German Market

Now we have a German market in the centre of town, selling Frankfurter's, German beer and all sorts of other Germania.

I wondered what the good burghers of lets say Gelsenkirchen would think if an English market turned up in their main square.

Two dodgy lads selling carpet cleaning stuff for not £10, not £5, just £2 with a free curtain magnet thrown in. The stall selling counterfiet 60s music, a stall full of dodgy BHS seconds, the plastic trainer stall, the grocer shouting something unintelligible in a loud booming voice. An ice cream van, after all its only minus 3. The what a load of crap ornaments for 50p stall, manned or should that be womanned by upto 5 old ladies who just gossip all day and call everyone love.

The Germans would be confused.

Dont usually bother and get bored very quickly, but this is highly addictive and is driving me mad.

Frank

This hard hitting article appeared in todays Sunday Times. It does not paint him in a good light at all.

Ricky Hatton

Now i wish him well as he is a blue and a Manc, but the hype suuounding this brawl is ridiculous. In fact it has pissed me off so much i have turned my TV off, him and that Yank clown seem to be on very channel every five minutes acting like kids.

If they want to fight each oher to prove whatever they want to prove just get on with it in a car park in downtown Timbuktu or something, just fuck off from my TV screens.

Needless to say, I will not be watching the fight, I would rather watch Ronaldo in his undies leaping around like a frisky Salmon ..............and thats saying something folks.

Beggaring belief

Im a member of a City forum called Bluemoon and over the years i have seen some quite extraordinary threads on there. Today it surpassed itself. There is a thread congratulating the King of Thailand on his birthday. I have refrained from replying and giving the members the benefits of my wisdom on the matter, but fuck me what do they think they are doing.

Then to even shock me more, the offical City website has a Happy Birthday to the King notice as well. Now i know our dodgy crook of an owner is Thai but this just makes us a laughing stock in my book, we are fast becoming everything we slagged the rags off for.

All this on the day one of the lads had it confirmed that there will be no kids xmas party at City this year.


Priorites for you.

Teddy Bears and trouble

Now i have some sympathy for the woman who named the teddy bear Mohammed, but surely she was not that stupid that she did not realise the offence it might have caused. Its not like she was a casual visitor or tourist, she worked there for pete's (not saying god as not to offend) sake and therefore she must have been aware of what offends.

Anyway silly woman, storm in a teacup really, glad she is home and safe.
