Hijacking threads is how I made my name here.
Off topic items = yep about 95% of my posts have nothing to do with football. Probably as I am not an expert.
:-( Sorry.

How dare you, f? I am the great evil afflicting AWIMB. A couple of people who hardly ever post said so, so it must be true.Quote:

I do wonder why? Sure we've all had heated debates and disagree on different things. But you don't strike me as a bully type character looking for his next scalp.
Tbf I would rather have had lasagne on the plane today.
Thing is there is not much to say about Arsenal these days.Quote:

You would have to ask them, f. I am aware that my political views are not to everyone's taste and can be a little brusque when roused, I will admit, but I am certainly not the rabid beast some seem to suggest. Equally, some people do like to insult and needle me and then cry foul when I hit back. :shrug:Quote:

Yes. Odd one, that. Thing was, as far as I was aware, mm and I had got on fine for ages on here. Not bosom buddies or anything, but not especially antagonistic either. Then he became convinced I was modd and got quite odd about it, causing me to defend myself robustly. :shrug:Quote:

Still ate it, mind.Quote:

I usually quite like the airline breakfast sausage thing, but they can indeed be horrendous.Quote:

Indeed. If it were all that great, it wouldn't have gone extinct in the first place imo. I'd prefer it if they re-introduced wolfs.Quote:

One knows so little of the Antipodes, m. It is a source of much regret. The people, I believe, are absolute savages, but I hear tales of unspoilt vistas and vast empty spaces.Quote:

Depends on the aircraft. A number have a downstairs - an area of the hold accessible from the passenger deck.Quote:

That's a good point, actually. So many people make the mistake of moving the meat around the pan. Just let it sit there to build a crust, ffs!Quote:
