gone and done?
I had to say something on here to help vent my spleen, but that's all I'm going to say, because it's all I really can say.....for now.

Hidden as it contains my opinion of the Bond movie 'No Time To Die'. {SPOILER ALERT - CLICK HERE TO REVEAL SPOILER} Cary Fukitupunaga - what a complete and utter c***.
Hollywood is full of tw##s like this guy, telling us what's right and what's wrong, what we can applaud and what we can't - what happened to freedom of choice and being left to use our own f***ing moral compass?
f*** off, you utter tw##, fingers crossed someone comes along and decides to cancel YOU.
Also Daniel Craig, he can't f***ing wash his hands of this, because he signed up to do that sh**show. As of now, the James Bond series ends when Pierce Brosnan left - what came after no longer exists.

Midweek games. Dashing straight out of work, shovelling a bag of chips down once back in Stockport and not back home until turned midnight followed by an alarm at 4.45 to be in work at 7.30. The days of stopping up all night followed by a quick shower and dressed for work are long gone.
I'm told that I've reached a time of life when the kids are grown and making their own way in the world is some kind of paradise. b*ll*cks! Galloping middle age is not what it's cracked up to be. In fact it's f**kin' sh*t because whilst the spirit is willing, the body is increasingly inclined to shout "Ya can f*** off if you think we're getting up on the same day we went to bed/climbing that mountain/opening another bottle of red, etc".

I'm with you on that, mate. I work 12-hour shifts and I'm starting to feel like I need at least 24 hours rest between each one now! Some days I feel ok, like I'm mid-30s or something, walking down the street or through a shop feeling like I'm still in my prime. Then, when I see my reflection in a shop window or mirror, just before that crushing moment of recognition, I say to myself: "who's that old b*****d over there?"

Hahahaha yeah, the first time I realised something was amiss was when I was stood in the building society in Hazel Grove and wondered what the bright light was. Looked up and discovered that it was the light reflecting off my slap in the security camera. Gave me quite a shock lol

Some of us fight galloping middle age by moving to foreign country, losing over 20 kgs, getting divorced via email and then finding a lovely señorita to fall in love with!
I can recommend it most highly!

Personally mate I prefer Ibuprofen, makes me feel better when they take the pain in my knees and dodgy shoulder away and I don't have to talk to them or take them out for a meal. Or maybe I'm just a grumpy old f***er lol

That Halifax advert with 'Stand by me' by Oasis as its tune.
Who the actual f*** thought it was a good idea to include a tearful dog owner saying goodbye to his Dog while it's being put down?
Is there nothing f***ing sacred left in this world?
