There you go, assuming all men are these shallow, degenerate creatures who have no interest in conversation, friendship and non-physical attraction. It's very hurtful.

You are a misandrist dinosaur who needs to evolve and get with the 21st century.


No sugar in mine. Ta.

I am indeed. TBF, i have been on bike forums for 20+ years so I have read a lot of those opinions! (And my mum told me was too fat, laughed too loudly, had too big a smile/grin - when I was 16 ish - that didn’t help much )

Oh and I worked with those sort of people for years.

But, I’m learning it’s all about confidence and mines coming back

They are fairly picky about what they'll buy.

After scanning bar codes on a couple of dozen books, and being offered nothing for several, I've just deposited a heap at a charity shop.

And I'll give away others.

Yeah, I probably took as many to Oxfam and put some in the bus stop library. I've got a pretty good idea what makes it onto the shelves at Oxfam. The money from WBB usually goes in the other 'good causes' stash.

I asked a girl out once and got knocked back, she was a bigger girl and I heard later she assumed I was doing it for a dare, by the time she found out the truth I had already started seeing someone else. Looking back, the idea of asking someone out would terrify me now, I simply couldn't do it now, drunk or sober.

Thanx for writing that. Made me realise (along with another mate who doesn't live here!) that I should sometimes have more faith in myself!!

Anyway, apparently he was serious (even sober!) So I do need to believe a smidge more - just difficult when surrounded by young fit women, why would anyone choose the opposite?!

My goodness, I hope SWHMBO does not read this....the absolute sexiest gurl i ever had relations with (apart from SHMBO```````````` was quite comfortable...chunky)

I dunno, 16yo Noggin sounds a lot better than the various teenage prototype chavettes I ran about with back in the early 90s.

C'mon. We need pics of Noggers when she was even sexier.

(Lots of lads getting the Andrex Tissues ready)

Spanish tea! I now see the merits of bringing your own tea bags when going abroad. I only drink tea and sparking water so don’t have coffee options. So slap my thinghs and call me Twinnings Tai!

Spanish and salt. They put far too much on everything!

People who say 'atherlete' when they mean 'athlete'.

(LOL. Even spellchecker thinks atherlete is OK. ).

My wife gets annoyed when people say immejetly instead of immediately. Now she’s pointed it out I can’t help notice how many news presenters etc do.

As you wish TaiTea. *slap

I've found Twinings Everyday suit me best when traveling, that's after many years of trying different brands.

And why is it you can only buy that quintessentially English brand of tea, Lipton, over in forrin lands?

Look at Taipan's tea and be suitably greatful.

I get people to bring over big boxes of Yorkshire Tea, and every trip back to blighty I always fill every spare orifice with the stuff. And I'm not even really into tea that much.

In les supermarches, hotels and restaurants you either get those tiny liptons things or acres and acres of insipid herbal and fruit teas. I wouldn't even consider ordering tea in one of the numerous Salon de Thé, it's just fashionable nonsense. Green tea and macarons FFS. I'd rather have a pint of Starbucks mediocre 'coffee'.

Liptons were Scottish.

(It's now part of that soap powder lot, Unilever. We get PG Tips instead ).

Liptons were Scottish.

So, they were forrin, too! All makes sense now.

Inconsiderate dickhead drivers…

I pulled up at a regular bottleneck and rather than press on, I flashed out a car stuck in a side road who promptly stalled. As I waited for him to get started and move on, three dickheads behind me decided to overtake me rather than be patient for a further 10 seconds.
