Random musings and general banter.

You sense Mike realises it’s a load of rubbish though

 

[Jazzydrury]

He gave himself a electric shock lol

 

[Slipalong Trevaskis]

To me, it looks like he enjoys the challenge of selling the crappy stuff, but I am sceptical when he always makes out the items are flying out, selling out fast and so on.

My Dad was entertainments manager at Spurs in the early 1970s. He used to bring me in to White Hart Lane on a Sunday morning when he did the ground’s bars stock taking. The place appeared to be completely empty other than for me and him. I stood on the pitch with the whole of the empty stadium in front of me. And I still ended up supporting Crystal Palace!!

Sensible choice. Spuds, no thanks.

I come from Hornsey, so Highbury was slightly nearer than White Hart Lane. Palace had a better strip in 1973/74. The Barcelona type one with the player’s number on the side of each arm as well as on the back of the shirt. It was essentially an aesthetically motivated decision and clearly not one based on footballing logic.

Mike Mason's BS Bags.

Cheap lightweight nylon, not a real duffle bag. If you start stuffing towels and groundsheets etc into those outside straps as the mouth suggests I can see them breaking quite quickly.

A tenner?

No fanks Mike.

Er, what's wrong with Spurs?

Highly entertaining and attacking style by tradition and again now.

I don't understand the hostility towards Tottenham or at least I hope I don't.

Yes, I love my team but I also like free flowing football whoever it's played by.

 

[Jazzydrury]

I’m a Leeds fan, but don’t hate Spurs, even though they have Harold Bishop as manager

 

[Lord Helpus]

He's a character in Neighbours right?

That's funny, so is the way he sniffs when he talks but he is a great manager.

Somebody behind the scenes went to India with her, I bet they required therapy on return

A good quality pair of noise cancelling headphones would be cheaper

Yes

 

[Lord Helpus]

Oh dear.

£80 for a pillow with two humps on it?

Unbelievable.

Not BS but more CS (camel ****).

About time in my eyes

 

[Lord Helpus]

Another load of old tut…How does he motivate himself to sell the sort of stuff you’d still have boxes of at 12 noon at a car boot sale? The high fee probably helps.

He just packs it all in his van and finks "I'll do better tomorrow" a la Del Boy.

totally and thats great for the channel and he can easily replace a certain creepy guy TBH

 

[Jazzydrury]

One Thing Joe I can’t see him doing the hard sell, Can see it being more fun

Trouble is, if you don't accept everything about today you are accused of being out of date, luddite, living in the past.

Only recently a "millennial" told me everything about modern life is better than in the past.

What? I said. Can't find a dentist, can't get a doctor's appointment, call centres, no Bobbies on the beat, dire auto tune sampled music, unfunny woke comedy to name a few!

Not to mention lack of community spirit. Oh I just did.

Instead we must embrace EVs and AI and every innovation without question. After all, we baby boomers had it easy didn't we? Houses were given away with cornflake packets. We didn't have to work hard or save.

Yeah, sure.

I was chatting to an intern in my office the other day. I was telling her I had never been on a long haul flight and she was utterly shocked. When I was a child our family holidays were in a caravan in Clacton (which I loved), she went to Florida as a young child. Not much difference there.
