My sarky comment about smoking stemmed from recently seeing some teenagers who were not able to last a 15 minute train journey without having to light up on the train and then gave shitee to anyone who asked them to put it out.
To be fair I find that the young players on here are pretty motivated and as fired up about gear as any of the others.
I tease about the footie, but it's only because it gets way too much media attention. I like football , but would prefer to play than to watch. (I'm not any good - just always enjoyed a kickabout)
I dont envy anyone doing exams this week - been a bit hot and stuffy.
I managed to break my arm the week before the exams and had to dictate all mine ( O levels). Got asked to spell every other word too - it was wierd!
haha, that's awesome. i love how (a lot of, not all to be fair) smokers think their rights to smoke because of self-inflicted addiction overrides everyone else's rights not to feel like they can't breathe.
agreed about football... a lot of the time it feels like every other sport is second class.
sucks about o-levels... must have been surreal. i sprained my ankle just before my a-levels (not the same, it healed in about a week), but i felt like a right tool going into the exam hall on crutches. the sympathy of my mates (bursting out laughing) helped a lot too, obviously.
:lol:
