Just a quote for the day:

Reporter, to Liam Gallagher: "What would Oasis have been like if there was no Noel?".

Liam: "I don't f***ing know do I? That's like saying would Jesus Christ have been a paedophile if he had a crisp packet stuck to his head".

I drove from Backwell, N.Somerset to Crawley, via Isleworth today.

I got caught in god awful traffic on the M25 today.

In a Chinese takeaway in Crawley 2 small veggie pancake rolls cost £2.40. In my local Chinese takeaway in Somerset 4 of the same cost a mere £1.50.

The 8 cans of Strongbow I purchased a short while ago has been severely depleted.
