The 'Things That Are Great' Thread

[BobbyBox]

Congratulations Stef!

 

[mjsmith2k]

Well done Milanista!

 

[Jumbo_]

Well done mate!!

 

[matherto]

Trips to the beach involving blasting down the motorway to the sound of absolutely anything, with your mates singing their hearts off, having a Maccies, and then having a kickabout with a bunch of random scousers, and showing them whose boss.

 

[Nick Cave]

Wondering how I'd lost £50 quid or managed to spend £150 quid in 3 and a bit hours in a few pubs, only to find I'd dropped a £50 note at home when I was swapping wallets...

 

[crayon]

They still have 50 quid notes? What a pain in the arse to use in pubs!

 

[Milanista]

Yep... once I was changing Euros to Pounds and they gave me £50s. I tried using it at Wetherspoons and they refused to take my money.

 

[crayon]

Yup, since I had the same thing once when I came home from here and was refused also, I always ask for 20 pound notes and tenners.

Sitting in my office in the dark drinking tequila with my skylight open and no strides on, listening to Lydia Lunch and P.I.L...

YouTube - angry ANGRY BT customer! Very Funny!

 

[Nick Cave]

That's BT for you...

 

[Jumbo_]

Hahaha funny that, it's older than jaygrim and Nick put together though

 

[Nick Cave]

A little Cheer for Wrexham FC. We are officially debt free...
We own our ground and training ground and buildings too, not bad in this day and age...

 

[Mart]

Well done.

We're on our way out of admin too and our Raj is sounding like quite a sensible chairman, which is pretty scary.

Not quite at the stage of owning all the buildings etc. though but having a club at all is nice.

 

[Chris Davies]

Good for you.

We've lost four out of the five player shortlist of our players of the season, all the fans I know have completely lost hope now. We were ONE PLACE away from the playoffs last season, but now that the only decent players are getting out fast I really think we're looking at a scrap in the bottom half this season.

 

[Nick Cave]

Sounds like he's making the right noises, it does get disillusioning when you see traditional clubs on the brink, for the kind of money top players earn in less than a month...

Our squad has been decimated as well (it happens when you stop paying them). We've done well to hang on to our captain.

The administrators have been a bunch of chimps. On top of the 10 points we lost in the season (would've been in the play-offs) we lost form and the loan players we had too. We really had a chance of automatic promotion until the chairman put us into administration. He was also in line to stay in charge and bring us out of admin at one point...

Anyway, things that are great. Lower league football. Group hug.

EVERYWHERE GIGGITY

Also, I worked my last shift at Next last Saturday, usually in at half 12 till half 4, and I woke up yesterday and looked at my phone, it read 20 past 12, so the feeling of going from "OH SHIT!" to "wait....back to sleep" is possibly the greatest thing ever.

 

[jaygrim]

She would deffo get it.

I got to work this morning and found out I'd won £60 on the lottery bonus ball thing Then I got home and my 360 is back from Microsoft only a week after I sent it.

Boom!

 

[Chris Davies]

I LOVE days like that. Haven't had one of those in ages, although I got up around 6am this morning and for some reason I've found myself in a good mood since.
